5PeS.cct Day and 1t is Observed
in a Fitting Way in the
City of CIarksburg.

Easter dawned a perfect day and
was fittingly celebrated by the city as
a whole. In the churches special pro-
grams were rendered both of must
ella and literary character, all having
special bearing upon the comm emora
ton of the Resurrection. Special SER
mons were delivered in all churches.
Besides the regular religious cele.
bration the season is always one for
promenade through the main thor
|cughfares OF the city. This was q
feature Of the day, feminine hnery
maintaining its spic and span standard
presented from year to year on this
occasion.
The celebration was one that was
not confined to the native population.
Easter3was mofe.or less appropriately
commemorated by the foreign coll
onies, the home countries of some o.
which make the season an excuse for
more elaborate and extended obserT-
ance than does this country.
In some of the churches Easter can
tatas were rendered, as we'll as the
simpler anthems and appropriate
hymns The observance was a gem

.4rseelArED raEa1,

LNDON. April S. The rowing band
of Bulgars driven out or Serbia after
Its sudden raid has penetrated Greece
at three points, according to Salonika
dispatches. The English press sees in;
this episode the possibility OF develop
ments which may mean a fare-up IN
the Balkan situation. Advices reach
ing London by way Of Rome, however,
assert that Bulgaria has agreed to
give full satisfaction to Serbia. II
this is true probably the only sequel
to the episode will be to draw from
Bulgaria definite statement as to
the policy she proposes to pursue.
All the Balkan nations as well as
Italy are awaiting the outcome with
interest. Meanwhile Greece is mass
ing troops along the Bulgarian from
tier and Bulgarian reservists accord
ing to advices from Salonika have
received orders to Join the colors.
In the countries allied against Ger
many. Austria and Turkey these re-
cent developments are blamed upon
German intrigue. The Carpathians
front is the quarter in which a decis-
ion Of first Importance is expected
soon.
London seems to be confident that
the Russians will break through into
Hungary but this. had been predicted
many times before.

ATLANTIC MONTHLY.

The set midsummer fiction number
is not for the "Atlantic's" editors; still,
they open its August pages with war
story by Anne Douglas Sedgwick,
"Hepaticas." which may claim the dis
tinction of being the only war-baby
story up to date. The author Of
"Tante" and "The Encounter" may be
relied upon to get the utmost from
the situation--the widow sending her
only son to war, seeing him again but
for a moment on furlough, and finding
herself left with a cockney daughter
in law. a public dancer. and with a
grandson whose ofiicer-father lies in
the trenches of the dead behind the
trenches of those left TO fight. The
merit of the story lies in what it sug-
gests of wrecked hopes and plans in
the past. and of readiustments in the

This is a welcome little volume to
place by the side of the histories OF
Brook Farm on the shelf devoted to
transcendentalism Much has been
written and published concerning Al
colts New Eden, near Harvard, and its
inevitable failure, but it has remained
for Miss Sears to gather together these
many references to the "con-sociate
family" and to arrange them n a con-
secutive story which fits neatly, with
out breaks, into the records of the
movement of which it was a part. The
correspondence of Charles Lane, the
Englishman who financed the enter
prise; Alcott's letters, Mr. Sanborn' S
life of him. the future Father Hecker's
and Anna and Louise Alcotts diaries,
newspaper and magazine articles are
drawn upon, and Louise Alcott's ironic
"Transcendental Wild Oats" is printed
in full. She, indeed, summed up the
crux of the matter and the cause oil

colt! Poor Marmee,' as her daughters
called her." exclams Miss Sears. and
she continues:
In her loyalty she had almost
worked her fingers to the bone,
with no thanks for it. Her days
had passed without any help to
tighten her manual labor. At first
they said that not a lamp could
tighten Fruitlands, because the oil
contained animal fat, and only
bayberry candles could be used.
But Mrs. Alcott then rebelled. How
could she sew and mend the clothes
with such poor light? There
seemed some sense in this, so one
small lamp was brought to Fruit
lands just for her. The philoso-
pliers tried sitting in the dark, but
one by one would try to find some
pretext TO join her at the sewing
table.
Far more even than the history OF
Brook Farm that of Fruitlands Is
record of chldlike simplicity, utter
lack of common sense and impractical
enthusiasm. Alcott, seeking New
Eden, would not allow the soil to be
MANFRED, because he considered 1t
corrupting mode for forcing nature
He made a distinction between veg
etables which "aspired" or grew into

CRITICISM
AND BOOK NEWS
Lord Haldane on Life, Education and Nation
ality-Lee's Unpublished Dispatches
Bronson Alcott's New Eden.

Bar Association on what he termed the
Higher Nationality; theme much
more closely related 10 his attitude in
the present European crisis than any
of the others in this book. His in.
tlmacy with Germany. with Germans
with German thought, was and had Ions
been very marked. He had studied
at Goettingen, had translated Schopen-
hauer. and had gone on a mission OF
international amity to Berlin. In
view of what has happened since that
address was made at Montreal in the
late summer of the year before last il
is interesting to recall some of the
things which he said in it:
The world is probably long
way of from the abolition of arma-
ments and the peril of war. For
habits of mind which can be suff-
GENTLY strong with a single people
can hardly be as strong between
nations. There does not exist the
same extent of common interest, of
common purpose and of common
tradition. And yet the tendency,
even as between nations that stand
in no special relation to each other,
TO develop such habit of mind is
in our time becoming recognizable.
There is growing up a disposition
TO believe that il is good, not only
for all men but for all nations, to
consider their neighbors' point Of
view as we'll as their own. There is
apparent at least tendency to seek
for a higher standard of ideals in
international relations. The bar
barism which once looked to con-
quest and the waging of successful
war as the main object of states
manship seems as though it were
passing away. There have been es-
tahlished rules OF international law
which already govern the conduct
of war itself, and are generally OBJ
served as binding by all civilized
people, with the result that the
cruelties of war have been lessened.
Recent events in Europe
and the way in which the great
powers have worked together to
preserve the peace of Europe, as if
forming one community, point to
the ethical possibilities of the group
system as deserving of close study
by both statesmen and students.
No man probably ever spoke mors
sincerely or from deeper personal be
lief and conviction than did Lord Hal
dane in saying those things. There
was, moreover, good ground for saying
them; and they were good things to say
Yet exactly eleven months after they
we're uttered "the ethical possibilities
Of the group system" were materialized
in the War Of the Nations, and since
then have demonstrated to what extent
"the cruelties of war have been less
ened." The regret is not that Lord Hal
dane had that irenic vision less than
two years ago. but that his vision has
not heen fulfilled.
