Tom Latham

I0m GaLndln
AS oftimes happens, as we were
talking of Thomas Latham he
came i'm. He seemed to be shy
at first and perhaps that Is one
OF the things which made me
think he was SO much like my
husband. Hal always impressed
a woman as being shy on first
acquaintance. In appearance he

being much taller and more mus
cular.
"Alicia you are going TO lunch
with us, aren't your"
''Do You think I had better?
Won't people see us and talk2"
"Oh. no. You haven't been
around New York for long time
now. And people forget quickly,
Why should they remember YOU
Alix?"
.He is trying to make out that
YOU are vain, Mrs. Hammersly,'
said Tom Latham.
"She was when we were kids
together. Tom. She was prouder,
then. to have you notice her heavy
bralds Of hair than she was hurt
when you pulled them.
ooh. do you remember that
Alixg" said Tom Latham drop
ping into the childhood names
most easily.
mot until Duane reminded me
Of II in describing you" l said
coldly. feeling that Latham de-
served a good share of the blame
for Duane's escapade.
The little shrug with which
Tom Latham turned away was so
much like Hal that | could almost
have screamed. Until this mo-
ment I had congratulated myself
that my memory had been worn
so full Of gaps that it no longer

SPOILS OF THE STRONG

A CCORD1NG to tho authors preface,
= this book Is s'part Of thought
trilogy, in which tho three great funda-
mentals Of life arc severally presented" {"
This concluding volume of go sweeping
a trilosy, tho author says, presents
the relation Of tho individual toward tho
divine"
II It were not for so pretentious a
preface, tho avera 20 reader might bo
inclined TO accept tho book as falling
under tho general classification Of an
old-fashioned love story, with some
bridge whist. motors and other things
thrown In to give it modernity. There
is q romantic Southern setting, and a
handsome young poet, Godfrey Baylor,
who writes surprising verse which the
author does not reprint for ones edi-
fcation. Tho heroine, Evelyn Tyler, Is
"one OF threo Kentucky sisters to whom
certain conspcuousness had attached

THE WESTERN NOVEL

VTHE ubiquitous Western novel is ca
- pably represented by Cow Country.
B. M. Bowcr, who Is really q woman,
has been writing Western novels for so
long that she has developed skill
that genuinely commands respect.
Cow Country may differ in no great
degree from that authors previous
Sky Rider OF The Quirs, but the charm
of this sort Of novel lies not in its
novelty but in the tenacity with which
1t holds to tradition. Tho young,
wild-riding cowpuncher, slow Of
speech and swift with his gun, irrcv-
erent In his humor and unfailingly
chivalrous, Is the hero Of our national
myth, and we ask no more than that
he be preserved to Us in his perennial
youth. Bud Birnie, the hedgling son
OF the rich herdsman, who scorns to
rest on his fathers success but goes
out to seek his own fortune, Is Of the
breed Of princes in disguise. Mrs.
Bower has the gift Of swift and smooth
narrative. Her dialogue is fluent, her
episodes arc crisp and they lock neat
ly together, and the story Of how her
hc~o staked his three horses against
tho guile Of strangers, how he fought
for the girl and won makes a swift and
entertaining tale.
