There is a heaped up, extra, thrown in for good, measure qualîty about this book by 'Denis Mackail. .He seems neyer. to tell even haif of which he- might about his people and bis, bouses. In a day Wben so many novels are stripped down to their* very modern gears, it seems, tremendousty good. luckfor read- ers wbo actually çnjoy readinig a book, rather than just finishing it,, to corne a c ross so browsable a volume. And there is more, to it than just.the author's knowiing a great, deal about bis poeple that he does not tell; anyone-who meets themf is bound to go, on, too, beyond the covers of the book and speculate on idathf e'brought themf, or took- f rom theni after page 378. The scene "Thée 'Square. Circle" is a smaIll one: Tiverton square ini Lon- don, a diminutive, sooty, green >park surrounded> by r espectable bouses;' but before one bas done with the. book, that scene has 'become a much-peopled world revolv,ýing slowly before a plea- santly unprej udic ed eye, A lack 'of prejudice, however, does not mean a lack of affection. Mr. Mackail likes, bis characters, just as Trollope .iiked bis, and although the contemporary au- thor -does not express bis sympathy f or the' misfortunes of bis creations in the. f orthright 'manner of' the chronicler of Barsetshire, it is quite apparent thbat it is a matter of style and not feeling that prevents. That is the sort of people they -are, the inhabitants of Tiverton square, tiot problems, flot protagonists, just people, young and old, muddling along according to their dirn hghts, andl inescapably likeable. As. the Square bounds the place of the story, so one year, f rom summer vacation to summer vacation, bounds the time. During the middle 'of. Sep- tember the bouses around the Square begin to wake up.after the lethargy' of their summer emptiness. Shutters' corne down, blinds go up, there are 'great cleanings wîthin and arrivais without. The book is realiy an omnibus book of lives caught f rom the angle of a certain year. 1 regularlv the preciosss treasure. at do wve love z't ho ut meastire. know. 'We suspect the second mon.

COLLECTORS EXHIBIT BOOKS, The exhibition of books and auto- graplis owned' by undergraduates of Yale which closed on May' 23 was in-. teresting chiefly of an indication ofthe kind of material collected by the young.t er. generation. There were a f ew of, the ,more obvions books-signed, liited edi- tions of modern writers and selection s f rom some of the more popular au- thors of the last enritury-but on the wvhole, the exhibition showed intelli- gence and a certain desire to get. away f rom the expected. There were a series, af French and German manuscript pages on vellurn, illustrating different types' of writing f rom the tenth to the fif- teenth centuries; a large and rather re- mar kable group of Fielding' pamp~hlets and niovels; severàIl volumes of Horace *Walpole; William Godwin's copy of Maitbus's "Essay on the Principle of Population"; a superb Collection of books with colored'plates, by Rowland- son which included, the apparently unique "Old English Squire" by John Careless, London, 1821, and, the, "Etch- îngs of- Landscapes f rom Scenes in Cornwall," London, 1817, and auto- gràph letters and documents signed by everyone f rom Michelangelo, Napoleon, and Louis XIV, to Julia Ward Howe and, Théodore Dreiser.

Bernard Shaw is writing a new play of which the first draft is two-thirds a sermon, with a few of the usual m usié finisbed: It, is té be. a comedy entitled, ball tricks throwa in to in4e people "Too Trruc to'Beý Good."

Sirnplicity and sympathetic' understanding of. charac- ter and .circuffstance make appealing and lifelike the f un and fancies of a little girl on a Georgia plantation not long after the 'Civil war. Naturalness and humor bridge happily the.distance in time and space.

"*Ail About, Patsy," Mary ' Phipps' jolly extravaganza for younger readers, wears its bandanna with a difference. Here the local: color is pure theater. 'Liza Jane, "ýthe dearest littie pickanin- ny who 'lived in the quarter behind the fig bouse," and Hattie Pie, the fat black cook, "crooning the sweetest tune," are stock comic figures of .a' stereotyped. quaint land of cotton. But a rollicking rigmnaroje which scampers along with such gaiety and gusto wiil delight the soul of any child, without benefit of geography.
