perpetuation of the forest reserve policy, and
most Of the debate has been directed TO the
criticism and defence OF that policy. Senators

the attack, supported by Senator's Carter, War

ated with Pearson, the London maga-
zine publisher. and is now doing much
work on the Review of Reviews ency-
clopedia, and finds time between tasks
to write novels and poems, of which
later volume will soon be published.
This story is an exciting romance
with a Zenda flavor. 1t has an Eng
lishman for a hero, good toslook at, of
course, and with foo1hardy courage.
For heroine there is Gurtha, duchess
of Stromberg. an obscure little king
dom in the wilds of northern Europe
Her throne is wobbly. owing to Rus
sian greed. and her assassination is
part of the revolutionary plan. The
plot is most ingenious and cleverly
worked out. The authors are not in
the least afraid of staining the heros
hands with blood. He kills right and
left with a delightful abandon, but the
heroine, unlike her Zenda predecessors,
is good and true and rewards her lover
as he deserves.

showing in this book. Its tragedy Is
inevitable, but not of the kind which
impresses.
The Whirlwind" has for it's hero a
very giant of man. If he ever
gloried, il, was in his strength He
stood four inches over six feet, yet,
until another was placed beside, did
not appear tall by reason of his just
proportions. He was brown man
with brown triangular whiskers and
mustache that he cut straight across
his lip like a toothbrush. The cropped
hair on his face spoiled it, for the
features were finely moulded and in
repose revealed something of the larSe,
soulless. physical beauty OF creek
statue of youth
This. giant. Daniel Brendon. is of 9
narrow mind. deeply: religious. living
by the golden rule, but his interpreta-
ton of the religion of everyday life is
austere to degree. Daniel is a farm
laborer. Almost at the opening of the
story he meets his fate. Sarah Jane

Daniel says on their first meeting:
''You'm. lonely up here, I reckon, an
not another house for miles.
But the old philosopher is not lonely

among the rogues, your honesty wears

me mad-all the noise and business
and silly talk.
Sarah Jane mates well indeed with
Daniel; she is FIVE feet ten and beautiful
as the sunshine. Her hair shone of
the palest gold that a woman's hair
can be; her skin was white. Only the
summer suns and the wind from the
ocean warmed it to clear redness. When
winter came again and the light was
low, her face grew pale once more. But.
pallid it was not. Health shone in her
radiant blue eyes and on her lips. She
revealed great riches of natural beauty.
but they were displayed to no artificial
advantage"
This beautiful pair march steadily
nished in Hilary Woodrow, the pros
porous owner of the farm on which
Daniel works. Woodrow is almost
woman hater. because of a mistake
his youth, but when he sees the youni
bride of Daniel he. discovers that here
is a woman he might have loved.
The love affair between Hilary and
Sarah Jane is far from convincing, nor
is Hilary's conversion to Christianity.
And yet the book as a whole leaves
the reader filled with emotions like
those inspired by Hardy's Tess" The
somberness of the book is relieved by
genuinely humorous village character
izations. Too few such fine novels are
found in the fiction of the day.

SO good. capable. brave, angelic and
self-sacrificing that 1t hardly seems
