What America Did
fiipreparedncss, the slogan of the
pessimist nnd occasionally of the in
dignant patriot, was not profound or
grave enough to prevent the United
States from a most effective nnd exten
sive accomplishment in the great war.
Florence Finch Kelly, in "What Amer
ica Did," gives a notable summary of
the record of the national achievement
in the prosecution nnd winning of the
war. No phase is neglected the army,
the navy, the civllinn lines nt home, in
dustry, welfare organizations, and other
factors are described concisely and yet
illiiminntingly and Inspiringly.
Mrs. Kelly went to the original
sources for her facts and statistics,
which nre thus nceurnte nnd authori
tative, nnd with the trained mind of
the journalist and social worker has
assembled the material into very read
able form. As sho points out, "the
highest and best form of efficiency is
the spontaneous co-operation of a free
people." This was certainly proved
by America's mnjor nnd noble and nota
ble role among the victorious Allies.
Mrs. Kelly has told the story well. It
is one to bo proud of. Her book is
worthy of permnnent possession as a
chronicle, record and analysis of one
of the great eras In our national life.

POETRY AND PASSION
OF PELL STREET
Stories of Chinatown Arc Ar
tistic in Form and Acute
in Psychology
The tery skilled and interesting
writer who calls himself Achmed
Abdullah hns written the American
counterpart of "Iiimehousp Nights" in
"The Honorable Gentleman anil
Otlieio " These short stories nre in no
ene nn imitation, or even n duplica
tion, of the short stories of Thomas
Hurke. from one of which, it will he
remembered, David Walk Griffith made
his touching photoplay, "ISrokrn Hlos
soins " These stories of Abdullah
luie their independent existence, ful
filling the canons of short fiction, in
singlenesh of motif, unity of impression,
speeding to inevitable clim through
coherent and forwarding action. They
are admirable as short stories in all
externals.
Rut they are more, for their author
hns penetrated deep into the inner
consciousness of the Chinese trans
planted in New York. He hns made
Pell street live even more vividlv than
Iiurke, in "The Chink nnd the Child,"
from which Griffith drew his movie,
made the sordid cruel Ijimehouse dis
trict of London live in words. These
stories of Oriental guile, subtlety, pas
sion, tragedy, nbove all poetry, are
based, on deep knowledge of psychology
of a race which Americans know hardly
at all. The opening story, which gives
the book its name, has some of the
enduring plot elements of IJurlte's "The
Chink and the Child" in its touching
tale of nn Oriental poet-soul and nn
Occidental girl. "The Hatchetman" Js
a grim chronicle of centuries-old hatred
agninst the changed psychology of nn
educated Chinese.

Psychologizing the Teuton
It is perhaps as safe as it is fair to
say that no other American is better
qualified than Ur. Vernon Kellogg to
write the illuiniiinting little book, "Ger
many in the Wnr and After." Doctor
Kellogg brought the training of the sci
entist ho is a noted biologist and
economist and the taste of the littera
teur to his task of psychologizing the
Teuton, or pcrhnps n better way of put
ting it would lie to say interpreting the
Prussian mind nnd impulses which
overrode Germany of the Bismnrckian
heritage in terms intelligible to civilized
peoples. From lfll," till very recently
he has been in close touch with Ger
mans, at first In their Inflated pride
and Kultur-lust as a member of the
commission for relief in Belgium nnd
Inter in their hour of humiliation as n
member of the American relief com
mission which has been working to feed
I in ope. He has also served as an
executive of the United States food ad
ministration. An n member of the C.
H. 1$, his activities took him into Ger
many before wo entered the war and
more especially brought him into con
tact with the militaristic caste in Bel
gium and northern France. As a mem
ber of the A. R. C. his work has taken
him into post-war Germany. He has
thus had opportunity to make inten
sive studies nnd to witness some in
teresting contrasts.
Doctor Kellogg says that the Ger
mans have been made what most of
them are today by a perverted nnd bru-
' talizing education. He sees some hope!
for them and the world in which they
must still form a part in tho future.
"Instead of carrying their old type of
social organization and political atti
tude to all the rest of the world and
imposing it on the rest of the world by
force, they have now, for their own
sake and the sake of human progress,
to nccept another type. T believe that
with time they will sec this nnd do It.
Hut it will not be done in a day," is
the deduction of his observations and
studies.

OUR CITY'S STORY
IN TEXT AND PICTURE
J. St. George Joyce Narrates
tho Chronicles of
Philadelphia
In "The Story of Philadelphia" we
have nn admirable compendium of the
notnblo annals of our rlty the "City
of Homes," "The Quaker City," the
"Blrthplnce of Liberty," Pcnn's
"grccne countric townc." The chron
icler, ,T. St. George Joyce, Is n journal
ist of long experience, of much dis
tinction in his chosen fields of endeavor,
nn author with a long list of writings
to his credit, nnd one for many years
resident In Philadelphia as a student
of its history and an observer of its
institutions.
It has been n long time since n his
tory of Philadelphia on a broad scale
has been attempted. Scharf and West
cott's three-volume work is, of course,
invaluable for BOtirce material, but It is
very voluminous and detailed : besides
It takes the story not much farther than
the centennial. John" Russell Young's
"Memorial History" is also very dif
fuse nnd ends with tho bicentennial.
In the thiee decades or so that have
elapsed Philadelphia has moved with
giant strides, industrially, (ommercially
and in other ways. It hns written
new pages in its civic, educational, po
litical and literary development.
Mr. Joyce, who starts with the ear
liest settlers nnd devotes ample space
to the rounder, the colonial, revolu
tionary, consolidation, ('ml Wnr nnd
intervening periods, has. however, made
his most substantial contribution in his
discussion of the moder.i era of Phila
delphia, of which lie hns a first rate nnd
what is more lo the point, first-hand
acquaintance. He hns brought Phila
delphia history down to date, even unto
its splendidly patriotic participation iu
tho world wnr. His stjle is substantial,
but graphic; his data have evidently
been checked off Accurately and nre,
where necessary, supported by cita
tions. The book, n handsome quarto,
beautifully bound and printed, Is pro
fusely illustrated, mnn of the cuts
being reproductions of old pictures not
hitherto printed.

Old Doorways
Albert (i. Robinson, who for years
has been collecting photographs of old
New England doorways, has had about
100 of them reproduced in a book which
he prefaces with an essay on doors and
doorways. He reminds us that it was
not until the eighteenth century thnt
the colonists began to ornament the en
trances to their houses mid that from
Xew England as far south as South
Carolina are to be found houses with
doorways of the same general type.
They came iu with the Georgian era,
which began in 17-0. The colonial
builders were not architects as the term
is now understood. They were car
penters, nnd most of them got their In
spiration from a book of carpenters'
drawings by Ratty Langley. This is
supposed to explain the similarity of
general design. Langley apparently was
fond of the. classical, for his pupils
adopted the Doric, the Ionic nnd the
Corinthian pillar and pilaster with n
corresponding pediment as the basis for
all their designs, a style which con
tinues in popularity to the present day.
Mr. Robinson's book will interest
architects and all other persons who
care about the artistic achievements of
our ancestors,

Irish Fairy Tales
Irish fairy folis, of course, arc the
best in the world, because the Irish arc
of the only nationality that has kept
faith in the wee people. And some of the
very best Irish fairy tulcs we have read
are composed in "Lo and Behold Ye,"
by beumns MaeMnnus. There is wit iu
them, and there is humor; there is sen
timent and there is feeling: there is
sounding phrase and substantial sense.
Mr. MacManus hns not wasted the time
be diverted from his mngnum opus, a
monumental history of Ireland, now iu
caroful preparation, to write these
charming talcs with their tang of the
peat smoke and their Irish warmth of
heart. Mr. MacManus in this delight
ful book has made a definite contribu

IRELAND'S CAUSE
DESCRIBED BY CREEL
"Ireland's Fight for Freedom"
a Full and Eloquent
Statement ,
"Ireland's Fight for Freedom" has
the decided advantage over most books
on one of the most burning world
problems of both yesterday and today,
nnd maybe of tomorrow, that It is not
written by nn Irishman or by what is
somewhat loosely called by opponents
of "home rule" or "self-determination"
an agitator. '
George Creel, the author, Is a trained
investigator nnd journalist, a publicist
of experience and vision and a man
fearless in the furtherance of the right,
ns he conceives the right. He is
American not merely by the accident of
birth, but by all the inspirations and
implications of Americanism. Ho is
not n one-generation American, but
derives back to an nncestry nlmost
pioneer. His work, of great energy,
competency nnd value, during the war,
as chairman of the United States com
mittee on public information, is well
remembered. His sense of news led
him, on the teiminatioii of the Peace
Conference, to fathom the big world
"story" in Ireland, and without any
predilections or prejudices, but Wrely
with the reporter's (unction of "getting
the news" ns n guide he mude n tour
of investigntion of troubled Erin. Ap
parently what he saw and heard led him
to make researches into the political,
economic, socinl and religious history
of Ireland.
The consequence is this book. Just
as Mr. Creel's antecedents arc unusual
for this kind of book, so the book itself
is unustinl. Mr. Creel attempts no
profound presentation or elaborate sur
vey, but with the journalist's instinct
and training for selection of essentials
has written, very graphically, nu out
line thnt has all the necessary back
ground nnd supplement of statistics,
data nnd citations, but which pla.vs up
the high points. He does not hark
bnck to ancient prejudices, olden far
off things nnd battles long ngo, but
has really modernized the Irish situa
tion and Irish rlalnw. He discusses,
however, both past and present. His
conclusion, us to the future, is that
Ireland should have self-determination
and that an independent Ireland will
be better not only for Ireland, but
for England and the world. He con
siders all phases political, economic,
racinl nnd religious. His presentation
of Canada's fight for dominion govern
ment, nnd why this solution is not ap
plicable to Ireland, will be n revelation
to American readers. Readers may not '
agree with .Mr. Creel's arguments,
either in pnrt or as a whole, but they
will undoubtedly agree that he has
produced nn informing and stimulating
work.

Samuel Scoville, Jr., tells n story of
hovv a millionaire lumber king who was
cynical about the value of scout training
to bojs put it to n test. lie challenged
a camp of scouts to send two of their
number up into his forest on the Cana
dian border without taking anything
with them not even food or clothes,
to live thirty days. If they stood the
test they were to receive u camp in his
great wilderness, nnd he was to pay
them double the value of anything they
found, How the two scouts lived iu the
woods, the dangers and difficulties they
overcame, the uses to which th'ey put the
woodcraft of their organization, and the
outcome of tho wager of the lumber king
make u story of interest and informa,'
tion.
