Many years ago The Journal published
an article entitled IA Shelf Of Maine
Books that, to the surprise of the writ
er. was received with unusual favor.
A combined writing desk and chest Of
drawers had one shelf for DO oks and it
had been filled with the works of Maine
authors. Some of the authors were per-
sonally known to the writer, some of the
books we're of local interest, and when
looking them over one day the idea of
the article was evolved. The books
were taken up in turn and something
told of the authors. or of their contents,
in eossiping way, and the article was
quite generally copied and compliment
ed. The publishers of Mrs. Laura E.
Richards books wrote to ask why her
many charming stories were not mem
toned, and were told that they were not
represented on that shelf or any other of
the writer's modest library. Soon after
a complete set of Mrs. Richards books
was received with the compliments OF
the publishers. There were then other
Maine books not on this shelf, and now
there are many shelves filled with the
works of Maine authors-Holman Day
alone occupies good part of one shelf
and specially priced is an autographed
COPY of James G. Blaine's "Twenty
Years in Congress. Recent accessions
have been two volumes of poems, pre-
viously noticed, and the latest addition
is s"The Game of Life and Death, by
Lincoln Colcord, which is specially well
coined for various reasons. The author
is native of Searsport and comes OF a
race of seafarers, who as commanders
of Maine-built ships in the days when
the words commerce was carried on by
sailing craft, visited every port on the
globe, and as skillful, able and daring
navigators were second to none who
sailed the seven seas. Mr.. Colcord him
self. has had seafarlng experience. has
visited many foreign ports and writes
from intimate knowledge of things
nautical and otherwise His stories have
sea tang that specially appeals to
one who though born web-footed was
destined to do his seafaring as pas
senger, and generally by steam instead
of sail. The stories which make up this
volume-the first, an intensely dra-
matte narrative, giving the book its
title-were originally published in the
leading magazines, but will be re-read
with undiminished interest.

the defeat of the Wilson adminlstra

may dissipate.
