Special Correspondence.
r ONDON, March Guy Thorne,
who wrote when 1t Was Dark
keeps on getting free ADVERTISE
ment in way that must be the
envy of his fellow novelists. 1t is said
that over 10000 copies of when 1t
Was Dark" were sold in this country
alone as the result Of the striking refer
ence 10 that novel which was made by
the bishop of London In a sermon de-
liyered at Westminster Abbey, and now
an even greater bit Of good fortune
has befallen the lucky Guy Thorne,
For practically at the very moment
that new novel from his pen IL being
announced as ready" 1t has been de-
cided by the Union Society OF oxford
that all of Thorne's works that exist In
the library Of the famous university
shall be elected theretrom and publicly
burned"
No reason for thus reviying an old
time method OF showing "abhorrence"
has yet been assigned by the oxford
Union" The explanation, however,
probably lies In the fact that Thorne
freely both in his last book, "A Lost
Cause" and his forthcoming one--which
has already been published In serial
form-and that oxford is one Of the
great strongholds OF Establishment"
as IL il called,
The thing has made n small sensa-
ton, however, for most people sup
posed that The practise Of book-burning
had been done away with forever
even at oxford, There II once flourish
ed exceedingly, especially In revolution
and reformation times, and from ls49
to the present day no work has been
incincrated at the university. The last
book to be burned there. and the last
TO be burned In England. was Froude's
famous Nemesis Of Faith According
TO an official statement published on
March Q. 1919, that work was publicly
burned by the authorities IN the College
Han" and So one supposes that Guy
Thorne's detested volumes will be treat
ell IN the same fashion.

NOTES.

For discriminating lovers Of poetry
Il will be welcome news to hear that
Florence Wilkinson is to have new
book out this season. Miss Wilkinson,
though one Of the younger poets. has
made secure place for herself in
American letters. The lighter side OF
her art was shown IN a little volume OF
verse, Kings and Queens" supposed
TO have been written by group of chill
dren and edited by their mother. In
the play Of its fancy, It's subtle humor
Us true sympathy with childhood, this
little volume compared more than IA
vorably with Stevenson's "Chid's Gar
den Of Verses" Miss Wilkhsons next
essay was IN the form of dramatic
verse, volume called Two Plays Of
Israel which received the approval Of
both Of poets, and actors. Miss Will
kinson's new volume bears the title
The Far Country" and contains a Sc
lection from the poems which, as they
have appeared in the various maya
zines, have been for some time steadily
adding TO Miss Wilkinson's reputation
for high order of poetry.
In times past when anything reached
me pinnacle Of popularity II had a ci-
gar named after 1t, Now things have
changed and post card picture is the
eliminating evidence of success. Judg.

bicycle factory In Dayton, was being
congratulated on his aeronautical
achievements.
Well" he said modestly, "our sue
cess, such as IL has been, was due to
hard work. We were not content to
let well enough alone. We tried for
perfection In every detail. We did not
rest on our cares like the lady barber
that Dayton used TO have.
You remember the lady barber OF
Dayton? A machinist OF mine. out
OF curiosity, allowed her TO shave him

must have been terrible
"All through the operation hears

him.

English Novelist Works to be
Burned In Public at Oxford.
Our London Literary Letter,

Apropos, II may be recalled that this
authors real name is not Guy Thorne'
AT all but Ranger Gull. under which
appellation most of his books have APP
peared. Like Cutclife Hyne who gave
us Captain Kettle" and who OCCASION
ally writes as "Neatherby Chesney,"
Mr.. Gull apparently doesn't think 1t
policy To publish too often under one
name. and most Of his controversial"
books have had Guy Thorne' on their
title page, with the odd result that the
author ~ much better known under
his assumed name than he is under his
real one The son Of "A clergyman, he
began his writing career as a news
paper man and made his first success
with a novel called, THE Hypocrite."
That was as Ranger Gull. As Guy
Thorne" he first attracted attention
with a weird story called, THE Cave"
but When Ii Was Dark" has been his
biggest success and probably would
have made hit, even without the bish-
Oh of London's recommendation, for Its
story OF the resurrection "dlsproved"
was both Ingenious and original. But
II undoubtedly was the free "ad' from
Or. Wilmington Ingram, who practical
Iv stands next to the Archbishop Of
Canterbury, that gave tho book It's big
boom. and II Thorne's other books real
