If (Mr. Smith had not stuck his cane thru a black silk air hole in the side of a coffin with the undebatable statement "Dead men don‘t need to breathe," a million dollar check would thave gone to one of the best known of internaâ€" tional crooks for the excellent work of The story starts with the fact that several of the employees of Mr. Grayâ€" son‘s large department store seem to have become mentally unbalanced, his secretary, at the sight of a fiveâ€"pointâ€" ed star with a red spot in the middle going literally insane. Coupled with this is the fact that Mrs. Grayson has lately been paying out large sums of money for which there is no ordiâ€" nary explanation. 4 This is what Mr. Smith has to start on. His first real clue is the dropping on his front steps of one of these. stars, but with poisoned prongs on the back, so that the person who picks it up will die instantaneously. ‘ . It takes no secret service work to announce that "The Black Magician" is a good mystery story. '!‘lié creator of "Secret Service â€"Smith" knows pretty well how to construct them. .. THRILLS AND THRILLS The book is written on a sustained note of tragedy, as poignant as in a symphony can be the reiterated pote of a violin. There is something epic in the relentless onward sweeping of the life, although the time covered by the story is only a few months. The feeling for Nature has the deep and primitive quality which marks the best of the Norwegians from whose race Martha Ostenso is sprung. "High above the soughing of the wind under the great eavyes of the stoné house, she heard the trailing clangor of the wild geese. / â€" Their cry smote upon the heart like the loneliness of the universe . . a magâ€" nificent seeking through solitudeâ€"an endless quest." â€"For Judith the trumpeting of the wild geese, the sound that seems "to hollow out the heavens," gives the challenge for freedom. And through her freedom is found. It is Amelia‘s and Caleb‘s children who are the sacrifice. _ Martin, the oldest, who has never known any boyâ€" hood, an old man with stooped shoulâ€" ders and a broken spirit at twenty; Judith & girl as beautiful and unbrokâ€" en as a young colt, in whom the only spark of rebellion glows; Ellen who is growing blind from lack ‘of the right glasses and who in a sniveling sort of way, enjoys her martyrdom; Carlie, the youngest, an imp whom Caleb plays off against the others. _ _ Caleb Gare, a son of this country, bhas absorbed its cruel and relentless power without any of the beauties which Nature even at its most terâ€" rifying has. Years ago, his wife Amelia, had loved a man who died by being gored by a bull. _ Several months later Amelia gave birth to his son. _ Caleb Gare, who had loved Amelia and longed to win her, is térâ€" ribly embittered and decides to vent his passion for her in power, Marryâ€" ing her, he becomes a perfect demon of cruelty, refining his torment to the most subtle means. Amelia endures everything rather than have her son, Mark Jordan, who has been adopted by a mission, know the shadow across his parentage. 6 ~Up in the stern relentless country of the Northwest thére is little that ‘softens or beautifies human nature. The struggle for existence is so cruel that men become numb to all other things than the unrelenting demands ‘of the soil. â€" Sowing, tending, praying that no terrible wind or frost will deâ€" stroy the crop, reaping the meagre fruits in the fall, keeping alive during the winter by the sternest economy to ‘start the hopeless cycle again in the spring. . . "Wild Geese!" is a story of power. The power of Nature over men, the power of one‘s acts over one‘s self, the power of one human being over others. +o | tory?
