Unlike most of those, who by down rules Mrs. Semi-rich has lived up to them exceedingly well in her last book "The Old Countess?“ Young America has allowed the At-' lantic Monthly prize of $10,000 for the best novel submitted to be won by a Canadian Mano de la Roche of Toronto, is the winner with her book, “John.” in a little autobiographical sketch about Miss Roche her publish- ers go so far as to give out the fol- lowing, "Miss de la Roche confesses that she never sits at a desk. when writing, but that she does all her work on a drawing board on her knees." Really when we have come to the pass where this can be stated: publicly what can we hope for from the future generation? There are books written on various levels of the mind, from the lightest champagne level down through the various levels of sophistication to one which is primitive in its directness, its simplicity, its closeness to som'e- thing which we call "the _soil." It is on this last level that "Speak to the Earth" was written, and it is in its adherence and fidelity to that level that its greatest power lies. Out in the Western' Badlands. Vic- tor Trench "a down-andout ex-ser- vice man" as he terms himself. is making one more stand for existence. There were many more like him in the beginning but one by one they have drifted away-driven out, dis- couraged or even killed by the un- equal. heart breaking struggle. There comes a time when Victor Trench, too. has reached the end of endurance and he is going to make an end of his life. But gt that moment he tirtds at ts) dint: Elie .Galpin of Newark.

PIONEERS “SPEAK TO THE EARTH" JUST PAMGIAPII By Sarah Comstock Doubleday Page & Co. an} “may: . . painful-Mn! "Mirrors of the Year" is original in its conception did in its treatment. It is a new idea no catch while they are yet fresh the essence of the happenings of the year and embody them in a, permanent form. It is, as the editor of Volume, Grant Oun- ton says in this introduction, " union of timeliness with perspective." This is a high attempt and the reader looks with slight scepticism on the ptrssibil- ity of its fulfillment. ', Mark Sullivan writes competently . of the “political year." and Elmer Da- 'vis contributes an essay as amusing :as his very amusing books lead us to expect on "The State of the NU- tion." Taking as his text, quotations ;from the Declaration of the Day of Thanksgiving by our President. he I goes about proving that we have {found the ultimate state of blessed- fneas and prosperity by an invention lof the economic fourth dimeetsioet-- itimes In other words when we had I?', sotriciettt market for our produce [to make far real proiperitr, someone iconceived the brilliant plan of selling lit of on the installment plan to the :Amgrica of the future. Who would f not admit that this is a nmdamentai- 1 1y sound as Mark Twain's community lwhich made a living by taking in ‘each other's washing? -But as one goes along one be,uur-,; conriliced that through I wise choice of contributors and a eontrriousnecy' on the part of the contributors of the part they were meant to play, a you! deal of that very union has been a- chieved. The men and women who hgve written the various articles on subjects of wide and interesting range are peoples with long experience with their subjects, experience which haf given them IS is the way of experi- ence. perspective on things even while they are present. Herbert Asbury, members of the editorial staff of the New York Heb aid-Tribune. opens the volume with an irunical and penetrating artic'. on "The Triumphs of Journalism," among which of course are the high lights of the death of Valentino and the ease of "Peaches" Browning. Ho does point out some hopeful trends, however, and gives at least a ttlim- mering of hope for better things in the future. unions oe 1113 YEAR" A National Kevin. " Oink-din; Ficus.
