Of course, q series OF adulteries
necessary in this quest Of herself,
about which the reader is spared
no detail.
Mr.. Frank presents several Mary
Donalds. The reader is startled to
find her doing things for which there
has been no preparation by the au-
thor. Likewise her sister, Martha.
Mr.. Frank asks the reader to believe
that Martha, who always knew
what she wanted and is brimming
with life, would have killed her
self because her racketeer hus-
band was slain. If Martha had
been the kind Of woman he pic
tured she would have sincerely
mourned for a time and then
bought herself some new clothes
and married again. How thin the
life force runs when the conse-
quences Of a powerful one cannot
be imagined!
The book is filled with passages
something like this: An overwrought
woman enters the Office of a man,
stands there, and says II had to
come He gets up hastily. II
know They both leave and walk
down the street casually a sordid
one on hot day., without speak
ing. Somehow the reader isn't al
ways sure what to expect and Won
ders how the addressed person
knew.
It's old stuff and none too con-
vincing.-V. K. c.

The Bridegroom Cometh
By Waldo Frank. Nep York:
Donh1ednu DOrnn r. Co

Apparently you Just have to be
a Waldo Frank fan. Not being,
THE Bridegroom Cometh" pro-
duces little but irritation, mastery
as are many of Mr.. Franks pas
sages. The author possesses that
unfortunate quality of being brave
and grim about the social order
while trying to kid you into think
ing that he is being logical.
Underneath, the dominating emo
ton is hate. You want to tell him
not to try so hard-just to go ahead
and hiss out loud.
This book Is the story of two
sisters, products of Protestant New
England. From a fanatically relig-
ious home they go forth into the
world, their lives unfolding to in
clude all classes of modern Amer
ican life so that Mr.. Frank can
make it plain what he thinks about
each of those classes.
Never for a moment does Mr..
Frank leave that straight and very
narrow path which is variously
named religion, love and commu-
nism. The sordid elements of each
are the clay from which he molds
his story.
Mary Donald, one of the sisters.
gets involved with all three. She
goes to college, makes a good mar
riage in New York, but somehow
or other her soul keeps giving her
trouble. She seeks it in a series of
underpaid jobs and cheap rooming
houses after deserting her incred-
IDLY tolerant husband. There are.

book is that Miss Ueland is able to
proclaim convincingly that she did
not like the placid security of mar
ried life, but preferred the edge
of uncertainty which, is always in
herent in the business OF earning
living by ones work. Other wom-
en-, writing their stories, have said
as much before, but somehow with
out making it stick. In the case of
Miss Ueland, however, the claim is
so much in character that one does
not dream of doubling it. She does
not show herself to be a profound
nature; one does not see her as
taking her independent course
through any principle; if she is
feminist, for example, it is only be-
cause her personal tastes have CO.
incided to some degree with feminis-
tic doctrine. Rather than that, she
would seem to the reviewer to be
woman of genuine individuality who
found, in the development of that
individuality and the pursuit of her
illusions, adequate self-expresssion.
She was spasmodic, she was incon-
sistent, she was pleasure-loving and
rather absurd in her determined
devotion to the arts. But she fol-
lowed her star, such as it was, and
remained herself. And that, the re-
viewer would say, seems to be the
only healthy form of feminism too,
form based on respect for indi-
vidual quality and not. on the regi-
mentation of women into stern-prin-
cipled crusaders.
Well, the book is lively reading.
1t may annoy some readers but it
ought not to. It is harmless thing.
Its harmlessness indeed is positively
fragrant.
