THE SEARCH. BY Grace Livingstone
Hill. Philadelphia: J. B. Lippincott
Company.
Mrs. Hill has endeavored, In her
latest novel, to depict what un-
doubtedly happened to many boy
caught in the draft during the great
war. Her hero is an entirely like
able young American, neither saint
nor sinner, just the average boy
with whom we are all acquainted.
But the rest of the characters are
divided into people of spotless
purity and people who are as black
as can well be. The author, in an
endeavor to keep the former up to
the highest spiritual level, makes
them appallingly unreal. The other
characters, the bad ones. are wholly
so, possessing not a single redeem
ing trait. They are the most stupid
of villains, their misdeeds are so
apparent and the devices by which
the author reveals their machina-
tions to the hero in time always for
him to triumph, so lacking In
plausibility, that there is never
thrill in the combat between the
pure in heart and the debased.
In some other points, relating to
the peculiarly military side Of the
story, the author discloses un-
familiarity with army routine, such
as, for instance, that soldiers do not
salute in railway trains. But,
though Mrs. Hill has not achieved
what was undoubtedly the high
moral and spiritual purpose Of the
story, it is still clean and sweet,
and, while 1t can do one no par
ticular good to read, 1t can. by no
possibility, do one any HARM
