WAR FACTS
CONFESSIONS
OF A NATURALIST
Two Fascinating Boohs by
an Author Whose American
Fame Is Just Beginning
W. II. Hudson, bom In Arffcntlna of
an Kngllnh father nnd n New England
mother. Is one of the greatest writers In
Knsllsh at the present time. If wo may
trust his admirers. John Galsworthy,
who dedicated "The Country Houc" to
him, says of him that "as a simple nar
rator he Is well-nigh unsurpassed; as
a stylist he has few If any 11 Ine equals."
Yet almost nothing Is known of his life
save what he hns revealed In his hooks.
Tho English "Who's Who" says not a
word nbout the place of his birth, or the
year, his parentago or his residence. It
simply Rives a list of his books, begin
ning with "Argentine Ornithology," pub
llshcd In 1888, nnd ending with "Adven
tures Among Birds," which appeared In
1913.
Ills autoblogrnphy, published under
the title of "Par Away and Ixng Ago."
gives little Information about the time he
v.as born. Nothing Is said of the part
of England his father came from or the
New England State In which his mother
was born, and one has to conjecture
when he first saw daylight. He was
nbout seven years old when the Argen
tine dictator, Hosns, was deposed. As
this was In 1852 Hudson must be about
seventy-threo years old He has had
to wait a long time for fame to come to
him. But It Is moving his way with such
speed that it Is likely to envelop him
In the near future.
His autobiography stops with his fif
teenth year, savo for a little discussion
of his mental and spiritual experiences
after he wns older. It Is the story uf
the boyhood of a loer of birds and
I Honors on an Argentine estnncli In the
middle of the last century.wlth incidental
revelation of the manner of life of the
people of the country. Its stlc Justifies
the praise of Galsworthy, for Its English
Is slmplf. clear and beautiful, without
pretension of any kind. Ho tells his
story with tho. directness of Bunyan In
"The I'llgrlm's Progress."
Tho book is filled with love of nature.
Here Is the wny he tells how It affected
him when he became aware of the
beauty of the world as a child:
It wns not, I think, till my eighth year
that I Iteiran to Iio d.stlnetly conscious of
something mora than this mere childish
tlelltrht In nature. It may have been there
all the tlmo from lnrnnc I don't know,
but uin I besan to know It consciously
It was an If norne hand had surreptitiously
dropped somethlnff Into the honeed rup
which Rae it at certain times a nw fla
vor. It save mo little thrills, often purely
pleasurable, at other times startling, and
mere were occasions wnen it ucriinie an
poignant as to frlBhten me. Th sluht
of a mapnlflecnt sunBet was sometimes
almost moro than I could endure nnd made
me wish to bide mvsclf unay.
Nature and the lovo of It Is the sub
stanco of all that he has written. It
fills "A little Boy Lost," a child's hook
which he has recently written In order
that there might be In existence the kind
of a book which ho would have liked to
read when he was a child. His own
childhood has Inspired the part of It
that Is real, and a vivid imagination and
a lino rcnlUatWn of the desire of a child
to hao Its mind stretched by wonders
Inspire the rest. It Is the story of a
little English boy In Argentina who
wandered away from home and was lost
on the plains. The Queen of the Mlrago
with her train of attendants found him.
One of tho attendants said: "He lovus
wandering; let him have his will nnd be
a wanderer all his days on the face of
the earth." Another says: "A wan
derer he is to be; let tho sea do him no
harm." And the Queen adds: "So be
It, and to your gifts I shall add a third
Let all men love hlin." And so the boy
continues his wandering over the plains
Into the mountains, meeting w ith strange
adventures, and the book ends with the
child asleep on a raft at sea. It is a
story that Is likely' to be as popular as
Klngsley's "Water Babies."

A Naive Optimist'
Popular essays on simplicity In liv
ing, cast In tho semi-fictional form of
conversations, make up "Mr. Squcm and
Some Mnle Triangles," by Arthur Hus
Bell Taylor, The primary purpose of
these genial little sketches Is to demon
strate "the masslvo decency at the heart
of the common man," as exemplified In
the optimistic and common, exceedingly
common, person of Peter B. Squcm, peri
patetic peddler of automobile tires,
whoso temperament Is as resilient a the
rubber he sells.
Mr. Squcm has distinctly correspon
dence school Ideas of etiquette nnd what
a gentleman should be. But ho Is
haunted by the suspicion that he docs
not, sotnrhovv, manage to live up iu
the cut of his clothes. In real emergen,
cles, however, ho shows that his simple
philosophy Is more practical than that of
his "highbrow" chance acquaintances or
railway coaches and theatres. He knows
Just what to do In a wreck, and he
finds mo're "plot? In a Charles Chaplin
Aim than In "Die Walkurc." Yet, des
pite his unashamed vulgarity he Is the
soul of kindness, thanks to the Inspir
ing Influence of a plcturo postcard of the
Christ child he constantly carries In his
watch. Those who revel In the obvious

What Our Navy Has Done
Nobody who reads Lawrence Perry's
account of "Our Navy In tho War" will
again Indulge In the thoughtless remark
that "the navy plajs no part In this
war." For ho will learn Just how ef
fectively submarines have been fought
and captured, that our anti-submarine
activities now cover in war areas alone
moro than 1,000,000 equate miles of sea,
that "In a six-months period one de
tachment of destroers steamed over
1,000.000 of miles In the war zone, at
tacked eighty-one submarines, esrortel
717 single vessels, participated In elgh-ty-slx
convoys, and spent 150 days at
sea. There has been more than a six
fold Increase In naval man power and
about a fourfold Increase In the numhci
of ships in service. When present plans
have been carried out and all projects
are proceeding swiftly the United
States will probably rank second to
llritaln among naval 1'ovvers of the
world."
Tho book Is enlivened with many In
formative and Interesting anecdotes
Tho author covers tho activity of all
branches of the bervlce, und even pic
tures the llfo aboard a German subma
rine. He includes sketches of command
ers and men, tells of naval camouflage,
and describes the organization of auxil
iary naval departments. The scope of
the book Is as large and varied as the
navy Itself.

Engineers in War Work
The success or failure of a modern
battle may be controlled more by the
ability of ft single engineer than by a
whole regiment of Infantry. Indee.
without the work of the engineering
forces, no military operations of any son
would bo possible today. While the
public reallies this In a vague way. the
full scope and vaBt Importance of the
engineers' tasks are by no means gen
erally understood. A pppular account
of all the manifold nd difficult labor
which confront ttie engineer In modern
warfare Is provided by Francis A. Col
lins In "The Fighting Engineers." He
tells In clear, simple language how they
support the fighting army In the field
and in the rear. He tells of their vital
Importance In reconstruction work, an
in numerous Illuminating anecdotes
shows how American engineering forces
have set a new pace In France, per
forming formidable and difficult tasks
smoothly and In an Incredibly short
time The book Is an admirable, well
rounded account of the part new being
played by "tho mtnuto men of our In
dustrial army."

FAME OF W.
Verses by Three Women
With the casualty lists war's sorrows
have crept closer to tho homelands and
roust d new poets to pour out their emd
tlons In rhvthm. Among these nro three
women whoso homes have been touched
by the new regime.
It wns tho death of her brother. Cor
poral Frank 11. Loverldgc, wounded In
action In France, that Inspired I.llllan
Leverlduo's "Over the Hills of Home"
which Is already widely quoted. She
nns mado it tho title poem in ncr noon
of twenty-llvo short songs. Touched
with tenderness and pathos though they
are, there Is a monotony of rhythm that
wears on the reader who scans them
closely.
Kntherlno I.ee Bates, who wns previ
ously heard from In "Fairy Gold," has
given some beautiful lyrics of the war
In her "Hetlnuo and other l'ocms." She
has a mastery of descriptive words that
lends Itself to )ovverful pictures. Ver
satility Is hown In contrasting poems
of dainty humorous quality.
One cannot be satisfied with one read
ing of Margaret WIddemer's new poems.
They grow In depth and meaning with
acquaintance till one Is fascinated by
their artistry ns well ns by their Innnte
sweetness. The theme so many authors
are using, that God has again been

treated by .Miss Wlddemer In her title
poem. "The Old Itond to Paradise."

If Dorothy Cnntleld had written

distinction It Is made up of a scries
of tales of the war, based on facts
Sho has assimilated her material h

method of treatment remind one of
the French masters of fiction nt their
nest -rno Pcrmlsslonalre," for in
Instance, is equnl to nny talc that has
come out of tho war nnd It Is su
perior to most. It tells of a pollu who
i had fought for three ears without go-
Ing home, for the Germans were In pos
sesion of the village where his wife
nnd family lived. As soon ns the Ger
mans were pushed back last spring he
asked permission to go home and ic
celved leave for all the tlmo due him
He starts Jojously, stops In Pnrls to
buy tools and seeils to cultivate and
Plant his little garden, leaves the train
miles from his destination and walks
on still cheerful. But his steps lag
as ho sees the devastation that has
been wrought. Finally he reaches his
village. Not a house is standing
Kverj thing hns been laid waste. Af
ter a little bearch ho finds whirc his
own home had been and falls face
downward upon the ruins In an agony
of despair. His wife, who had taken
refuge In a dugout some distance nvvoy,
discovers him there some hours later
What happened Is told with a sym
pathy nnd restraint such as ono finds
only In literature of tho highest class
It is a great story. The volume con
tains others almost as good
A book of nn entirely different qual
ity Is Arthur Guy Kmpey's third vol
ume about the war. It Is a group of
tales of the soldiers and their life In
nnd out of the tranches based on the
author's cxpcrlcm.es while In Kurope.
Xo one has ever accused Mr. Kmpey of
being a man of letters, and lie Is like
ly to escape the charge The ntw book
Is ns lacking in literary quality ns
his other two. "Over tho Top" was
popular because of the Blangy and un
conventional way In which the life of
the soldiers was described This new
book, "Talcs From n Dugout," is writ
ten In the same style. A literary 'ar
tist, handing his material, might have
made something out of it that would be
of more than temporary Interest Hut
Mr l.mpey handles It so crudely that
those who will find Dorothy Canlleld's
book so moving that they will treasure
It will be likely to forgtt lanpey'u ut

such things and nothing ever happened to disturb his equanimity until that pretty widow

excitement they got it then. And "Shaving-." was the vortex around which all the be
