The White Feather. By P. G. Wodehouse. (A. and C.

Black. 3s. 6d.)—The hero of this vigorous and lively school story shows the " white feather" early in the narrative, but redeems his character triumphantly. This climax is reached at the end of the story, and Mr. Wodehouso manages the plot cleverly so that the reader is the only person in the secret. It is a very readable tale, and the characters are good, though their talk is almost too smart and pointed at times. However, they are undoubted boys, and the way in which Sheen of the " white feather" comes out at the end will appeal to all readers, and no true boy will deny his claims to interest.
