California, where Miss McCornick will attend the thing just at present, what with eugenism and the like, and, moreover, what does it matter so long as we have a good story? None the less we do not believe that a Spanish who was a professional dancer in her day would have any effect on the character of an English dairy maid. Ruth Pennistan is the dairy maid in question. When Mallory goes down to the farm in the wealds of Kent to recuperate he naturally takes an interest in Ruth and her love affairs, but he seems to be quite unaware that he himself is Ruths chief love affair. Such unawareness is not usual among young men. Ruth has a tempestuous suitor, a sort of cousin, and when She finally despairs of Mallory she marries the cousin, who naturally beats her.

The old seems always to be so much better. But Marguerite Wilkinson in her introduction to contemporary poetry has given offense to no proper conservatism. Throughout the four hundred pages of her book we find no word of praise for eccentricity, no suggestion that we should forsake old and beautiful things, no insistence upon new epochs nor millennial arrivings. Her object is to make us acquainted with modern poetic values and to show us some of the reasons why they are values. And while we may not always agree with her conclusions we must recognize thai her standards are always just. They are never essentially nor radically wrong. The volume has two main divisions The Technique of Contemporary Poetry and The Spirit of ContemUnder the former porary Poetry. classification we have The Pattern Imof a Poem, Organic Rhythm, The Diction of ages and Symbols, Certain ConContemporary Poetry, Certain Radical servative Poets, Poets, and How Poems Are Made.

It is all intended to show the Spanish dancer strain asserting itself through , the primnesses of English farm life. Of course it may. actually be a case of heredity, but it is to be feared that the theory will have to work overtime if it is to account for all the eccentricities and the perversities of young women. We have known young women act in very much the same way qs Ruth and without a Spanish ancestor to account for. it.
