There are the little Children who have gone to

Khaki Clad Boy With a Lump in
Throat Welcomes Home
Cooking.

Imagine your boy ON a troop train
bound for some United States seaport
where a transport lies ready to take
him and his regiment "over there"
He never felt healthier in his life-in
body. In mind? If he finds moments
when his thoughts begin to race back
toward you, wondering what you are
doing, can you blame him if occasion
ally something Jumps in his throat
about as comfortable as billiard ball?
And then the train grinds to a stand
still. Some one yells, "Big eats; oh,
boy" as several Red Cross uniforms
flash out in the crowd on the station
platform. For here is a Red Cross
emergency canteen. Here he can get
c0ffee-goOd, hot acoffee-sandwiche
candy, tobacco, fruit, postal cards and
almost anything that he may have for
gotten.
Does it help his spirits? Does it?
Does it cheer him to get these snacks
of good home tasting food served by
women like those in his own family?
Probably the most valuable part of the
Red Cross canteen service work is the
effect of the smile and cheer from the
women who are in charge. Soldiers
write frequently such messages as the
following, indicating their apprecia-
ton Of this branch of Red Cross
work:
"The Red Cross of Chicago met us
with coffee, sandwiches and post cards.

Cross and help the boys who have vol
unteered their lives"
There are now more than 500 Of
these Red Cross canteens or refresh
ment units located at the important
railroad centers In the United States.
Every commander of troop train has
a list of these canteens, so that he can
call upon the Red Cross for this serv-
ice at these stations en- route.

In Messines and Other Poems the trans
lator has done the poet a great kindness
by sticking close to the original-no easy
task in translating rhymed verses. The
French and English, lines are on pages
that open together. On one page, Noel:
"Jai couru les bois, j'ai couru les champs,
Je mai pas trouve Mere ct rEnfant.
Jai marche longtemps
Par touts les deserts:
Jai vogue longtcmps
Sur toutes les mers
Je mai trouve Ia Mere ct rEnfant."
Facing it, Christmas:
Il ran through woods, ran through fields,
did not find the Mother and Child.
walked for long
Gross deserts Wild
tossed for long
On every sea
l did not find the Mother and Child"
The only intrusive vocable is the ad-
jective that qualities the deserts in transa-
ton; the only loss is the rhyme of "les
deserts" and lies mers." The "effect" of
the original is reproduced with accuracy.
Mrs. Harold Nicolson's east" in
Poems Of West and East is Constanti-
nople, her "West' is England. Her songs
of the East are full of charm; they seem
to celebrate the real East without vio-
lence to the established conventions Of its
poetic praisers.
There are 100 poems in Mr.. Braith-
waite's Golden Treasury. The assemblage
is rebuke to those who scott at magazine
verse. The magazines print lot of slush

This collection includes poets of every
stripe-among them Conrad Aiken. Dana

Woodbury., Edith Wyatt. 1t is a rich
collection. .' -. .'..
From James T. White & Co. of this
town come four books of verse, uniformly
bound in an attractive cover design of red
and gold, which seem to us to give some
good "minor" poetry form it we'll de-
serves. Mrs. Linn's Cyc,e Of Sonnets
ought to win for her very respectable
place in the sun Of literary publicity.
Her other volume, From Dream to Dream.
will be welcomed by many readers whose
taste is broadly inclusive rather than
sternly eclectic; the rather indiserim-
mating but enthusiastic audience for whom
no sincere practitioner of verse need be
ashamed to write. Poets cannot all be
grand old masters and following of
democratic readers is not to be despised.
MIR. Griflith's collection includes the Cify
Pdstorais which have attracted good
deal OF attention. The Final Star throws
not few cheerful rays into the unpoetic
regions Of commonplace.

Failure to adopt successful for
