Changes in Modern Art

is their due. The only American art

solutely ignored. l have shown the
essential provincialism of the book, a
provincialism which, very possibly.
the British public demands Git is an
important publication), but which. is
a distinct blot upon the work.
Apart from these faults. which are
grave ones. there is much in the
book which is helpful to the man
who would understand modern art.
Marriott shows clearly how the I'm
pressionist movement was the nat
ural effect of the tendency of the
whole world TO study facts and to
ignore design, composition, rhythm.
Marriott considers this tendency a
heresy. at must be said plainly" he
writes, that the Impressionist
painters in a body were much less
heretical in practice than they were
in theory. To put it another way.
they were too good painters to be
very consistent Impressionists. am
not sure that the fairest description
of Impressionism would not be a
movement in which the talents of
certain painters were hindered by
undue respect for the evidence of
optical vision, which undue respect
was the reflection in painting of the
prevailing heresy of the nineteenth
century"
And again:
"All this, as I have tried to show,
was part and parcel of the general
tendency of the nineteenth century.
The solemnity of belief was ex-
changed for the solemnity of the
facts. 1t was the age of the so-called
practical man, in all his perversions.
from the captain of industry to the
scientific expert. Impressionism, in
short. was nothing but the scientific
materialism of the nineteenth CEN
fury carried to its logical conclusion
in the art of painting. Its freedom
was illusory, because the authority
of tradition is never so exclusive as
the authority of sect"

true that every little boy or girl who

ALLENBY'S FINAL TRIUMPH. BY
". 7. Massey. T.. =. Dutton & Co.
TN "Allenby's Final Triumph" the
English correspondent w. T.
Massey carries to completion
the task he began so entertainingly
in THE Desert Campaigns of mar
rating the military story of the
Egyptian Expeditionary Force. Mr..
Massey's first volume devoted to this
extensive and remarkable campaign
was of a popular nature. His second
book has less of this character and
dent and gains in permanent interest
thereby. He is a very great admirer
of Gen. Allenby and has been made
to feel in England that the Palestine
campaign is looked upon merely as
one of the side shows" of the world
war. an estimation that he consid-
ers rather unfair. since. in his judg-
ment. the blows Allenby delivered
against the Turks and their German
commanders was one of the main ele-
ments in the final defeat of the Cen
trail Powers.
The first eight chapters of this VOL
ume are devoted to a review of the
war status in the early spring of
1918: how Allenby's army was de-
pleted by calls for troops from the
western front: how he trained his
requirements; the operation of
crossing the Jordan i'm March; the
attack on Amman and how the army
was camoufiaged to conceal it's
movements preparatory to the final
grand attack that began on Septem-
Der 10, 1918. Seventeen chapters OF
purely military description are given
