THE NEW PLAYS
Whhl Of New York"
Gay and Dazzling

Our old love, "The Belle OF New

up as "The Whirl OF New York" and
made hit as big as the Winter Gar

Where a filtration

A RECKLESS PURITAN. BY Mrs. Vic

pany.
Mrs. Rickard is a skilled technician

ing an up to date variant of more or
less standardized British fiction-the
after the war problem novel, dealing
with English society" life. She ap-
proaches it usually from Celtic view
point, being Irish In her sympathies.
1t makes rather depressing picture,
doubtless with much of truth in 1t,
but perhaps not quite SO comprehen-
sive as it pretends to be. This story
is the record of experience of young
Irish girl, Georgia Desmond, who mar
ries one Eustace Clint. a somewhat
damaged English war veteran-dam-
aged psychically, and hardly the hus-
band for woman with so much con-
science as Georgia carries. She is
sprightly enough, but fundamentally
Puritanic. Life In the smart set"
does not suit her, and her husbands

"She looked back upon her own past
fiirtations," when things are coming
to crisis. "and sighed. What fun they
had been. But here a filtration was
labyrinthine performance. leading
to queer underground burrows. !.
Then there was Religion. Georgia was
Protestant. She still went regularly
to church and said her prayers, .
and she would have liked Clint to go
with her, but he always made an ex-
cuse. The truth was they did not be-
lieve in anything except motor cars
and some main political principl.
which was established to keep out the
hungry masses"
SO she runs away. goes into domes-
tic service and enters upon diversity
of rather melodramatic adventures.
Eventually the Objectionable husband
is removed, the right man" turns up
and all ends happily. 1t is a very well
done novel excellent of It's kind.

James Hay, Jr.'

reader can foresee exactly what is
coming. Perhaps some of the clever
ness of it lies just there. You are
warned TO guess that In such and
such a chapter the villain is to be
foiled again, and when you get there
he is properly foiled, precisely accord
ing to schedule. with just enough of
an element of surprise in the ways
of his foiling to keep you interested.
Mr.. lie Queux is master of direct
unhampered narrative, with something
of the magic of an Arabian Nights
story teller about it.
The hero of this story starts in
London gutter, playing his violin for
chance pennies, and ends Count of
the Russian Empire, rich, and the
husband of a very beautiful Russian
Princess. On the way up he serves
as a secret agent of the Car, and
there is an abundance of stratagem,
poison, kidnapping, disguise, hair
breadth escapes, &c. The actors also
have sufficient resemblance to human
beings to make them plausible. 1t Is
sound literary craftsmanship.

THE PAGAN MADONNA. BY Harold
MacGrath. Doubleday. Page & Co.
TN his latest novel Harold Mac
Grath goes far afeld for his set
ting. and his plot Is one which
defies the SNUG monotony Of the
twentieth century. His title Is chosen
from Stevenson's sounding phrase,
Chance, the blind madonna of the
pagan" His story moves with all the
rapidity of the tropic monsoon. which
he describes and shows how fate plays
unexpected but not unkindly tricks.
The villain is one Cunningham, a
man who likes adventure for its own
sake and likes it better when he can
bid defiance to organized society. He
has heard of place where pearls can
be found, and In order to reach IL he
takes possession of a yacht belonging
to Cleigh, a millionaire who specialized
in buying smuggled works Of art.
The tolls of fate have enmeshed Miss
Jane Norman and Cleigh's son in their
net, and they are unwillingly pas
sengers upon the strange voyage.

Jude, Satan's sister. who wants to be

with her first appearance the foolish
author admits that It is her clothes

things which seem 10 show the au-

more than that. being entitled to rank
as a historical novel, of the interpre-
tative, descriptive type, and also as
character, Chinese civilization and its
ideals to the Western mind.
As story it moves. with an abun-
dance of stirring events, to fitting
dramatic crisis The narrative begins
with a shipload of assorted passengers
on their way up the mighty Yangtze
River. The cast includes wander
ing American multi-mi lionaire, his
somewhat dissolute son, who is, never
theless, a good deal OF man: the
Viceroy of the province, with his beau
tiful daughter. who has been educated
In America; Doane. who is mate of the
ship. and string Of criminal adven-
turers, including a phenomenally cool
young woman. The revolution hap
pens. the ship is burned after a spec
tacular fight. and there is a fine net
work of intrigues and counterplots.
But IL is more interesting as an at
tempt 10 interpret the East to Ameri-
can readers. Mr.. Merwin Is at home
in the theme this Is a sequel TO pre-
vious novels and an expansion Of
theses he has stated in other books
He believes not only that we have
much to learn from the Chinese but
that the future concord and prosper
ity of the world must depend in no
small degree upon the possibility OF
reciprocal understanding between East
and West He finds in the Chinese
Character elements that our own civil
ization lacks. Among these are a GER

mind and a difference in artistic per-
ceptions and modes of expression He
evidently intends the marriage OF his
hero. Doane, with the Manchu girl as
symbol of possible union In effort
and understanding between the races,

His historical background. with the
occasional use of real personages and
familiar characters. is very well man
AGED. Nor does he. on the whole. over
do his admiration for the good things
In Chinese life. The picture Is pretty
well rounded out. with a wealth of de-
tan. though its perspective Is little
inclined to the Oriental rather than
TO our more sternly mathematical lines
OF drawing. The book Is full of sug-
gestion and will bear careful reading.
