our Allies might fight on. firsthand
story, sufficient to make every one of
US sit up and take notice. comes
TO our attention. Fighting Starva-

the pitiable condition of the people OF

again called to the attention of the
weIl-fed American. Vernon Kellogg,
a member of the commission for the
relief of Belgium. has. We judge after
a perusal of his book. an insight into
these conditions that only a man who

us ample food for thought in his
book. Doubleday and Page are the
publishers and the book sells for $l.25

Letters from an American Soldier
to His Father.

It
Curtis Wheeler, second lieutenant OF
Field Artillery u. S. r. (son of Ed
ward ]. Wheeler. at one time editor
Of the Literary Digest and now presi-
dent and editor OF Current Opinion),
has furnished US a series of delight
fully interesting missives written by
himself while in France addressed to
his father. Bobbs-Merrill OF Indian
apolis are the publishers.
These letters appeared in 1t whee-
ler's book just as he wrote them.
They have not been edited. To have
done so would have been only to lose
much of the humanely interesting
character of the letters. Very few
men who have gone abroad to enter
the shadow of the valley Of death
have written as their hearts have
dictated. There is an appeal about
these letters that cannot be resisted.

Aircraft and Submarines.

Aircraft and Submarines.
Two essentially American war
weapons. the airplane and the sub
marine, will win or lose the war, or
at least aid materially In doing so.
Not many of us know much about
these two deadly devices. Willis J.
Abbot has written a very interesting
book called aircraft and Subma-
rines," published by G.. p. Putnam's
Sons (s3.50 net. and in so doing Mr..
Abbot has told US more interesting
facts than has any other writer on
these two subjects. 1t Is rarely that
a man with the mechanical turn OF
mind can do much in putting his
thoughts in writing, but Mr.. Abbot
has succeeded very well. He not only
knows his subject. but is able to put
il In a form which only a dullard
could fail TO understand. ~
The War and After.
Sir Oliver Lodge. F. r. s.. principal
of the University OF Birmingham,
England, long known as a leader in
psychical research, has contributed q
remarkable book. The War and
After" George H. Doran Company.
n. Y, 81 nett the like Of which we
have yet to see.
The elements OF strength and weak
ness OF the German character are
treated by Sir oliver in a manner
unusually clear. Aside from this he
has written about a subject Of vital
importance to not only the allied
countries. but to America, that Of
social unrest following the war.
Social reform, disarmament. ma
tional rearrangement and similar
topics which will compel The attention
and energies of our ablest men when
peace is concluded. are discussed
thoroughly and from every angle.
Strange to say. Sir Oliver has also
undertaken to tell US about the the
ory of nonresistance. Practical sug-
gestions and remedies for conditions
arising after the war abound in the
book.

The Interpretation of the Cards.
'Its like a pack of cards." said
Bernard Adams. author of Nothing
Of Importance" (McBride), when a
friend asked him what the war was
like. Spades represent the duIlness.
mud. weariness and sordidness.
Clubs stand for another side. the
humor, the cheerfulness. the jollity.
and good-fellowship. In diamonds !
see the glitter Of excitement and ad-
venture. Hearts are a tragic suit
Of agony, horror and death. And TO
each man the invisible dealer gives
a succession of cards; sometimes they
seem all black: sometimes they are
red and black alternately; and at
times they come red, red, red; and
at the end is the ace of hearts" The
ace OF hearts came to Lieutenant
Adams shortly after the writing of
this book. He was killed leading a
charge early in February, 1917.
