Theodore Itoosevrlt wrote (January 1, 191'J) : "Your book . . .
pleased mo very much." ,
"A delightful book," writes Major Inn Hay Bclth.
The New York Times' 'Book Review says: "Good laughs arc pretty
sure to bo xvaitinp; 'or any reader." ,
The 'ew York Evening Post, in half a column on the editorial page,

"JAVA HEAD" COMES NEAR
BEING A VERY GREA T NOVEL
Joseph Itergesheimer's Tttlc of Salem in the Forties of the Lust Cen
tury a Work of Intellectual
Brilliance
It Is doubifii If any other American',
novelist than Joseph llergeshehner, of
West Chester, could have written "Java
Head." The book luo n combination of
qualities cvccdlngly rare In coulempo-
. rarj fkilon. It has atmosphere, to ui
a hncknevrd word fiom the vocabulnr.v
of the critic of painting, but no other
expression seems to describe that which
distinguishes n gloat painting from a
photograph. The tale has pontic Imael-
'nation whlih trnnsfouns the Salem of
i the Into forties of the last century Into
a place of romance, appealing to all tin
i senses. The thimmerlng sea becomes n
t-llkcn fabric wrapping In lis folds and
glorifying the commerce of the port. Tin
perfume of the lllnui In tile spring Is
transformed Into nn enchanting fra
grance, suggesting tho softnesses nnd
allurements of the tropics rnther than
tho rigor of N'ew i:ngland And the char
acters seen through this translucent me.
Hum nre colored by It There Is no man
writing In America today who can equal
Mr. llergeshclnicr In creating out of the
ordinary materials nn ntmo.phcie for a
tale which surprises at first by Its ap
parently e.xotlc warmth, but at lmst
commands admiration for Its revelation
of uususp4ttctl qualities In common
things
Hesldes Us coufhlnatlon i f rare quali
ties the book ban grave deficts but for
ulilih It would be n very great novel
It somehow Is lacking In human s.vmpa
Ihy, In spite of the fact that the fate
of two or three of the chaiacteis ought
to move one to tears Mr. Ilergesliehner
apparently derided to unfold his tale as
a lapidary discloses with his tools the
slihnmirlng f.uets of the diamond hidden
In the uncut stone. As a icsult he has
produced a work In Intellectual brilliance

IRELAND DISCUSSED
BY 1R1SU-AMER1CAX
Francis llavhett X rites a
Study in Rational-
I ism
Finucls Hnckett, a native, of Ireland
and a cltlren of America, has written a
study of Irish nationalism, the reading
of which would be profitable to ovcrv
stude-nt ot the subject Just now. He
divides his discussion into three parts
tho cnucs, the consequences nnd the
remedies The causes and consequents
are found in n resunie of the Mstnrv of
the country nnd in the miserable failure
of the laiglish to uudetstnnd, and svm
pathlze with the legitimate ambitions
of tho Itlsh people. In the course of a
discussion i.'f the remedies Mr. HaekeM
sas that the alternatives for Inland
an not federalism and uprising, but
the nijnjment genuine homo tule "Ily
genuine 'home rule," he eonllnues 'Is
meant a measure which gives Ireland
lomplele control of its own llnnncis, Ita
own excise and customs. Its conscrlp
'Ini. Its administration of evervthlng
'mni pol'ce forte to land purchase and
'ts plate alongside of I'liiada and Aus
tralia and South Africa and New Zi aland
n Imperial representation nnd confer
ence In brief he woultl have the ling
llsh trust the Irish Instead of eontinu
nbi treating them with suspicion nnd
be woultl have the lingllsl nttimpt to
'ikt the point of v'ew f the Irishman
as a self-respecting mnn deslrmfs of
governing himself In his own wav and
'esentful .,t being governed by otln rs
n their wa without regard to his twn
dislris r susceptibilities
There Is little ti the book to please
i lie I'ligllsli and there Is much In it that
villi displease the professional Irishman
for Mr Hackett Is not blind to the de
ft otn of Itlsh temperament The mm
of his race ale tint nugels, nor are they
demons, but very human with m.inv hu
man frailties It Is because he fares
the problem boldly without hi nklng anv
of Its dllllciiltles that Mr. Hacketfa dis
cussion deserves serious consideration.
