Tboe who read what Vernon Kol-

Hoover, the Man and His Work." will

biolog.r in I.eland Stanford I'tiiverslty
when the war began, and latpr was as
sociated with Mr. Hoover in the uork
of Ileigian relief, writes from inti
mate personal knowledge. What he

eight years old. he went to Loudon ns
the junior partner in the firm that had
eniploy.ed him in Austrnlia. It once
more sent him to that country. After
accomplishing bis work there in seven
months, ho returned to London, where
ho became managing director or chief
consulting engineer of a score of min
ing rompanies. One of bis large un
dertakings was in the t'rnl Mountains
in Itussia, where the mining company
sustained n population of 170,000. The
company was bankrupt. Hoover restored
its solvency, and raised the big popu
lation from poverty to comfort. In
Itiirnm he took hold of n deserted mine
in ii jungle nnd made it the foremost
producer of its kind. He had to build
eighty miles of railroad and organize
at the mine everything needed for its
working. He bad HO. 000 men working
for him during this period. In 1014,
when the war broke out, he nnd his
associates had in their employment
about 1".",000 men. for he had risen
from a mining engineer hired by n re
taiuer into an owner of mining enter
prises. He has maintained an office,
nnd office staff in London. New York
and San Francisco, and before the war
it was his custom to make frequent vis
its to these oflioe. ns well as to his Lon
don office. He liad a house in Loudon,
but his family also frequently came to
America, so that he has not been out of
touch with this country at any time.

Mr. Kellogg's book makes it clear
that Mr. Hoover has not been out of
touch with America, as lias sometimes
been asserted, but that he has been
active "in" American business affairs as
well as in. business affairs in other parts
of the, world. The views of Mr. Hoover
on various topics are contained in four

FICTION OF ALL SORTS
Novels Grave and Gay to Suit
Readers' Moods
Arthur Somers Itoche. has made nn
advance over his previous fictions In
"Uneasy Street," which Is a mystery
novel, yet something more than that.
It is a speedily moving story of involved
plot and dramatic action and. too, it
is n moving picture of New York in
onn of its environments nnd phases of
life. It puts into print Hroadwny a
Hrondway thnt has passed temporarily,
mnybe permanently. The situations nre
plausible and the characterizations well
done.
"Harry Lercy" is the newest his
torical novel from the pen of II. C.
Hniley. whose "The Hlghwnymnn",nnd
"The Gamesters" won favor of the mul
titude of readers who like "period" fic
tion. The titular hero U un Irish ml
venturer in the service of France, like
many of bis exiled countrymen from the
flight of "the wild geese" nfter English
conquest of Limeiick. "tho city of the
Violated Treaty," up to Napoleonic
times. It Is this last era that provides
the period for Mr. Hallcy's book. Nn
polcou is a prominent personage In the
story nmr the hero's lack of fear of the
Little Corsican brightens the pages.
Admiral Nelson is another prominent
figure. Napoleon's abduction nnd ex
ecution of the Due d'Knghien Is part
of the historical rnbstanee of the nar
rative. With such material, and a
quaintly witty, courageously daring
hero and a lovely, whimsical, wayward
heroine, it will be smnll wonder if this
novel is a great success.
"Outside Inn." by Kthel M. Kcllcy,
is n chinning -novel of sentiment, ro
manre and humor for early summer
rending. Somebody has said of Miss
Keller's book that "Outside Inn" is
more than n restaurant, it's an institu
tion. A course of true love that doesn't
run smooth, big money nnd some ex
citement nre the . ingredients. Tho
writer's touch is light but firm, her
sense of characterization is keen nnd her
dialogue is crisp, spirited and often
witty.
"Rebels" is a fact-story, more real
istic, but no less absorbing than fiction,
of an individual's plunge itito anarchy
and dash out ag.iiu. The story is told by
the girl in question. Marie (ianz, who
writes it in collaboration with Nat J.
Ferbcr. It is a dramatic narration of
life in New York's lower East Side its
hardships, its actualities, its dreams,
its ideals, its mistakes, its resentments
nnd its rebellions. The central figure
is such a rebel against the constraints
and unevencsses of society. She became

The story of whose life has been
told by Vernon Kellogg
Rcd-Bloodbd Short Stories
Red blood characteristically pulses
through the arteries of Richard Hard
ing Davis's fiction. And the spirit of
youth is dominant in It. "The Boy
Scout nnd Other Stories for Boys." col
lected from the most appropriate of
bis tales 'for the class of readers de
fined in the title, is rich in the typical
Davis qualities. The stories vcrc writ
ten over the years of the present cen
tury almost up to the date, of his un
timely and lamented death. The titlo
story is one that will be both good read
ing and good influence for every boy
scout. Davis's earliest rucccss as a
short story writer, "Gallegher," the
crisp nnd spirited yarn of tho news
paper copy boy who made good in n
big "assignment." Is Included and of
fers with all its slnngincss nnd raciness
a fine but unobtrusive moral in the
value of persistency In sticking to a
job till the job is achieved. Then the
author's justly celebrated- "dog story."
"The Bar Sinister." is included, ns
well ns two other stories which will ap
peal to husky young America. Molly
coddles will probably not like these
stories. But they're fine for the great
majority of other American boys. As
Augustus -Thomas says in tho introduc
tion, they are "safe stuff to give to a
young fellow who likes to take off his
hat and dilate bis nostrils and feel the
wind in his face.
A dandy lot of thrilling adventures
of modern seafarers is contained with

Ralph Dudley Paine, a writer who
knows the brine, the old salt and the
modern gob as few writers know nnd
feel nnd appreciate them, Tbey are
mainly well spun yarns of the Ameri

ture of its activity and enterprises dur
ing tbo late war, In which its record
was so glorious despite pettifogging
criticisms both in nnd out of the navy
concerning its courngc. character and
accomplishments. By menns of cleverly
plotted anil absorbing fiction the writer
has managed to convey n deal of valu
able information concerning the sen
nnd the navy, authentic Information
based on his own observations nnd ex
periences nnd bundled in such wise ns
never to impair the thrill of the stories.

is fact. The second part telling how
he was sent to Trance to serve ns a

CURRENT PROBLEMS
Boohs' on Labor, Civilization,
Socialism and Freedom
From the public utterances and writ
ings of Samuel Oompers of the past
twoscorc years Hayes Robins lins com
piled on n topical basis nnd classifica
tion the policy, program nnd platform
of the president of the American Fed
eration of Labor. Really the book is
the philosophy of lnbor movements and
of lnbor problems in America." It Is
called "Lnbor and the. Common Wel
fare," and states Mr. Oompers's Ideas
and ideals concerning his cause. It Is
n monumental piece of industrial states
manship. Under such general heads as
"Labor nnd the Community." "Lnbor
and the Law" nnd "The Political PhU
losophy of Organized Labor," Mr. Oom
pers s views are appositely excerpted
from a multitude of speeches and writ
ings. The book is very interesting, nnd
should be read not only by those inter
ested in its standpoints, but by those
opposed, In order to get n fair nnd de
fined Idea of just what organized labor
means nnd is doing In this country.
"Socialism versus Civilization" is by
Boris Brasol, who, in tho words of
Thomas Nixon Carver, professor of
political philosophy nt Harvard, writer
of the introduction, "has performed a
useful service' in bringing this lesson
home to the American people. He comes
tVi his task with nn unusual enuinment.
having studied the literature of Marx
ism and tuc propagandist mctnods ot
Marxism In several different countries."
With the present deep contemporary In
terest in just what relation political
socialism bears to American institu
tions, when such men ns Chnrles K.
Hughes nnd Lieutenant Colonel Theo
dore Roosevelt oppose their 'pnrty rep
resentatives In the New York Assembly
In the ousting of Socialist assemblymen,
and when men arc divided on this line
of demarcation, Instead of on the usual
lines of party politics, etc., this book
has very pertinent interest. - '
In "The New Freedom," Francis
Nellson urges thnt the state take mo
nopoly values and free industry from
taxation, that community-created val
ues be given to the community nnd that
the Individual receive the full value of
Ills product. Thus, on this thesis, lie'
would restore what he calls natural
rights and further the regaining of what
he defines as economic freedom, nis
book shows marked scholarship and Is
brilliantly written.

pULL of the lure of the
Sunset Land of Ro
mance, the Bower books
are different, because
you find in them not only
the splendid sweep of the
Plains and mountain
ranges, the glory of the
sunset, the rugged strength
and resourcefulness of the
men and women who ride
and shoot, but also a gay and
rollicking humor as typical
of the West as all the other
characteristics which lovers
of Western novels like to find.
That is why the Bower
books arc so popular.
