YOUNG PEOPLE'S WEEKLY, 1142 Wrightwood Avenue, Chicago, Ill. Weekly; per year, 75c. Editor, David C. Cook. A religious periodical for young people of 12 to 16 years, published by the David C. Cook Co., of Elgin, and subject to the same needs as such publications as Boys' World.

YOUNG PILGRIM, 160 Warren Street, Boston, Mass. Weekly; per year, $1.00. Editor, H. E. Thompson. Reports: "We do not pay for articles, except such as we buy from other publishers."

THE YOUTH'S COMPANION, 881 Commonwealth Avenue, Boston, Mass. Weekly; per copy, 5c.; per year, $2.00. Editor, Charles Miner Thompson. This periodical, while primarily for young people, is also read by the whole family. Many short-stories of American life are used, and these should not exceed 3500 words. There is a definite slant to all Youth's Companion stories, whether the theme is humorous, adventure, success, outdoor sports, or everyday life. This consists in a youthful interest and enthusiasm of approach which is essentially juvenile, but not childish. Love does not enter in, except as an accessory. But the bringing out of character and the formation of good character does. For this reason a short-story for the Youth's Companion should deal with one important incident only. Political or religious topics should be avoided, and while humor is desired, farce is not. In a general consideration of a story for this magazine, the chief test is whether the story or article is helpful in its intent. Articles should not be over 1000 words in length, and they may deal with such subjects as how to make things, or how to do things in a preferred way, how some boy has succeeded or some girl has been of help in running the home in a crisis, or something else of this sort. For its Children's Page, short-stories, singing verses, little songs and pieces to speak, games and puzzles, are required. Good photographs, which are interesting and timely, are purchased. Reports within a month. Pays on acceptance.

Religious Publications

Further than to mention the mere names and the general facts concerning these publications, among which we include even the Bible lesson quarterlies to make the list fairly representative and complete, there is little to say regarding their needs. Much of their material is offered gratis or paid for in a special way. Some of the material is obtained from writers who syndicate their own work. Quite a number of the editors_state specifically that miscellaneous contributions are not desired. Few, however, will fail to give consideration to shortstories or articles really adapted to their requirements.
