New Books At
Library Reviewed

Miss Inez Ratekin, librarian of the
Lincoln county library, has handed
this paper the following readable re-
views of four books recently placed
on the shelves of the library.
"Dodsworth" is one Sinclair Lewis
latest novels. Like his other stories
it is a study of character, with every
person, every place, every situation
photographically clear. Samuel Dods-
worth is successful automobile
manufacturer who at fifty goes abroad
for an indefinite holiday with his
wife Fran, beautiful, INDUCED, and a
social climber. Deprived of his alb
sorbing activities, dragged about from
capital to capital, bored and Devil
dered by his wife's new-found friends,
the faithful Sam begins slowlyto real
lie Frans vanity, selfishness and
worse, her infidelity. Finally, when he
see that Fran's folly is beyond the
reach of his patience and self-sacri-
flee he summons courage to leave her
for the peace and happiness which he
has in the meantime found in the
love of another woman. OF more in
terest, even, than Dodsworth's story,
Is the commentary on the difference
between European. and American civ
ilization, conveyed on the thread of
his travels.
"Fish Preferred" is typical Wode-
house book. Imagine the commotion
at Blanding's Castle when its two
most valuable properties were stolen
the Honorable Galahad Threep-
woods manuscript and the pig that
belonged to Sir Gregory Parsloe-
Parsloe Of Matchingham Hall in the
neighboring village of Much Match
ingham. Imagine the complications
when Hugo Carmody and Ronnie Fish
set out to recover these missing valu-
Ables and thereby pick up enough pin
money to finance matrlmony with
Millicent Threepwood and Sue Brown
of the Gaiety. Or when P. Frobisher
Pillbeam, private detective, found his
speech of accusation smothered by a

neatly tossed dish of omelette aux
Or when that naughty
battleship, Lady Constance Keeble,
discovered her favorite niece sitting
in the middle Of rosebush, holding
young man whose only accomplish
ment was his ability to say "Hullo,
hullo, hullo!''. very rapidly.
"This Strange Adventure by Mary
Roberts Rinehart is certainly a
strange adventure into another field
of writing if nothing else. For the
last fifteen years Mrs. Rinehart has
been one of the most popular Ameri-
can novelists. Her novels have DEM
onstrated that mystery, crime and hui
NOR can make an irresistible combina-
ton. With "This Strange Adventure
she makes a clinical survey of the
life of Missile Colfax from shabby
childhood, thru a loveless marriage,
to her futile attempt at suicide. Mis-
sic lived vicariously many lives, but
never her own. Her great capacity
for loving and giving found no OPP
portunity, only Illustration.
AT Home Among the Atoms by
James Kendall is very readable ex-
position. 1t gives the re Ter fairly
clear idea of what modern chemistry
is trying to do. The author has dis
armingly informal approach 70 his
subject. He manages this introduc-
ton to chemistry with maximum OF
ease for the reader, striving to make
him feel as much as possible at home
among the atoms and the men who
live with them.

Thought
BY WIN. E. GILROY, d. D.
editor of The Congregationalist)

Henry Drummond called Love
the greatest thing in the world" It
is likewise the hottest thing in the
world, and we should understand the
meaning of holiness If we inter-
preted it altogether in terms of love.
Nor is it only the love of God that
is holy. All love is the love of God,
and all love is holy. Mans capacity
for love is the evidence that in God
he lives and moves and Has his be-
ing. So it was that John said that
''love is Of Cod" and that "he that
loveth is born Of God and knoweth
God"
The best life, the "holiest" life. is
the life in which there is the most
love. Can we really dare to believe
that? So few men act upon it in
practice. Yet when we analyze hu-
man experience and the results of
mems actions and ambitions can
there be any doubt that love is the
supreme thing and that it's satisfac-
tons 60 Tar beyond all other achieve
ments. -
Money, power, pleasure-what are
any OF them in comparison with the
satisfactions of those who. have dis
covered what it means to love and
to be loved-and especially Of those
who have found the meaning of the
greatest sentence in the language,
God Is Love?n "A,
