FAR'S DEVASTATION
I POWERFULLY DEPICTED
I BY RUSSIAN WRITER
; Doroshcvitch Gives Faithful Ac
1L count of Poland's and South
Russia's Plight in "Tho
Way of the Cross"
In tho mldatof nit tho Unset ami gltimour
tho lltcrnttirn which lins emanate 1 from
Europo sines tho war began, painting In
brllllnnt reiti nntl creens tho "IlKht-hcnrt.
edness" of tho civilian-) dtirlnB their hours
of sorrow, "Tho Way of tho Cross" (O P.
Putnam's Sons. New Yorl:), Ktntuls out In
n. dllTercnt tone, challenging with Us grajr
tho rosealo hues of other tales. V. Toro
shovltch, n noted Russian Journalist, Is
tho man who has dared to describe tho
plight of a war-Btrlcken people. How ho
succeeded In eluding tho vlgllanco of tho
tlusslnn censor Is a mystery.
'Tho Way of tho Cross" presents a ter
ribly poignant picture of tho Russian anl
Polish fugitives fleeing from tho German
Invaders In tho autumn of last year. Thera
nro no charges of atrocities by tho Teuton
' hordes, no "crlmo against humanity" B
alleged; In fact, the Germans never onto"
" ifto tho narrative. Hut tho misery, tho
Brief, tho Isolation, tho desolation of tho
peasants, artisans and tradesmen driven
from everywhere to nnywhero by tho exi
gencies of a war which Is not theirs, Is
described with tho horrible rrallsm so
characteristic of tho Russian writer.
Tho author, writing In short, menacing
Ecntonccs, docs not ctop nt tho mero talo
of tho long river of hrol(en-down human
ity, whoso banks nro lined with whlto,
fresh-hown crosses. Ho assails tho laclc of
Interest of official Russia.
"Wc arc by no means a cruel peoplo,"
ho writes.
"But dreadfully cruel things happen in
our country.
""Vo can malto penal strvltudo Into holl,
and llfo Into penal servitude."
Thn nllthnp rnll.t thin Tlteturn of tho
I fleeing peasants "tho retreat of tho great
grlcultural army." "And with what, and
flow, shall wo pay for It?" ho asks.
It Is Impossible to descrlbo tho tremen
dous power of this book, which through
out Is of ono tone dull and of ono color
gray. Strnhen Grahnm has written an
Introductory noto which Is poor as lit
erature nnd worFC as an Introduction, to
Tho Way of tho Cross.'
Miss F. Tennyson Jesse, nuthor of
'Tho Milky Way." n novel, nnd "Tho
Black Mask," which hns lately been on
tho stago In New York, has published
(O. H. Doran Company), theso now short
stories of southern England and southern
Franco under ono title.
Sho has combined a stylo full of ro
mantic description nnd touched by some
thing sinister, with a naturalistic ten
dency to emphasize tho fundamental In
stincts of men and women. Mlsa Jcsso
has, to a remarkable degree, tho powor
of making over Into a part of our vcrj
consciousness tho things that sho wants
us to oxperlcnco. Her pictures nnd
sounds and feelings do not merely nppcnl
to tho Imagination, but Btrlko us with
fo forco and Inevitability of actual per
ccpts. In "Tho Great Mazo" (Macmlllan Co.,
New York), a poem In flvo parts, by Mr.
Herman Ilagcdorn, tho author has treated
a very old subject In a very new way. Ho
lias worked out the themo of Clytomnestrn.
nrsl Agamemnon In tho romantic style.
''Modern realism and description, rich In
tsound and sight pictures, have mndo tho
nnclcnt Greeks over Into rather modern
people, with tho result that perhaps a llt
tlo of their dignity Is gone. This Is no
doubt owing to their nenrness to us, as
well as to tho complexity of their feelings.
Mr. Hagedorn has remarkablo descrlptlvo
1 powers and tells tho story In a way which
. holds ono's Interest.
In tho same volumo Is published "Tho
Heart of Youth," a short play wrltNjn for
Jho boys of tho Hill School. It Is a sym
bolical piece, simplo and boyish In tone
and qui to adaptablo to outdoor staging,
R Wo havo had war books aplenty, but
j most of these have dealt with tho land
forces. In "A Tall Ship on Other Naval
Occasions" tho author, "Uartlmous," has
sent out Into tho world mi entertaining
collection of short (ales about tho British
yjavy under tho stress of wnr-tlmo comll
Jrions. Tho stories In this volume (G. P.
Putnam's Sons, Now York), tell tho llfo
of tho officers' mess nnd of the stoke hole;
they reveal tho grime ns well as chron
icle tho glory. "Bartlmeus" scorns to
know his British navy with a thorough
ness that leads ono to suspect that he Is
a naval officer concealing his Identity un
der a pen name. Tho stories have that
aure, authorltatlvo touch that makes It
almost certain that tho writer knows his
subject from tho keel up.

WHITE, OF KANSAS,
HAS GOOD STORIES
Willinm Allen White Out With
Another Excellent Set of
Short Tnles v
In "Ood'a Puppets" (MacSIIllan Com
pany, New York), William Allen Whlto
does on a reduced scalo what ho nchloved
In "A Certain Itlch Man." It Is a collec
tion of five short stories, two of them
amplo enough In motif, situations nnd
characterization to furnish forth many a
full length work of fiction.
Mr. Whlto hns n rcmnrkablo eonitruo
tlvo faculty; his dovetailing Is neat; his
beams glvo tho firmest support; his tim
bers nro stanch; his details nro related;
his use of decoration Is Just nnd economic.
So "A Social Iteetanglo" nnd "Tho Ono
a rharlsce," nro wcU-bullded, sightly,
seemly. They fulfill tho primary demand
of fiction with conflict at their baso, In
n way not dlscoverablo In "A Prosperous
rsentloman" and "Tho Strnngo Boy."
Thcpo latter two, Indeed, havo much of
tho fnmllinr essay appeal, pivoted on a
character nnd moving by leisurely descrip
tion, not tho rush of action. Whero Lamb.
Irving and Hawlhorno wcro Idealistic nnd
"conceited" In their Ilka sketches, Mr.
Whlto Is modern onough to bo realist!",
particularly In "A Prosperous Gentle
man," which relates tho life-long retribu
tion, born within nnd eating outward, of
a man. later successful in nil worldly
ways, who In his youth hns deceived a
trusting girl. It Is n Fombro Btudy In
conscience, psychologically acuta. "Tho
Ono a Phnrlseo," "dekalsomlnes" a whttod
sepulchre. Tho mngnato nnd monument
of tho town Is corrupt nt tho coro. Ho
rules town hall, nowBpapor offices, tho
banks; his tentacles reach nut to tho rail
roads, tho Stato Legislature and other
oxtcrlor nctlvltles which lnlluenco or af
fect tho community.
Ho Is tho greedy spider centred In tho
clvlo web, luring nnd consuming his prey.
Himself nnd his family nro his most nota
blo victims. Ho Is unsatisfied always;
his family nro selfish always. Callousness
and corruption bring their own worthy ro
ward In a business nnd domestic cata
clysm. This story Is chiefly valuable for
Its photographic etchings of certain social
and financial portraits. ,
"A Social BccUnglo" points nnother
moral drawn from a tnlo of current Ameri
can life, tho dangers of which nro keenly
analyzed. It tolls of a girl who Is un
scrupulous, clover, merciless. She ruins
three men, nttracted by her brilliancy.
Tho trnglo tnles preach a powerful ser
mon on tho text of fnl30 Ideals which anl
mato a certain section of Amerlcnns who
have reached social or business success.

a very ngrccablo relaxation, nnd It will
bo Just as diverting nnd Just as pleasant
to read 10 or 20 years from now ns It Is
today. This Is ono quality that distin
guishes "From Pillar to Post" (Tho Cen
tury Company, Now York) from tho ef
forts of most humorists of tho present
day. It contains llltlo or no contem
poraneous slang, with Its necessarily tran
sient nppcal, but Its fun has a more solid
foundation. Mr. Bangs tells soma of his
experiences ns a lecturer real and, pre
sumably, Imaginary. If ho resorts to
hyperbole with great frequency that fact
detracts In no degreo from tho qunllty of
his vrork. Ho only does. In this respect,
wMt nil American "funny men" from tlmo
Immemorial havo felt privileged to do,
but ho does It with a keener nrtlstlo senso
than most of them havo beon able to

When a whlto man Is called to protect

Interfere with tho Southern men's nnswer
to tho cry for protection.
Whlto men tho world over would rather
seo their women dead than In tho hands
of their conquerors.
Such a cry for protection will bring out
of degradation nnd disgrace n whlto man
who hns seemingly lost nil senso of decency
nnd respect. In "Tho Aryan," tho now Trl-nnglc-Kay

Is duo to tho lnlluenco of n whlto girl who

DORAN BOOKS
We publish today these books
of extraordinary interest
The Conquest of Amer
ica by Cleveland Mof
fett raises the important
question not so much of
our preparedness but of
our vulnerability. It is
a romance, but the form
merely serves to make
a great subject really
vital and interesting.
(Illustrated, $1,.50)
WillLevingtonComfort
tells in Child and Coun
try of the great advan
tages of bringing up a
young family in the at
mosphere and freedom
of out-of-doors. Every
man and woman will find
this book charming and
stimulating. ($1.25)
Here is a great romance
of Rialto lif e KateMc
Laurin has lived it and
knows it and knows
how to tell of it. The
Least Resistance is her
first novel, but it is sur
prisingly finished in its
depiction of the easy
way to . . .? ($1.25)
The Man and the Wo
man in Harriet Brunk
hurst's The Window in
the Fence (also a first
book) are twoof themost
charmingcharactersput
into covers in many a
day. If you can read
their deliberate follow
ing of ideals and ambi
tions without laughter
and tears and sympathy
certainly you will be
blase'. ($1.25)
Nina LarreyDaryea has
written the experiences
of a suddenly rich, clever
American woman in
Paris. If you've been in
Paris her book, A Senlv
mental Dragon,vrM re
fresh your memories; if
not it will introduce so
cial Paristo you. ($1.25)

Pioneers by Katharine Susan
nah Prichard, a $5,000 prizo

Amateur by Charles G. Norris,

brilliant first novel. Fortieth
thousand of Iroin Cobb's
screamingly funny "Speaking
of Operations " Tho tenth
fr inting of I Accuse the start
ing book on the responsibility
of Germany for the War.
Many other quite remarkable
