The UNWILLING VESTAL
By EDWARD LUCAS WHITE
Author of That Wonderful Historical Nveli"Ek5VS?HEBfthB
The New York Sun says : "Action'. From the flwt ord of tho
first sentence Mr. White hardly ever lets up. As a story punj
simple THE UNWILLING VESTAL is technically miles ahead of
EI, SUPREMO. Like his first novel this tale of Rome in the j .ears
behveen 100 and 200 A. D, Is related mostly by episodes. But the
tory does not lack continuity. And it has suspense s to a notable
decree, to a degree far beyond the power of many novelists to
Achieve "

The Secret of the Marne
BY
Marcel Berger
Author of "Ordeal by Tire"
I'O f.l.,111 III-1.
You remember how you seized your daily paper
with bated breath that time the German hordes were
initrchingr on Paris with the arrogance of victors?
And the glorious Marne weel; that turned victory into
rout?
You remember how the military experts were puz
zled, bewildered at the sudden German change of front
that Hanking movement that resulted in defeat?
In this daring and convincing novel, Marcel
Herger reveals the reason for this supreme blunder
so disastrous to the enemy, and the disclosure is so
plausible that the reader will be surprised into accept
ing this solution of the repulse of von Kluck's armies.
Do you read detective stories? "'Hie Secret of
the Marne" will furnish you with more thrills than
any mystery story you have read for many a day.

-oft and
dived through it. And on tin other side,
as I came through, I saw two feet away"
Mut the story is too good to tell here,
l.ct thr man who dived through tell you.
I Ic is a brave and gallant fighter, who, into
his short young life, has crammed enough
adventure to fill a thousand lives of other
days.
Roberts is an American ate. lie was
two months in the wilds of Canada before
he knew war was on. Then he heard
went straight to tlic front.
1c has been a despatch rider; lie has
been in endless bombing expeditions; he
has brought down eight German aeroplanes
for he is an "Ace." I Ic has been gassed
and wounded and shell-shocked; he was
brought down from the air four times in
four days by the Germans.
1 Ic has volumes and volumes to tell;
to tell with a humor, a sincerity, a charm
as delightful as his keen face as alert
as his slim, athletic body,
lie has packed it all
into one gorgeous,
thrilling book.
