Eastern Dance and Drama

escape from life but "a part OF life

Back From Beyond the Veil

COMMUNICATIONS WITH THE NEXT
WORLD. BY William T. Stead.
Edited by Estelle w. Stead George
H Doran Company.
"HIs is book declared to have

its authorship is given to her father,
a we'll known spiritualist who per-

These conclusions, to confess the
truth, are not SO extraordinary as
the nature of the work might lead
one to anticipate. They are con-
cerned mostly with the conducting
Of seances. and describe what are
claimed to be the proper and i'm
proper methods OF communicating
with spirits. But here and there one
finds some highly interesting IL ap-
parently fantastic statements re-
garding life in the next world. 1t is
as difficult, we are told, for spirits
to come back to earth as il is for
the living to invade the spiritual
realm: the sensations of spirits are
vastly different from those of men,
and souls on the highest plane of
being find themselves so exalted and
so far removed from earthly interests
that communication with the living
is impossible. Even to those spirits
who hover near this world the ap-
pearances of things have become
radically altered: people do not
stand forth as flesh and bone but as
mind and spirit; magnetic waves.
thoughts and feelings vibrate from
them: and they are beautiful or
ugly. brilliant or dull. or OF inter
mediate degree. according to their
state of soul"
In the after world, according 10
the author. there are many planes
OF being. none of which bears any
close resemblance to that with which
we are acquainted. Spirits in the
lowest stage find conditions remotely

similar to those they were accus-
toned to on earth. but "the nobler
and more developed souls have a
life of thought and feeling which
surpasses in delight anything you
can imagine" Many. however. are
unable to attain to a knowledge of
that supreme state and whirl about
aimlessly as the shades whom Dante
saw tossed hither and thither like
dead leaves. In the earth's atmos-
phere there is an innumerable throng
of such spirits. wandering desolately
in search OF light on earth and rush

there is a possibility of making them

All this. of course. is more imag-
inative than convincing. more graft
flying to ones sense of poetry than
of truth. The fundamental failing

craftsman stands the race.
Miss Bloch makes very clear the
distinction between the Asiatic and
the European drama "Art is in its
essence an Interpretation OF life and
subject to the prejudice OF the indi.
vidual artist, but the tAsiaticl
drama is life itself speaking through
the crafts and by means Of a whole
inspired race" The Eastern theater

classical subject. Vermeer, he ad-
mits, may have destroyed some. But
then, he asks again. where are the
others?" And he suggests that some
of our millionaires ought to spend a.
part of their millions in hunting out
the missing pictures of Vermeer
which Mr.. Lucas believes must be in
existence. What hunt that would
be! And what glory in it's possible
rewards.
Sir Charles ]. Holmes, director of
the British National Gallery, contrib
utes an admirable introduction to the
monograph in which he gives his i'm
pressions of the manner in which
Vermeer worked in painting his pic
lures. Sir Charles, be it said, is the
only writer on art we know, in addi-
ton TO Philip Gilbert Hamerton, who
appreciated the sheer ability of car
riage painters for their skill in ap-
plying paint. He does this here by
showing thatsVermeer' skill with his
"edses" bore close relation to the
highly specialized craft of coach
painting in the past.
The New York herald., 1922-07-02

though younger generation of art
writer's pretend to ignore facts much
as a younger generation of painters
ignore drawing as unimportant-the
delightful thing about Mr.. Lucas's
text is his genuinely passionate aG-
miration for the work of his subject
Thus he says: Writing in another
place some years ago. 1 ventured to
call the Mauritshuis picture of a

IL the reader of the book has never
seen the Head OF a Young Girl" in
the museum at The Hague he can
form some impression of it from the
reproduction of the painting which
The New York herald., 1922-07-02

serves as frontispiece to this study.
There are thirteen reproductions of
Vermeer's paintings in all in the
book, of somewhat uneven quality
of half-tone work. but the frontis-
piece has the good fortune to be
singularly good. 1t conveys some
measure of the source of Mr.. Lucas's
enthusiasm as do the reproductions
of "A Woman Reading a Letter" of
"A Lady Writing a Letter" and of
the most exquisite Mistress and
Servant" now in the Frick collec-
ton in this city.
The outstanding difference between
this writer on art and most writer's
on art is that while they try to be
profound Mr. Lucas is only human.
He shows this in his analysis of the
reasons as to why Vermeer should
have been in debt to his baker. but
better still in giving his reason as to
why the writer believes there must
be more than thirty- of Yer
meer's paintings somewhere in the
world Lucas points out that if

VERMEER OF DELFT. By f. "
Lucas. George III. Doran Company.
"HIS brief but comprehensive
monograph on the life and
pictures of Jan Vermeer of
Delft is an enchanting study of the
work of man who was the purest
flower of seventeenth century Dutch
art. 1t tells all the few known facts
OF Vermeer's life; it names and de-
scribes all his acknowledged thirty
seven paintings; II is not made un-

and. what is even more remarkable
for an Englishman writing about an
internationally owned painter, 1t rec
ognizes that some of the best YER
meers are owned in the United
States. to which Mr.. Lucas adds an
other uncommon credit to himself
He has seen most of those owned

down about VerIneer and his pic
tures-and facts. after all. are the

fanciful turn of mind might not have
conceived for himself. This is not
to imply that the book does not set
forth the facts. for the facts them
selves may be indefinite and impos-
sible to establish; it is only to say
that it presents the claims of spirit
ualism so inconclusively that one
must withhold judgment pending
further evidence.

DANGER MONTHS COMING
 FOR AUTOMOBILE DRIVERS

Twenty-Five fatal motor vehicle acci- dents occurred in Connecticut during the month of August, according to announce ment made at the motor vehicle depart- ment- This is exactly the same number of such fatalities as were reported for the corresponding month of last year, but. in view of the fact that there were nearly 20,000 more cars on the highways this year, Is regarded as showing progress in the safety movement throughout the state.
 Hartford New Haven, Bridgeport Mer- iden and Danielson each reported two fatal accidents involving motor vehicles during the past month. In addition to these, New London, Derby, Norwalk, Bristol, Stamford, Sin1sbury, Berlin, Granby, WalIingford, New Britain, Dan bury. Willimantic, Andover, Windsor Locks and Middietown had one each.
 Every effort is being made by the motor vehicle department and the organizations cooperating with 1t in different sections of the state to keep down the number of automobile accidents during thi. month and the next September and Oc- tober holding the record as being as be l, ing the two worst months in the year for
 such accidents. Fall driving is then al 1 its height and the drivers are subject tc greater hazards by reason of weather conditions peculiar to this season of tht year such as rain, fog, failing leaves frost and other causes beyond the eontro of drivers.
