 By Clarence w. Barron Houghton Milf lin company, publishers, Boston,
 War Finance by Clarence w. Bar ron is an Illuminating analysis of the fi- nancial aspects of war and reconstruc- tion written for wide popular reading by the publishers of Boston News Bureau the Wall Street Journal and the Phila- delphia News Bureau. In The Auda- cious War9 (published in 19l5), MT. Bar TOT considered from a business viewpoint the commercial causes, financial aspects and cost in men and money of the first six months of the conflict. His new book is the result of a recent trip abroad flor first-hand investigation of financial conditions in connection with the war and the period after the war. Among the topics he discusses are international ex- change, the dangers of peace, the weap- ons of Germany, cost and indernnltles. etc.
 The keystone of reconstruction is fl- nance, and nowhere can more iilumi- mating or understandable discussion or this aspect of the subject be found than in MT Barrons book.

THE FOUNDER"
By Arthur Hodges-Houghton Muffin

DJ <AIlHuI I1odSSS--flOuSnlOI
 company. publishers, Boston.
 The Bounder," a new novel by the author of/"Pincus Hood, is a most sue cessfu depletion of Bohemian New York life, written with the clear seeing sanity, detached humor, freedom from sentiment tality, that the younger English novel, ists, like Arnold Bennett, Compton Mac kenZie and J. D. Hereford have brought to the portrayal of British life.
 The inmates of the Kilkenny" a mediocre apartment house, furnish the author variety of typically American aracters-American in their tastes, their amusements, and their freedom The inha abitants of the Kilkenny are Bohemian, but-and the author brings out the contrast strikingly-their regard for the fundamentals of moral law is far more profound than that of the upper class.
 There are clear fresh ideas in MT Hodges book: there are vivid. thoroughly human characters; and there is true hu- man psychology Above all, the element of love is handled surely with touch of realism new to American fiction. And although the book contains the material of tragedy, it is handled always in the true "comic spirit" the spirit of Moliere and Meredith.
