RAYMOND ROBINS BOLSHEVIST RUSSIA begins in the Metropolitan "I shall adopt the spirit of what you say, in something I am writ- OLSHEVISM is a fact. It has overspread Bo Russia like a torrent and is sweeping Eastern Europe. The days of ignoring it; of just calling it hard namcs are past. Now we must face it, recognize it, understand it. The American who knows Bolshevism, who dealt with Bolshevists daily, who has rubbed shoulders with the thing that is sending the world into spasms of terror, has consented to tell the story of Bolshevist Russia to the American people through the pages of the Metropolitan Magazine. Raymond Robins went to Russia for the Red Cross in the early days of Kerensky. His appointment was the result of Colonel Roosevelt's earnest plea. Roosevelt knew his man. Would they trust him? They did and Robins became the unofficial American representative to the Bolshevist group. Robins will tell the whole story-for the first time, the real facts. Grown-up America should not fear facts. It will be supplemented with reproductions of sensational documents, the existence of which has never been suspected and which light up every step of this remarkable story. It is a dramatic, thrilling narrative of adventure among the shifting and turbulent scenes of an uprising of one hundred and eighty millions of people. RAYMOND ROBINS Robins' job was to feed starving women and children. When Kerensky fell and Lenine and Trotzky rode into power it was still Robins' job to feed those who hungered. It was no time for quibbling or for politics. It was time for bread. Robins went to Lenine and Trotzky. He demanded a free field and no interference. FOR JUNE Through the story stalks the voluble Trotzky and the shrewd, capable Lenine, planning behind his slits of eyes a world in revolt. These two men Robins saw on an average of three times a week for more than five months. He learned their philosophy from their own lips. Raymond Robins' story of Bolshevist Russia, as told to William Hard, begins in the June Metropolitan and will run for six issues.

THE ATLANTIC MONTHLY PRESS, 41 MT. VERNON ST., BOSTON THE question "To Build or Not to Build" has probably been answered-answered in the affirmative. The next question is one of style and material, and these, of course, depend on individual taste and the section of the country in which the home is to be built. A great deal of consideration should be given both of these matters, for after all, the majority of people build but once and ought to build right. The houses shown next month are splendid examples of what may be done in brick or cement. One of John Russell Pope's best houses opens the magazine. It is the Tarrytown residence of Allan S. Lehman, built in the Early Enghst or Tudor style. This is the first of a new seri "Noteworthy Houses by Well-Known A tects."
