The Bensons

LITE AND LETTERS OF MAGGIE BENSON. BY
her brother. Arthur Christopher Benson With
portrait. Svo, pp. 446 Lonsmans Green & Co.
The daughter of an archbishop of
Canterbury, and the sister of three
eminent men, Margaret Benson was
little known to the world, and scarcely
at all to America. Yet she was sin
guarly gifted woman and a most in
teresting personality, who, had her in
clination thus moved her and her
health permitted, might have risen to
public cminence equalled by few Of
her contemporaries of her own sex. 1t
was doubtless q labor Of love for Mr..
benson to prepare this fine memorial
OF his sister, and yet it was we'll worth
while from other points of view. The
book reveals to US a personality which
we are glad not to have missed, and
it also gives us an intimate and fas-
cinating view of the home life of very
noteworthy family.

:, AS thesis for university degree
this work is extraordinary. As His
tory OF an interesting and attractive
personality it is worthy of its theme;
which IS saying great deal. AS a
study Of Dunlap's place and influence
IN American literary, dramatic and pic
torial art it is entitled to serious and
grateful consideration. Dunlap was
not great creative genius in any Of
the three fields of effort in which he
was conspicuous, as DR.. Coad Justly
recognizes. But he was pioneer, who
did excellent work of it's kind and who
eSerted a bcneficent and enduring in

ly Henry Holt & Co.
One Of the supreme questions before
the world in the near future will be
that of the basis upon which the new
delimitations OF political sovereignty
in Europe are to be made. Is it to be
chronological or pathological? The au-
| thor of this most scholarly and ex-
, haustive work. and the writer Of its
! Introduction. Madison Grant. think it
will be the latter. at least to a larger
degree than the former Races have
become ineXtricably mingled and
mixed, and race consciousness has
greatly declined. Macedonia could not
be disposed of ethnologically, nor
could parts Of the Hungarian kingdom.
1t is true that in some places the lin
suistic mixtures are nearly as bad, but
not generally.
Moreover language is stronger
bond, practically, than race. Men of
different races reading and speaking
the same language are closer together
and in greater sympathy with each
other than those OF Che same race but
different languages. Thus far we must
cordially agree with Mr.. Dominian.
Whether it will be practical to rear
range the map OF Europe on even ap-
proXimately linguistic lines is, how
ever, another question. At any rate,
this volume is most timely, n thor
oughly scholarly and a fascina atingly
interesting discussion Of the subject,
which it would be impossible too highly
to recommend.

man will know that effort spent in teach
ing him the language will be effort well
spent They can spend their time on q
man of this type rather than on a dullard
who after he has learned the language
has not enough intelligence to be taught
to become an able soldier. Those who
fall very low in the individual exaInina-
ton are put into the development bat
talon, to determine whether it is worth
while to attempt to train them for regular
service.
AS rapidly as possible psychological ex-
aminirg is being perfected in all the
camps. A school in military psychology for
the purpose of training men to do this
work has been In session since February
first. A report from this department in
Washington covering the work UP to June
first showed that az that time psychology
cal examining had been started In II
camps, and examinations had been given
to 100000 men.
The work at Camp Hancock is in charge
Of Lieut.. John J. 3. Morgan. He is as
sisted by Lieut. Hood. Seret. Williams,
and Privates Jones, Holley and Mccarthy.
Lieut.. Morgan is well-known in psyohol-
ogical circles, He is member OF sew
eral psychological associations, he has
and has published q number OF scientific
articles. He has decorate from Co.
lumbia University, studied as q fellow in
the Johns Hopkins University and left a
position on the faculty of Princeton Uni
versity to enter the service. He was one
of those who entered the army work in
its experimental stage and hence Is thor
oughly familiar with all phases Of psychol-
ogical examining.
