Reseña del editor

Excerpt from Americans in Rome
While we in America, with our war and work, are fighting along stoutly in the advance guard of the world, let us not forget that there has been a past, by which we may still profit much, though it be only by measuring from it our onward course. Such a standard may be found in Rome, which is to the present day the most living specimen of a rapidly vanishing, yet culti vated age, in existence. In this great city and its terri tories, old times still weep and smile as they did in fairy tales and pictures, until the present age of steel came to improve the world. Rome is our direct anti thesis. She is all of the past, and full of lessons, even if they be only of warning for the future.
