delight. WHITE FANG. Illustrated by Charles Livingston Bull.

The Reverend John Hodder is called to a fashionable church in a middle-western city. He knows little of modern problems and in his theology is as orthodox as the rich men who control his church could desire. But the facts of modern life are thrust upon him; an awakening follows and in the end he works out a solution. A FAR COUNTRY. Illustrated by Herman Pfeifer. This novel is concerned with big problems of the day. As _The Inside of the Cup_ gets down to the essentials in its discussion of religion, so _A Far Country_ deals in a story that is intense and dramatic, with other vital issues confronting the twentieth century.

A New Englander is the hero, a crude man who rose to political prominence by his own powers, and then surrendered all for the love of a woman. THE CELEBRITY. An episode.
