LITERARY NOTES.

Mary Washington's recently discov-
cred will has overthrown nearly all the
accepted theories about her life and
herself. In writing her book about
"rhe Mother of Washington and Her
Times" Mrs. Roger A. Pryor rapidly
reviews the few facts already known,
and then devotes herself to telling for
the first time the true story of Mary
Washington's life and the origin of
the famous name. Most of her volume
is devoted to picturing the social life
and customs and manners and occupa-
tions Of interior Virginia throughout
the eighteenth century. Former vol
umes have given splendid pictures of
Underwater Virginia, but the interior,
in which Mary Washington lived, is
untitled ground. Thus both the histor-
ical informa ton and the pictures of
life in the book are wholly new, and
1t is said to be written In a singular
ly charming and delightful style.

Two new English books published by

MIR. William c. Schaeffer, Jr., who

of age. Though young in years he has
achieved for himself a reputation for
scholarship attained by few candidates
for the ministry.
In many respects his student life
has paralelled that of his father, who
has been in the Lutheran ministry for
thirty years. In fact to be q Luth-
eran minister runs in the family. The
grandfather of the present pastor of
the Lutheran Church of the Assem-

of his church in this country, his work
being confined to Maryland and South

the teachings of the church to such
effect that it's strength in that section

All through the years when father

has been the wish of the parent that
