Those who are fond of saying that
there is no poetry published in the

thentic lines of Theodosia Garrison
during the last decade. Her irish
songs. particularly. have sung their
way into the hearts of thousands OF
admiring readers, and have become
part of our lyric language. Three
volumes from Mrs. Garrisons prolific
pen have hitherto been issued, and
now comes a fourth stimulating group
of poems. with the delectable title, AS

understanding of homely and beautt-

a richer quality In every poem mel

The popularity OF Mrs. Garrison is
easy to comprehend. She says the
things we all think of-but cannot
utter. A syndicate could make Of her,

Of all the women writing verse to-
day none stands higher than Mrs
Garrison She has poise, and dignity

everything that she produces seems to
be the natural outpouring Of her soul
She Is like a nightingale that sings
because II must and her followers
have been quick to eaten the spcn-

Her themes are varied. A passionate
lover of Nature in her many mani

November or spring, and Is touched
by the evanescent beauty Of the world.
But when she strikes the human note
she reveals her true strength and her
finest feelings. and therefore achieves
the best results. Some of her love
songs will live in the anthologes.
