written Aircraft in War and COM

hensive study of the types of aircraft.
with a comparison of their efficiency
and uses: Aeroplane. airship. Zeppe-
lin. kite-balloon, etc, etc, with illus
trations of the different craft and es-
pecially interesting photographs of
war aeroplanes of different nationali-
ties in action. A history of the de-
velopment of aircraft among the diff
ferent nations is given. followed by
study of their construction in de-
tail. and the story of raids from the
air. The use of aircraft in war has
been the most striking novelty of the
present conflict. No less significant
are its future possibilities in the COM

war. Indeed" says the author. "air-

McFee's .Aliens" Parallels Reports


The much denied but persistent re-
ports that an American airman had
crossed the Atlantic in a plane with
twelve passengers and landed near
London. which have aroused all New
York during the last week, have been
hailed as the answer to Lloyd George $
statement that the Americans would
soon give the Germans the biggest
kind of surprise.
Be that as 1t may. il is known that
Lloyd's refused last year TO risk a
sum of money on the chance of A
transatlantic flight, evidently believ-
ing it possible.
The whole matter brings to mind
the story of Carville's transatlantic
flight which William McFee relates in
his Aliens recently published by
Doubleday. Page & Co. In this vol
ume of sound literary value McFee in
troduced the incident of Carville, a
daredevil sort Of Englishman. cross

hap to his engine. landing at sea just

previous to the war, the author evi-

A New Home Guard Manual.

Home guards and police reserves
everywhere will find the kind of BOOK
they have all been wishing for in the
Police Reserve and Home Defense
Guard Manual which Z. p. Dutton
& Co. have ready for immediate pub
lication. 1t is written by Maj. Will
liam A. Dawkins, commander of the
ninth inspection district. police re-
serve, of the New York City police
department. and Inspector Cornelius
F. Cahalane, who has long been an
important member of the New York
City police force. Among the many
manuals of one or another kind that
have been prepared for the use of the
soldier. this will probably be found to
occupy a favorable position.

When the Somme Ran Red.

The author of this absorbing mar

was a civilian we'll beyond military
age when England entered the war:
but the sight of the devastation and
atrocities committed by the Germans
in Belgium fired him with a deter
mination to enter his country's serv-
ice. After a short course at an off,
GERS training camp he was assigned
to a regiment in France, where he
finally took part in the colossal Brit
ish offensive of the Somme in the
summer of 1916.
Capt Dugmore's narrative is ad-
mira0le in cve'y way-simpie. straight
forward. soldierly. He takes a par
donable pride in the achievements of
his men, who were able after less than
two years of training to meet and
overcome the military machine WHICH
Germany had been welding together
for many decades.
The officers previous experience rs
a big game hunter made him par
ticularly well qualified to instruct the
soldiers in the fine points Of scouting;
and he tells one very amusing story
OF how his lessons in this line were
brought 10 an abrupt close. by an
irate French peasant woman. who
suspected that the creeping soldiers
cherished designs upon her chickens.
Capt. Dugmore describes the battle
of the Somme in all its aspects-glor-
ious, terrible and pitiful. The rain of
shells. the clouds of gas. the desperate
bayonet charges. the wounded men
limping back to the dressing stations.
all go to make up composite picture
of one of the greatest of the wars

The Story Of The Pullman Car.
Very few of us IL any. who have
ridden in a Pullman or slept in a
berth, know much about the origin
or construction of the palatial and
comfortable means OF travel that
has been afforded the American pub
lie for these many years.
Joseph Husband. author of the
story, has of course begun at the
beginning by telling us all about
George Mortimer Pullman who de-
signed and built the first coach Of
the type with which we are all so
familiar. Mr.. Husband tells in de-
tail how the Pullman car came to be
invented and gives a concise history
Of the rise and success of a great
American industry. His book is in

The Soldiers English and italian
Conversation Book.

J. B. Lippincott Company. OF Phila-
delphia have recently published the
Soldiers English and italian Con-
versation Book" a small compact lit
tie volume for the man going to the
front. Nearly every word that SOL
dier would have to use in his get
acquainted exploration in Italy will
be found in 1t.
There is a strong possibility that
American boys may yet fight along
side OF Italy's gallant sons and
book of this sort is just as important
to have along as any other war
time necessity. There have been many
OF these little books in French, but
rarely do We see one in Italian. 1t
will answer every purpose for the
American soldier who finds himself
in Italy unable to understand Italian.
The book sells in cloth for 90 cents
and in limp leather for 20 cents.

Revolution II absorbed, he says, q
notable portion of thinking Russia,
although it never performed the func-
tions Of a party in the parliamentary
sense of the term. 1t did not adopt
the socialistic creed and 1t drew its
recruits from all classes into which
the leaven of liberal thought had per-
meated. 1t did not defend any ono
social caste. but demanded for the
whole Russian people q liberal gov
ernment. OF this factor in Russian
thought and action he says:
"The Russian Liberalism which was
the begetter of the new era has stood
by watching impotently the interna-
tionalist Vaccinations of some and
the German maneuvers Of others. 1t

to begin a struggle which might have
seemed to be a defense Of Its own
interests. But its inactivity does not

of Russians is only too anxious TO

first and foremost and cannot make
head or tail of German MARKHAM
theories. Russian Liberalism is still
a living force which centers round
the Cadet party. which has worked
out in detail, in view of coming
struggles. an agrarian program
which should win over the rural
population. We shall yet find the
Liberals, now contemned as 'burjui,'
sharing with Moderate Socialists the
direction of public affairs. A few
ub-thumpers have been able to de-
ceive Europe about their import
ance by the deafening uproar they
made. The vast majority of Russia
does not sympathise with them. 1t

ment of alteration of which the
feminist propaganda was one OF the
