these entertainers with great delight.
The civic clubs got n taste Of "The
Creightons" recently in the Elks hall
when Jack London played on his Won
derful fiddle and Crawford told some
of his inimtable yarns. AS a dialect
artist, Crawford ranks with the clev.
crest in this country; as a negro in.
terpreter, he is Georgia Peach"
There are a hundred hearty laughs in
his part OF the program alone. Their
music is popular enough to please the
multitude, but sufficiently classical TO
entertain the most fastidious. The
public is indebted to the ladies Of the
First Christian church for bringing
THE Creightons" TO Ardmore.

New-York tribune., 1922-11-12

that one does not at first perceivs ;ts
distinction.
Lucienne is a piano teacher In
provincial town, who secures an en-
gagement to teach two daughters of
railway superintendent. He Is sober.
kindly person, who lives in an unpre-
tentlous house among the rails. His
wife governs the family with arrogant
pomposity by virtue, chiefly, of a pre-
anded illness. The elder daughter Is
morose and willful, the younger sweet
and inconsequential. A cousin, visiting
in the region, is tacitly betrothed to
the elder daughter, there are scenes of
Jealousy between the sisters provoked
by the elder, the cousin and Lucienne
meet and fall instantly in love, and the
oook closes with dinner In their
honor in the house among the rails.
The plot Of novel by James is
frequently as meager, it's fabric is not
always finer. Indeed, there is in
"Lucienne" more than q single reminis-
cence of james. In the following, for
example. ! find an illustration of
Jamesian treatment.
"Je preferais lui fare sentir, par une
nuance de mon attitude, de mon regard,
par je ne sails quel signe de pensee
que je lui dediais lie petit supplice de
sa soeur. Je lui offrais celia CONNIE
un gage, ct avec rne intention cares
| sante."
Another observation will display the
alert precision of Mr.. Romain's appre~
hension. Lucienne and the cousin are
walking in the town az the dusk falls.
Suddenly they perceive Cecile, the ieal-
GUS daughter, of whom they have been
sneaking. "Elle semblait," says Lu-
cienne, "sortir non du movement de la
re, mais de celui de notre pensee. Et
dams la rue, CONNIE la-bas dams la
maison, ellie formait une sorte de
ou panimation paraissaient hrusque-
ment s'amortir ct manquer, un defaut
! dc la rue" This is how she sees the
servant in the smoky house among the
rails: "Chez les Barbolenet, on ris-
quait de la confondre avec larrange-
ment des lieux, d'apercevoir distraite-
mont en- ellie quelque chose CONNIE un
meuble capable de Sc deplacer par lie
seul effet de la voix."
The quality of the book is difficult to
seize in words. 1t is made up of OBJ
jective speculation and visualized sem
sation; it flows like cool, untroubled
gusts of tenderness running like warm
little winds in and out among the
words. It is closely, firmly written, the
result of excessive concentration and
enormous mental energy. At the same
time 1t breathes and moves with the
| rhythm Of Lucienne's respiration, halt
| ing when she takes breath, continuing
only after her lungs have been refilled
1t is hard to imagine book more diff
hcuit to write; it would not be easy to
find one more simply, more naturally
written. do not say that every reader
will find here a passionate, an absorb
ing nevle. I do insist that the appre-
clative reader will sense an atmosphere
Of impending disaster averted easily
and naturally, as in life itself, which
will provide sufficient drama to hold
his interest.
