book; many are half tones from
photographs, and, though the repro
ductions are small, they are in most
cases so chosen that they illustrate
admirably the point made by them;
but the genuine triumph of the book
is the authors own drawings, some
in perspective and some architec-
tural plans, sections and elevations.
These are as valuable to the practi3-
ing architect as to the layman, ard

beautifully drawn visual expositions
Of the processes by which the art CT
each period grew. became great and
declined are, to the architect at
least, the crowning feature of
splendid piece of work. Drawings
made to be reproduced at so small
scale cannot show everything, bn.
the exquisite faculty for selection
which the author shows everywhere
appears at it's apogee in these draw
ings, which tell the reader all he
needs to know without confusing
him with illegible and Gnimportant
details.

cism" has become panegyric, but
one doesn't every day find the best
book ever written on as important
subject as architecture, and that Sir
Banister Fletcher's book is. He is
almost perfectly equipped for the
task; his vast knowledge, his beauti-
full craftsmanship. his patience. his
selective faculty. all would be insult
ficient did he not join to them a
catholic appreciation of all arts and
a perfect willingness to praise where
praise is due. We need no more

proof of immortality rests on the
accusers they fail. And Mr.. Cham
berlain does very well in establish
ing a definite which is
always no small achievement.
There is one very curious item,
however. in the case of the so-cailed
Arthur Dudley. who turned up in
Spain, claiming to be a son of
Leicester and the Queen. Mr.. Cham
berlain seems to think that this was
deliberate subterfuge on Eliza
beth's part, She was willing to
slander herself in order to fool the
Pope and the Spaniards. Says Mr..
Chamberlain:
NO greater sacrifice could be
asked Of any human being than of
good woman deliberately to fill the
whole world with stories of
her own immortality in order to help
her people. Yet Elizabeth, according
to the most informed opinion, did
this very thing when she sent the
so-called Arthur Dudley to Spain"
1t is. of course, possible, but there
Is not lacking other reason to believe
Dudley an impostor. Mr.. Chamber
lain applies the same process Of
argument in other cases, where the
diplomatic excuses are palmer and
the Queens own part less fishy. But
his main argument is stronger in
showing that the charges generally
fan of their own inherent weakness.
The case of Hatton is a little
harder 10 handle, but he succeeds in
evolving an innocent explanation of
it. 1t was of him that 1t has often
been said that Elizabeth made him
Lord Chancellor because he danced
well. To which Mr.. Chamberlain re-
torts that there have been worse
ways of choosing occupants of that
once respected Office. She
could very likely have selected from
room full of dancing lawyers i.
the man who would best have filed
The New York herald., 1922-03-19

that post-she would never have
been the Great Queen if she could
not have come very near doing it,
But, as matter of. fact, Hatton
filled many minor posts and was an
efficient man for very many years
before he was made Lord Chancellor
Ii is fair example of the current
slurs upon her Judgment
VI.
Mr.. Chamberlain brings out
strongly that all Elizabeth's favorites
and advisers were highly capable
men, of whom he holds Leicester
the most important. In him he sees
the progressive leader, who, perhaps,
needed the check Of Cecil's intermit-
tent conservatism, but who neverthe-
less was more responsible for prog
ress than any save the Queen her.
self. 1t was a system of balanced
party government, so far as that
may be under so absolute mon
arch; and as to that, Elizabeth her
self, though she firmly believed that
she was Queen by Divine right,
nevertheless was sensitive to popu-
lar opinion, and knew that she held
her throne for the people and not
for herself alone.
Therein lies her surest proof of
true greatness. Positive, even stub
born, bent on. her own way, she
nevertheless always meant that way
to be the best one for the nation.
Mr.. Chamberlain has deprived her
of the picturesque though i'm
proper" train of lovers, but he also
shows her as, in the truest sense.
genuine lover of her people. His
book is contribution of new values
to an understanding of that most
important, formative era in the
worlds history. One may not agree
with him at all points, but he makes
out good case, and is entitled to
a verdict on the evidence as he
gives it.

encumbrance to her, but in that the
blame for his death began to fix itself
upon her more and more forcibly.
Suspicion was based upon several
facts: That no more than a perfume
tory search for the murderers was
ever made; that Mary was often
seen with the Earl of Boutwell,, who
was popularity believed to be the
guilty party; that Illicit relations be-
tween them were rumored, and that
in the end Boutwell, divorced his wife
and married the Queen.
Through all these events, as the
letters plainly tell us, Mary was los
ing in prestige among her people and
opening the way for the perfidy and
the intrigues that were to force her
to abdicate and flee in disgrace to
England. Even at the present day
there is something deeply pathetic in
the spectacle of Mary throwing her
self upon Elizabeth's mercy, only to
find. when too late, that all the
promises of the English Queen were
empty as air, and all her professions
of friendship but the honeyed words
with which the spider lures the fly
into the web. For having entrapped
her dangerous Scottish rival, Eliza
beth was clearly not anxious to let
her escape; and taking advantage of
the famous "Casket Letters" which
even to-day are regarded by many
as forgeries, she fixed upon Mary
the blame for Darnley's death and
signed the death warrant of the
woman to whom she had written, II
shall be so careful of your life and
honour that yourself or any other
parent could not have them more at
heart
The correspondence between Eliza
beth and Mary Stuart brings out
strikingly the characters of the two
women. The former stands forth as
a willy, unscrupulous, unsentimental,
almost masculine, person, with a
strong inclination toward the prin-
ciples of Machiavelli: the latter ap-
pears to be essentially feminine, with
a highly strung emotional nature
that often causes her to be ruled by
her heart rather than by her mind,
by her more human feelings than by
a cold political wisdom. And, be-
cause Mary was the more human OF
the two, she was no match for Eliza
beth in the game of rulership; but,
for the same reason. Elizabeth has
proved no match for her in taking
hold of the sympathies and the affec-
tons of succeeding generations.

lin Company.
A PECULIAR interest attaches
~ to the figure of Mary Stuart
as one of the most tragic and
at the same time one of the most
fascinating characters in modern
history. Whatever were Mary's
faults and weaknesses" states Mr..
Mumby in the preface to his volume,
'she still exercises her magic power
over the minds of men, just as she
did more than three hundred years
ago" For she still holds sway by
means of soft enchantment," the
allurement of a delightful femininity
and of a rare innate grace; and her
failings and the misfortunes of her
life only serve TO enhance the glamof
that surrounds her.
The method pursued by Mr.
Mumby is an unusually effective
one; he proceeds chiefly by portray
ing Mary as she appeared to her con-
temporaries: he reproduces letters
written by Mary herself, by Queen
Elizabeth, by Catherine de Medici
and by score of other notables of
the time; and through this corre-
fpondence we are able to trace the
course Of events in the sixteenth CEN
tury, to gain an understanding OF
the motives and emotions of the chief
actors in the Scottish English drama
and to follow the plots and the in
trigues that led to their ultimate tri-
umph or downfall
A period of only three years is en-
braced in Mr.. Mumby's narrative,
yet few characters either in history
or in fiction have lived through three
years so fraught with disaster. In
deed, the story of Mary Stuart reads
more like romantic tale than like a
chroniele of fact, for her descent
from the queenship to an ignomini-
pus death, while not unparalleled in
history is yet so extraordinary that
even to-day we can but marvel to
hear of it. We first see Mary safely
established on the throne OF Scot
land; then we witness the I'll advised
marriage with Lord Darnley, and
observe the quarrels between hus-
band and wife, their growing breach
as the husband proves himself more
and more unworthy; Darnley's jeal-
ousy when the Queen shows favor to
David Riccio, and the elimination in
Riccio's assassination. Following
this, we view the various disagree
ments and reconciliations between
the royal couple. receive hints of a
plot against Darnley's life, and OBJ

THE TRAINING OF A SECRETARY.
BY Arthur L. Church. Philadelphia:
j. 3. Lippincott Company.
n RR. CHURCH differs from
V most men who write on any
given vocation. Most books
dealing with vocations are very
serious and austere in manner, as IL
the authors were preaching or lee
turing. Mr.. Church has the genial,
friendly style of an after dinner
speaker. The reader gets the i'm
preston OF charming and cultured
personality behind all that he says.
Like most after dinner speakers, he
seems 10 cover wide field. How
ever, his most discursive material is
really direct and to the point. 1t
makes the task of the secretary
seem more vital and interesting.
Mr.. Church shows the derivation
of the word secretary from the noun
secretum, a secret. Hence it orig
inally meant person in whom con-
fidence was placed. Nebuchadnezzar
is pointed out as making use of
scribes, and their Importance in
handing down documents is duly
noted.
In his chapter on THE Secretary in
Literature Mr.. Church mentions
Dogberry's demand for secretary
to write him down an ass. He then
quotes the secretary of the Pickwick
Club, and later speaks of Caddy
Jellyby as the first foreign secretary.
When he has shown that the career
of secretary is more interesting and
important than is generally realized
Mr.. Church takes up the duties of
the secretary and explains them
carefully. He started with Nebu-
chadnezzar, but he winds up with
the multigraph and the dictaphone.
In his biographical exemplars Mr..
Church sticks rather closely to his
native State. He gives an account
of James Logan, the first Secretary
of Pennsylvania. He pays a tribute
10 John Clark Sims, secretary Of the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company.
and to John Heman Converse, his
own predecessor as president OF the

esses of evolution extremely gradual
and yet leading to extraordinary
divergencies.
The Gothic art is superficially as
different from that of Greece as it is
from the art of China, and yet Gothic
architecture was distinctly an evo-
luton from the Greek, an evolution
which took 1900 years, but which
was continuous during all that pc
riod; and by somewhat accelerated
process the classic architecture of
to-day is derived from Gothic,
through the Renaissance period and
the period of the Classic Revival.
Previous to the time of the Roman
Empire the developments of archi-
lecture were regional, and are so
treated by the author; during the
Roman period the art of the whole
known world was consolidated into
single phase, and after the break
up of the empire art became again
regional. although, as all post Ro-
man art was based upon and derived
from Roman, and as intercourse be-
tween different nations was much
more common than before the days
