D., author of “Freedom and Author- ity in Rellgion,” ete. New York: The Macmillan Company. “CONVINCED modernist,” also “incurably religious,’ this author declares himself to.be. This little book stands as & pligrimage into the broad significance of modernism for the sake of discover- ing the spiritual life that it both in- vites and sustains. Himself a church- man, the author upon this quest of dis- covery takes the road of the church, stopping at its various waymarks of polity and doctrine " to estimate the standing relationships between religion and life at any period. In the present, looking around and back, it appears to this pilgrim that religion, all along, has not been allowed to shed i promptly and freely, for its successi growths into ever finer uses.

BIG PETER. By Archibald Marshall, &ulhor of “The Hall and the range” ete. New York: Dodd, Mead & Co. L Mr. Marshall I8 best known by his smooth and level stories of English country life. It is through him. chbiefly, that ane come to know the essence=and flavor of that life. This romance, however, Is of another styipe. This follows the orthodox plan for romantic adventure. The hero belongs to the rough life of Australia, The thing that takes him to the ordered ways of England is an inheritance. The inheritance, however, Involves a legal contest, some viliainy and an attractive voung woman. Upon this good and substan- tial foundation the author works out a couple of hours of first-class en- tertainment for even the exacting reader of romance. It does more than this, since it puts him in close touch with_an upstanding man whom it is worth one's while to know. OF SONG. MY LIFE By Mme. Tet- razzini. Co. Mme. Tetrazzini’s account of her own life tallies with every other record of notable achievement. It is a story of hard work, of seif-denial in one direction in order to harvest in another. This fact places the auto- biography with those that are cal- culated to inspire by way of example. Going back to a babyhood of unmis- takable genuis, the author, from that point. moves forward to her present supreme place as a great coloratura artist. Along this course other artists gather—singers, composers, inter- preters. The story sums, therefore, to an Intimate outlook upon music itself and upon the various theories that underlie this form of artistic expression. One meets here the famous folks of song—with the friendships and enmities that appear to make up both the warp and woof of the artistic temperament. It is a very intimate story, one of deeply implications and self-ab- sorptions. _ Interesting as every record of human triumph must be interesting. e THE_ COUNTRY LIFE BOOK OF BUIDING AND DECORATING. Ed- ited by Reginald T. Townsend, edi- tor of Country Life. New York: Doubleday, Page & Co. Here is a bbok for the home bullder, one that is a compound of practical instruction and ready suggestion. To produce it Mr. Townsend. the editor of Country Life, called in architects and decorators of experience and dis- tinction. From these he secured a competent all-around _treatment of the subject of making homes that are calculated to respond to the needs of the unstandardized and individual person who demands housing that ‘| comports with his own personality. No_aspect of house building is neg- lected here. The type of house that fits. thfs-or that site is gone into with intelligenee and practice. Then, the house itself, from garret to cellar, is made a thing of growth and beauty and convenience and comfort.

This volume be- gins with the opening of the war and closes with the cnd of the first phase of the Gallipoli campaign, in 1915, From the creation of the island army, from its training and ewbarkation to the war zone itself, on through the fnnumerable detalls of 'this first phase the story is here set down in the full content of of- ficial record and authenticity.

CLEVER CROOK STEALS BERLIN COURT’S CLOCK WHILE JUDGE LOOKS ON By the Associnted Press. BERLIN, May 28.—Thousands of law-breakers have been given “time” at Berlin's central criminal court in Moabit, but recently an ingenfous crook, posing as a re- pairman, actually was given the court’s official clock, and during the conduct of a trial. The sitting was well under way when a man in working Tlothes entered the courtroom with & lon ladder, which he calmly plac under ' the huge, imposing time- plece on the wall. The judge, counsel, accused and spectators were agtonished at such an unprec edented interruption. The president stopped the workman's ascent of his ladder long enough to inquire the meaning of his conduct. The visitor explained that he merely wanted to get the clock for repalr, and that it would take only & mo- ment. The president objected, but consented when the man said he already had called six times and always found the court in session. The vacant space on the wall surprised the janitor later in the day, and hie Investigations re- vealed that the court had been robbed under its very eyes, in fact, with its permission.” the Civitan and Cosmopolitan clubs, and thexe organizations, too, will witness the sport In speclally reserv- «d_sections.
