The Ideal of Swaraj.

In Education and Government by Nirpendra Chandra Banerjee with an introduction by C. F. Andrews.
Those who are out of sheer prejudice and incapacity for political thought, sneer, at the goal of Swaraj proclaimed by the National Congress as merely a destructive and at best a visionary ideal as well as those who in spite of their approval of the goal are unable to visualise it in concrete contents, will do will to read this interesting and instructive book by an ardent Bengali patriot and ex-school master. The author has political insight, and faith in the country's capacity. He recognises that the soul of India is in her numerous villages in rural centres and has given out practical suggestions for national reconstruotion along sound lines.
Mr. Andrews has written an introduction to the volume wherein he has dealt with the value of the Swaraj ideal and his own conception of the same. It is a useful publication worthy to be placed in the hands of our young men and women.—Hindu.Price Re. 1.

India's Will to Freedom.

By Lala Lajpat Rai. A collection of Writings and Addresses on the present situation and the worst before us. "We in India should, one and all, take a vow that whether we have to lay down our life, whether we are mutilated or banged, whether our women and children are mal-treated, our desire for Swaraj will never grow a little any the less. Every child of this land, whatever his religion or persuasion, should swear that, as long as there is life in his limbs, or breath in his nostrils, he would strive for national liberty."Price Rs. 2-8.
