THE RooKMAN ANTHOLOGY OF
VERSE BY John Farrar. Doran.
-w- F YOU want to know the trend Of

Instead, there is "The bookman
Anthology of Verse" which John Far
rar, with discerning judgment, has
COMPLIED from s'The Bookman's" poetry
files over a period of the last eighteen
months. And since most of the I'M
portaut American poets, and few
British, contribute to "The Bookman,"
this volume is representative OF the
best contemporary verse.
Not only may you know what our
best poets are up to, but you may
meet them as we'll. For Mr.. Farrar,
VINO by acquaintance or correspondence
knows all of them, has sketched, briefly
and with revealing phrase, a picture
of each poet in advance of his con-
tribution. adding thereby charming
ly intimate touch to book already
informal in the arrangement Of its
material Happy is tie effect. After
reading that Milton Raison is a dark
haired youth of eighteen and, like Rod
erick Random, with adventure at sea to
create around him picturesque legend
one is prepared to find in his sonnet
"Baffled'' traces Of autobiography in
miniature. Elinor Wylie is pictured
as pale, slender woman, "modest,
withdrawn and shy" The elusive per-
sonalities Of Sara Teasdale, Amy Low
ell, John Dos Passos, Aline Kilmer
the Bensts and many others are caught
in the moose Of swift, sure phrase
Of all the verses--and there is va
riety to tempt many tastes--the re-
viewer liked best Louis Untermeyer's

vivid as a dream. with the breathless
freedom of one Of Brahms's Hungarian

Am American Opera

oo9os aeGaSTs copany s.'Ins Boston The
wF MR.. GATH l-CASAzzA wants to
add real novelty to the pro-
n ductions TO be offered at the
AA- Metropolitan Opera House this
season, he should communicate with
Theodore Stearns, an American COM
poser, who has just completed q grand
opera entitled "Co-o-za."
In his quest for grand operate
material of distinctly American flavor,
Mr.. Stearns has wisely Stunned the
Indian legends which have seduce& go
many composers to their artistic doom.
The American Indian seems to Us TO
be representative neither of Anne erican
civilizat on nor temperament, nor yet
of the background from which we are
sprung.
Instead of going TO the redskin, Mr..
Stearns has gone thousands of years
further back and has seized upon At
lantis, the continent supposed to have
occupied space extending from Egypt
to Wyoming, including the area now
covered by the Atlantic Ocean. To the
Atlantis idea the composer has
joined the Edgar Allan Poe idea, and,
tins equipped as to material, he has
approached his task with the addi-
| tional equipment of being able to
write convincing dramatic dialogue
and to comnose a fitting score.
The scene opens in Broadway
theatre, then fits for the two main
ects to Atlantis .~ist before it's fall, and
closes with an epilogue again laid on
Broadway. If Joseph Urban ever gets
hold of "Co-o-za," he will have stag
pictures TO work with that Wagner
| never dreamed Of The savage spIep
dor of the Atlantis settings, combin-
ing gorgeous architectural cunning
with sophisticated ease, would engross 8
the gifted Urban.
Theodore Stearns was born In Ohio
and conducted grand opera as youtf.
in Bavaria; he has conducted many
light operas on Broadway, including
Kreisler's Apple Blossoms" He is
now musical critic for "The Chicago
Herald and Examiner"
Cocoa" happily, is not overloaded
with the melodramatic clantrap that
has remained so persistently identified
with grand opera. The names of the
characters are intended TO suggest the
nomenclature of 10000 years B. c., ana
are constructed of simple hyphenates1
sounds. The approaching fall of AZ
lafltis is adro tly handled, and the
slender volume, strangely enough the
work of an American Journalist and
composer, Is well worth place on
those hookshelves that keep awav from,

German department, was sent by Am
herst College to Germany in the sum-
mer Of 1920. He remained till the
winter Of 1921 interviewing public per-
sonages, watching the reconstruction,
sounding the political and artistic en-
deavor of the people, and his book con-
tains the report. Professor MantRey-
zorn has done his Job thoroughly. His
book is sincere and well-written piece
of academic journalism. One marvels
at the dogmatism and solidity of the
German people. Though the pressure
of social and economic upheaval was
not so great on Germany az on Russia,
Germany had the problem of diplomatic
compromise to face that threatened to
crush it as 8 nation. Russia, with its
absolute iextren1ism. escaped that. Yet,
by Professor Manthey book, one
sees that Germany has borne up under
the yoke admirably. This was due in a
good measure to the fact that the coun-
try did not go to pieces physically, as
did Russia. Germany's problems were
mainly mental. The split in Conserva-
tive and Socialistic ranks did not
manifest itself actively enough to ruin
that country, The government is in
secure while factions quarrel among
themselves incessantly. The average

refuses to be swerved from his poIiti-
cal beliefs. He refuses to compromise.
And in the drama and younger gem
Grafton he will find, If not a solution,
at least stabilization Of his problems
Professor Manthey-Zorn devotes the
heart of his book to discussion of
art In Germany. He points out how
the extreme radicalism, If not inanity
OF dadaism, which grew into power
full fad, and the protective conserve
tlsm OF the university group turning
to the Middle Ages and Catholicism are
tempered by the modern educational
system, which has been elaborated TO
take in workmen's organizations. PLAYS

THE RED GARDEN: BY Henning Keller;
TTsnslated from .rh the Danish da by Frithjoe
GERMANY IN TRAVAIL. BY Otto Man
they zorn, Amherst Books Marshall
Jones Company.
"% HE first realization that comes
ITO one in reading the above
books is the difference In the
Russia and Germany. "The Red
Garden" which paints the portraits of
the Russian peasant, merchant, soldier
and small official reacting to Bolshe-
vism, Is written by young Danish
diplomat who visited Russia in an off,
cial capacity. The sketches are brill
liantly written. Sometimes the brill
liancy Is carried to point Of brittle
ness Coming from an organized,
peaceful country, the Dane h. con-
tempt for the conditions he finds, which
sometimes adds spice to his portraiture,
but sometimes annoys the reader very
much. But for the most part the book
is delightful reading.
In reading books that have to do with
social disturbances one is usually
bored by long passages of pageantic
description wherein the author fails to
catch the color of that which he wishes
~ oSscRipeS 10 see tuiS ulniCulty au-
mirably surmounted, read "'The Red
Garden" Kehler has an ingenious
pattern Of phrasing, particularly in
description, which holds the eye. His
chapter on Russian cavalry, for in
stance, is masterpiece. Here the
| author drops every trace of a super
eilious tone. He besomes warm and
sympathetic and succeeds In making
the cavalry march across the pages.
His characters, which are obviously
caricatures, give the impression of be-
ing skillfully drawn. The chapter on
"The Red Garden" the heart of the
book, is without doubt the finest.
1t acts as a core around which
the other chapters are built. The mar
! rative of the Soviet leader who pas
man "who for two thousand years in
nocently had been chained to the pill
lory of capitalistic Interpretation of
history" comes as q thrilling cllmas as
| gripping as any detective story, when
! the orator unveils the statue of Judas
fscarioti Then the people shout, and
the bands play, while the mad leader
runs down to kiss his people. The
! clamor and the passion are interpreted
| in q manner that sweeps the reader
away with admiration.
Throughout the book the author
brings to view chaotic Russia that
is nowhere near the solution of it's
| problem. His visit having terminated
in the early part Of 1919 makes his
| stories a little out Of date. But the
| ,ttitude of the Russian is undoubtedly
the same to the present day. One
gathers from Keller that the once i'm
perial country is now q land of debris,
hunger, tragedy and death Of ideals
and hope. The essence Is tragic. One
regrets the talented and artistic Rus
sian who has gone to his ruin. AT
times Kehler breaks through and weeps

DELAWARE AND THE EASTERN
SHORE By Edward Noble Vallandie.
ham. J. p. Lippinoott Company.
"NH HE early history of the penin-
sula is here summarized mainly
4 TO make clear the interrelation
of its parts and the relation Of
the whole to its neighbors and to the
country at large. This book does not
pretend to be history of Delaware and
the, Eastern states. That story has
been written in large and in little by
many competent hands, but it contains
much historical matter introduced by
way of illustrating phases of industrial
and social development, and there are
personal and local incidents and anec.
dotes illustrative of the character and
temperament distinguishing people
isolated in some measure for three
centuries by the peninsular geography
of their home. 1t is an Interpretation
of the rare and somewhat elusive
charm of region distinguished by
the variety of it's quiet landscapes, the
rich freshness of its woodlands and
the unique beauty Of its waters.
