"Patricia Brent, Spinster"
Rv CONSTANCE MURRAY GREENE

THOSE playful fellows who write the
i Jacket covers for our novels tell us
that the identity Of The author of Patricia
Brent, Spinster, is arousing the keenest
speculation; that every one in London is
asking "Who wrote itf'
What-cvcry Onc' Well, nearly every
one. As a matter of fact, and despite the
Londoners, there has not been within our
memory an instance where the identity of
an author mattered less.
You will find the book thoroughly good
fun, lively, humorous, easy and entirely
inofrensive: but there will not be the
tinicst prick of curiosity concerning its
authorship. We know that the person
who wrote it had perfectly fine time
doing it, that reading it is the incest sort
Of n game; and that anything more is un
necessary.

tary living in London boarding house

doctor Danny"

THE charm which inheres in every
L thing Irish is abundantly present
in Doctor DAMN. n new volume of stories
and sketches of ireland by Ruth Sawyer
MRS. Albert G. Durand). These little
pictures of life as it probably never WINS
IN ireland or elsewhere combine a fancl-
full humor with sympathetic tenderness
and are delightful to read. They are
poetic idcalizations of Irish life rather
than realistic representations. They seem
a bit too scntimpntalizcd to be quite life
like. They possess considerable charm,
vet something of the magic yanishes after
the 6rst reading. One does not find the
same pleasure in n second perusal that he
found in The first.
They do not give one the sense of re-
atty that Rupert IIughcs's stories about
the Irish people in New York, for III
stance, impart. There Is convincing
actualiiy, an IrishneSs about the Irish
folk Hughes tells about, who have ex
changed tle song Of the Sidhe for the
thunder of the elevated trains, that Is
rare, and that Doctor Danny does not
quite posscss. But for all that this book
is pleasant to read, both as regards the
matter md the manner of its contents.
Tho mechanical makeup Is unusually ar
tistic and the illustrations by J. Scott
Williams are charming.
mn L, hoo tho t-nltttnn
are separate, yet the characters and Incl
dents are all associated IN some way with
Doctor Danny, the beloved physician of
n certain impoverished section of Ireland.
Character is stressed here more. than
action, and the plot is sometimes slight,
but the persons seem distinct and the at
mosphere readable though not actually
real. One reads of creepy stools, of lazy
bushes and Of fairies and all the delight
full things associated with Irish peasant
life. The marquis webs barefoot girl

yet they are happy. Tho pauper rises
from the bed where he is supposedly
diving and steals away with the money
contributed for his burying-quitc with
the readers approval. Even death, as 1T
comes TO the old physician, is the happy
ending. But life, even in ireland, is not
rounded off so neatly as these stories
would have us believe.
There is a pleasing variety of char
actors in these stories, whore Padraie. the

The Yankee Fleet
in French Waters

TT is not the least of the things 10 the
l. credit of the United States Navy in
its operations in French waters since
May, 1917, that il can inspire iandsman
10 write such n thrilling book as Reginald
Wright Kaufman has done in Our Nary
at Work, which describes the Yankee
Fleet" in French waters, its patrol work,
its convoy duty, its submarine hunting, its
marines ashore and its flying men in the
air, together with its acts Of business that
are simply taken as a part of the days
work.
Mr. Kaufman divides his stories into
FIVE parts. The first describes the work
of the patrol feet, chiefly made mp Of
converted seagoing yachts and nick
named the Suicide Fleet" specially, d.
verting chapter being that devoted to The
College Kids and Their Shipmdies. One
Of The most extraordinary episodes noted
here is quoted from the naive letter Of a
college kid" serving ON the converted
yacht Vidette who saw a dead elephant
"full Of holes floating ON the sea. 1t
was assumed to be the visible remains Of
some ship bringing animals from Africa
for a circus, one of the strangest evidences
of the war that one ship at least was not
sunk without trace"
A tale of rare rpsourcefulness and dis
cipline is that of the enlisted man who
climbed on a floating ammunition box
from a torpcdOed ship, and when he sew
n destroyer coming to pick him up soma
phored with his arms 10 the destroyer
that there was a live shell in the box
and that the destroyer should come along
side him carefully! The chapter devoted
10 the work Of the wireless men and In
telligence officers in the base headquarters
is the most original one in the book, and
it is a phase Of our navy's activities in
France never described before in print.
Every real sailorman will rejoice over
the chapter he gives TO the exploit of
Alexis Pulu Hen, Quartermaster, second
class, Of the French navy, who actually
sailed a broken down sixty foot motor
boat from a point somewhere east OF
Bermuda to the Azores. Is it any won-
der our own Admiral Wilson shook hands
with Quartermastcr Hen and said to him:

astonished he did not think 10 pinch his

on the scene; Sir Edgar Brenton appears
10 be the murdered-but hold, so does
Jennifcr Wynne, her brother Bobby
Wynnc, DIR. VERBAL, and Lady Brcnton,
who by some oversight is omitted from
the list of characters which prcfaces the
story. This is very singular, since things
look very bad for Lady Brenton for n
while, for she walked in her sleep and
wore n gilt-mesIicd scarf just like the one
Lady Margaret owned.
The plot of The R'diic Of the Pur
pie Emperor is more involved and more
confused than that Of the opera of
"Trovatorc," which every one agrees no
one ever understood. Poor Inspector
Narkom of Scotland Yard of course he
turns UPS fair puzzled over the

unique in criminal fiction, of the finding

Purists in criminal fiction may not find

is no gainsaying the quality of the book

one that unless he has two hours 10 spare

bound to suffer through neglect. Cleek s
