Books on Pets in War
By Elizabeth NJ. Cole,
Technology Division. Public Library.

Animals have their part in the
war effort, whether it be in the
home as companions or on the
battlefields as active participants.
The books and magazines for which
readers at the Public Library, Eighth
and K streets NV. have been ask
ing recently are evidence of a grow
ing interest in this subject AL
though books on how to keep pets
healthy and happy are always in
demand, those concerned with the
animal as auxiliary fighter have
found themselves popular once
again.
The files of the war reading room
Of the Public Library supply timely
information on the place of animals
in the war today. During the First
World War $4,000 dogs saw service,
and in Russia alone, this last winter,
$4,000 were used-for life saving, for
attack (some served with the para
chute troops and for transporta-
ton.
Dog History.
"Renni the Rescuer," by Felix
Salten, is an appealing story of a
Red Cross dog. Here is described
the infinite patience and care in
training which fitted Renni to find
and bring assistance to the wounded
on the battlefield 1t. Col. Edwin
H. Richardson, in Forty Years
With Dogs" tells Of his work in
training Red Cross dogs and later
as head of the War Dog School in
England during the last war. In
this school, messenger and guard
dogs were trained, and a beginning
was made in training sentry dogs,
the type most needed in the active
warfare of today. A history of the
dog has been written by Cecil G.
Trew. This book, THE Story of
the Dog and His Uses to Mankind"
includes a chapter on dogs of war.
Pigeons also have their work in
wartime. The story, Chance: A
United States Army Homing Pigeon"
by Helen o. Watson, describes the
training of this pigeon. Chance is

Land of Promise
By J. laurence Barnard.
(Doubledau. Dornn)


In the quaint world OF the novel,
there have been triangles, quad
rangleS, pentagons and, for all this
reviewer knows, cubes for novelists
to become absorbed with. Land of
Promise" is of the second-men-
toned category: husband and wife,
wtfe's boy friend and husbands girl
friend. This novels only apparent
difference from most of its prede-
cessors is the date of its big city
setting-just before and Just after
Pearl Harbor.
1t concerns married couple that
IS very well on financially before the
husband somehow loses his Job.
They retire to q cheap hotel, the
wife becomes squeamish and runs
home to her rich mother and q SOL
der friend, while the husband seeks
solace In = sort of understanding

Plume Rouge
By John Upton Terrell.
/Xikif1n procc
Viking PreSS.)

This is story of the Oregon
Trail and the terrific hardships
undergone by the pioneers who
opened this route. More specifically,
it tells the story of Plume Rouge
otherwise known as Benton McKen-
zie, and the little band of men and
women he led by longboat, horse
and finally on foot from st. Louis
to Eastern Oregon, only to find at
journeys end that the British had
beaten them to it and pre-empted
the rich hunting rights of the coun-
try.
Each member of the mixed band
becomes well-delineated PERSONAL
ity in this book. The reader sympa-
thizes and suffers with each. even
with the fear-crazed woman who
was emotionally and physically un-
prepared for the rigors of such
trip. The Indian squaw, Mary, and
her two papooses; Alenn Johns,
looking for her lost husband; Jenny,
the peppery half f-breed-these are
the women who helped to establish
the traditions of our great North
west. The men they followed opened
the trails and cleared the way for
those who came after.
While this book is fiction, it is
fiction with an authentic ring. The
Indian incidents, the tales of buf-
talo and other wild beasts, the
camping details. are all of strong
interest to the lover of tales of our
early days. r. r. TAYNTON.

day, Dordn.J
"They Tell No Tales" and "A
Toast to Tomorrow" established
Manning Coles as an excellent writ
er in the field of the novel of espi-
onage. Readers familiar with these
earlier books are going to be very
disappointed in This Fortress"
There is no espionage to speak of,
just love story told with the back
ground of the small town of Wester-
ley, England, during 1910, when the
British were in such fear of invasion.
The novel covers the life of Tom
Langrish from the end of the last
World War to the beginning of the
present one. His love for the Ger
man Baroness Hildegarde, whom he
knows he can never marry, and his
romance with a girl much younger
than himself furnish the main
thread of the story. Naturally, the
author rings in spy or two, and
even a German parachutist is cap
tured, but it is all tame stuff. We
have learned to expect quick excite
ment from Mr.. Coles. J. w. R., Jr.

Ryder Cup Plans


Fate of the Ryder Cup golf
match, scheduled for July 1919 at
Oakland Hills, may rest on a con-
ference Walter Hagen will have
with Freddy Corcoran and the
leading pros during the National
PEA, starting Monday in Atlantic
City.
Because of the proposed gas
rationing, plan is being consi-
dered to advance by several weeks
the big event, proceeds of which
will go to the American Red Cross.
Should the pros be unable to
come earlier and the transporta-
ton problem become too serious,
the match may have to be cam
celled. j. Russell Gnau, leading
Detroit figure behind the match,
doesn't believe this will be neces-
sary, however, and is going ahead
with his plans while awaiting a
report from Hagen and Corcoran.
There has been some talk of
selecting a course nearer the city
as another way of meeting trans
portation difficulties. Played the
last two seasons, these matches
have netted more than $4,000 for
the Red Cross and the USO.
