BOOK REVIEWS

"Heredity In Ilelntlon to Unpen
lea," by Chnrles llenedlcl Davenport.
Published by Henry Holt & Co. (ll
brnry). Davenport does not believe with
Klbert Hubbard Hint "a bad man Is
a good man gone wronR." but holds
with (laKon thnt "wo nro vehicles 'n
which nil our ancestors ride," nnd
Hint If our ancestors wero bad then
wo aro bad If they wore good, then
wo nm Reed. Ho saya: "1 nm what
tho doteruilners lu my two fusod
germplnsms have developed Into un
der tho culture which they hnvo ex
perienced durliiR tliolr development.
I am not responsible for my early
culture nor for tlio reactions deter
mined by It, but that culture Is part
ly determined by my mnko-un.
Thoso jieoplo who bcllovo thnt tho
body Is tlio expression of tho soul,
and Hint each soul Is responsible for
Its own happiness or unhapplness
responsible oven for tho peculnrltlos
of Its body, must (nko oxcopdons to
tho nbove BtaJoinont. To Davenport
wo nro not only tho vehicle In which
all our nnceators ride, hut this vo
hlclo even Iiiib n prodostlned course
tnnpped out for It.
"Tho buccosb of n marriage," ho
goes on to sny, "from tho standpoint
of ougonlca Is moabiirod by tho mini
hor of disease resistant, cultlvublo
offspring that como from It. llappl-
nesa or unlinpplnesa of tho parents
una llttlo oiigcnlo slKniricanco.
l'Jugonlcs has to do with trails that
aro In tho blood, tho protoplasm."
Ho goes on to call prenatal Influonco
n Buperatttlon. Tlila all sounds vorv
sclontiric, but If ono would daro to
crltlclzo lu any llttlo way n man
who la as high an authority on tho
brooding of nnlniuls as Davenport,
tho sontlmontallat might say that
whllo mnn Is nn organism an ani
mal, that thoro Is a dlvlno spark a
bouI within him that makes him dlr-
foront from tho lowor animals, and
tllftt h8 ' iche fop BomethlnK
higher nml experiences joy boypudl
thoso of eating, drinking nnd sleep
ing, and these joy nnd aspirations,
ao tho aentlmentnllat likes to believe,
enter Into tho makeup of tho un
born child; the deep lovo existing
between tho father nn mother, tho
prenatal Influence capeclnlly thnt
of mnternnl lovo and tho environ
ment of culturo and refinement
must In ninny case counteract some
of thn harmful heredity tendcnclca.
It Im only been In recent year Hint
people have turned their attention
seriously to tho Improvement of tho
humnn race. Davenport forcibly
point out tho necessity or eugenics.
Ho anya thnt probably two nnd one
half million children nro born In
tho United Htntos each year. Ono
bnlf of n million dlo before thoy
attain the age of ono yenr and half
of nil nro dead before their twenty-
t lilrd year. All this happen be
cause they nro born unable physic.
ally to rcalat dlacnsc. Iovo Is tho nt-
trnctlon of acx for tho propaRntlon
of tho race, nnd there nro few peo
ple who fall In lovo altruistic enough
to hold In mind the future genera
tion. Whether aclonro will over bo
nblo to guide tho Infatuated lover
awny from tho object of bin affoa
tlons If alio cannot produce a chart
allowing nnccatora frco from taint
of blood la nn absorbing question.
Hut If n dcoper and moro universal
study wero tnndo of eugenics oven
tho sentimentalist would bo moro
careful In tho placing of his affee
lions.
Wo who arc hero now nre what wc
aro, ao our work la with tho now
generation. If the children of today
aro taught that their supremo func
tion la parenthood, If they aro In
stilled with tho Idea that tho chil
dren who will como to them some
dny will bo moro to thorn than their
own llfe: thnt they will rcjolco In
their children's physical and men
tal perfection, or bo most unhappy
In their defects, then our boya grow
ing to manhood will naturally lead
cleaner live and tho girls growing
to womanhood will demand moro cf
tho men they marry than they have
hcretoforo done.
The scientific cugcnlst ha very
cold-blooded Ideas to offer for the
better development of tho race, and
tho spiritual dreamer has many
beautiful theories for tho uplift of
tho human soul. A acnslblo combi
nation of tho two extremes might
strlko a successful medium.
"Heredity in Ilelntlon to Eugen
ics" Is full of new Ideas, useful In
formation and interesting theories.
Ono of tho most striking arguments
In the book Is on the breeding of
our national family, the control of
Immigration. Cir present laws ro
ognlzo tho right and duty of regu
lating Immigration. Tho naturo of
Davenport's Idea of control varies
from tho present law and of course
Is tacd on eugenic principles.
"Heredity In Relation to Kugcn
les" Is not hard or dry reading ps
might bo supposed from tho title It
was written for general readers and
not for students alono. Each
thought Is mado clear and every as
sertion is further emphasized with
charts.
"Tho Heart or tho Hills." John
Fox, Jr. Published by Scrlbnor's.
(Llbrnry).
This is a book from tho Kentucky
land full or feuds, night riders and
many lawless deeds thnt aro natlvo
to that stato.
Fox tells a story lu a manner that
compels Interest. Ills descriptions
aro beautiful nnd his plot full of
action. Ho understands his uncouth
mountaineers and his cultured fam
ily of the bluegrass equally well. His
plea Is for them both. This plea
Is admirably expressed by his char-
actor, Colonol Pendleton, a flno gen
tleman of tho old school, who on
his deathbed Is talking to his son,
Gray, and Jason Hawn, a boh of a
lawless mountain family. Ho Bays:
"Tho war started us downhill, but
wo might have dono better. I know
I might. Tho earth was too rich;
It mado life too easy. Tho horao.
tho bottlo of whisky and tho plug of
tobacco wore all too easily tho best
nnd tho pistol always too ready.
Wo've been cartooned thro' tho
world with a fenrsomo, half-contemptuous
slap on tuo back. Out
living has been mado out of luxur
ies; agriculturally, socially, politic
ally wo hnvo gono wrong, and but
for tho Amorlcan sonso of humor tho
state would be lu a just, nation-wide
contempt. Tho Ku-Klux, tho burn
ing of toll gates, tho Goebel troubles
nnd tho night riders nro all links lu
tho same chain of lawlessness, and
but for tho first tho others might
not huvo been, Uut wo aro, In
splto of this, a. law-abiding pooplo,
and tho manhood of tho stuto is still
hore. Don't forgot that tho old
manhood is hore."
