The Desert of Wheat
By Zane Grey
In this book Zane Grey makes another impor
tant contribution to the creation of a vivid
American literature as virile as the country of
its origin. Americanism is a dominant charac
teristic of Zane Grey's work.
"The author is a story teller of tried popularity, and
this is up to the standards of his previous novels
. . . the story is effectively told."
THE BOSTON TRANSCRIPT
'The novel is tt virile, red-blooded talc, with much
action and much fighting. It strike a deeper note than
the author's earlier books, having a more considered
philosophical outlook and a fuller realization of spiritual
needs." CINCINNATI ENQUIRER
"A tale more powerful than any Mr. Grey has hith
erto produced." BROOKLYN. STANDARD
The Work of a Wizard
"No more fascinating tale has been written by this
wizard of the pen."
ROCHESTER DEMOCRAT AND CHRONICLE
"Oncof the big stories of the year."
BANGOR DAILY CHRONICLE
' "That Zane Grey is to be numbered among the most
popular of American story writers is attested by the
enormous sale of his novels, which does not argue that
they are without literary merit, for it is possible for a
novel to be listed among the best sellers and still main
tain a certain degree of literary dignity."
SAN FRANCISCO, BULLETIN
Prophet of the West
9
"There is a bigness to the novels of Zane Grey that
makes them impressive. He is a prophet as well as poet
of the West." WASHINGTON HERALD
"For originality of theme, skill of treatment, and ex
citing interest of situations, Zane Grey, in this book, is
entitled to unstinted praise."
LOS ANGELES EXAMINER
"The book is one that lovers of manhood and the
grc3r outdoors will especially enjoy."
& SALT LAKE CITY TRIBUNE
t "Many qualifications as a writer of Western stories
are possessed by Zane Grey, whose Jatest novel is one
of his best." PHILADELPHIA RECORD

THREE ATTEMPTS TO TELL WHAT BOLSHEVISM IS
BASIL KING WRITES
AN ALLEGORY
War Turns the World Into
Whitman's City of Friends
So many tiling could bo said about
Unslt King's new novel, "The City of
Comrades," that It is difficult to decide
nblch to say first. It reminds one in
n way of "The Lifted Veil," which
was the study of the sin of n woman and
Us effect on her life, becnuso it sup
plements this novel by being the study
of the sin of n man and its effects ou
bis life. Thus It adds another 'to the
long bcrlcs of theses which Mr. King
nas worked out. The book ,1s also a
study In the processes of the regenera
tion of the down-and-out. It might
itc n textbook for social reformers be
cause of the faithfulness of its exposi
tion. Hut Mr. King really has written n
sort of an nllegoiy, using for its cen
tinl idea Walt Whitman's dream of
(he new City of friends, "invincible
to the attacks of the whole earth."
where "nothing was greater than tho
quality of robust love." Ills hero is
a young man who has gone wrong
through drink. While in the net of
stealing jewels from a house Into which
bo has broken his way, he is interrupted
by a young woman who has pity on
him and tells him to go in peace. lie
then decides to reform and goes with
a companion to tho Uown-nnd-Out
cftil, made up of men in like condition
or who have escaped from it. They
nro pledged to help one another to tho
last. There is n fellowship born of
a common terror of falling and n com
mon desire to help the other fellow. It
is really n City of Friends. Then the
war breaks out and as it progresses it
is shown to us that the nntions have
sinned as the men in the Down-nnd-Out
club lime sinned and that the duty of
tho United States to help its sister na
tions is as great as the duty of the
men struggling upward to help their
comrades in order that the world itself
may become a great City of Friends.
This is tho backbone of tho book. It
is clothed in tho flesh and blood of as
interesting a love story as was ever
written, with a heroine, tender and true
and so feminine when love overtakes
ncr that she needs to bo protected from
herself. It may be objected that thp
novel is too "prcachv." Perhaps it
I is, but Mr. King's public will not ob
ject to mat.

BOLSHEVISM IS
CZARISM INVERTED
Three Men Explain What Has
Happened in Russia
If any American Is In ignorance of
the nature of linlslictifetn urn! of its re
lation tn international sociiillini it is
not for lack of the efforts of the tusk
ers of books to inform him.
Robert Wilton, n correspondent in
Russia for tho Loudon Times, has ex
pressed his view in "Russia's Agony,"
when bo sajs that Bolshevism demands
immediate applhatioii of socialistic
ideals, that it recognl.es no nntlouall
ty, no societj, no family, nothing but a
conglomeration of manual workers gov
erned by "idealists" with the help
of a Red ami), and that it linnh the
forcible subversion of nil the laws and
covenants: upon which human societj
has been established. Mr. Wilton re
minds us, however, Hint the Itnlshcvik
government is not rcpiccntntivc of the
Russian people. lie sns Hint of the
K84 "People's Commissaries" in of
fice n jear ago two were negroes, thir
teen were Russians, fifteen were Chi
nese, tweut-tv.o were Armenians and
(ieorgiait, and more than .".00 were
.lews, and of the last 2(11 had gone to
Russia fiom America after the icvolu
tion of March, 1M7, Mr Wilton's
book is an'ndmiiablc story of tho rev
olution bketched on the background of
Russiun histoiy. It is the fullest and
most complete story that lins yet been
produced by any one not a propagan
dist for socialism.
John Reed's book. "Ten Dajs That
Shook the World," describing the sei.
me of power in l'etrograd by the llol
sheviki must he read with caution, for
Mr. Reed is nn ardent Socialist in sym
pathy with Uolhlicwsm. He was in
constant touch with the Bolshevist
leaders in l'etrograd at the time, and
was in a position to know what was
going on, so that bis statement of
facts may be accepted. It is his infer
enecs that must be taken with some
skepticism bj ono who wishes to un
derstaud the situation.
John Spargo, one of the most icason
able and well-equipped expounders of
international MHiausm. has devoted
a whole book tit .Bolshevism. He has no
use for it, for he characterises it as
an inverted CVarism anil the reverse of
that social deiuoctuC for which he has
been lighting for ears. Lenine himself
has admitted that the Rolsheviki, of
whom there are about -00,000, are .rul
ing Russia in the place of the 1170.000
nristoctats who used to rule it. They
call themselves communists, and as
such Mr. Spargo tells us that they have
parted company with the Socialists. If
ono wishes to discover how abhorrent
Bolshevism is to nn intellcitual Social
ist one cnnnoL do better than to read
Mr. Spaigo.
And if one wishes to learn just what
social democracy is supposed to be he
will find it clearly set forth in an
other book b.v Mr. Spargo called "So
i ial Democrat- llxplained." Mr.
Spargo, who separated himself from
the Socialist part) some time ago be
cause he believed it had bctra.vcd its
piinciples, is a innvinied Marxian. His
book is an intcipretation of the later
Marxian views and nn application of
them to piesent conditions.

RED-BLOODED
HISTORY TALES
Edward Lucas Whites Short
Stories Vitalize the Past
Kdwnrd Lucas White who in his two
historical novels lins made vivid the per
iods of his selected time and plncejind
made bis people flesh and blood liiimaii
beings, not cosluine-drnma puppets,
speaking strange nnd strained dialogue,
has applied the same perceptive and i
tnli7lng methods to a number of short
stories In "The Song of the Sirens."
His locales vary through ancient
(Ireece, Rome, Ktirope of the middle
ages nnd elsewhere. His people, in
elude Anna (Dido's sister, telebrnted by
Ovid), Hannibal, I'ompey, Crnssits,
Julius Caesar and other historical per
sonages, and a number of fictitious
characters very believnbly drawn from
men nnd women in the moods and emo
tions of their humnnitv ninth like meu
mid women of today. The several stories
are not merely historical narrations, er
tract ml from the archives of archeology,
but led blooded stories with suspense,
excitement, nnd climax in their plots
Mr. White dues not go to fiibbons or
Ciiote, or to Thucydides or Livy, for u
skeleton of facts on which to drape the
toga or peplum of historieit.v ; be goes
to life and invests his personages with
llfelikeness. His fiction is under no
mortmain of annnlists aud antiquarians
of the past ; he is decidedly modern in
his expression. The render actually sees
Cireece, Rome, Carthage, Sparta : he
recognizes them as living cities, not n
names, just as New York or Chicago or
Loudon lives for him in a leulistic con
temporary story.
"larbas," having to do with Aeneas's
flight nnd Dido's immolation in pursu
nnce of her vow; "The l'asces," built
about the first triumvirate and the
rivalry of I'ompey nnd Caesar; and the
title story, all reach high water mark.

A story to be read for

which was harmless and
light-hearted, he failed to

of love at first sight.
But having lied to meet
Eleanor Lowell for a "busi

her and so becomes more
and more desperately en
tangled. Vet he time and
again puts fortune to

Fannie Hurst
One of the highest paid short story writers in
America today, has won the position that she
deserves. Read what the critics say :
"The eight short stories in Fannie Hurst's 'Hu
moresque' are so many tentacles reaching out to
wring your heart. It is impossible to put them
into a class with any other short stories of the
day except those of Miss Hurst's which have
preceded them." N. Y. Sun.
"The stories in this volume are among the very
best that she has written, which means the very
best that have ever been written." N.Y. Tribune.
"She has the magic gift of bringing swift tears on
the heels of laughter." N. Y. Times.
