THE CATHEDRAL. BY Hugh walpole
George II. Doran Company.
TT may be that this novel will appeal
to fewer American readers than some
of Mr.. Walpoes preceding work, but
assuredly, he has done nothing so fine as
this before. One is tempted to the use OF
architectural terms in describing it, for it
has something of the magnificence and i'm
posing weight of a cathedral; massive but
tremendously living. Perhaps even better
is the simile of pageantry; Mr.. Walpole
treats his story as a pageant and one lays
it down with the feeling of having taken
part in some vast play The dominant
thing is the great Cathedral itself not
merely as a symbol of the old religion but
also something of deity in itself,
Moloch, it may be- but overpowering. In
one splendid passage we read: "Individu-
ality was lost. The Cathedral thinking
nothing of Kings and Queens, of history.
of movement forward and retrograde, but
only of itself and of the life that it had
been given, that it now claimed for it's
own, with naughty confidence assumed its
Power the Power of its own Immor-
tality that is neither mans nor Gods"
This singularly effective personiication
of the Cathedral itself is unique in modern
literature; one must go back to medieval
artists to find any parallel. Yet Mr. Wal
pole is distinctly not a medievalist, and the
book itself. though concerned primarily
with the very definite era of the Jubilee
Summer of 1897, is also a forward looking
book. 1t records, sometimes concretely,
sometimes with delicate allegory, the pass
ing of an age, but it is not unaware of
the future.

BIG LAUREL. By Frederick Orin Bartlett
Houghton Mifflin Company.
4" HIS is small but dramatic story
that loses itself in being forced to
fill over three hundred pages. A tale
of what should be swift dramatic move
ment-the cave man love of Bud Childers
for the mountain girl, Roxie Kester, his
she loves and the final amicable settlement
of everything-it had possibilities But the
reader doesn't want to be bothered with
long disquisitions on the feelings of the
various characters nor to linger too much
on the beauties of the landscape If only
MIR. Bartlett would let them act it out
But, no. Whenever they begin he drags
them back with heavy hand and takes
the stage center himself. He cannot trust
them; they might forget to say something
subtle. And the reader who has become
interested and wants to know what is next
well, the reader skips. One hopes that
next time Mr.. Bartlett may take his MSS
into the silences and ask himself sternly:
Gould I, by mercilessly pruning every
thing but dialogue and action make a short
story of this?" The result might be a re-
markably good even a memorable short
story instead of a publishers size novel,
