OUR CURRENT LITERATURE

If it is to the so-called Classics" that We must go for eternal human nature and perfection of expression tried and sure, it is in the newest books, in the newspaper on it's way from the press to the kindling box, in the supposedly ephemeral magazine, that we must seek a record of ourselves as others see us. and find the self expression of our age.
