GETTING POETRY PRINTED

Alfred Noyes, the English poet who
is now visiting in this country, an
nounce efforts on his part to put the
writing of poetry On a business basis.
Will the instruction that he suggests
help the poets get their verses printed2
The poet is the houn' dawg of litera-
ture. 1t is commonly said that there
is no demand today for verses. The av-
erage newspaper editor chucks sonnets
and quatrains into the wastebasket
with a fendish chortle of glee. He ad-
vises the poet to urn to some relatively
high and enduring pastime, like send
ing personals to the local staff. The
spring poet gets about the same vel
come as the hand organ man.
Yet the poetry mill keeps on grind
ing. Where has there been a golden
wedding ungraced, unwept, unhonored.
and unsung by some eye-rolling genius
among the relatives2 Look through
the newspapers, and you will find
find columns of it. The majority of
women and many men turn to the
poets corner before they do to Con-
gress.
Probably the big reason why news
paper are so wearied by the steady
stream of verses that pours TO their
desk, Is the popular misconception of
what poetry is. To the average anna
teur, all you have to do is to pair of
heart" with ~''cart," and maid" with
lemonade" and you get poem.

be sung, not to be printed. The min

ing pairs of ill-mated rhymes, with
