Thiz training is expected to be of ccnsiderabie use to tho men when the Navy Department assigns another vessel here for training pur- Pures, Those men who attend the pre- scribed drills regularly and keep up their naval education will be the ones selected to form the crew which will o after the vessel when it is as- signed. Practice drills mapped out; by the officers at the reserves' armory at Water and O streets southwest, are being conducted with this idea in view according to the officers hav- ing charge of the work. | By the time the season opens up in the Potomac river, when practice ! cruises can be made on Sundays and | week ends, it is expected that the department will have assigned a i larger vessel here. It probably will ! be of the gunboat type. The local | reservists already have at thelr dis- posal a gold-chevroned subchaser, and ; more will be supplied as soon as the numbers warrant. naval reservists to participate in the' interesting training work, but those; who fail to respond and Keep up the work cut off by their transfer to the i inactive list of the Navy gradually will be weeded out, with a view to building un only a reserve of men actually interested fn the develop- ment of a strong and powerful re- serve, which can be put aboard the combatant ships of the Navy upon a few hours’ notice. It is the intention of the officers, it is understood, to follow out the idea of Secretary Daniels made in an address here this week of keep- ing in the reserve only those men who intend to perform duty in ac- cordance with their oaths of enroll- ment. Secretary Daniels, in his ad- dress, said that he would rather have a strong, effective reserve of 100.000 men than a reserve of 250,000 indo- lent men. Those reservists under the juris- diction of the commandant of the ‘Washington navy yard are being urged to report for drills. If they fail not only will their retainer pay be checked, but they graduvally widl be glven discharges, according to present plans. It was pointed out here by officers directing the work of the reservists that they are determined that the capital city shall have the best re- serve organization in the country, one that will serve as a model to other similar organifations scattered fn various seaports. The Navy De- partment is understood to be very the Friday Morning Music Club. With George .Wilson as accom- panist and Anton Kaspar giving two obligatos, the program included; ‘Nocturne, B .

It needs only the support of more of the enlisted per- sonnel residing within: this district. Conslderation is being given by the commissioned personnel of the local reservists to the matter of requesting that one of the Eagle type of boats be assigned here. One of these ves-| sels, the Eagle 23, has just arrived at the Washington navy yard for duty in running between that place and the marine station at Quantico. Several of the local reserve officers have examined the craft and are en- thusiastic over fits possibilities as a | training ship. They are well built, | along lines of the modern destroyer, and are oil burners. They are equip- | ped with two four-inch guns and a three-inch _anti-aircraft gun which ;provides sufficient armament for gun drills. They are considered ideal for river and bay training. i These vessels are being assigned to | various reserve organizations all over | the country, and are being kept in reserve at Kittery, Me., where the | local reservists would have to go for | it 1f one is assigned here. Many re- | |servists are looking forward to such a trip, which will take about one month, as considerable time will be iconsumed in fitting the vessel out after the crew arrives there, should: it be decided to ask for one.

The problems set here are vital ones, such as every intelligent American shopld have, at least, a speaking acquaintance with. And !such an acquaintance is made possi- ble, for the problems are laid out in straight lines and stated in clear terms. Mr. Kahn talks here about the unhappy situation of the rail- road, entangled on the one hand in public prejudice and strangled on the other by destructive legislation. Like a business man—fair but wholly un- sentimental—he presents the ism of public ownership of the roads, aud of paternalism in general. He talks about “high finance,” its meaning, its purpose, its method, and its logical results. He gives, besides, of the past two years of and unscientific taxation. some of the theme: Other: upon the war and our international relations.

The passage of such a meas ure would help considerably in out- lining training cruises of this nature, as it would relieve those who make the trip of an expense which should be borne by the government. Stoppage of pay of naval reservists who have not attended the requisite number of drills required by the naval reserve law has begun. Orders to the Navy paymasters are being made out in the local reserve headquarters un- der the direction of Lieut. C. E. Eason, U. 8. N. Every reservist in this dis- trict who has failed to attend drills and live up to his enrollment will be denied his retainer pay.

DRAKE, NELSON AND NAPOLEON By Sir Walter Runciman, auth of “The Tragedy of St. Helena, etc. Illustrated. New York: G. P. Putnam’s Sons. This interesting study reaches its, peak in the middle with the -author's consideration of Nelson. = In effect, Nelson is the standpoint from which Mr. Runciman looks backward to Drake as the source of England's fleet tradition, a tradition which Nel- son carried forward with surpassing gallantry and success. A straight line of advance would have concluded this study—not with Napoleon—but with Lord Fisher instead, who more than another brought the English fleet to its latest stage of efficiency and power. With. the great war in mind, however—its causes and avoid- ances—the author steps aside to dis- cuss the statesmanship and foresight of Napoleon, who divined the recent world-wide calamity through the con- solidation of a great military power in central Europe. England and France were the logical allies against such a culmination. Napoleon made many overtures toward England to circum- vent just the development that actu- ally took place. But ‘the rilers of England at that date, and earlfer, were more German than English. Be- sides, England and France were ene- mies of long standing, with suspicion ripe between them. So England threw in her fortunes with central Europe. with the war of 1914 as the fruit of that union. Apart from the line o! historic development that the :uthor lays down here in the study of these dominant characters, the sketches are rich in intimate views which he has gathered in his own exhaustive in- vestigations of European history. A rugged and informel handling of the material in hand delivers over to readers an absorbing portrayal of these outstanding personalities. LIMBO. By Aldous Huxley. New York: George H. Doran Company. Underneath the self-protective mon- otone of our external behaviors lies the limbo of actual individual life— that nether place wherein curious inheritances of the blood assert them. selves, wherein old paternities of the spirit clamor for outlet. Such is the “limbo” from which Aldous Huxley, ‘a new English whiter, draws the group of short stories of this volume. The first of these, the story of Rich-, ard Greenow, samples them all. The author brings Into the open here the drama set by the fact that within the personality of Richard Greenow .the male and female elements of which every being 18 @ compound, are o near- ly balanced in proportion and power as to force a. struggle for supremacy. The boy. the brilliant Oxford student, the distinguished man of. letters, is, in any moment of off-guard, crowded into obscurity to make way for a certain Pearl Bellaire who reels off volumes of popular stuff of which Richard Greenow is much ashamed, but which, nevertheless, he sells to a welcoming public at astonishing figures. The story suggests the Wil- liam Sharp-Fiona MacLeod puzzlé of a few years ago. A striking manner and a thorough workmanship carry these weird tales over into the slight- 1y frightened, but wholly captivated consciousness of the reader. THE STORY OF OPALj The Journal of an Understanding Heart. By Opal Whitsly lustrated. Bos- ton: The Atlantic Monthly Press. Has Daisy Ashford introduced an era of infant authorship? It looks so. For. close upon the heels-of Miss Ash- ford, there appears Opal Whitely. whose. literary career ‘commences at: the age of six. Here, however, the likeness between the two ends. 'he former is the romantic adventurer of urban outlook and taste. The latter is a lover of nature, beginning just out of the cradle. so to speak, to chronicle, day by day. the doings of the world—half real and half imag- inary—that she ‘herself sets up with- in the otherwise vprosaic life of the western lumber camp. The fellow- ship that many children set up be- tween themselves and the whole &ni- mate life around them js here.in an abandon of reality. An imagination | rich “in beautiful imagery is here. And with, both theré is a painstaking realism of detail, a conscientious ture that sums the entire record to a quaintly beautiful story of a girl who life about her to.the service of friend- ship and a genuinely ruman associa- tion. THE BLACK KNIGHT. ' By Mrs. Al- fred Sidgwick and Crosbie Garstin. New York: Henry Holt & Co. This story falls apart in the mid- dle, so to speak. The first section stands as_a corking man story— not a woman_in sight, save shadowy Jane Em'ly, who coun| at all’in this connection.. It story of another down-and-out young Englishman come to the mnorthw to seek a new fortune. Im -this qu there is not an idle moment, nor a dull one. Real wit and actual humor dance along here in the strenuous business of a Canadian wheat har- vesting. Here Michael . Thorley— which is not his name at all—gives a first-class accoynt of himself, standing up like a man, though Re does, finally, land in jail. . One does not quite condemn him for that, un- der the circumstances, and, besides, one likes the fellow. - The second part of the story sees Michaél back in Europe—Paris—and there women, of & sort, appear. One of these is a nice girl, with whom the authors decree that Michael shall fall ‘in love and'achieve matrimony. And, by one of the odd lapses of human na- ture to which all poor eritters are susceptible, Michael strikes the read- er as being less of a man than he was in the Canadian harvest patch, and the girl is not up.to that Can: dian Michael. She: measures to ti stature of the new and prosperous Michael—but the fellow -has ‘fallen off somewhere between the western open and the sophistications .of Paris. If these authors had decided to leaye Michael in jail this. would have beed a surpassingly ‘Sne ad- venture. . j HIS MAJESTY'S WELL ‘BELOVED.

Plots and counter- plots jostle one another, some in the service of love, others under the no less masterful leadership of hate. The swift-moving and pictus adventure is an ingenious invent! that {s calculated to reanimate l dead-and-gone day with the scenes and personalities and customs that made it a fascinating panorama of 1 kingly pleasures that quite ignored the fact of royal obligations.
