Gilbert Cannan depicts xvith keen Insight
and arth'tlc power In "The Stucco
House" the futile struggle of a soul
against an nllen environment. The strug
gle through weary, harassing years has
In It the epic quality or ancient Otee
tliama; Its course Is ns Inexltable and
ttn end ns ceitaln.
One. of the most Interesting figures
In an 'earlier novel by Mr. Cannan,
"Round the Corner," xvas the pathetic,
xvistful old .Scotchman, James Lawrle,
whose boyhood yearn were tenderly
traced In "Three Rons and a Mother"
ns little Jamie, the dreamy. Imaginative
brother of thoroughly practical, am
bitious, hard-headed fellows. The present
rrtory fills In the gap between those
earlier stories, dealing with the mid
stream of j ears of Jamie, the utterly
unworldly Idealist and Individualist,
hopelessly at sixes and sex ens with the
hostile, unsympathetic world about him
In the grimly Industrial life of the Kng
lisb town nf Thrlcshv. and inlsundet-
I itood even or perhaps; most of all
n.v in: own jaunty
The story begins Just as Jamie hi re
turning tn England from America, where
he has gone to report conditions after
the rixll War for a local newspaper.
He writes with his bend 111 the clouds,
speculatively and philosophically, nnd
only exnkes the wrath of thot'a who
want bald, statistical information He
turns In horror from the fix II War's
afternnth "Worse than all the destruc
tion of life and wealth Is the destruc
tion of spirit. A xv hole generation burn
ed nut, gutted. Thnusands and thousands;
of young men who are and always will
be xeterans. Incapacitated for Joyous
human experience because they are
(pent in this one horilble, wasteful ef
fort "
"Mad. the man's mad." comments
Jamie's tinvossfu! brother.
In biisk and businesslike Thrlgsby
Jamie flounders helplessly. The society
to which he will not conform sets Itself
tn break him He fallti In business and
In politics. His wife's impatience smol
tieis into open Irritation and resentment,
while be Muds refuge and solace among
the works of Elizabethan dramatists.
Even nt the last, after the chlldien nre
grown, he falls In hl insane nttempt
to burn down the stuccoed house which
has been tlie scene nf his foredoomed
life
Such unmitigated realism as Mr. Can
nan hero offers Is uncomfortable. But
If its acute portraiture is unflattering,
it also henrit the vital stamp of truth.
These poor human puppets are drawn
with biting humor but the drawing Is
Instinct with that pity of the gcJs that
sit aloof from the human struggle.

Arnold Bennett's War Novel
In the course of Ills latest novel, "The

tlie war brings out what there is In a
man nnd a woman. His heroine Is a
nung I'-ren'li courtesan, living In Lon
don. His hero Is nn Kngllsh bachelor of
fifty or thereabouts, who has a liaison
with tlie courtesan There are other
characters, including nfilecrs from the
front, and members of the aristocracy
engaged in war relief work The war
makes the hero devote himself to tli
lellef work with more lgor than he
had put Into Ills business, which the
war was increasing tenfold. Ho en

makes the men from the front want

It also gives to the aristocracy home oc

tlie courtesan, it induces her to devote

A Town Hears Wars Call
It Is a platitude that th'e most truly
representative American life Is to be
found In the small town rather than In
the larger cities. Surface aspects of
metropolitan life nre frequently mislead
ing, abnormal and confusingly complex.
Ilut It Is In the community of modest size
that we are most likely to discover the
true mood of tlie nation and the real
opinion of the majority. For this reason,
Freeman Tilde n h story, "Khaki," is not
only of universal interest, lmt nlso of
special moment to the city dweller, for
It will enable him to undei stand in a
way that would not otherwise be possible
the evolution of the typical small Ameri
can town from selfish aloofness In Its at
titude toward tlie war to a hearty nnd
earnest desire to serve 4he nation both
with its money and men particularly Its
men.
The central figure Is a young man who
Is elected constable because of his stal
wart appearance, but who Is lacking In
the i-ort of courage that Is commonly es
teemed manly. His "chicken-hearted"
nature ra,rns the contempt of his towns
men. His metamorphosis Is depicted
along with the chnnge of heart wrought
In the others, both men and women. For
each there Is nn Inner struggle of contra
dictory emotions. But in the end the im
pulse to serve tlie knowledge "that
Khaki Is no mere color and weave, but a
living, precious thing, the symbol of
Service, which Is lIfe Itself triumphs,
transforming those whom It touches. .
It may be argued that In tho ardor of
patriotism the author has permitted the
Interest nf his story to lapse, and that
his dialogue Is frequently oratorical
rather than conversational and natural
nut of his sincerity and zeal there can be
no possible doubt. And thoe are vital
qualities III 11 book nvovvedly written to

A Grim Picture of Modern
Materialism in Realistic
Novel by C. G. Norris
Betw-een such a novel ns "Salt," by
Charles a, Norris, brother of the late
Frank Norris, nnd the stories ground
out by our professional "glad" writers, a
great spiritual gulf Is fixed. It Is n
gulf that cannot he encompassed by
readers who thrive on a diet nf fictional
sweetmeats, of unalloyed sentimentality.
To say thnt tho book !. an extraor
dinarily vital fictional study of con
temporary American life Is merely to
rubber stamp It with a phrase worn
rather meaningless from Indiscriminate
use and repetition. But to read even a
few p'ages Is to be clutched Irresistibly
hy Its almost uncanny reality, to feel Its
force ns a profoundly Impressive and
searching picture of certain phases of
our modern tducatlonal and business
systems.
it Is not a pretty picture that Mr.

may not be typical of the nntlon's young
manhood. But within his own limita
tions, and his own type, be Is undeniably
representative. His chief personal trait,
a lack of moral courage, a too facile com
pliance with life ns he finds It, develops
from year to year Insidiously, until he Is
finally engulfed by his own dishonesty,
and is obliged to learn n lesion that is
the more bitter because It has been de

The foundation for the youth's disaster

laid tecurcly In his school days, ac

hanging there b.v a rope and take it to

With more actual information nnd
fewer adjectives, John I-eyland's account
of "Tho Achievements of the British
Navy In the World War" would prove of
value In a somewhat neglected field of
war literature. The title of the little
book Is misleading. The author confines
himself to frank eulogj'. His facts are
chiefly the obvious and superficial gener
alizations that newspaper repetition has
made familiar, but of detailed descrip
tions of the work actually done by the
British navy there is little.

His Tales of the Sea in Wav

and Insight
James B. Connolly Is easily one ot
our very best writers ot sea tales
using tho word "best" comprehensively
to denote both narrative power as a
storv-teller. nnd authority on the sub
ject of the sea nnd the men who go down I
to It In boats. He understands human
nature nnd the nature of the sa: he Is
Ihe happj possessor of an easy, in
formal stj'Ie, and the facultj of original
observation, nnd n keen Instinct for
what is humorous and dramatic. AH of
these qualities mark the varied stories
about the United States navy which
make up his latest volume. "The U-Boat
Hunters." No more fascinating and
entertaining collection of tales nbout our
navy In the present war has been pub
lished. f
The title Is somewhat misleading, for
the actual hunting of German sub
marines Is onlj- one feature although
one of the most exciting of the book.
There nre prellmlnarj" chapters dealing
with the newer, more efllclent types of
navy ships and navj- men : of the pass
ing of old traditions and the prevalence
of new Ideals. There Is also a chapter
on the navj as n career and a descrip
tion of the workings of n submarine.
But of greatest general Interest, of
course, nre tho livclv. personal accounts
of eager j'oung sailors zealously on the j
looKout ior elusive periscopes as mo
transports hurrj- across, of clashes with
autocratic admirals both British and
