IDEALIZING' T..R!
Mrs. Andrews Dees., Her .Share
Toward Creating the Tradi
tien of a Superman
Tha -nnnularltv nf Marvnavmend
Shinman Andrrnm' .tnrr of Lincoln
nnd a tbey which was published under;
tne 'titte or "The reneci iTiDute" is
doubtless largely responsible for an
other little book by 'Mrs. Andrews;
Hi's Seul Gees Marching On" (Charles
Scrlbnerv's Sens), in which Roosevelt
ana a coy appear.
The incident with which the eterv
begins may or may net be authentic.
Whether it happened or net It might
nave, nappeneu because it is in. keeping-
with, the character of Roosevelt.
Mrs. Andrews' has Roosevelt's special
train in the camnalcn of 1021 sten
at a siding in the country In order
te give mm an opportunity te rest
himself by wanderlns about the fields.
He finds a boy fishing and talks te
mm aoeut nsmnr ana nuntinc ami
about nencsty and loyalty te the ceun
try. and sivea some advice about meet
ing a crisis in the life of the boy's
family. The boy never forgets Roose
velt and when theUnited States enters
the war he offers te enlist and Is re
jected because of his eyesight, but is
nnaiiy united and. gees te n ranee ana
volunteers for dangerous service. Wheu
his nhysical cowardice Is about te make
him draw back a comrade te whom hel
had told the Roosevelt story reminds
him of It. and he carriaa an. He waken
up In a hospital with no memory of
what he did and convinced that he .had
disgraced himself, and cannot believe
that he deserved the French military
medal which was pinned en his pajamas
in the hospital bed-r by a general. The
story ends with' his visit te Oyster Bay
and his placing of the 'medal en the
rave of Roosevelt, as the highest tribute
that he could pay te 'his. here. This
outline emits all the emotion and senti
ment in the story, which is told tin
Mich a way nh te stir the feelings! te
their very depths.
It is the disposition 'te idealize
Roosevelt, responsible for such sterleB
as this, that Is likely te lift him In the
course of time into the 'company of
Washington and Lincoln as an Amer
ican superman. i '
History, Fiction and Travel
IN TAR-OFT Afrlce, where, the can
nibal still stalks unmolested and the
voodoo is in Its native heath, G. Cyril
Clarldge found the sub
stance for his latest
trnvel book, "The" Wild
Bush Natives of Tropi
cal Africa" (Llppln (Llppln
cett) A "" Keeping care
Wild
Tribf of
Africa
fully away from the
sensational or fictional style of travel
writing, Mr. Claridge gives a pains
taking and careful review of the lite,
customs, sports and religions of tbe
wild tribes he came In contact with.
Although this care for detail is of,
paramount importance, -it serves at
times te make a bit indistinct tbe gen
eral picture that Mr. Clarldge has
drawn of these wild scenes.
The book, which is well Illustrated
by photographs taken by the author
during his long stay in Africa, serves
te Illustrate the point that travel-authors
are bringing home daily that the
world doesn't knew halt about Itself
yet. r, .
TEARING aside the, curtain of the
past, Charles G. D. Roberts In "The
Morning of Time" (T. A; Stokes Cem;
pany) has woven a
fanciful story of the
A dawn era. Patnstak-
Prm-Adamit ingly nnd patently
Remane showing the results of
long. geological and zee,
logical atudy. Mr. Reb
erts has traced his conception of the
gradual evolution of man from the prim
ltlve near-beast te a thinking animal.
Battle after battle of prehistoric
monsters are described by Majer Kob Keb
erts in bis trenchant style, and with
his accuracy of detail until the wild
days "before Adam" almost seem t5
live en the printed page.
Hew our ancestors gradually came te
knew leveMn its human' conception as
differentiated from the physical attrac
tions experienced by beasts of jungle
and sea, hew the. slowly growing power
te reason brought about the discovery of
the use of fire, of the bow and arrow
and of ether utensils, ana new pre
adamltlc life was a continual battle of
man and beast are gradually unfolded.
,'The Morning of Time Is an Im
aginative bit of tbeearliest natural his
tory rather than a novel. But it in
cemnelltne In Its Interest and faithful
ness te ascertained facts. At leant there
will be no "eldest inhabitant" te arise
and write letters' te the author, giving
aa. witness" versions te dlsnrnvn fhli
or that suggestion of the story.

IIderew's Memories

.-Man Who Has M Every-
m body Werth WWIe
H Editors and publishers attempted for
fsars te induce Chauncey m. ,vt
NW te write his reminiscences with no
JNMcees.V They knew" he had been ac
Minted with every ; President since
aweaaaan and tliat he bad met dis-
of. fcki tlrtf in the
United States, and Great Britain and
that he had n.fund of Information which
would be both Interesting and' of Mrs
tetlc value It he tpuld be induced te
.WFJi" " "own. I 4 i
'txThe Scribners finally overcame his
reluctance, various' chapters ei nis
reminiscence have been published in
cnbner s Magnslne dtirinc the winter
and they are new brought out with
touch that was net published in the
aaeazlne. The hook Is nnnrenriatelv
called "My Memories of Eighty Years'
As Mr, Depew will be eighty-eight years
eM in April, he is within the bounds of
reason when he lets his memory run
back for clahtr years. When a young
amn he was elected Secretary of State
in New Yerk, and although many at
tempt were made te induce him te ac
cept office afterward, he consistently re
fused until he was finally persuaded te
eater the United States Senate. He had
declined te become Secretary of State
in i the cabinet of Harrison and ne nnu
refused ether cabinet pests and diple
matic appointments, preferring te re
tain his connection with the Vander
bilts and the New Yerk Central Rail
road Company, which began fifty-six
years age.
He linn written separate chapters en
every President from Lincoln te Reese
velt inclusive. The Roosevelt chapter
Includes his version of the story of the
shifting of Roosevelt from the governor
ship of Xew Yerk te the vice presidency.
He says that the re-election of Roone Reone Roene
vejt as Governer wns impossible as be
had offended the party leaders the pre
vailing impression is that Piatt was the
nartr leader whom he had offended and
,that Piatt wanted te get him out of the
way ana it was aeciaea te mane mm
Vice President. After Roosevelt had
told the New Yerk' delegates te the
Philadelphia convention that he would
net accept the vice presidency, Depew,
who was presiding, adjourned the tncet
Inr in order te nrevent the delegation
irem indorsing another New Yerker for
the place. He docs net name tbe isew
Yerker, but it wns Timethy L. Wood
ruff, the Lieutenant Governer, known
for his fancy waistcoats. The next
morning Roosevelt consented te take the
'nomination. '
There is a chapter en Roscec Conkling
and another en Herace Greeley, and still
another en the Governors .of New Ybrk.
He concentrates the story of his for
eign experiences in a chapter., As the
book would net be complete without
some account of his experiences ns nn
after-dinner speaker, he devotes n
chapter te societies and bnnquetn.
Sir. Depew hns written the book In a
pleasant, chattv style, with no attempt
at rhetoric. It has the freedom nnd
case of a man long nccustemed te ex
pressing himself. If there is an occa
sional display of vanity it is pardennble
under the circumstances, for It Is the
vanity of a man who has seen and done
much. ,
8he Went Inte the Movies
"Linda Lee. Inc.." Leuis Jesenh
Vance's new novel, which the Duttens
premise for April publication. Is a tale
of the movies, wherein the author paints
many a realistic picture of Hollywood,
the famous movie cltv of Southern Cali
fernia, of the stacs and the lesser lights
who congregate there nt work nnd at
play; of the ranking of pictures, and
of the strategems and spoils of produc
ers and their backers. But the action
begins In New ierk with the disillu
sions and unhapplness of a ydung mar
ried woman, lovely, wealthy and a mem
ber of a select circle of society, who
flees her life and her husband, and by i
Tutelage of England," "The Irish

tianity In Wales," "Reclaiming the
-English Tribes," "Western Civiliza
tien's Bne of Supply." "ScIioeIh of
I'liiiosepiiy. ' "The Irish Apostelnte "
nnd "The Stream of Civilization."
The book bilnss tesether. for the first
time, even in the Celtic Renaissance,
from obscure Gaelic and Latin docu
ments, as well as from citations from a
long succession of eonteinnerarv writ-
rs. the records of Ireland's sas-ea nml
scholars and missionaries in keeping
n ana learning nuve in Europe alter
tne ereaic-up ei the Heman Empire.
Thus was Western civilization sal
vaged, as is admitted by many authori
ties en the subject.
.Mr. Fltztiatrlck has written n rlml.
longing book, net of controversy, but
of revelation, since he has documented
It fully nnd supported it with authentic
citations from many sources. It u tn
be followed by another book treating of

from Migne, the various British "Rolls

the pre-eminent citizens of the Union.
National pride must prevail ever indi

have te meet nnd confer with delegates
of foreign Governments and foreign
journalists and publishers of high In

Therefore, they must be men of Inter

which will enable them te address and
discuss matters, at least in the three
European languages.

Herbert Quick's Nevel of Pio

in Fiction Ferm
Herbert Quick has written nn epic
of Iowa In "Vandemark's Felly"
(Bebbs-Mcrrill Company). In a larger
sense it is nn epic of the soil, which
happens te be that of Iowa, because Mr.
Quick knows that country best of all.
But with locale changed the tale might
ensily, se far as its spirit and content
go, hnve been written of any American
nrea in the pioneering process. And
while his story of the conquest of new
territory docs net gloze ever the hard
ships of pioneering nnd the harshness of
nature, It is free from the drastic and
sordid elements that seem te belong te
an Old World treatment, such ns Knut
Hamsun would write, for instance.
Mr. Quick's able narrative emphn
sizes the get-up-and-go, the forward
looking, the eternal optimism of the
American pioneer, exemplified in
Vandcmark, who fiahts his wny from
the East, backed only by a smnll lcj;ney,
te property, te position and te opti epti opti
onee in the beckoning nnd rewarding
West. In time his wealth nnd prestige

lad who worked his way from rousta reusta rousta

served prominence through takins ad
vantage ei ins opportunities. He puts
both himself and his name en the 111141.
The book is cast In autobiographical
form, which is handled with easv skill.
The descriptive pnssaces tire hlehlv nie.

bcllevably, as if from living models. In

Wants te Get en His Feet
Te the Editor of the' Evening Publte Ledger:
Sir As an ex -soldier of the World
War, I would like te express myself en
the bonus preposition. Why should we
net ask for what is due us? We are
net looking for easy money, or trying te
bankrupt the United States Treasury.
What we want is a chance te get en our
feet again.
In 1017 I wns drafted into the army.
I was the only support at home, sup
porting a fnmily of four. I could have
claimed exemption if I wanted, but like
nil true Americans I answered the call,
leaving my fnmily te enre for them
selves wiille 1 served the flog. After
two mentus nt Camp blende we were
sent te Camp Merritt, N. J., ready te
sail for Frauce. I could net even get a
naSS tO CO home tn kiss mr fnUru ennA-
by, net knowing If I would ever see
them again. But after seventeen months
of torture in the French trenches and
en the river Rhine, I was one of the
nicKy ones te come neme again with
out a scratch.
But I am just as bad off new as I ever
was. I was lucky enough te get my job
back, but the pay Is small, and while
I was in the army my folks could net
pay tne taxes en our home. And then
there were the store hl1U tn hn nni.i
And all they received was a check for
V'!"! n liintiili I.au.1.. ... 1 t.
I.... iiiuiiiu, uurciy cnuugn te Keep one,
let alone four people.
New. why I am in favor of receiving a
bonus Is te help me pay up the bills
which we have run up and can't get
ahead of at the present rate of pay.
And what's worse, we are booked for n
cut in our wages, which will threw us
still further back in our bills.
Understand, friends, that the only
people opposed te the bonus nre these
who did nothing for Uncle Sam but help
te raise the flag, but who didn't have
the spirit te shoulder a gun like all
true Americans.
