The Bard Of Ayr

ROBERT BURNS: How - Know Him. b. william
Allan Nelson Professor Of English. Harvard
University with Portrait. limo. pp. 33e. Bobbs-
Mcrrlil Company.
This latest volume which has come
to hand abundantly maintains the sat.
isfactory standard of the series. Of
which it is a part. Professor Nelson
has deep and sympathetic knowledge
of the great Scottish poet, together
with the essential gift of imparting at
least a measure of that knowledge TO
others, and of inspiring them with sym.
pathy with his subject. Our chief
criticism Of him would be that at times
he takes unnecessary pains in his deii-
nitions of Burns's dialectic and other
words and phrases. Thus we should
doubt the need of explaining that ian.
'twere ma" means "if it were not"
Certainly it is superfuous to dehne
"warolcks" as wizards" and "mirk'
as OZARK" for those words do not be-
long to Scottish dialect at all, but ara
quite ordinary English words of. we
believe. Anglo Saxon origin.
That, however, is minor fault OF an
excellent and timely work-timely be-
cause in the present world crisis the
evangel Of Burns will be profitable for
dissemination throughout humanity.
The book contains so many OF Burnss
poems that it might almost serve as an
annotated edition of his selected writ
ings; and that is not its least valuable
feature,

to us in his poems, in lines which can
never be forgotten and which we had
thought had reached the very climax
of inspired expression. But as dis
closure of the man himself this simple
prose surpasses them. For these let
tiers and diary entries were written not
in the hot blood and spiritual exalta-
ton of the poet, illumined with imagi-
nation; but rather in the calm and
matter-of-fact fashion of an annalist
of commonplace facts in the plainest Of
speech. 1t would indeed, be difficult to
imagine a more direct and simple mar
ration of facts than this. Yet because
of the transcendent significance of the
facts themselves, in bulk if not always
in detail, and because Of the spirit Of
the man who beheld them, the tale OF
even the most commonplace daily du-
ties is TRANSPORTED into epic majesty.

Within Warning Nations
A Hero Meeting His Fate

The impression which we get is that
Of nation of extraordinary efficiency
and power, singularly destitute OF
morals or decency, and almost incredi-
bly, victimized by its own decisions. II
rs doubtless the fact that Germans
widely believe that Londoners general
ly dwell underground for safety from
Zeppelin bombardments, and keep Ger
man prisoners on the roofs of their
houses as protection from such at
tack, Yet why should even such no
tons seem fantastic among a people
capable Of the hymn of Hate" who
have all but supplanted "Guten NOR
gen" with "Gott strafe England?
The picture which the author draw.
thus depicts its subject at once as
pitiable and formidable. The chief i'm
preston which nc desires TO give is
that il is going 10 be a big job to beat
Germany, and that il is TO be done
chiefly by the British Army. smash
ing against the Western front. France
has so spent herself in her superhuman
achievements, holding the fort" while
England was getting ready, that she
cannot be expected to do much more;
and Russia will at most deal with Aus
tris and Turkey. IL rests with Great
Britain TO win the war, and what that
will mean is suggested by the estimate
that the smashing of the German lines
on the Somme has been mere child's
play contrasted with what it will be
TO smash the fortifications which the
Teutons have constructed on the Mouse.

A "Havelock Saint

ONE YOUNG MAN Edited BY J. L Holder
Williams. limo. ID. lje. George II. DOran
Company.
They sneered at "Havelock's saints"
at first, two generations ago, because
they said their prayers and did not
swear. But presently they realized
that wherever there was particularly
hard fighting to be done those saints"
were very fends incarnate. The breed
survives. In token, here is a plain tale
from the trenches of Y. NJ. c. A..
young man who enlisted, went to the
Western battle front, fought like a
fiend for two years without ever losing
his saintship, and when shell scrap
tore out one eye and opened his brain
to daylight, he asked for postcard
and wrote to his employer-he had
been a clerk-"I am not sure to what
extent | am damaged They
hope to save my eye, and | have only
lost one finger on hand" That was in
July, at the Somme. And he planned
to be and doubtless was back at bust
ness in time for the Christmas rush"
Now, what are you going to do with
such men? You can't whip them. that's
sure. Perhaps the best thing to do is
to read about them and then go and
do likewise.

Britain Awakening

INSIDE THE BRITISH ISLES by Arthur Gles-
son. Svo. ID. i3+. The Century Company.
Something more than a century ago
Napoleon is reputed to have said, in
one of those bad shots" with which
history sbounds, that all Europe
would presently become either republi-
can or Cossack. To-day the problem
seems to be whether it shall become
republican or Prussian, with republi-
canism-Deo volente-about to win.
Such, at any rate, in the judgment of
this shrewd American observer, is the
solution of the problem upon which
Great Britain has decided-for herself.
We have heard much about the external
effects of the war upon the United
Kingdom, but comparatively little Of its
influence upon purely domestic politics
and social order. So some historians
have dwelt upon the material loss
which England suffered through our
Revolution. ignoring the imemssurable
benefits which then accrued to her

Here is something that is worth

the only current publication entitled

Belgian Atrocities

, THE GERMAN TERROR IN BELGIUM By
Arnold ]. TOynhee. With maps and ilusira-
lions sso pp 100. Geoge IT, Dorsn Company.
The Hunnishness of the Hun is the
theme of Professor Toynbee's book. He
escorts US from the violated frontier
across ravaged Belgium, pointing out
to US with memorable accuracy the acts
Of pillage. arson, murder, rape, and all
manner of utter bestiality in which the
Huns revealed and exulted. 1t is a
sickening story, at reading of which
the gorge rises at every page. Yet, 1T
is the truth, and it is truth that it is
necessary, for the sake Of humanity,
that the world should know.
Professor Toynbee has written the
appalling record with the calm re-
straint and the careful accuracy of the
scholar that he IL, reinforcing every
statement with reference TO chapter
and verse of his authority. His work
convinces US again that we must for
get the proverbial Bulgarian atroci-
ties" of generation ago. over WHICH,
at MacGahan and Schuyler's revela-
tons, Gladstone waxed so righteously
wrathful, and substitute Belgian afro
cities" as for all time the unsurpassed
bic climax of horror.
