G. SOGERS THE SILVER ANSWER, by Rhoda Hoff.

Ejpdd. Mead and Oompany, NewrVork, 211 pages is the story of a lovely American divorcee and a young French priest -ho fell in love, handled with a finesse and restraint to which no one could take offense. IJ is the story of Margaret Boulanger and of Paul Magnier, both youne. with a common interest. Jin paleontology, drawn to one another with a fatefuiness that onlv one of them could accept.

IJ was less than a year after Margaret married Andre Boulanger! in Paris, when she realized her; mistake. Andre should never have married anyone. By nature he resented and defied the shafckles of marriage. And Margaret was not the tvpe to compromise where her marriage relations were concerned. A graduatee of the Sorbonne, and continuing her research under the' same Professor Renoir in a Paris laboratory.

Margaret fouhd a natural answer to so many of her questions in her associate, young Father Paul Mag- niet- Recognizing an emotional pull at. direct variance to his oath of; celebacy and the life's work that: lay ahead, Paul tried first to' H') i I vr mmul To Move One To Tears, Laughter; Introduction To A Delightful Family E. M. ALMEDINGEN is the author of one of those rare books: a volume on Russia without propaganda. Her "Dasha" is set in the Soviet Union, but it's a novel about people.

White people rather than Red. Of course, if you like them, if you find them human, if you find them moved by the deeper and nobler emotions common to mankind, as 'I did, it's all in Russia's favor. But the accent is fiction, not message. The author was born in Russia in 1898, her mother English and her father Russian and a professor of chemistry. She went to England in 1923, became a British subject in 1931 and now lives in Shropshire.

The new novel is her ninth volume since 1937. avoid her. Failing there, he faced i his own problem and sought to i rationalize it on paper. The pa- per fell into the wrong hands and i he faced banishment to a remote I post in India. It was then that Paul faced his I first major test.

Professor Re- I noir, his friend and Margaret's, franklv uraed him to abandon the 'church. Margaret writes him of Rrnoir's advice hut adds sagely: "You must decide all this for vcurself. I know that." And so Paul goes to India. The jawbone of the missing I 'ink between man and ape has been the goal of every paleontologist for years. A find in India brings an expedition from the United States.

Margaret Boulanger is the prime mover behind the expedition, as war descends again on Europe. And vou can go on from there. Here is an exquisitely told story of a love without a past, hardly a present, and without a future; laid in a setting that swings be-1 ween France, the United States, and India: moving to a conclu sion along a satisfyingly meta-j physical plane. The chosen title is the -kev to the- story. It is Elizabeth Barrett Browning's 'Guess now who holds I said.

home in the family jalopy then came the day when William, sent to the city to look for his brother, returned with a very beautiful girl instead. Though Mrs. Otter could tell at a glance if any of her brood was missing, to please them she always went through the formality of a roll call before going to bed "William. Calvin. Mary.

Walter, Alix, Rosie, Rolf, Jennie, Mickey, Davy, Dennis, Molly, Tessie, Nannie, Coo-Coo." Somehow they always found places for all of them to sleep in the tumble-down shack, and annually Mrs. Otter Has another baby to add to the brood. It is young Geoff who will capture the reader with his precocious philosophy and inventive genius. When floods threatened to ruin the country-side young Geoff improvised a tennis net to catch what came down the creek. He fished out everything from a drop-leaf table to a wash-basket.

But then, one cannot help but fall in love with the whole family. There is excitement, hilarious comedy, warm romance, pathos, tragedy, all blended into a display of humane qualities which alternately will move readers to tears and laughter. Here is delightful entertainment. R. G.

Perhaps his most telling point is that it is the half-breeds, who are neither white nor neither white nor yellow, who are in the van of the cult of equality. The individual reader will put his own evaluation on the book, according to his own thought processes- and the blood that flows in his veins. W.

J. Jr. THE BALLAD AND THE SOURCE by Rosamond Lehmann, Reynal Sc Hitchcock, New York, 1945 312 pages Out of our books of memory gleams vividly that fascinating rlrst novel of Rosamond Leh-mann's. DUSTY ANSWER was a memorable experience in beautiful creative writing, it was a Book-of-the-Month Club choice, and was followed by INVITATION TO THE WALTZ which also received that same recognition in America. Came THE WEATHER IN THE STREETS, a Literary Guild selection; and now, after eight years silence comes THE BALLAD AND THE SOURCE to be immediately selected by the Book-of-the-Month Club.

It is not difficult to find the answer to Miss Lehmann's success for her writing is imbued with an esthetic preciosity, a tranquil and ethereal quality, a thing of rare beauty and great sensitivity which makes for true originality. Here then is an expert whose meticulous prose gives the reader a lyrical impression, a prose of incredible beauty, the labnc ol a strange mood woven in the perfect loom of language and emerging brilliant and jewel-like to captivate her readers. It is the story of a beautiful but utterly ruthless woman, a woman who defied conventions, a woman of passion and fire, a woman whose evil destroyed a famijy. It is told through memoriesf childhood days by Rebecca Landon who, at ten, was a neighbor of the notorious Mrs. Jardine, the former Sybil Anstey.

Rebecca re calls, with a precocious vividness kept alive through the years, the strange fasatnation which led her to discover the secret bemnd tne unusual glances her parents cast when Mrs. Jardine's name was mentioned. Rebecca learns through youthful curiosity from -five different sources of the mystery that veiled ELISSA LANDI fects. It is naturally a heartbreaking task for the Mona. Everything is in such a mess except the drawers of the poet's desk which are in perfect order.

Mona's suspicion heightens as she finds prescriptions and. drug boxes made out to Miss G. Soames.

Thomas Y. Crowell Companv. New York 1945; 247 pages $2.50. Originally this delightful fam-! ily was introduced to readers by way of the pages in The New Yorker magazine. Now Ambrose Flack has been prevailed upon to do a whole book about the Otters, that happy-go-lucky carefree family installed in a ram-, shackle house on a hill in up- state New York.

Father Mnthpr Otter and their 16 voung-! sters face the tragedies and vicissitudes of life with a courage and humor that offers lively and laughable reading. With great sympathy and understanding the author pictures the Otters and all their heart-melting qualities through the eyes of neighbor Curley who is recuper- ating from battle-shock. Sometimes there is nothing in the house to eat but boiled potatoes, and very seldom do both ends meet in the struggle to keep within Father Otter's small salary. Mother Otter bustled around in her serene way to provide somehow for the brood. What a feast the beaming Mrs.

Otter prepared when Mr. Otter was lucky enough to run over a couple of chickens on his way ROSAMOND LEHMANN Mrs. Jardine a fascinating aura. From Mrs. Jardine herself comes some of the story; from Tilly, the little Cockney woman Who had been in service Rebecca's family a lifetime," comes another strange episode; from Aunt Mack; a relative of the Jardine's; from Maizie the grand daughter of Mrs; Jardine; from Gil the young aculptor; from all these Rebecca's, questioning brought pieces of the strange story.

So little by little the story of the beautiful egotist Sybil rounds out. She a middle-aged diplomat and Wrecks his career. She leaves' her husband and young daughter Ianthe for a passionate affair with an artist. She achieves notoriety as an actress and as an author but all former doors are barred and she becomes bitter in Jier desire for revenge. The gulf widens as she writes her version of her difficulties in a novel.

Her attempts to regain her daughter meet with failure though the man she sends to woo lanthe is successful. Then she marries again to a man slowly drowning himself in secret drinking because of her domination. An old woman, Mrs. Jardine is to see her grandchildren for the first time because of the death of the father and the tragedy of Ianthe. Malcolm and Maisie become cldse friends to voung Re becca and it is from Maisie, some four years after the story opens, that Rebecca obtains the final chapter that brings the haunting story to an end.

Permeated with psychological and emotional impulses, disturbing in its pathological, background, in some hands this story of family skeletons, scandals, tragedy, and congenital mental instability could have been a lurid tale. In Rosamond Lehmann's fascinating style it emerges graced, fascinating, poised, a bewitchingly beautiful prose melody. To savor its exquisite de-liciousness to the full is to read it in the manner in which it is written, slowly but surely delighting in every subtle and sen sitive phrase. GOULD. before the inevitable divorce Ginevra met the real desire vf her heart it led to secret meetings, secret letters signed with assumed names, a love that could not be honorably consum mated.

So THE PEAR TREE holds unusual suspense right along to the surprising -'and exciting climax which not only reveals Ginevra's hidden love affair but involves Mona in a personal affair of her own.

Each Summer he and, his family went there to live during the warm months.

The. man's two children, a boy and a girl, wanted a dog. For almost five years they had begged their father for one, buf the man was one of those rare individuals' who didn't like dogs and he refused to get one as a pet for his children. Last Summer this man went out in a small boat near his Summer home. It was a quiet Sunday morning.

He was alone in his boat and having trouble with its outboard motor. to start it he suffered a heart attack and tell overboard unconscious into the sea. Luckily he wasn't too far from shore and luckily a large dog was romping there on the sands. The, next thing the man knew he was being pulled up onto the beach by this unknown dog. Then the dog disappeared and to this day no one knows whose dog enacted this heroic deed.

Besides saving the mans lite this unknown dog made two children very happy. From a dog-hater his man has turned into a violent dog-lover. He and his two children have one of the most modern kennels now. All together this family owns seven dogs and certain societies in that section of the country have received substantial gifts to carry on their work for the betterment to dogs in generaL An Answer to Some of The "Whys?" Why do some dogs bite every postman or policeman they see? Why do others bite newsboys that come to their homes? Very often there is a good reason for a dog acting in this manner. Nine times out of ten it is caused by a complex set up in the dog's brain.

Dogs suffer from so-called "complexes" and certain faults can be traced along these lines. Discipling a young pup bv striking him with a newspaper may cause trouble in later -years with your newsboys. As a result of these switchings with newspapers every letter carrier and newsboy or anyone else with a paper in his hand may be re garded as dangerous by the dog. He bshaves as you or I might if approached by a person carrying a weapon. The reason some dogs attack the ashman is this: The dog thinks the man is going away with something that belongs to his master and he is defending it.

Yes, many of your dog's actions both good and bad, can be traced to what we call complexes. Proper Amount of Exercise Important Next to proper feeding, I class proper exercise as the most important factor in maintaining a dog. Every dog requires a certain amount of regular exercise. Exercising him excessively today and then neglecting his welfare for 10 days doesn't do your dog as much good as if you gave him a small amount of exercise each day. As a dog grows older, you can cut down on his exercise, but even a very old dog should not be deprived of a daily run.

If your dog is very fat, be careful when eexercising him. It is better to reduce gradually a fat dog's diet and gradually increase the amount of exercise, until the animal is back to normal. Don't attempt to reduce the animal's weight by suddenly giving him long and hard exercise periods. Reduce his food first and slowly increase his exercise. World's Biggest Dog I saw a picture in the paper the other day of a day that weighed 210 pounds.

The caption under it was in error when it stated that this dog pictured was heaviest dog ever known. It wasn't. The world's- biggest dog was a Saint Bernard named "Yocub." This animal tipped the scales at 247 pounds and measured almost eight feet from the tip of his nose to the tip of his tail. What a Leash Is For A leash is not an instrument of torture. Its sole purpose is to keep a dog gently within bounds.

When you jerk it sharply the dog's collar wrenches the animals throat agonizingly and sends a jar of pain through his whole body. That isn't good for him; nor is it at all' necessary. It is unpleasant enough for a dog to have to plod slowly at the end of a leash instead of romping and running at vill. wrthout adding to his discomfort by wrong handling. When he halts abruptly during a walk, turn to see why he has stopped Thrn when you' want him to 1 ehniu him T0 mtlST commodate pace to your, jerk.

A Nation At The Racial Crossroads; Indictment Of Champions Of Equality THE PEAR TREE by Elissa Landi, Ziff-Davis Publishing Company, Chicago-New York, 1945; 221 pages $2.50. As welcome as Spring is this sixth novel by Elissa Landi. who is one of America's foremost actresses of the stage and screen. It might be added tht Miss Landi has reached professional status long ago as a- writer. Her last novel WOMEN AND PETER met with great success and is still being widely read.

THE PEAR TREE is significant for the writer's fluent style and the intimacy with which the story unfolds. It is a heady narrative with bewitchment that will appeal to the cultivated taste. An undercurrent of suspense furthers the allure and heightens the story. The death of Genevra Sorel came as a great shock to her friends and admirers.

Almost apologetically, Mr. Landry begins an ambitious reassessment and comparative analysis of the world's races, attacking the "equalitarian," and gaming that general race blend-iag must "inevitably mean race suicide for the Caucasian.

The arguments are famikar to rfiany. In fact it is the' refutation Of these arguments that has so concerned the new school of thought which asserts that all races are equal." The book is written because ta new generation is with us. and the old truths must be refreshed and vitalized and placed Ijefore the voung men and wom-n of today" and because "the equalitanans are winning their fcase before the court of public opinion by default." Mr.

Landry's is not a bitter tjook except where he turns on the white mans renegades unprincipled opportunists, daydreaming idealists. parroting political parasites. On the contrary, as he sees it.
