Just at the time when 1.-The free
dom of the sea" is one OF the great
issues in a world war and naval
operations are matter of burning
interest, William Hamilton Osborne
comes to the front with a gripping
naval story that will add materially
to his already brilliant reputation.
Mr.. Osborne can be trusted to catch
the current news values and employ
them with tremendous effect in lit
erature. He served his time on the
Newark. Star while he was studying
law on the side and his newspaper.
training gave him rare discrimina-
ton as to timeliness Of interest. He
was admitted to the bar, but just
about that time he wrote The Red
Mouse" and it's success pretty well
settled the law business.
osborne's newest work is Meal

1t is not yet published except in
the form of proof sheets, but in this
form it has been passed upon by lit
erary critics and Its instant success
is assured as soon as it is put into
shape for presentation to the gem
eral public. The story has the sure
ness Of statement and accuracy of
fact that might be expected of legal
mind but these things are merely in
cidental to the skill displayed in
weaving the plot and the charm with
which the characters are sketched
and the incidents created.
In Neal Of the Navy" Mr.. o.
borne has succeeded to a remarkable
drgree in portraying the manly spir-
1t OF Uncle Sans maritime arm and
the loyalty and enthusiasm Of the
men included in it. In this regard
the story is Illuminating but the
plot itself is infinitely bigger and
moves with a rapidly that holds the
readers breathless interest.
Neal has the sea In his blood. y

tain from whom he has inherited his
love of shipping and his chivalrous
regard for weaklings in distress. He
is fine, clean cut young fellow who
