SOUSE SEAS!
Intrepid Traprock Explores the
FiIberts for Hissclf.

The Cruise of the Kawa. BY
Walter e. Traprock. (Putnam's
Sons.)
Hay! says Don Fulano.
I payed no tention.
Hay you! am talking to you, he
yells.
don't understand horse talk, ]
replies.
Well, he goes on, see can you un-
derstand this. Read this book and
write me a review of two hundred
and so words.
I cant, AYERS.
Then write criticism, he orders.
What's the difference, asks.
Don't you know, he queries.
No, ] fires back.
What did they learn you at
school, he questions.
Grammer and spelling, answers.
Humph! he humps, reaching for
his Camels.
The book he was referring to was
1.-THE Cruise of the Kawa," which
he states Is n burlesque on the
Souse Seas literature which we
have been surfaced with recent,
and says I thought burlesque
wasn't popular no moro since. the
musickle comedys has went them
one better in public exposure, but
ne says that Is a matter of neither
here nor there, meaning here IN
Albuquerque, I reckon.
So took the book and done with
Il what no book reviewer probly
ever done before, namely. I read 1t,
and / done 1t in what would be one
setting for most people but In my
case was one laying. And the
story Is what Don Fulano wants l
should tell you about.
Well, it ems that the arthur
who Is a fellow named Traprock
has got tired of reading about the
Souse Seas since we are supposed
to be under prohibition, so he fitted
up n yawl, which is a southern pro-
noun for boat. and started out Tor
hissef. -
After being buffeted (the ct" is
silent, for drinking purposes) the
crew of the cruiser sighted the FIJI
bert Islands, just off the coast OF
the Phullaprunes. I should judge
in the Sea of Imagination. The
exact location may never be known,
as the maps was lost, and the com
pass flower. a rare specimen OF the
tropics, in spite of loving and con-
slant attention. sickened and died.
This was the final blow before the
big storm come up. -.
To review the book would spoil
for YOU the entertainments bit or
reading I have done since / quit
reading my own works To criti-
cize the book would be less than
majesty.
But let me say before I fall vic
tim to Don Fulano's blue pencil,
that 1.-THE Cruise OF the Kawa' is
so full of witten humor that my
pleurisy hurt me continuous from
laughing throughout the whole
story.
Two hundred and so words. my
eye! He couldn't do 1t hisself. Next
time maybe I'll do better. as they
do say practice makes perfeck.

TOMMY ATKINS
Britain In War and Her Sporting
Fighters.

The Willing Horse. by Ian Hay.
(Houghton Mifflin.)
Major Beth has done the best
story of the war / have read. THE
Willing Horse" (Houghton Milf
film, s2) is a delightful novel about
one Thomas Atkins, Esquire.
Ian Hay Is a writer with a
charming manner. He tells every
thing in the unapproved fashion OF
literary sanity and verbal econo-
my. He Is slyly humorous. and al
though he at times sounds like
such hearty fellows as Richard
Harding Davis and Hugh Walpole,
he is never as offensive In the
usual periods Of describing friend
hero as "clean-cut."
Roy Brine. had been plucked
out of Elton that Christmas. Three
months of intensive culture
had not affected his appearance.
which was healthy, nor his snub-
nose nor his cheerful grin. nor the
slight curl in his hair, of which his
mother had once been so proud
and of which he was still so
ashamed
The title of the book signifies
the. British soldier, who was
veritable willing horse" The
complete ana noble scorn of the
persons who "ditched" the war
and engaged in Important civilian
work" Is apparent throughout the
book.
The heroine subjects herself to
all manner of hard work and
trouble simply because she felt
that she was not doing enough.
She finally goes on the stage as
a chorus girl in the evenings to
support herself, and works in the
canteen during the day. Her hor-
rified Christian progenitor care
fully crosses her name out of the
birth-ltst In the family Bible. What
an anathema! But she doesn't
care and rooms with an adorable
little dancer.
Roy Birnie gets into the war,
and being nineteen, falls In love
with Marjorie Clegg, (heroine). He
forgets to marry her, and attends
to that matter on his second leave.
On his third leave, he returns,
wounded and exuding parental dig
nifty and pride.
OF course. there is the eccentric
cabinet minister, who is little
cherub incognito. He sends the
heroine ten pounds in the nick OF
time, and Is always foreseeing what
she will need, and all. He hates
the kaiser, and says so, although
he once entertained him at din
ner.
Captain Beth cannot quite bring
himself to the point oe swearing
in full. On page $40 someone says
something is id" so and so.
This Is a small fault, though. DR..
Fl. B. Wright might even say
'd--rn-d."
Ian Hay Is always gentlemanly.
He is always very nice in his
words That is his business, but it
Is unusual to find novelist watch
ing his English. / think this book
Is even better than "Pip," and the
style Is a great improvement over
that found in 1.-THE First Hun
dred Thousand"
The book is not without its al
most tragic episodes. which are
handled In a very pleasing and
gushless manner. p. G. H.
