A NEW World 



You. Have Never Seen! 



HAVE you seen the world as it looks to- 

 day? The old world no longer exists — 

 it has been completely made over — vast 

 changes have taken place in every quarter of 

 the globe. Today we are living in a NEW 

 world ! 



The greatest war in history has turned the 

 whole world upside down. It has wiped out 

 our former maps — it has altered the face of con- 

 tinents, changed the status of territories every- 

 where — it has upset the entire world situation. 



Important New Changes Everywhere 



Besides the war, there have been other epoch- 

 making forces at 

 work revising the 

 map of the world. 

 Recent explora- 

 tions, unprece- 

 dented expansion 

 in commerce and 

 industry, political 

 upheavals — all 

 have left their 

 marks in every 

 part of the globe. 



I low much do 

 you know of this 

 New World you 

 are living in? 

 Probably you have 

 seen fragmentary 



maps in newspapers and magazines showing 

 some one portion of the map that has been 

 affected, but have you ever had the whole new world of 

 today laid before your eyes so that you get a clear, com- 

 prehensive conception of just what changes have taken 

 place? 



Do you know what has been added to our geographi- 

 cal knowledge of the world by the recent explorations 

 of Stefansson, Stuck, and McMillan in the Arctic, of 

 Smuts in Africa, of Roosevelt and Rondo in Brazil? 



Do you know how commerce has opened new routes 

 of communication, built great new railroads in Alaska, 

 Australia, Africa, Asia, South America? 



Do you know how many new industrial cities have 

 sprung up as a result of shipbuilding in the United States? 

 Do -you know where the new kingdom of Hejaz and 

 the new empire of Mongolia are located? 



Do you know the 

 new Europe that has 

 come out of the war — 

 with all the changes 

 in boundaries, the 

 new nations that have 

 been born, the inter- 

 nationalized cities, 

 the territories that 

 are under plebiscites? 

 Do you know how 

 the Peace Treaties 

 have affected Africa, 

 Asia, the islands of 

 the Pacific? 



Do you know what 

 is included in the 

 territory of over a 

 million square miles 

 which was taken from 

 Germany and how it 

 was disposed of by 

 the Allies? 



The New Strap on Italy's Boot 



THERE is a new strap on Italy's 

 boot as a result of the war. The 



northern boundary has been ex- 

 tended to strengthen the natural 

 frontier — im portant readjust- 

 ments have been made on the 

 Dalmatian coast. Yet your present 

 atlas does not show these vital 

 changes. And this is only one ex- 

 ample of the many vast alterations 

 that have completely changed the 

 map of every part of the world. 

 You might better have no atlas at 

 all than one that is full of misinfor- 

 mation. But this is the last time 

 you need ever discard an out-of- 

 date atlas, for now a new kind of 

 atlas is ready for you— The NEW 

 WORLD Loose-Leaf ATLAS- 

 up-to-date noty and always.
