THRILLS IN PLENTY
Six determined men, with the requisite knowledge and a share of luck, could block the Suez Canal for a full month, cut of! the armies in Eritrea and Italian Somaliland from supplies, and most of all from-petrol, and bring about something approaching the collapse of the campaign. How it could be done is told excitingly in "They Blocked the Suez Canal," by A. D. Divine (Methue'n).
"The House that Chak- -Built," by Keith West (Herbert Jenkins), is a story of intrigue, love, and laughter in modern China. The plot is fantastic in the extreme, but the story makes good reading of its kind.
Two other publications by Herbert Jenkins, "Criminals All" (by Wyndham Martyn) and "The Wingrave Case" (by .Peter Luck), provide plenty in the way of excitement and suspense, the former being an Anthony Trent story and the latter a mysterious murder mystery in which an unwanted wife is found dead in her batii.
Modern scientific knowledge is used to provide. the thrills in "Tile Mysterious Mr. Brent" (by G. Davison), a gentleman who leaves behind him a traiJ ..of horror and ruthless cicstrucI ion. This is also v Herbert Jenkins publication.
