mocracy, energy, resourcefulness
and constructive effort
THE MSTERT AT T.HE BLUB VIIXA.
By Mtlvllle Davlaaon Post. D. Applaton
i & Co.
' The Mystery at the Blue Villa re
pcatssome of Mr. Post's best work.
Each story has that powerful char
acter drawing, that dramatic in
stcnsityi of. situation for which the
author Is notable, yet each story is
as individual, as' unique in plot as
though it were the sole vuit of
Mr. Post's genius. Some of the
tales have an atmosphere of mystic
ism others are a-sparkle with the
spirit of romance while still others
are straight mystery stories. ,
LEGEND. By Clemence Dana. The Mac-
Mlllan Company.
- Miss Dane in this book con
tributes a note of striking original
ity to recent fiction and it is done
with all the artistry that-was to be
found in her pervious work, "First
the Blade," and "Regiment of Wom
en." "Legend" tells in strangely
fascinating manner the story of a
young genius the real story ot her
life and career and in contrast to
this shows in process of formation
the totally false legend that is grow
ing up about her. This theie as
handled hy Miss Dane becomes in
tensely dramatic. It is full 'of
humor too arid gives her plenty of
opportunity for character drawing
lu which art she excels.

savin' our souls or makin' the world
safe for profiteers or the league of
notions but a lot about the heluva
good time me an' O. D. had just the
same as you an' your buddy." A
straight-forward story with flashes
of irresistible humor.
THE MATRIX. By Maria Thompson
Dawless. Tho Century Co.
This is a thrilling romance of the
meetinar. courtship and marriaKe of
Abraham Lincoln's father and that
almost fabulous figure, Nancy
Hanks. ,It is set in the Kentucky
of pioneer days and gives the feeling
and color of that strenuous period.
As a story, apart from the historical
importance of the characters, "The
Matrix" is orre of the author's most
entertaining creations. It is. told
with the verve and vigor, the wit
and humor, the high dramatic power
of her best previous fiction.
THE DISAPPEARANCE OV KIMBALL
WEBB. By Rowland Wright. Dodd.
Mead & Co.
: The ' disappearance of a bride

earned by a detective and the smell
of bananas was the winning clue to
the seemingly impenetrable mystery.

and fascinating story. .
