BOOK REVIEWS 



"Heart of Hemlock," Clay Perry, (Bobbs- 



Merrill), 1920, pp. 288. 



Stewart Edward White wrote stories of 

 the Michigan lumber woods of which "The 

 Blazed Trail" was particularly memorable. 

 Clay Perry is less ambitious and contents 

 himself with a readable novel centering 

 about the activities of a pulp and paper 

 mill in Wisconsin. With respect to the 

 pulp and paper industry, the novel is not 

 particularly informative. In fact, it is to 

 be doubted whether the author has more 

 than a casual acquaintance with a paper 

 mill and with the woods operations inci- 

 dental thereto. But he has absorbed in 

 some measure the spirit of the industry and 

 reflects its growing worry about future 

 supplies of wood. Thus : "On every sheet 

 of paper that leaves the mill there is su- 

 perimposed on the invisible watermark of 

 the flowing stream and the falling tree, the 

 magic word 'enlightenment.' I had rather 

 be making paper than making laws." 



And again, this bit of conversation be- 

 tween Holt, the hero, and his employer, 

 President Thorpe of the paper company : 

 "Diminishing raw material. That means 

 but one thing to me reforestation. Why, 

 you've been slaughtering the goose that 

 lays your golden egg!" 



"I know It 1" cried Thorpe. "But that 

 involves the man problem, again. It will 

 take time and " 



"Yes, time and money and men and pati- 

 ence,"' cut in Holt quickly, leaning forward 

 in his chair. "You've got the money, Mr. 

 Thorpe. You've got to take time, have 

 patience, find the men. I know where I 

 can get men a dozen foresters just out 

 of khaki, looking for the main chance. I 

 don't mean timber cruisers, tree killers ; I 

 mean real foresters." 



The story itself concerns the doings of 

 one Gary Holt who returns from the Army 

 to his home in the mill town where his 

 father rose from the ranks of river drivers. 

 He is in love with Helen Edwards, just 

 graduated from college, but already chief 

 chemist of the paper company (!). Dis- 

 contented with his routine job in the mill, 

 Holt goes up the river on the drive where 

 he encounters and overcomes the enmity of 

 John Rod, the boss of the drive. There also 

 he "finds himself," and by a test of per- 

 sonal courage, downs John Rod and gets 

 his job, and, of course, Helen Edwards. 



The book is readable albeit almost too 

 obviously dramatic in places. The dia- 

 logue is lively and the interest sustained.
