his wife and a trusted friend.
Mrs. Barrie admitted misconduct
with Gilbert Canaan. Canaan is young,
a struggling writer, and was friend
of Barrie's of two years standing
Barrie invited him to visit at the Bar
RE cottage in the country. He and
Barrie were much together, Mrs. Bar
RE and Canaan even more so. The
creed of Barrie toward women as ex-
pressed in his work has been one of
respect and tenderness. The creed
of Cannan perhaps may be judged
from his utterance in Peter Homun-
culus," the novel which, it is alleged,
tells his eide of the affair.

to have incorporated the whole story
in his novel Peter Homunculus"
And the thousands of readers and
playgoers throughout the world who
have learned to know the gentle, mod
est Barrie through his books and plays
throw up their hands and say:
"How could it ever happen?"
For Barrie, from the day when "a
Window in Thrums'' first brought him
to the notice of the reading world, to
the time when Peter PAN made his
name a synonym for the whimsical in
art all over the world, has stood fore
most as the interpreter of the tender
moods of women, especially woman
under the sway of noble, uplifting
love. Love, of the gentler, saner sort,
has made Barrie.
Whether it is the mother love of
poor, worn, old Jess, waiting the com
ing of her fallen son, Jamie, in "a
Window in Thrums,'' or the passion of
Grizel, who tells Sentimental Tommy
81 don't want you to be great; l want
you to be good" Barrie has drawn the
heart of woman truer than anything
else. His reputation has been built
upon sentiment, and so def and con
vincing have been his women in senti
ment that thousands of the gentle1
sex have cried: How can a man
know us so well?'
