20–7653

A story that covers several generations in the life of an English


family. The figure of outstanding interest is Aletta Hulse, who is
strongly influenced by association in childhood with her aunt, Ann
Duller of Duller Place. Aletta inherits a fortune from an old Boer
uncle, marries and brings up a family of three children, who in their
turn marry. Interest in the latter part of the story centers in Andrew,
one of the grandsons, to whom his grandmother bequeaths Duller
Place. Andrew is killed in the war leaving an infant daughter to carry
on the family tradition.

“‘Shuttered doors’ presents one of those pictures of English life


before which Americans can only stand and wonder. Perfection of
detail in living has not yet been attained by us to such a degree that
an entire novel can be built about it with little attention paid to plot,
and not even much to characterization.”

HICKS, FREDERICK CHARLES. New world
order. *$3 Doubleday 341

20–14528

The book is the outcome of a course of lectures on International


organization and cooperation, delivered at the summer session of
1919, in the department of public law, Columbia university. “The
general purpose was to examine the League covenant analytically in
its relation to (1) international organization, (2) international law,
and (3) international cooperation, using the comparative method
whenever precedents could be found.” (Preface) The author’s
personal conviction is “that the League of nations should be
supported not merely because it provides means for putting war a
few steps farther in the background, but because it emphasizes the
necessity for cooperation between sovereign states.” (Preface) In
strict accordance with the general purpose the contents are in three
parts and the appendices contain, besides a complete draft of the
treaty of peace with Germany: The Triple alliance; Russo-French
alliance; The Holy alliance act; Central American treaties, December
20, 1907; Hague conventions and drafts, 1907; Treaty for the
advancement of peace between the United States of America and
Guatemala, September 20, 1913; Bibliography and index.

“For college classes studying the legal aspects of international
organization Mr Hicks’s book will doubtless be very useful. The
pedagogical apparatus and Mr Hick’s treatment of the problems he
discusses are unexceptionable. ‘The new world order’ is an
excessively pretentious title for a volume dealing with the League of
nations. Such a utopian nomenclature would have prejudiced the
case for international organization even if idealism has been
triumphant; under existing circumstances it is little short of absurd.”

HILL, CONSTANCE. Mary Russell Mitford and


her surroundings. il *$6 (*21s) (7c) Lane
20–12406

“The name of Mary Russell Mitford—the author of ‘Our village’—is


dear to thousands of readers, both English and American, for she has
enabled them to see nature with her eyes and to enter into the very
spirit of rural life.” (Chapter 1) She was born December 16, 1787, and
was a versatile writer not only of stories, but of poems and successful
dramas, performed in London with John Kemble and Macready in
the leading parts. Many quotations and extracts from her writings
acquaint the reader with her style. The book is illustrated with
drawings by Ellen G. Hill and has an index.

“Speaking truthfully, ‘Mary Russell Mitford and her surroundings’


is not a good book. It neither enlarges the mind nor purifies the
heart. There is nothing in it about prime ministers and not very
much about Miss Mitford. Yet, as one is setting out to speak the
truth, one must own that there are certain books which can be read
without the mind and without the heart, but still with considerable
enjoyment. To come to the point, the great merit of these scrapbooks,
for they can scarcely be called biographies, is that they license
mendacity.” V. W.

HILL, DAVID JAYNE. American world policies.


*3.50 (7c) Doran 341.1

20–11020

As the author points out in his preface, the idea of a league of


nations is so generally acceptable that many persons overlook the
fact that the covenant prepared at Paris is not a “general association
of nations,” but rather “a limited defensive alliance for the protection
of existing possessions, regardless of the manner in which they were
acquired.” The purpose of this book is to show that the proposed
league “not only repudiates the ideas underlying our traditional
foreign policy as a nation but presents a contradiction of the
fundamental principles upon which our government is based.” The
book is composed of eight chapters and as many documents. The
chapters, which are reprinted from the North American Review are:
Disillusionment regarding the League; The un-American character of
the League; The president’s hostility to the Senate; The struggle of
the Senate for its prerogatives; The eclipse of peace through the
League; The covenant or the constitution? The nations and the law;
The solemn referendum; and Epilogue. Among the documents are
President Wilson’s “points”; The covenant of the League of nations;
The Senate’s reservations of November 19, 1919, and of March 19,
1920. The book is indexed.

Booklist 17:53 N ’20

“Dr Hill’s argument is presented with all the skill of an experienced


political writer but the impression is conveyed that he is putting a
microscope upon the covenant of the League and is looking for
trouble in every line, without offering anything more constructive
than the old order in return.”

proposed will take from Dr Hill’s book much of its current value; yet

important place among the efforts of those who fought to assert the
belief that American independence and true internationalism are not
incompatible things.” E: S. Corwin

HILL, FREDERICK TREVOR. High school


farces. *$1 Stokes 812

20–19677

A foreword says: “The scarcity of short farces, suitable for junior


amateurs seems to justify the publication of this little volume.... The
three simple little farces included herein were written for a boys’ club
and a boy scout troop.... As they require very little study and a
minimum of ‘properties and effects,’ it is thought they may prove
useful to those in search of such material.” The first play, “Dinner’s
served,” represents a southern scene near a camp during the Spanish
American war and introduces two negro characters. The second, “A
heathen Chinee,” is set in California, with cowboys, miners and a
Chinese cook among the characters. The third, “A knotty problem,” is
a boy scout play.

“It is with deep regret that one lays down this book from the pen of
the gifted writer of those fine stories, ‘On the trail of Washington’
and ‘On the trail of Grant and Lee,’ for something better had been
anticipated.”

written by Dr Hill endeavors to give in a brief and concise manner
the elements of sanitation and public health, with which a nurse
must be acquainted in her work.” (Survey F 14 ’20) “It is devoted
chiefly to the problems of isolation and immunology and touches but

“Being papers on psychical research, telepathy, hypnotism,


Christian science, etc.” (Subtitle) They are a collection of articles,
each dealing with some aspect of psychical research, which have
appeared in various periodicals. As a psychical investigator his
treatment of every subject is sympathetic even where he suspends
judgment. This is the case in his attitude towards Christian science to
which he is not an adherent, but towards which he keeps “an open
mind” for, he says, “I do believe that the power of the mind over the
body is so great that almost anything is possible; and I think that the
medical advance of the next half-century will be chiefly in this
hitherto neglected direction.” Contents: Death; If a man die, shall he
live again? Psychical research—its method, evidence, and tendency;
The evolution of a psychical researcher; Do miracles happen? The
truth about telepathy; The truth about hypnotism; Christian Science;
Joan of Arc; Is the earth alive? Religious belief after the war.

The object of the book is not to be a biography of Lincoln, but to


reveal his deeply religious soul. “A candid examination of the
evidence will show that the religious element in Lincoln’s life was its
dominant factor; that his character as a politician and as a statesman
was determined by his character as a Christian; and that he drew
from the story of the ‘Man of sorrows’ the conclusion that God rules
the world in a personal way.” (Preface) The book contains a tribute
by Lloyd George, a foreword by Leonard Wood and an introduction
by Warren G. Harding. There are appendices, a bibliography and an
index.

“If the book had been written solely to prove that Lincoln was an
orthodox Christian it would not have been worth the writing or the
