Daniel marries. soundly and cau- tiously, as he does everything, a Wo- man who will be a good mother to his children. Thane never marries. He does not crave the responsibilities of a home, he is the king of "Good Fellahs" and'his home ir, the nearest club or bar. By using the phrase "put across" it is made plain that this is a book of a controversial nature, it is written with a purpose, a theme to expound not merely as a work of art. In the latter sense which was evidently sec- ondary, it does not measure as high as "Soundings" which drew a deli- cate emotional situation excellently for: the sake of drawing it, regardless of the point it wanted to prove. in _"Labettt" it is hard to detach the characters from their labels, the father a. selfish platitudinous profit- eer, who took his profit in praise and knighthood, the mother u stupid be- hind the lines echoer of good English propaganda, the sister I maiden whose tlrat. bloom was {Mitten "out-there," one brother who fought and came out with s csptsiney and the D.

They are well drawn char- acters, those two. each powerful in his way, mach appealing, and totally different. Early in the book We begin to be Concerned with Daniel's children. There are {our of them, and how fondly. brightly. in spite of his pas- sion for his store. Daniel'dreams of their future. Thvitore is for them, the millions invested in real estate are for them. all the vast fabric of his life is woven for them. And one by one of course they tear it apart. Ruthlessly. stupidly. craft- ily, each one according to the vice which is inherent in his nature. And the kings W King of Industry and King of "Good Fellahs", who have mm success and our affection, an down to defeat. It is a powerful, even a gripping story. it catches your emotions and twists 'them about with the fate of its characters as too few stories are able to do. It is a first ntp'el, writ- ten without flourishes, interestingly, in a Concise swift moving manner which seems often to be conversa- tinnal.
