It becomes evident that he thinks that
It Is important that there should be a
rc-cxnmlnatien of nil the fundamental
concepts en which our social system Is
based, that the experience of the race
for centuries has established nothing,
net even "the desirability of children
glowing with health." Whatever any
one may think about the desirability of
the modern family or of monegamv,
most of us have nssumed that chlldreu
were desirable, for without them the
race Itself would become extinct. But
it seems that Mr. Steams wishes even
the desirability of the existence of man
en earth should be subjected te exam
ination te the end that the creature
might pass judgment upon the wisdom
of the conduct of the creator.

First Complete History of Or
der in English by a Member
The Itcv. Themas .T. Campbell, S. J.,
has written the first comptete history
of the Society of Jesus In English by
a member of the order. "The Jesuits"
(Encyclopedia Press, New Yerk), In Us
thousand brilliant and fascinating
pages, gives a complete narrative and
topical account of the order from Its
foundation by Ignatius Loyeln in 1004
te 1021, when the society has 17,200
members. At the beginning of the World
War there were 10,000, of whom mere
than 2000 were in service iw soldiers or
chaplains and of whom several hundred
were killed In nctien. The author is a
distinguished Catholic historian, pulpit
orator and educator, whose "Pioneer
Prlesta of North America" and "Pio
neer Laymen of North America" are
standard in their field.
Father Campbell explains that there
Is no complete history of the order by
a member in existence, the best of the
extant works being antiquated owing
te the accessibility of new documents
nnd material or out of date owing te
their composition half a century or mere
age. He further explains that many

Beth Here and Heroine in 'The
Bridge' Feel Guilty
A man and n clrl. each flehtlnc? the.
engulfing cloud of mental remorse the
man fighting te keep from blaming him
self for something for which he known
he Is culpable; the girl taking en her
shoulders n needless burden nf hlnme.
These are the strange central figures of
M. L. C. Plckthnll's latest novel, "The
Bridge." (Century Company).
Hardly companionable characters, it
may seem, but Miss Pickthall has drawn
about them n story of psychelpglcal
motif which reaches te the heights of
engrossing Interest at times.
Alan MacTicnr, an engineer, scrimps
in the construction of a bridge. A. crash
fellows this scamped work and his
brother, among ethers, Is killed. Alan
refuses te accept even mental blame for
the tragedy, altheuirh admitting his
BCrlmnlnc." He flnnllr irnpa nn the
barren Great Lakes region te fight with
himself. There he meets the girl, a waif
of the sea, who 1b en an Island with
a half madman, eilec her brother's ad
mirer, and her brother. Of course. Alan
marries the uncouth child of nature.
Then when her brother kills the mailman
in a lit of rage she takes te herself part
of the burden of guilt. Thus husband
and wife fight their battle, but along
different lines. Finally, after several
tempestuous scenes nnd a midwinter
rescue, both man and girl change their
viewpoint and satisfied romance rests
serene with the engineer deciding te
devote the rest of his life te bridges in
which "scrimping" will have no part.

the Century Company. It Is already
known that the ex-Governer disagrees
flatly with the conclusion of the Wood Wood Weed
Forbes Commission in regard te the
capability of his whilem charges for

the Filipinos have nlrcady cstablshed

ROMANCE AMUCK
"The lest Horizon" Alse Has
a Let of Literary Style
When O. Celbv Berley wrote "The
Jest Horizon" (Dedd, Mead & Ce.)
he enme near giving the public just
about ns quick moving, thrilling, ad
venturous a tale ns the admirer of hair
raising stories could desire. Mr. Bor Ber
ley has plot plenty of it; picturesque
ncs3 of locale the Canary Islands:
unusual but Interesting characters all
these in abundance but nnd there
corae the nubbins.
Mr. Berley likes te write. Whnt I
mere, he seems te revel in It. Se much
se that just as he has sketched a
thrilling bltuntlen and, as it were, has
his characters suspended In the air, he
flops about into n icrbesc dissertation
en Bome philosophical aspect of some
thing or ether and by the time the
thread of the story Is rcfeund eerac or
much interest Is lest.
But If the reader can bear with the
author in his loquacity, "The Lest
Horlren" will provlde several inter
esting hours.
The here joins an Ill-fated Cential
Amcrlcnn revolution and when falling,
ns most revolutionists de nt home time
or ether, runs into a crowd of semi
adventurous friends. Here romance
enters, of course, and It is in the cul
mination of this romance with cre?s
currents of intrigue and thrills, Includ
ing a few murders, net te mention n
couple of bits of piracy, that Mr. Betley
fills out his tale. ....
While profilgate in the use (by his
characters) of sea deg expletlvcs, the
author. Ilk a true Briten, insists that
his Englishman stick te "ruddy."
Hence, its labial excesses will net
shock Rotten Rew or Hyde Park. And
Seuth streftt would recognize most of the
ether terms used.

SHEILA KAYE-SMITH'S new novel is one of the finest
she has written, rich in insight and racy humor. The
New Statesman thinks this story of a woman whose
opportunity is at war with what her world expects of her
sex is "far and away her best." The Spectator says,
"Beth book and heroine have the quality of greatness,
unmistakable yet indefinable."
Her earlier neveli include "A Challenge te Siriui," "Tama
risk Town," "The Four Rendi" and "Green Apple Harvest."

MAYBE it is because the story flews
along in episodes, colorful, brilliant
and rounded, like a motion-picture
film. Possibly it is because of the curious
and fascinating "animated maps" of the
author's own nandiwerk. Probably it is
because of the utter simplicity of the style
and method, but certainly Van Loen has
written one of the most unusual books of a
boekful year.
He knows hew te tell the tale of history
in a manner se simple, readable, interesting
and even fascinating that the reader is as

Lord Frederic Hamilton
"that jelly old aristocrat"
is a man who has met everyone,
been everywhere, and knows all the
stories. Inspired te reminiscence by the wealth
rS. t of his personal experiences he last year wrote
"The Vanished Pomps of Yesterday." It is net often
that candor gees se far in description of the intimate
details pf a very brilliant and alluring society. Se great was
this book's success that Lord Hamilton turned te his youth,
taking the muner's privilege of jumping from continent te continent and
spanning a lapse of thirty years. This he called "The Days Before Yes
terday." New comes a third volume, "Here, There and Everywhere,"
filled with the humor and frankness which makes his personal experiences
and keen observation a fascinating panorama of affairs the world erer.
