Announcement Of an Impor-
tant New Undertaking.

The American scandinavian Founda-
ton announces that il has undertaken
the endowment and publication Of a
series Of trsnslations from the litere-
lures of Denmark, Sweden, Norway and
Iceland, to be known collectively as
"The scandinavian Classics" The first
two volumes, 10 be issued this month,
will consist Of collection Of comedies
by Holberg, the great Danish dramatist,
and a collection of verse by Tegner,
the Swedish poet. The plays are trans
lated by Professor o. J. Campbell, jr.'
of the University of Wisconsin, and
Frederick Schenck, Of Harvard Univer-
sty. The Tegner poems are Longfel-
lows translation Of THE Children Of
the Lords Supper" With foreword by
the translator, not found in most Of
the Longfellow editions, and a standard
but almost inaccessible translation by
Blackley, with an introduction by p. r.
Lieder, of Harvard. If these volumes
meet with the reception anticipated 1t

year at least two authoritative trans
lations. Among the volumes in prepa-
ration are Lyrics by Bjornson." "Es-
says by Kierkegaard," Three Modern

deals with a subject remotely cognate

man whose motto is efficiency, who
knows or recognizes no other measure

has his blind spot" which is his utter
disregard of human feeling. He works
for an organization of the state that

machine IN which men and women

considered Of no more account if thew
fail to do their allotted parts There
Is in this a touch OF NietLscheism as
II has been transformed in Germany
into system that eliminates human
waste as much as possible. at the cost
of much of that individuality which is
SO much dearer to the Anglo-Saxon
than 10 the well-d sciplined, naturally
collective Germans. This is undoubt-

book Mr. Forman has yet written, the
more so as his case" is not allowed to

The Historic Continuity of the
Worlds Capital.

LONDON. nv Sir Laurence CONNIE. =. 5.
A. Svo, pp. xiv, ISL. Philadelphia: }. Is.
LippincOtt Company.
This is Sir Laurence Gomme's third
book on London. II is also the most
important one he has yet written, since
it is the first attempt ever made TO
prove the conscious and effective his
torical continuity of the city, underly-
ing the main issues of its life in all its
changes, since it became the city-state
of Roman Londinium. The author car
ries the continuity even further back,
to the Celtic stronghold whose name
survives in the Celtic "Lud," with its
Anglo-Saxon suffiX, gate" But with the
Augusta of the Romans the real contin
uity of this independent self-contained
power within the state begins. In war it
is traceable from the days when the
city-state under arms attacked Hengist
and fought the Danes, 20 those when
London sent its own contingent 10 South
Africa. Modern Londoners never
asked why the City of London should
send its own contingent. They acqui-
eseed with a silent pride in the act.
They uncons ciouSly felt il was in keep
ing with the ancient customs OF the
city. The city itself probably did no
more than this. and the silent obedience

auences so well, not even Rome herself:
London is the only example of city
state in modern history exercising her

powers in connection with the personal

Laurence in support of his thesis. but
at the present moment it has special

MRS. BARCLAYS LATEST.

THE WALL OF PARTITION. BY Florence
l.. barclay Emo, PIP. Al. q. 7. put
mans sons.
To reduce the great emotions Of life
to p pleasantly conventional temper
allure. so that the reader may enjoy
herself in comfort, this seems to be
one of the ingredients Of Mrs. Bar
clay's recipe. She knows her public
because she is undoubtedly one with
it in tastes and outlook, a public which
refuses to be startled or shocked,
whose books must be a mildly stimu-
lating diversion from a monotonous,
well-ordered round of existence, and
nothing more. SO here is another story
neatly giving this large public what 1t
wants. To be sure, the wall OF partl-
ton is even thinner than the author
makes il for her own purposes; one
can sec through It from the hrst, and
wonders # it will stand till the end OF
the plot; but TO distract our attention
from this weakness of the structure
there is a sort of counterplot that IS
lust as thin in another way-One can
not take it seriously. Withal, one must
admit that Mrs. Barclay knows her
trade as well as her public; there is
even a certain bravura IN this latest
performance of hers what will seem
to more sophisticated readers an al
most hazardous reliance upon the sim
plicity of her audience. The title Of
the story has not only a sentimental
but a literal meaning. The partition
wall between two London fats is all
that remains, after ten years Of separa-
ton. between a man and a woman who
had loved and parted over-hastlly be-
cause she, being young, knew nothing
of life and the tolerance which that
knowledge gives.

Mrs. Van Worst gives US in this new
novel of hers something far superior
to anything she has done heretofore

work, sound IN its character drawing
as in the development of its plot. II
perhaps a little too long drawn out IN
the suspense of it's climax, and weak
ened. also. in the end by concession

happy ending. Big Tremaine would
have been a bigger figure with tha'
blot upon his earliest manhood unre-
moved; and the love Of the girl-a
exceptionally interesting figure, CON
vincingly hawn would then have
reached the heights OF which 1t had
proved itself capable. But this IS per-
haps captious criticism.
One derives so much pleasure from
the reading of the story, one be-
comes so genuinely interested. that one
must accept the ending which the
author has chosen and thank her Tor
so good. so human performance. ble
Tremaine leaves his native town IN
Virginia under a cloud, a young man
of twenty. Fifteen years later he re
turns from South Africa a rich man
and a strong one. intending only to ar
range his widowed mothers affairs
He stays, always under the cloud, held
by love which that cloud bids him
