A Plea for Fathers

THE SEVEN AGES OF MAN. BY
Ralph Bergengren. Boston The
Atlantic Monthly Press.
r. ROM babyhood to the very olde,
r olde man is long, long way,
- according to Shakespeare and
Ralph Bergengren. These delightfully."-
whimsical sketches about the baby
that endeavors to describe it's elders,
the man who sees naught but perfec-
ton in his true love, and the father
who, whether he ascends to the Presi
dency or falls to the gutter, will al.
ways run the chance of having his
him, are amusing and attractive
The recklessness with which some
young people undertake to raise chill
dren would seem to strike Mr.. Bergen
gren rather sharply for he says:
80 taken for granted is this voca-
ton of fatherhood and so little consid-
cred in comparison with other mascu-
line employments that no correspond
ence school offers course, and many
a young man undertakes to raise chill
dren with less hesitation than he
would start to raise chickens"
Take heed, prospective fathers, and
look ye to future bunders. Buy this
book and learn that fatherhood is a
profession as well as taxicabbing. Per-
-haps they will realize the truth Of the
Italian cobbler who told the following
truths about his latest child: Zee fad
der and zee modder," he said "zey
work and zey slave for zee leetle one.
But whata good? When he is grown
he say, "To hell with zee fadder and
zee modder!"

of bliss, single or otherwise. runs
throughout the book. All engaged
married or divorced people should read

| muscle to an extent dictated and
measured by his inherent powers, his
persistence, imagination-and his for
tune, good or bad. How much waste
of labor-opening of false veins, han
ding of worthless materiaEmay he
be saved from by a friendly, helpful
word from the librarian, who knows
the tools and their use and presum-
ably the fruitful places wherein he
may advantageously invest his toll"
Mr. Teall delivers himself of a little
apostrophe to his old college library in
these words: "Oh, little home of my
heart, where were kept the older vol
umes, the books tried and true. the
standard books and classics, the tones
full of faith and philosophy and dis
titled experience; you moth
cred my mind, you gave me what / got
Of education. You did not dictate, you
did not give marks for excellence and
conditions for inefficiency; you
opened your chests and ran the risk
of plundering by unworthy hands
rather than chance withholding the
contents of your treasures from de-
serving questors."
The author discusses every phase
of reading. File deals with the news
paper in a broad, enlightened manner
which is fitting in one who spent
years at the editorial desk. The value
of magazines and the function of book
reviewers and reviews are discussed
with a calmness and reflectiveness
that soothes and pleases.

"The book is a germ carrier in the

on the Jacket and for once the blurb
is the truth.

fine lyric lines, with above all a strong
feeling of sincerity. Her best work
is undoubtedly among the shorter
poems that follow, where we find some
exquisite bits. Prologue, for instance
shows her delicate and fanciful inn
agination. 1t begins:
Paint the sky midnight black. Hang

In the highest tree.
Scatter the flowers Of June
Irrecoverably.
All the verse has the charm of sim.
plicity, and most of it is characterized
by a wistful sadness, such as we fine
in EIegy or In Memory of. Unfor-
tunately there is not room to quote all
of Cradle Song, one of the loveliest

oG the incident that sings in the line:
The tall, pale widow is mine, Joe, the
little brown girls for you.
From India to America is a long
jump, but he lands on his feet. His
impressions began in San" Francisco
and ended in Coney Island or there
about. He found Americans worthy
of several of his gentlest compliments.
Even in complex and composite New
York / should say that simplicity is
the keynote of the American char
acter. 1t is in his simplicity that the
American differs most from the Euro
pean. such simplicity is perfectly
consistent with the impatience, the
desire for novelty, for brevity, of the
American people," And as to "the
American face" 1.-THE average Amer
lean face is, think, cleaner than ours,
and healthier. One sees fewer ruined
faces than in English cities, fewer men
and women who have lost self-respect
and self-control." And as to clothes:
America is full of surprises, due to
the uniformity of clothing and a GER
tain carelessness which elevates COM
fort to ritual. The man you think
of as millionaire may be a drum
mer,' or the other way. A pungent
and amusing chapter deals with 1.-THE
Press" Says he: Whatever bushel
measures may be used in the United
states, the concealing of light is no
part of their programme.
Profusion is a characteristic of the
American newspaper. There is too
much of everything. When it
comes to choice Of news, one cannot
believe that American editors are the
best friends of their country. 1 am
holding no brief for many English
editors; / think our papers can be
common, too. but I think
that more vulgarizing of life is at
present effected by American journal
lists than by English. There are, how
ever, many signs that we may catch
up"
And Mr.. Lucas makes this penetrat-
ing remark about American women !:
Their federacy almost amounts to a
solid secret society; not so much
against men, for men must provide
the snews Of war and other COM
forts, but for their own satisfaction" !"
And then: Both sexes appear not to
languish when alone"

has attained the dignity of an
institution, and a new book by
him is always welcome. In most of
these papers he is at his pleasant best
in dealing with the growth and pres
ent developments of the English Ian
guage, novelties in current expression,
newspaper English, slang, the utility
of dialect. the exploits of the adver-
tiser, &c. There is also included an
excellent paper on Mark Twain and a
consideration of the possibility of es-
tablishing a world language"
AS to the last. Prof. Matthews nat
urally has little belief IN the making
of any artificial language, such as Es-
peranto, lido or Volapuk. The obiec-
tions are obviously insuperable. But
he is inclined to foresee the worldwide
dominance Of two languages, English
and French. 1t is, in fact, already
practically necessary for the speaker
of any other tongue to learn either
English or French If he is to do bust
ness or communicate with anybody
outside his own country. The war has
done a great deal to spread each of
these tongues, and the process of in
ternational trade continues and
strengthens that tendency. German,
he thinks, is forever done for as a
means of international communication.
He also calls attention to the over
whelming weight of the two great

SEA POEMS. by Gale young Rlce. the
Century Company.
l"HIS volume confirms the place
of Gale Young Rice among the
leading American lyric poets
of the day. Composed as 1t is pri-
marily of reprints from previous
works, this latest collection shows
Mr.. Rice in no new aspect; but it has
the merit of gathering together much
OF what is best in his poetry, and
therefore of exhibiting him in his most
favorable light. AS the name i'm
plies, the book is composed of poems
dealing in some way with the sea; it
portrays the sea in all its phases,
from the monsoon OF the Indian Ocean
to the storms of the North Atlantic,
from the mystery and terror of sub
marine mountains to the serenity of
meditation over a FREELY on a summer
shore.
In spite of the dramatic tendencies
manifested in his poetic plays, Mr..
Rice's talent seems to be primarily
| lyrical; and though his work is
marred by too obvious echoes of Shell
ley and Swinburne, though it is occa-
sionally lacking in vitality and is
sometimes careless in construction,
vet it has an unmistakable singing
quality, a rhythm and grace of ex-
preston that make a strong appeal
to the emotions as well as to the ear.
In style and theme his lyrics are~con-
siderably varied. Compare these two
stanzas, one a love song out of the
heart and the other a piece of pure
nature music:
When we two walk, my love, on the
path
The moon makes over the sea,
To the end of the world where sorrow
hath
An end that is ecstasy,
Should we not think of the other road
or wearying dust and stone
Our feet would fare did each but care
To follow the way alone?
The quiverng terms dart wild and dive
AS the tide comes tumbling in.
The calm rock pools grow all alive,
With the tide tumbling in
The crab who under the brown weed
creeps,
And the snail who lies In his house
and sleeps.
Awake and stir, as the plungine
3weeps
Of the tide come tumbllng in.
I. inning throughout Rice's sea
pootry - a philosophic strain, not pro-
found, yet evidently born of sincere
reaction to the wonder and majesty
of the ocean. Confronted with un-
fathomable mysteries, he realizes that
the How and Wherefore of all things
are beyond his grasp, and instead OF
world born of the chance upheaval
of blind though gigantic forces he
chooses to see a universe with z
spiritual basis for it's existence.
The old peace that God Is. though ali
improved;
The old faith that though CULTS sidereal
The soul, and knowledge drown within
their deep,
There is no world that wanders-no, moi
OF all the millions--that lie does not
] keep
