disposition, at one time he suddenly
decided, when living in New York, to
go to Washington, and set forth on
foot, as this method of travel seemed
to him much more interesting than
by rail.
Later he wandered across the
ocean, knocked about the Balkans a
little, and at last settled down in
France, where he married a French
girl. During the great war he served
a long and arduous term as driver
of the Red Cross ambulance, and in
cidentally wrote hts Rhymes of

ably stands among the six most
widely read in the English language
about the great war. Mr.. Service
spends part of his time in Paris and
part in Monte Carlo. He has de-

the pleasures of that gamblers para

could evolve and carry out. 1t would
be unfair to disclose the system, but
it may be said that whoever loses
Mr.. Service does not.
Recently Mr.. Service and his fam
lily returned to this country, travelled
around awhile and finally wandered
as far as Tahiti. The author felt in
clined to continue his wanderings to
New Guinea, Borneo and wherever
he could find new and wild country
to visit. But as his family do not
wholly share his rolling stone pro-

York, where he has in the hands of
his publishers a novel dealing with

HolD. is an idyll of young love. That,
we believe, is one of the hardest
things in the world to write. NJ.
ROLAND has done it surprisingly
well. 1t demands poetry from a
novelist, for one thing, and it de-
mands restraint for another.
1t is not to our liking to draw too
often invidious comparisons be-
tween the work of Europeans and
OF our own men, but We are unable
to recall at the moment single in
stance in which story of the type
of Pierre and Luce" has been sue
cessfully handled by an American.
In it's lyric quality it strongly re-
sembles that part of "The Ordeal of
Richard Feverel," in which Meredith
describes the growth of love between
Richard and Lucy. M. ROLAND per-
haps keeps his feet little closer to
earth, but the rapture is there just
the same.
The war is a background for the
book, dark menace that hangs over
the heads of these two children.
Pierre is Is, and is to be called to
the colors in six months. Luce is a
little younger. The story of how
they grasped eagerly for the bit of
happiness that seemed assured is
beautifully told, simply and with
great tenderness Charles de Kay's
translation appears to be excellent.
For the benefit of those who think
of French love stories as being only
of one kind, we quote from NJ. Rol-
land: "In the heart of Paris there
are provinces most naive, little
gardens as of cloisters, pure eX-
istences as of springs. Paris permits
herself to be betrayed by her litera-
ture. Those who speak in her name
are the most soiled of all. And be-
sides, one only knows too well that
false human consideration often
prevents the pure from avowing
their innocence. Pierre did not yet
understand love, and he was deliv-
cred up to the first appeal love
made"

that ranks him among the financially
successful adventures to the Klon-

Having suffered the hardships and
shared the perils of the crowd who
thronged to the Klondike in '9S,
Robert William Service came at last
to the stage where it was necessary
to rely on something more tangible
than gold mining for three meals a
day. Having served an apprentice

r T is. Of course. no news that H. G..
Wells has written another
book. That is one of the ac-
cepted occurrences of living, a thing
as Inevitable as sunrise or the morn
ing paper. The books Of Wells follow
one another without perceptible in
terruption, as day follows night. But
this book, "The Sacred Places of the
Heart" (Macmillan). seems to us to
announce that Wells. the novelist, is
definitely and irretrievably dead.
We are aware that autopsies have
been held over him before. Some
where back in the MesoZoic period
somebody proclaimed that Mr.. Wells
was forgetting the functions of the
novelist in the functions of the
prophet. The Transformation has
been gradual, il it has been trans
formation at all. From the first time
he sat down to write serious novel
we suspect that in the foreground Of
Mr.. Wells's mind was the ethical or
sociological idea about which he
wished to unburden himself, and
forming dimly back of that the
people who were to give this idea
the color and motion OF life.
But not until we read "The Secret
Places Of the Heart" did we find
Wells's interest in the characters of
his story shrunk to such a degree
that he appears to use them as they
might be used in Socratic dialogue,
merely to provide for the expansion
of the idea that grips him. There
has been evidence enough in the past
that he can work creatively in the
novel when he will. Even so late as
Joan and Peter" which for his pur-
pose was tract on education, he
gave body and breath to his people.

speaking:

Sir Richmond, member of a Brit
ish fuel commission. is consulting DIR.
Martineau about his mental state.
His work is tearing him to pieces.
The physician suggests that they go
off together on motor trip and dis
cuss Sir Richmond's trouble on the
way. Feminine entanglements, it ap-
pears, are the chief source of Sir
Richmond's trouble. Interest in a
woman, he argues, is a necessary re-
taxation from his work. But he and
his wife have drifted apart. and his
latest ENHANCEMENT is wearing him
down because the woman is Jealous
of his work.
Sir Richmond's part in the crea-
tion Of the ordered world. as he sees
it, lies in fuel. He is fighting the
other members of the commission.
He wants to get the whole business
of the worlds fuel discussed and re-
ported upon as one affair-so that
some day it may be handled as one

Is Wells Muddling?

NT E carried away the impression
w that the more Wells thinks
OF the necessity for ironing out the
creases in this much wrinkled globe.
Of banishing the word "muddle" from
its vocabulary, the more muddled i'm
mind he becomes himself. He has
never been troubled by the fear
of inconsistency, which Emerson, we
think, referred to as "that bugbear
of little minds."' One book sometimes
crossed the track of another, but
now he doubles back on himself in
the scope of single volume.
II. G. Wells has long been one of
our chief admirations. When we
were in college he was the brightest
star in the armament for most of
us. He still holds a powerful sway
over thousands of minds. But at
times in ''The Secret Places of the
Heart" we were chilled suddenly by
the apprehension that if he doesn't
watch out, the man of whom it has
always been said that he cannot be
uninteresting may some day have
become a garrulous old bore.

make West Florida famous throughout
the country
AS everyone knows, who has the most
academic knowledge of fruit culture, the
BURBERRY is a fruit which is produced
over a very wide section of the United
States, but the development of the fruit
in this section has proven that for some
reason, climatic, no doubt, the cultivated
BURBERRY of West Florida production, has
a peculiar ''meatiness" and deiiciousness
Of flavor net possessed by the biueberries
Of other sections of the country.
In conclusion: The question naturally
arises: Is the father of the blueberry in
dustry Of West Florida a scientist?
My answer is: No, not in the sense that
Luther Burbank is a scientist.
He is just a common, ordinary, but
prodidgiously Industrious. intensely prac-
teal intelligent Florida Cracker, who was
endowed by the Creator with really I'M
COMFY quality Of stick-to-itveness and
common sense, plus vision.
And Moses Asbury Sapps vision has
come true!
Through his intelligence; his industry;
his unyielding tenacity OF purpose. an in
dustry has been created here in West
Florida, which. hitched to the ascending
star Of the culture of Satsuma oranges,
means a future for this section which
words are impotent to reflect.
And NJ A. Sapp is an enthusiastic
convert to the Satsuma orange as he was
thirty. years ago, fer the future Of the
BURBERRY and is going to prove his faith
in the twain next spring by planting a
grove Of this hardy citrus fruit imme-
diately alongside his BURBERRY orchard.
