OF course as the Spaniards have come to ad-

times little slow OF comprehension; he IS

WINGED that Spain has fallen behind in the
race of civilization and he is eager to see her

in the following manner:

which students of Elizabethan literature nave

has scientific predictions which have LED MIN

Mr. Walter Jcrrold, in the preface to new
anthology of poems by writer's who are still
living. protests against the common assumption
that poetry is dead The truth Of the matter
is H.. says. that the reverse is the case, for
# may be doubted whether at any time there
have been many writer's possessed of the rare
power Of expressing themselves in poetry" We
have heard talk OF this kind before. 1t is often
made very plausible but for some readers at
least. il is never really convincing. When Mr..
Jerrpii alludcS to the many writers possessed
Of tll" rare power Of expressing themselves II
poetry" he is proceeding on the assumption that
poetry i 4 matter of tcchniqu" alone Nobody
denies that this technique is rractiScd with eX-
traorInary aptitude at the present time. The
art II vcrsifcation is cultivated by hundreds if
not thousands Of individuals, and the proper
tion Is large of those who obtain fair mastery
over it. But what has all this got to do with
poetry? The writers of minor verse and their
friends can never understand why the world is
not h0Spitable to the pretty books which are
So important to them. They talk earnestly about
the kinds of poetry, and want to know why
the minor poem has not Il right 10 exist. Bless
their Souis-thcre IS no reason why it should
not be permitted to exist. All that lovers Of
poetry ask IS that it should not pretend to he
