quiatessenee Of rematic realism. The
display is of commonest qualities in
crucial and unfamiliar action. Mr..
Conrad's people were born to be com
mon, but, pressing and transmitting
them under the weight of many sur
charged atmospheres, he has kept
them from becoming commonplace"
THAT part Of his restraint which
is on the lower plane Of taste shows
in the composition Of his finest wo-
men, such as Mrs. Could Antonio
Avellanos, Natalie Haldin in Under
Western Eyes, or Flora de Barral in
Chance, women who, however much
or well they speak, give the effect of
inarticulacy because they keep so
much behind for the intuition to
catch or miss according to it's desert
Hardly in the whole list of his people
is there to be found hysterical char
acter Of Importance. He is truly the
aristocrat among rough and, as we
fatuously say, common lives as Mr.
Henry James is the aristocrat among
lives reared under an exquisite human
horticulture; and the ideally right re-
serve, with whatever debilities ac-
companied in this or that instance, is
the fine flower of aristocracy every
where"
"The characteristic adventure Of
Mr.. Conrad's life has been the dis
covery of men in their undiscouraged,
their obstinate, their sometimes blind
and tragic groupings for hand to
touch in friendship or in love. The
purpose of his fiction
is to preserve them as he found them

LIBRARY NOTES

Works of Joseph Conrad; reviewed
by Mrs. W. R. Chambers.
In the library may be found most
interesting little book by Wilson Fol-
lett: Joseph Conrad, Short Study.
It is unusual in that it says nothing
of his life and its relation to his
work, but is really an essay, giving,
as the author says, Gan account in
general terms of Mr.. Conrads intel
lectual and emotional attitude toward
his work, and of the most striking
characteristics Of that work"
1t is a wonderful tribute to Mr..
Conrad and should be more widely
read by those who are fond of his
books, several of which may be found
in the library.
The following excerpts give bet
ter idea of the tone of this essay than
anything | can write:
What as readers we have most
notably to thank Mr.. Conrad for, is
his promoting US to a rank of some
dignity. He compels his public to
read him creatively, with mind in
tensely operative; and having done
that, to read him again"
In the analysis under applied pres
sure, of types originally comparable
to a score of folk one might have
known, he acquaints one with latent
valour and virtue, with hidden def
cheney such as one can never know eX-
cept in rare moments of stress, and
one can but accept the result for the
Wood County reporter. [volume] (Grand Rapids [i.e. Wisconsin Rapids], Wis.) 1857-1923, 1920-12-16
BUY CHRISTMAS SEALS

Wisconsin's decreasing death rate
from tuberculosis and the effective
ness of Wisconsin's organized cam
paign against tuberculosis are being
used IN other. states as convincing
arguments of what can be done and
as reasons why they should have a
big Christmas seal sale to enable
them to follow this states leadership.
Michigan, which has had an increas-
ing instead of decreasing death rate
for several years, is basing a special
appeal for large sale on what Wis
consin has done.

ious intimacy, he accepts his readers
into the same privileged sodality. AS
years go by and the number of pages
grows steadily, the feeling grows up
on one, too, that one can write only
for friends"
HE has his share of subsidiary and
transient phases of truth. Yet, Mr..
Conrad has remained as artist who
facing all such truths and half truths
IN an age when they are most ripe,
has given US, not new feminism,
new sociology, new religion or even
New Though, but generous handful
of new stories"
