/ Fellow Travellers" by Graham Trav-
ers, is volume containing five short
stories. The significance Of the title
lies in the fact that in every tale after
one fashion or another, the characters
meet while journeying to and fro upon
the earth. There is, however, no monot-
| ony either in theme or treatment in the
stories. Readers of Mona Maclean"
will remember that the author was
distinctly clever and possessed the fac
| ulty of interesting the reader in her
! creations. To these desirable qualities
| she has added CONCESSION and definite
ness in her narrative style Fellow
| Travellers is excellent reading. The
author is keen, sympathetic, genuine,
| humorous, and her further work will be
anticipated with pleasure.
