A Fine Negro Singer

FIFTY YEARS AID Other Poems nv James
Weldon Johnson. With an Introduction by Brander
Matthews. limo. PIP. xiv. sS. The Cotahill Com
pany.
1t seems pity that this excellent
book of verse by negro should have
been tagged with white mans intro
duction. Professor Matthews means to
help He binders by his praise-by his
presence. The negro has rare gifts of
music in his soul. He is certain some
day to bring them forth. When he does
they will be the voice of his Utmost
RACIAL soul-not the voice of a negro
Initiating the white man or needing a
certificate of merit. Mr.. Johnson's
finest poem. as it happens. holds this
very lesson. We give the first two
stanzas:
o black and unknown bards of long ago.
= How come your Inns TO touch the sacred fret
The power and beauty Of the MINISTER'S lyref
Who frs from midst hs bonds lifted his eyes'
Feeling the ancient faith OF prophets rise
Within his dariS-kept soul. bur,. into songf
Heart Of what slave poured ont such melody
AS steal Away TO Jesus? On lis strains
His spirit must have nightly foated free,
Who heard great Jordan Roil''g Whose starwaTd
49, Saw chariot swing low? And who was he
That brcsthed that comforting. melcdc sigh
Nobody knows de trouble, l see 2
This is eloquent and splendid. It
shows that Mr.. Johnson needs only
trust in his own themes and powers to
90 far. 1t is not at all necessary thaS
those themes should be expressed in
dialect-Mr. Johnson's dialect poems
show little originality. The point is
that he wrote out the essence Of his
soul exactly as every great poet. of any
color or race, has always done. G. ?.

I stood upon a battlefield in France
With all my sinews q%uivering for the
fray.
I saw my master buckle on his belt.
Vault to my back. and felt his long
careSs
About my arching neck, and then I
We must press onward to the battle
front.
I felt the fire leap in my eyes
And blaze its way along the path we
kept.
I'd carry him to victory,--I. his horse.
l would not fail him though the bull
lets whizzed
Like hail around us:-I would hold
him up
To do his share:-T'd be a hero's
I kept my faith,-I held him till he
fell.
And long hours after stood l by his
side,
Nor thought of fleeing until some n
took
bride in his hand and led me back
Beyond the firing line. care not

What may betide. since my dear
master lies
Dead on a field in France.

c. Meets The Needs

That the services rendered by the
American Red Cross on the western
front during the severe fighting of
the last month has contributed to
the success of our troops, is the
opinion expressed in letters from
American officers now being received
at the Paris headuarters of the or
ganization. One such letter, from
Major General Robert A. Billiard,
commanding the First Division in
France, is contained in a cable re-
ccivcd by the War Council of the
, Red Cross. 1t follows:
your prompt and liberal cooper
alton. abundance of supplies furnish
ed both to hospitals and to men en-
route to and from the Fl lid. and aid
rendered by your ambulance and
canton service in Transporting
wounded, were not only timely but
absolutely necessary to meet the
needs of our men. Indeed, it is diff
ficult to understand what the result
would have been without these ser
vices.
"The American people may we'll
feel proud of the organization which
they have built up and il is a matter
of congratulations that contributions
which they have made are used so
appropriately. On behalf of the di-
vision | beg you and your assistants
will accept my gratitude Red Cross

gvmen of old times is down and ont
when he reaches the battle fields of
France. No stupid tracts are handed
to us-we hear no morbid comments
on eternal damnation. Out of this
war will come a new religion. 1t
won't be a sin anymore to sing rag
time on Sunday as it were in the
days of my childhood. 1t won't he a
sin to play a game on Sunday. There
will be no room in this new religion
for sectarianism for narrowness. for
dogma or for the tenets of old time
theology. This business of wal is a
mansized business and out Of it will
come a manly faith-Harold Peat.
