Their book has a unity of aspect and treatment'net any tee frequent i,n Joint literary produc tions,, and Mr. Hubbard, formerly an actor in Maude Adams' companies, adds the sense of dramatic presentation te -Mies Bennet-Thompson's facility in crisp phrase-making gained in turning out advertising copy. "Without Compromise" has both punch and, pull. It, holds the reader by Its sequential and suspensive plotting, Its fidelity te genua and type in charac terization, Its intensity of situation and its' sweep te climax. The lore-motif is both' Insistent and,, intrinsic, but the book Is,. Something mere than a mere sentimental romance, for the authors hare made a serious study' of mob spirit and the lynching impulse in an American community. They stress the point, net by Breaching, but by ef fective 'object lessen, that the cleansing ei pentics is necessary te estoeiisn a state of things jvhere resistance te mob violence and the prosecution and punishment-of mob murder will be se sure snd swift as te 'discourage such out bursts.

The big scene absorbingly led up te through sereral chapters and thrillngly developed Is that in which the heroine calls. en her lerer. who hna been elected anerin or tne county, te defend bis honor, and his prisoner, even though he knows that the mob which demands a victim has been collected and worked upon for purely political purposes te put him into the inextricable difficulty of cheesing whether he will sheet at his friends and potential political support ers or be untrue te this oath of office. That bis response te her challenge In volves the death of her brother and the ultlmate political .and teclal ruin of her father naturally creates n situation In which the course of true love is net smooth. Oneef'the Interesting things about this novel is that very picture of a noble woman, who, without being an impossible piece of perfection or in humanly strong, yet holds .her man te the finest things, of his own nature even where she cannot see clearly just what notions en his part that rectitude may require.

The author who keeps te this rule and then Ieta his Imagination run riot is mere than likely te turn out something that will provide mental relaxation and keen enjoyment for the mystery-story fan.

I hap pened te step nt the house where four of these famous members live. I had en my person two bottles of wine nnd before I left one quart was nearly gene, each member having a geed shore. The above Is only a sample of many of these famous members. It is strange that the Law Enforcement League does net direct its attention te the danger ous criminals who are at large. Hew in tbe world can you expect people te obey the Velstead Act or the Eigh teenth Amendment when tbe very law makers cannot obey it themselves? Yeu cannot lead any one te tbe Lord if you don't knew the way yourself. Personally I believe rum has mere pri vate friends and mere public enemies than any ether substance known.

Daylight Saving Net Device of Rich Te tht Editor of the Evening Pu&Jfs Lrifeir: 'i Slr A correspondent of yours has attacked a recent letter of mine ad vocating daylight saving but. ns far as I can perceive, he has failed te advance a single reason for his atti tude. I would like te sentcntleusly remark te "Lew Brew" (as he signs himbclf, quite fittingly) that "abuse Is net argument." He offers me a pair of steam -heated cufflinks if I can show him an oppo nent of daylight saving who does net knew that the division of time is man made. Well, if I wanted the useful article he generously offers I could show him three letters In my posses sion which atfack the law en the ground that Ged has net shown any disapproval of our present method and therefore It should net be changed. I believe even L. B. will acknowledge the absurdltv of such statements; nevertheless I have the letters and while I can't produce the writers themselves, this may serve as an Inti mation te L. B. that such people de exist in spite of his unbelief. It would be quite as helpful if in stead of changing the hours the city workers were permitted te go te work an hour earlier and step an hour earlier the effect would be the same but there would be psychological objections, no doubt. Lew Brew Intimates that I am a fanatic and that my attitude Is taken because "the farmers are against it." Neither statement Is correct. My or iginal letter was written te refute one In which the writer stated that the law was favored only by the rich se they could hove nn extra hour of golf. 1 get up at 7, A.
