Essays in England
Nv THE WINGS OF THE MORN

Nv THE WINGS OF THE MORN
" ING, by Arthur Grant, is book of
essays. It is likely that the reader will be
impressed particularly with that one which
tells of those country churches in Eng
land whose doors are open to the way
farer in times of peace and in this time
of war.
Not in al these churches is the door
left open. The essayist jOurneyed twenty
miles by rail and walked SIX miles to visit
a church in the depths of the New For
est, only to find it tight locked
No house was to be seen, no human
being, no discoverable repository that
might yield up the keys. He looked in at
a window and sought to comfort himself
with the assurance that the interior was
interesting.
More substantial solace was forthcom-
ing rs he wandered on. The half wild
charm of the environment lay under no
lock and KEY. He quite forgot his disap-
pointment in watching the gambolS of
some black forest swine under the oaks
where mast was plentiful.
These essays are full of quick change;
The sun. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1916-1920, 1918-07-14

we have to consider our art departments
nerves and our readers intellectual hap
piness, and SO We content ourselves with
reproducing particularly fine bit of Old
World scenery that might do TO illustrate
one of Victor IuSo's yarns-say les
Mlserables. What u pity Hugo did not
live to write of Paris bombarded from
the sky! What a pity that JuIss Verne
could not have been in Paris bonn
barded by German guns seventy odd miles
away!

the many Impressions are frequently
slight and ilcc,ing. In another Hampshire
church the door was open and the "toO
familiar placard in the porch bore the
invitation to remember iii prayer the
King and all in authority, our sailors, sol
dicrs and allies, the suffering, the anxious,
the sorrowful."
This church. like many another English
village church, contained small library
OF books, requests of the considcralc and
the pious. A food Of memories comes With
the naming of the authors of these books
Hooker, Jeremy Taylor, Foxe, Law,
Pussy, Wherefore, TAFT, Hook, Trench.
1t WIS the last named, us We remember,
who too shrewdly conceived that Welsh
rabbit was Il corrupt spelling and ought
to be Welsh rarehit Surely nobody who
respects humor will let the good Arch
bishop spell for him.
In a flash we pass to other scenes and
impressions, and still to others.
Here is Thomas a Kempis; here is
Drake, with two of Newbolt,s robust lines
about him; here are Cromwelrs Puritan
sea kings riding the Channel waves; here
the swarmlng soldiers who at this day have
transformed the south of England INTO n
vast camp. The essayist rambIed in Eng
land and Scotland, and he saw and re-
called with a keen eye and an unfailing
memory.
