n ls no time to be squeamish. The
traitor should be dealt with as he de-
serves. Ls the miserable life OF a
traitor more sacred than the life Of
an American soldier2 Should the spy
be permitted to live while the soldier
gives his life for his country? Under
military law the spy must suffer
death. Civil authorities may also In
fiict the death penalty for treason.
There IL NO comfort in the reflection
that soldier must give up his lie for
his country while the traitor is per-
mitted to live, and there is no reason
for the manifest injustice of taking
the soldiers life and permitting the
traitor to live. Sentimental conside-
rations for the value OF the life of a
spy are absolutely wasted in view OF
the appalling fatalities on the battle
fields Of the world. The wretch who

his victims slumber on the bottom OF
the sea. The traitor who with bomb
wrecks factory or some public build

be backed up against wall and plug
ged with lead. The American pacif-
list who by word and deed gives COM
fort to the enemy should be given the
full measurement OF the penalty the
law prescribes for traitors. There Is
no middle ground in this war. You
are either friend or an enemy OF
this country. and the enemy should
be punished II we would protect the

ONION LAKE probably knows more
~ about submarines than any living
man, but that fact does not indicate that
he can write work on this subject more
informative than the books which have
preceded it in the rapidly growing library
of volumes on the subnersible craft.
Mr.. Lake is too prejudieed in favor of
this type of ship to present its case
equally; he is very loose in many of his
statements in matters related to subma-
rines in their military aspect; he is much
too strong an admirer of Germany's use
of these craft to make his text palatable
TO the average American, and, moreover,
his statements in regard to the naval sit
uatiOn are not sound.
The Submarine in War and Peace is
the title of his work, which Rms to 297
pages that include not little repetitious
matter. The text is divided into eight
chapters devoted to What the Modern
Submarine Is; The Comedy and Tragedy
in Submarine Development; Experiences
of Pioneer Inventors of the Submarine;
The Evolution Of the Submarine; Use Of
the Submarine III Var; The Possibility
of Defeating the Submarine and two
chapters devoted to the submersfble in
times of peace and its destiny. AS for the
future of these craft in peace times we
can put that subject aside, for one mans
vision in this respect is as good as an
others; although one may we'll doubt the
commercial expediency of ocean transport
tation in a type of vessel that has to be
forced wholly through the water instead
of only partially, as is the case Of the
ordinary type of ship. What we take
particular exception to is Mr.. Lakes pres
entation of the case of the submersible in
its military aspect.
For example, he states on page 8: GAS
l write the submarines of Germany are

holding the allied Powers in check. The
British fleet dares not invade German
waters or attempt close blockade of Ger
man ports. In spite of the mighty Eng
hsh navy, the German U-boats-the in
visible destroyers-are venturing forth
daily into the open Atlantic and are rails
ing such havoc with merchant shipping
that the world is terrified at the prospect
1t is the German U-boat which to-day en-
eourages the Central Powers to battle al
most single handedly against the rest Of

There is not single sentence in the
above quotation that is true, aside from
the fact that it is in singularly bad taste
for an American to set down such far
rago Of nonsense in work that presumes
to be authoritative. In spite of its sub
marines, the German navy is contained"
rs the naval strategists describe it, and
does not dare 60 out into the "open At
lantic" or even the North Sea.
The German navy presents a spectacle
such as has never been known in the his
tory of the world in its refusal to attempt
to go to sea. "The British feet dares not
invade German watersw We have her
constant patrol of the North Sea and the
brilliant operation at Zeebrugge to answer
to this outrageous statement. In view of
the fact that our feet is actively operat
ing with the British navy it might seem
common courtesy to our sailors and our
country for Mr.. Lake to have included the
American ships with those of our ally
when he penned that phrase about "in
spite of the mighty British navy and to
admit that the Allies are surely but slowly
beating the submarine.
As for the German pirates terrifying
the world" that is pure bosh, and Mr..
Lake knows it. Only the Germans ever
believed it, and those of very ignorant
class who were taught so by an inspired
press.
The statement at is the German U-boat

Powers to battle almost single handedly

philosophy local habitation and name.
He divinized the individual. He took the
transcendental ideas of India, Plato, EN-

Sherwood
at Pine Camp"

h|AN SHERWOOD ALPINE CAMP,
the first book in the Nan Sherwood
series by Annie Roe Carr. carries its
heroine in safety through a chain of
varied adventures. In the opening chap
tiers the little family of Amity street are
even more heavenly than one might ex-
pect from their amiable environment.
The mother, being a Southerner, always
calls people "honey" of course, while the
little lady" herself. with her somewhat
nonOtOnOus tinkle of gay laughter is
known as ''Momsey' to Nan and her
"Papa Sherwood"
Just in time to avert distressing labor
problem situation a fortune looms up
from great-unele in Scotland and brings
within reach the long coveted sea voyage
to save "Momsey's" life. Nan is not al
lowed to accompany her parents abroad
but is sent to relatives at Pine Camp in
Michigan for some reason mysterious to
the reader at first, but as it develops
later very obviously to teach other little
girls how to meet wildcats, wilderness
fires and hideous backwoods blood and
kin with hearts of gold.
After having deftly rescued large
boy from drowning under broken ice and
her young lumberman cousin from
roasting grave in "geyser of fire. and
casually adjusting the numberless in
superable difficulties that she is fortunate
enough to come upon one would think
that Nan Sherwoods experiences in the
conventional boarding school for which
she is bound might be something of an
anti-climax. However, we feel sure that
she is born for adventures.
1t seems a pity that the illustrations
are unsigned, but an artist who can grasp
the spirit of the author as this illustrator
does in the wild scene where Tom and
Nan pass practically unscathed through
the "fiery ealdron" of the burning will
derness cannot long remain unknown.

lack Of his hand was q miracle. When
we explain hon it grew there we merely
add hypothesis to ignorance.
He looked on the world with fhe eyes
of an infant staring at a brass button.
The word commonplace" was not in his

Visits to Walt Whitman"
And this is why Visits to Wall Whit
man, by ]. johnson, M. D., and j. w.
Wallace, is, like all the gossip and con-
versations that Horace Traubel has col
leeted about him, of such great interest to
those who know and feel the greatness of
the seer of Camden. We have here the
daily life of god-a very human god, a
god of tramways, ferryboats, mustard
plasters, election bets and endless post
cards.
Related of any other man of lesser
uniquencss than Whitman these notes and
reportOrial squibs would be of no inter-
est whatsoever. But humanity has an In
durable, healthy curiosity about the Lares
and Penates and the daily nothings of its
great products. 1t loves, too, to finger
the ball and chain of the great creators.
Simplicity is the art of concealing
greatness, and in this book nothing is
more astonishing than the evefSdayness
of this man. "All things to all men,"
The authors of this book-who, be-
sides, relate interesting visits to John
Burroughs and Dr. Buckr-have talked
and written to Old Walt down to few
months before his death.
His last postal reads: '

theory worthy our modern times for ct
literature politics and sociology must com
bine all the ulk-people of all lands, the
women not forgetting. But the mustard
plaster on my side is singing & / mus:
stop-Good-bye to ALL W. W."
Hopelessly alive to the end, although
eamoufiaged with mustard plasters!
He was the sanest and hunianest seer
that has walked the planet.

against the rest of the worlds great
nations" is meaningless. If the subma-
rine was all Mr.. Lake says it is Germany
would be able to get from neutral nations
war materials she is sorely in need of,
materials that she only gets now by an
occasional piratical seizure of q defence
less merchantmen in defiance of all inter-
national law.
The great outstanding fact of this war
is that due to the proves of the mighty
English navy" the German navy is barred
from blue water and German merchant
ships have not crossed one of the Seven
Seas since August, 1914 And the only
apology Mr.. Lake has to make for the
outrageous brutalities of the German sub
marine pirates (all of whom are officers
and men of the German navy is that the
destruction of merchantmen .and their
crews and Passengers as welp' is that
"this latter policy is much to be re-
GREETED"
As for the looseness of statement. about
professional matters in the book, Mr.. Lake
states On page 199 that "the effective
range of the modern Whitehead torpedo
is about three miles," while on page 80
he states that the range of these missiles
SIS said to be about five miles," As there
is no mystery as to the fact about the
range of torpedo, there is no excuse in
a book of this character for such a wide
difference of statement.
