Every man aspires to be what he

that we can praise the sheaf Of poems,
Lines of Life" by Nevinson.
The author, who is we'll known as
an essayist. war correspondent, and
a writer of fiction and feature articles,
has here produced a volume of vigor-
ous thoughtful rhyme. with here and
there a ringing note of satire or IL
potent metaphor. He has enough
ideas to make a couple of poets. but
he expresses them without unity of
theme. philosophy or verse form.
In a vivid. poetic vocabulary, in
emotional intensity. and in passionate
impact of thought-the high lyrical
qualities-he is wanting. There are.
however. many signal pieces in the
volume; impressively conceived poems
like Prayer" "Blagoveschensk" and
"Epimenides the Cretan." In these
particularly Mr.. Nevison is a writer
of powerful prose who is experiment.

We have purposely given here only
an outline of the argument OF the little
book, for IL is in that its real value
lies. Mr.. Bachelor has not intended
to write a story, but he is too skilled in
the art of getting the readers attention
