CW THE IMMITTGABILITY OF THE HUMAN PREDICAMENT
(AN "ADVANCED" GIRL
W, L. Geerge Presents a Study
of Abnormal ''Morality"
in "Ursula Trent"
The nvernce reader will find It dlf-
'4llt"te .believe In Mie plausibility of
.' jfwch a young weninn ns Ursula Trent ;
V ie Is normal, he will certainly hope
1 th.T no such perren exists. 1'i'lns nor ner
rati, be will concede, of course, that
tfrere nre thousands of Rlrls with her
particular lnek of morality, just ns there
are thousands of men similarly unfor
tunate Hut he will doubt, and very
atrenjrly, that any nermnl girl ns Ur
sula is presented of Reed family and
pleasant home surreundlnKN, could be
ee unsettled by war conditions and "ad
vanced Ideas" that the would deliberate
ly take up the life of a demlniendaine
for the experience thereby attained.
Ursula rejeclH hci portion as the
dnujhtcr of a "county famllv" very
humdrum, perhaps, but nevertheless a
family of nieniw ami position te go tn
Londen and work In a shop and Gravi
tate into a manicurist. Meanwhile die
centrnct an Irregular relationship,
apparently as an experiment. Thh
particular expcrimvrtt being net te be
liking, she tries at. ether one. Her new
friend 1 a person of such comparative
Affluence that Urmia gives up her man
icuring and has a line time nt the
drinking revels nnd drug parties which
ere all the je in Her set
Leng before the 'Washington Confer
ence bad been visional even as a re
mote possibility, Jehn Tiny, MeKln
ley's great Secretary of State, made one
of these utterances that seem Inspired.
"The storm center of the world h.is.
gradually shifted te China," he seid,
about tvcnt -three yenre age. "Who
ever understands that mighty empire
socially, politically, economically, re
ligiously, has a key te world polities
for tbc next five centuries."
When Hay thus was peering Inte the
future, a modern social surrey of China,
or even of one Chinese city would have
been Impossible. It would have been
almost Impossible a scant ten years age.
New, as never before, China is clinlr
lenging the attention of the thoughtful.
It is an interest far broader, far mere
calculating, than the world attention
that focused en China during the Buxcr
tragi dy.
Fer this new Interest there Is need
for accurate Information, for exact
fucts. A highly important start In that
direction is the recent survey of Pekin,
mane bv Sidney D. Gamble, usslsted by
Jehn Stewait Hmgess. It was spon
sored bv the Princeton University Cen
ter in China and the lVkin Y. M. C. A.
The results are set forth in "Pckln: A
Secial Survey," from the press of
Geerge II. Dornn Company.
The entire social fabric of the North-
irn cnnltnl is nnolvrel with a wealth of
Mnv Jirnnil Writes New Nevel detail. There are chapters dealing, v, lth
! the cltv s population. Its Menlth, cduca
' Hut the world sees black for Ursula
Tthen Ml- discovers the repeated phil
andering of the gentleman who supports
her, and it is cencelv.ible that she
might bare consented te return te the
security of her "county family" bad
she net very geneieusiy decided, in-f-tend,
te be conventional for once ami
marry a. sober nrchttect who Ind betn
Wilting for this very thing te Imp
pen. This no, el. by W. 1,. Geerge, with
the name of Its "heroine" for its title,
is an entertaining book for the p-.-eple
who like thrit kind of thing. The life
of tbs streets nnd the color of the
underworld pnrtics are doubtless very
realistically presented. Hut the nver
, ego rinder will still insist that there
rjn't any such person ns Ursula Trent
and, If he has nm sons or tl'iughter
impressionable years In his home,
he won't leave the book mound whole
they are likely te tee 't.
WHISTLIN' DAN AGAIN
latest volume, "The Seventh Man" (G.
1. Putnam's Sens) will prove an ex
citing climax and finale.
Once mere In his beloved hills Dan
gees "bad" when a posse sheets down
a liorse te which be has become at
tached. The story of his wild, blood bleed
lusty vengeance en the seven Impli
cated In the "killing" makes up the
chapters of the work.
That the "Seventh Man" is Harry
himself, nnd that his weird career is
brought te n close in n heart-catching
and dramatic manner will net end in
terest In this strange and withal Ilk
nble character. Mr. llriand, iu "The
Seventh Man," has laid the ground
work for nnether character which can
be expected te step forth en the stage
seen in the little untamed daughter of
the temperamental bandit. . And as
Harry's two friends, Satan, bis unbent
nble horse, and his wolf hound, Black
Hart, arc still alive, fictionally, the
fourth of the series is sure te come.
PEKIN SURVEYED
BRILLIANTLY UNREAL

Secrets
Sadleir's "Privilege," a Ro Re
mance of Changing
England
Michael Sadleir's "Prlrllegc" (O. P.
Putnam's Sens) received se many lint
teiing notices in England where it first
appeared and Mr. Sadleir has written
se appreciative an introduction for the
American edition that n reader ap
proaches it with high anticipation.
Mr. Sndlelr explains In the Introduc
tion tlint "it Is liferclv n sterv. born of
! the strange allurement of passing great
ness, wiucii sets nn iinnginary love
drama ngalnt the tapestry of our
turbulent and changing England," and
he disclaims the Intention of teaching a
lessen or urging n pelltlcnl creed.
Therefore it must be ncceptcd as a re
mantle novel nuiUjudged ns such. One
British critic was se deeply impressed
by it thnt he wrote thnt It was difficult
le speak of it without exaggeration.
These famlllnr with Jeseph Hcrgo Hcrge Hcrgo
sheimor's finely wrought literary
mosaics would net be unduly impressed
by "Privilege." Its liternry manner
leminds of Hergcslielmer. nnd the coldly
intellectual way In which the plot is
constructed nnd the figures arc moved
about te the ultimate consummation of
the romance is also suggestive of
Hcrgesheimer. This is only another
way of saying thnt the book lacks
warmth and humanity.
It is the story of the decline of a
privileged family, opening with the
dentil of its head in old nge. uumnurncd
even by bis own children. The heir Is n
sensualist who is finally killed by the
brother of a girl whom be had wronged.
The second son succeeds te the prepertv
nnd the title. He is a fanetical nristo nriste nristo
cret, who does his best te restore the
prestige of the family as a member of
the privileged caste. He marries n
voluptuous woman who falls in love
with his brother, and when he dis
covers it, proposes thnt the attentions
of the brother be accepted quietly
rather than have n scandal. The hus
band finnlly kills himself, when his
sister, who had married a Hungarian
Prince, is discovered in communication
with the enemy from Londen. It will
be seen thnt the period of the story
covers the years of the war. The third
son, the one with whom his sister-in-law
is in love, then comes into the
property. He sells the family estates,
gees te Italy and when he hns estab
lished bis citizenship sends for the
widow of liis brother and the story ends
with their wedding night. The book
is ns cold nnd as brilliant ns a diamond,
but in spite of its plausibility the whole
story seems unreal.
