Keokuk complained of her slight gain
of 315 people, brit what shock it

Those Of us Who know and love the

them even through the curtain of the
walls Of this great city, just as Kate
Douglas Wiggin pictures them with
the river flowing from the White
Mountains to the Atlantic in a
tempestuous torrent, breaking here
and there into glorious falls of amber
gIlmpscd through snowy foam; its
rapids dash through rocky cliffs
crowned with pine trees, under which
blue harcbclls and rosy columbines
blossom in gay profusion." And we

To our thought the best of the
three stories in this collection is the
second, the we'll known "The Old Pea

JUDGE SHTTE AGAIN

ITO return to New Hampshire. we be-
Aeve that we have come upon one
clue to Judge Henry A Shute's sue
cess a a. humor We read his The
Real Diary Of Real Boy a half-dozen
or so years ago and were glad that
New England could boast Of citizen
qualified to walk in our national pro
cession of authors at the side of Booth
Harrington. "Pluny' and "Penrcd"
would make 8 team Of rrenressibles
And now the Judge is concerned, very
much so in fact, with the problem Of
the amateur farmer. His The Real
Diary of the Worst Farmer (Houghton
Nifflin Company is one prolonged
cackle of laughter from cover to cover.
Yet, and here appears that clue, the
grasp Of this mans hold on your af-
lection is not wholly conta ined in his
remarkable ease in Slipping into the
shoes Of people unlntentionally funny;
it is partly in his ready introduction
of prose passages of sudden beauty.
One is smiling almost audibly over the
Judges ponderous passage on going to
church, and thon, like eleam Of April
comes this sentence, 1.-The sun and the
sounds and the smell Of the earth, and
the little gray bird that threads the
maze of the dead grasses like sprite
make ones heart as light as a boys"
Throwing the antics Of his comedy
against screen decorated with the
scenery Of the southern New Hamp-
shire country, the Judge, in this diary
of eight months Of supposedly recent
year. relates the homely enic Of his
heroic endeavor to be real farmer
The rebellion of vegetables, the crazy
notions and motions of cows, the many
unexpectedly arriving moments of hu-
collie crisis. all made ludlcrous through
their fidelity to the fact Of many
mans experience, come to the surface
! Of sthe pages of this book as bubbles
Of mirth rising to a surface Of serious
ness and breaking in laughter.

ALL-WOOL MORRISON

TT is safe to claim that Holman Day
had Augusta, Me, in mind when he
wrote All Wool Morrison (Harper's)
The structure If this novel is reared on
q foundation based in the idea that the
water rights of a great state are or
should be controlled by the will Of the
people. Stewart Morrison, owner Of a
wool mill and Mayor Of the city of
Marion, the capital Of the state in
volved, decides to oppose Senator Cor
son and Governor North, who are plot
ting to deliver the water power of the
commonwealth over to interests largely
alien. It is case OF much watorod
stock, and Morrison, who Is fighter.
refuses with heat to come IN on anr
deal that is closed behind Locked doors.
Morrison loves Lana Corson, daurh-
ter Of the Senator, and her perplexity
as TO his decidedly mysterious actions
on the night before North's Inaugural
ton gives a needed dash Of expectancy
to the sauce of this stirring story. It
happens that. like the late Albany case
of unseated Socialists, few men Of
Red tendencies have been recently
elected to the State Legislature, but
have been counted out by the hire.ircs
ot North and Corson ard their active
partlsans. 4 mob gathers, attacks
Senator Corson's home during a recer-
ton, and then marches to the CAPITOL
with malicious intent Morrison sees a
chance to play desperate game and,
pocketing the Senator and the Cover
nor in room Of the Capitol, he has
himself sworn in as Governor pro tenn.
during the intcrrcgnum between mid
night and 10:30 a M, when North is
TO take the oath as Governor. Then
he goes over into the night with two
1rothy gentlemen under guard behind
HIM, and gets control OF The mob by a
clever display of audacity, argument
and physical strength. He saves his
s'nte from night OF disgrace.
Then, Of course, come reconciliations
oil round and Lana in the arms Of her
Stewart. This is purely an American
story full Of snap and go, distinctly
