"The llclgn of Rubber" (The Century Company, New Yerk) does net sound llkcn alluring title. In the parlance of the movies It 'has no "box office value." Hut even a casual perusal of the book makes the reader suddenly conscious of the fact that he had never realized what a vastly Important thing ikk... I. In nnr ilnllv lives and hOW few of the comforts and even necessities of our modern concept of civilization would be posslble without the nsblat nnce of the sap of the "weeping tree. William C. (Jeer, the author, is vice president of one of the biggest rubber companies in the world nnd tells nis story much as one would expect te hear It from a clear-hcndcd, hard-listed, successful man of big business. Huh her has evidently been te him the most interesting thing In the world, but His Interest in It has net been narrowing, en the contrary, he has followed it into its essential hide issues such ns chemistry, tun construction .of ma chinery, the production and treatment of Its two most Important necessities, sulphur and cotton, and into ine uin terles of these cenVtltuenta and a vis- Ien of their possibilities for the fu ture. , Mr. Qeer gives a really astonishing summary of the countless uhcs te which rubber is put today, from the little rings with which the housewife mekes ulr-tljlit her jars of jellies nnd pre serves te the huge tires en which vic tory rode across France en the muni muni teon trucks of the Allies.

This collection of experiences in Ari zona, in the Orand Canyon, hunting liens with Iiuffule Jenes or bears with ether noted guides, has the added merit of ringing true. Here Is the West, the unlimited outdoors, with its never end ing beauties of field and mountain nnd stream, brought ferwnrd In lyric prose. Kath experience Mr. Oiey had Is served up with a fictional twist that gives It added Baver. These true ad ventures deserve a high place in the literature of the West.

AMERICANS BY CHOICE A Wide and Bread Study of Alienage and Naturalization Americanization Is a currently much employed term, one of the favorite voc vec ables of the 100 per cent lung-power speakers en patriotic topics. Though It is especially favored by the profes prefes profes rlenal patrieteer, the word lias serious and sincere implications ns used by earnest citizens who hope for nnd work for the solidarity of American institu tions. They have taken some of the vagueness out of the word nnd much of the intolerance. And one of the most valuable and prnctlcnl aids In the de velopment of real understanding of the processes of transmuting alienage into citizenship has been the "Americaniza tion Studies," of which the Harpers hnve just brought out a new volume, "Americans by Choice." The author Is Jehn Palmer Onvlt, journalist and publicist, for manv years mnnnglng editor of the New Yerk 'Eve ning Pest and new vice president of thnt company. In this book he 1ms had the ndvnnt.igc of help from public offi cials volunteer compilers nnd research workers of the Carnegie Institution. Dr. GaUt's bonk is a first -hand study by nn experienced student of the prob lems of the nnturnlbatlen ami political activities of the foreign-born voter. The reader fellows the alien, who in the happy pluase of the title becomes an American by choice, from the day he declares his intention te apply for citi zenship te the day of his final admission te nctive membership In thp American body politic nnd then en into his activi ties and political development ns nn American citizen. Methods nnd ma chinery of naturalization nre closely scrutinized, the predispositions, tem perament, hereditary Impulses and later environmental Influences are exhibited, and the whole system of alienage and naturalization is subjected te keen analysis. The book demonstrates its thesis by a large number of carefully compiled stntlstlcnl tables. These and the ex ex plnnatery text refute the fallacious Im pression that new Immigrants de net become citizens nnd show the legal tells through which candidates for citlzen Fhip must pass, together with sugges sugges tlens for improvement of the system "Amcrlcnns by Choice" is a new nnd wholly original contribution te the so lution of one of the greatest and most perplexing problems of American social life. The "Americanization Studies" new cover the foreign-language press, schooling of the immigrant, the immi grant and the land, the alien rrs n nememaker amid new conditions the adjustment of Immigration te Industry nnd ether pertinent phnses of n lif lif nntienal question. And they nre cov ered with sjmpnthy, understanding nnd nlde research. AT THE FREE LIBRARY nMVleKin,,'1e'! t,,e 'n'1 Ubrnrs..

Mrs. Burnett Carries the Story 1 of the Charming Girl te a Happy End Mrs. Frances Hodgsen Burnett has. made of "Rebin" (F A. Stokes Com pany) the sequel te "The Head of the Heuse of Coembc," a moving tale of the leve of nn Innocent nnd nunllkc girl. Rebin, it will be tccnlled, was the daughter et the woman who lived In "the little slice of n house" In May fair, nnd was protected by the Marquis of Coeinbe. Her mother te her was "the lady downstairs," whom she rarely saw nnd who never petted her ns mothers usually fondle their children. Hhc hud met Dennl Muir In her child hood nnd had loved hlin, for he wus the first creature of her own generation with whom she had been allowed te piny. When- she grew elder shc had been put under the care of the Duchess of Darte by the Marquis, nnd In the Duchess' house had met Dennl again after a long Interval in which she had preserved the happy dream of her childhood. "Rebin" begins nfter this meeting. It tells the story of the loc that grew up between them, of their secret mar riage just before Denal went te France te fight the Germans, of the report that Denal had been killed ami of the droop ing of the girl wlfe who could be In terested in nothing, until she began te dream of her husbnnd. Then she began te prepare for her coming child nnd te leek into the future with hope. The book is n tender nnd understand ing study of the cmotlennl life of nn Innocent nnd pure-minded girl tangled In the web of life. It is nn exhibition! of that curious and still unexplnlned phenomenon the effect of the mind en the body. The gentle and fragile spirit that inhabited the body of Rebin was crushed by the tragedy that had over taken It, and It wns slowly fading out In life. Such things have happened and various forms of words have been In vented te explain them, hut they arc Inexplicable by any formula. And the explanations 'of such dreams as these that Rebin hnd of her husband nnd his reassuring words te bcr in the dream de net explain. It is called telepathy, but that does net mean any thing. It is simply a label applied te a mystery. In the story Mrs. Burnett has ence mere shown her faith In the goodness of human' nature, thnt faith the exhibition of which in all her novels has wen her the affectionate regard of n lnrge circle of readers. It makes the rending of her books a refreshment after the cynicism of some of the youirger neellsts. And her happy ending is n concession te the desire of readers te be pleased rather than harrowed. ILLUSTRATED EDITIONS OF FAMOUS CLASSICS These who are in the habit of read ing an old book whenever a new ene Is published de net hnvc te depend en the old editions of the old clnnslcs. The books which have survived their first popularity are continually reprinted. Dedd, Mead ec Ce. hnve this fall brought out three of them. They are Charles Rende's "The Cleister and the Hearth," Scott's "Ivanhee'I and Mel ville's "Meby Dick." Each is printed in large type en geed paper and illus tiated In color. The "Cleister" illus illus tintiens by Evelyn Paul catch the medieval spirit most satisfylngly. Row land Wheelwright, who has made the pictures for "Ivanhee," has painted in n different manner, but he has get the spirit of the tale into his pictures, nnd Mead Sehaeffer has drawn a let of colorful sen pictures for "Meby Dick." Each of these tales will be read long after the best s-ellcrs of the moment are forgotten.

LINCOLN Who finds Cape Ced an inex- liaustible source of entertaining fiction ADMIRAL OF WOMEN Lincoln's Latest Story Is About the Commander of a Heme for Mariners' Widows Cape Ced Is no mere incxhnustlblc as a source of human Interest than is any ether part of the world. Jeseph C. Lincoln has written se man? books about the people en this spit of sand that he must have lest count of them. Yet he continues te produce one or mer a year with surprising regularity. And they nre nil cntertnlnlng. If he had happened te be familiar with any ethel district he doubtless could have pre duccd just ns geed a scries of novels, He hns the gift of plot construction and the ability te see the humorous side of life as well ns the tragic side. And ht is wholesome-minded enough te make his books comedies rather than trage dies. "Fair Harber" (D. Applcten & Ce.), his lntest, is the story of a horn for mariners' women nt Bayport en the Cape, end of what happened te it nnd te the people responsible for Its management. Captain Sears Kcndrlck, the here, who hns been se badly Injured in a railroad accident thnt he is unable te go te sea, becomes admiral of th home, as he calls himself, and takes the pest very much against his will. The captain is a bachelor and the matron of the Heme has a heautiful nnd capnble daughter. It will be seen nt once thnt there is the raw material here for ro mance nnd for humor. The Idea of a bachelor sea captain running n hem for widows nnd sisters of decenscd mar iners is in itself funny. And when n bachelor seaman and a pretty girl arc brought into proximity nlmest anything may happen. Mr. Lincoln sees te It thnt a let of Interesting nnd exciting things come te pass, and he keeps the render in suspense until the Inst chap ter. His handling of the inmntes of the home is such ns will delight every one who has never hud te manage n let of women who once were independent. These who hnvc had te keep the peace among them will find It difficult te per ceive the humor of the situations, be cause Mr. Lincoln has described them with such a complete understanding of the crotchets of the women. The book is ene which can be commended te n reader who wishes relaxation for an evening or two. It will last slower readers scvernl evenings longer, but even then they will net tire of It.
