HARPER'S MAGAZINE FOR JUNE William McFee's great romance "COMMAND" is continued in this number THE TRUTH ABOUT DARWIN Recent events have revived old controversies over the theory of evolution and the origin of man. Unfortunately, in the discussion extending over many years, Darwin's scientific findings and his statements regarding evolution have been obscured and distorted so that to-day few people know what Darwin really believed and asserted. James Harvey Robinson sets forth the truth about the great scientist in a way to clear the air befogged by prejudice and misunderstanding. LEACOCK CONTRASTS THE ENGLISH WITH THE AMERICAN PRESS In an article of acute but humorous comparisons, Stephen Leacock declares that the differences between the substance and appearance of British and of American newspapers is caused by the fact that English readers like their news broken to them gently, while the Americans want it thrown at them like a bomb. He illustrates this theory with numerous amusing selections.
