Irascible old residents who think
sidewalks were made for pedestrians
should have their ideas anticepticized.
Sidewalks, in the suburbs, if you
please, are for the flying bicycle, the
trundling velocipede and the infantile
terror with small red wheelbarrow
and a sheet iron spade. In the down
town districts sidewalks are mainly
for the politician who saves the gov

Meandering through Holland Mr. and Mrs

result that they have admirably spontaneous

the publishers have accomplished some of the
best work thus far offered in the series to which
Mr.. Jungman's volume belongs.
Mrs. Jungman is quite as sympathetic as her
husband. and writes OF the Dutch with all possi-
BILE respect. but she never fails to pause upon an
episode in which there is any trace OF fun. In
her chapter iceland she has this amusing
note on characteristic native:

curably vulgar voice." he brings In the epitaph
alleged 20 have been engraved the tomb OF an
Irishman: Patrick ORaRerty-His neighbor

good sense In his remarks on Richard Strauss.
He admits that the latter has prOdIgious tech
nique and that ''in an age dominated by the
mOmentous achievements OF Wagner and the
barbaric splendors of TschaikOwsky ne has yet
contrived 20 inspire the jaded concertgoer with
new thrill" But he has illusions as to the
true character of this composer. saying that
"the method adopted by Strauss might not un-

senting arid wastes diversified by an occasional
green oasis of melody. which is rendered all the
more attractive by the prevailing desolation Of
its surroundings" The rhymed Envoy" TO
Strauss terminating this essay. from which we
quoted several stanzas not long ago is one OF
the best skits which have been written on the

There is an interesting essay here on "The

Mr.. Graves has worked out this problem in de-

TO explain them TO the world Just what those
celebrities will make of his effort remains TO be
seen. His reminder TO them that they cannot
jump off their own shadows may, or may not,
give them pleasure. We have always supposed
that ihe wish of the woman writing n novel
was to strike, not feminine note but one
entirely inexpensive of sex. Her disposition
frequently noted, to publish her works over a
masculine pseudOnyme has not implied so much
that she has wanted TO seem to be writing like
a man, as that she has wished TO give the i'm
preston of writing from an entirely impersonaI
point Of view. To show how far she has sue
rccdcd would involve comparisons which would
be inyiGiOus. This much, however. may fairly
be asserted. To say that some Of the most
brilliant flashes in contemporary fiction owe
their existence to the fact that the authors of
them are women is not to admit that these
women, taking their work by and large, ncces-
sarily strike feminine note in literature Mr..
