J. c.. Snaith, What Are You Giving Us?

T C. SNAITH'S newly Published novel
y. has a portentous if somewhat
cryptic title. The Time SpiT::.. turns out
to mean the spirit of the times In Eng
land, revealed neither originally nor ex-
clusively to Mr.. Snaith as a breaking
down of the barriers Of class. Democracy
is the Word of the Hour, says the pub
Usher. You naturally expect to find Nh.
Snaith going Wells one better than Kipps,
and having read The Sailor you back him
to do it. So doubtless would Mr.. Wells,
who is not proud Of Kipps.
Alas for high hopes and cordial expec-
tations! 1t is true that Mr. Snaith keeps
his social undertaking more or less on his
conscience, that the tale has a Duke and
a London bobby, both with strong class
feeling against a threatened misalliance
between their houses, and that the author
has feelings or views of his own and airs
them now and then. But since the 6obby's
foster daughter, stage favorite TO boot,
turns out TO be the Dukes owr child by
lawful if secret marriage, the happy
ending leaves Democracy VS.. Glass pretty
much where it found it.
ASIDE from these profundities, which
are nowhere beyond the average school
girls depth, The Time Spirit is a per-
functory romance Of the antimacassar
variety. its characters are of warranted
East Lvuneage. its plot would make a
perfectly lovely scenario for Mary Pick

n NATION AT BAY is the narrative
"A Of the experiences of Mrs. Ruth s.
Farnam, or Sergeant Farnam Of the Ser
bian army, one of the most attractive and
eloquent of the women war speakers now
in this country Mrs. Farnam is, we IN
derstand, the only American woman who
holds the distinction Of having been made
an officer in any of the allied armies. She
wears the medals of the Order of st.
Sava, the Order of Kossovo and the Order
of the Serbian Red Cross. A woman Of
abundant physical strength and vitality,
much personal charm and a quick
sympathy, Sergeant Farnam belongs to
that honorable band of pioneers, the
American women who in the first years
of the war devoted themselves with such
gallant unselfshness to the alienation Of
misery in Europe, both among the SOL
diers and the civilians.
A Champion of Serbia.
Mrs. Farnam's book is simple and in
teresting. She has more oratorical than
literary skill, but this is not altogether
TO the disadvantage of book such as hers
is. Her attitude, naturally, toward Ser
bia is one of unqualified admiration and
passionate defence. And whatever expert
students of Balkan affairs may decide as
to the extent of the guilt of Serbia in STIR
ring up Pan Serbian trouble in the period
just preceding the great cataclysm, it can
not be denied that no small country ever
defended itself more bravely or suffered
more horribly than Serbia has
That the relief of Serbia never assumed
the magnificent proportions of the Belgian
relief in the United States was due partly
to the inaccessibility of the country and
partly to the hay idea Of most Americans
concerning the Balkans and an unreason-
ing resentment because Serb at Serajevo
had been the ostensible means of letting
bloodshed loose upon the world. We have
progressed in our knowledge of European
politics in four years. Most of us now can
differentiate between Rumanian, a Bull
garian and Serbian, and will willingly
concur in Mrs. Farnam's estimate of the
Serbs as brave, honest and industrious, a
race In whom hard work and simple living
have developed a physique with unsur-
passed powers of endurance. Nurses in
the army hospitals of Europe have fire.

quickly toareatment and convalesces so
