Sabatini'S THE Lost King
Tells of DaNbhm s Escape
Best Poetry
Of TeaSdale
In Volume

Collecting Sara Teasdale into
one volume was something Of q
task. The cream had to be culled
from eight different books and
that was sort Of like blind mans
buff, considering that EVERY
body's favorite" had to be gotten
into the new edition.
Happily, Miss TeaSdale, her.
self, nghtened the labor in the
last years of her life by elimi-
mating certain poems. We have,
therefore, her favorite selections
(and almost everybody else's)
beautifully bound together in
gold and green and freshly pub
lished by Macmillan.
sONNETS TO DUsE
In order that the display
would be complete, the collec-
ton starts with the poets Son
nets To DuSe" which were taken
from a book out Of print and I'm
available. First published In
1907, they sound a little strange
and ornate to readers familiar
with the simpler and more NOV
ing style which later character.
lied her work. Comparing the
changes in mood and tempo as
the years nodded her outlook
enchances the value Of this
volume. The Sara Teasdale who
wrote "Helen of Troy" in 1911 is
a far hail from the Sara Teas
dale who wrote, for instance,
Strange Victory" in 1888.
She was different and her
poems were different. The col
lection, in consequence, with
its varying styles and expires
Sicns, has an appeal lacking in
the separate volumes.
HER PORTRAIT
People who are very particu-
lar about the poems they like
are almost bound to find some
thing here. And those already
dedicated to Miss Tesadale and
her art will be happy to know
that her portrait faces the title
page. Since there will never
be any more Ct her work it is
fitting to have her face pictured
in this her last contribution to
poesy.
Miss Teasdsle wrote a good
deal about death and so There
Will Be Rest" finishes this col
lection. It comes from Strange
Victory" in which she seemed
to sense the end in everything
she wrote. The best Of the
book, therefore, lies in its
center, between the "SonnetS to
Duse" when she was feeling her
wsy and There Will Be Rest"
when peace was all she wanted.

Exciting Tale
By a Master
Story Teller

II Louis XVII escaped from
the Temple, what happened to
him? There are almost as many
answers to that question as
there are historians eager to
solve the riddle. The only thing
upon which they generally agree
is that the Dauphin did escape.
Stefan zweig, for instance, has
no time to dwell upon this In
his biography Of Marie An
toinette," but in the closing
chronological table, mentions
June 8 as the alleged" death
Of the Dauphin.
And in discussing the Count
Of Provence, later Louis XVIII,
remarks that after the execu-
ton Of Marie Antoinette, very
little lay between the count and
the fulfillment Of his ambition.
"only the poor little lad in the
Temple remained to be hidden
or thrust aside"
DELVES DEEP
Well, those who want to know
what happened need wait no
longer to know at least what
probably did happen. Rafael
sabatini, self appointed histo-
rian of the French revolution,
has decided that something
should be said for THE Lost
King" and so delves deep into
the past in his book Of that
name.
This series, written by Saba
TIM, started long ago with Sea-
ramouche" and continued with
"Scaramouche, the King-Maker"
and Venetian Masque." These,
however, cannot equal THE
Lost King" in excitement. Those
who found fault with Sabatini's
passion for blood and thunder
will find a new respect for him
as a story teller in this stimulat-
ing account Of the Dauphin's
escape, exile and discovery.
LINKS FICTION, FACT
sabatini prefers to believe that
Louis XVII survived the storm
on Lake Leman. He elects Flor
ence La Sale, a protegee of
Jacques Louis David (who be-
queathed his sketch of Marie
Antionettte on the way to the
scaffold to history as the man
who carried the real Dauphin
out of the temple leaving a deaf
and dumb child in his place.
He links fiction and fact so
closely that it is difficult to dis.
cover where the one began and
the other ended.
No one needs a knowledge Of
French history to enjoy "The
Lost King" but those interested
in the Inflated Bourbons will
probably like it best.

Reich Hopes
To Join i. S.
InOCeanMail

Germany is still hopeful of
entering the transatlantic air
mail service.
Karl Orth, director-general Of
posts Of Germany, has arrived
here in washington and imme-
diately sought contact with
Postmaster General Farley. IN
fortunately, Farley was out of
town and the Nazi representa-
tive has been forced to wait for
several days.
AS this is written previous to
the conclave between the two
post office officials. it is the
opinion Of the writer that the
inclusion Of Germany in the
present planned setup to span
the Atlantic for air mail is
doubtful.
BRITAIN, PORTUGAL
AS far as rumorS go, United
States and Great Britain, with
assistance Of the Portuguese
government through it's station
at the Azores, appears to be the
only likely countries involved in
this means of international air
mail lines.
Last fall, the same Herr Orth
made q visit with the expressed
thought of sharing in the Allan.
tic service, but when 1t was
learned that Germany has moth.
ing to offer In the way Of bet
tering the proposed plan, Herr
Orth returned to Germany some
what disappointed.
From all indications, the trans
atlantic air service, which was
first presented to philatelists in
this column early last spring,
appears to be strictly a U. S.
British monopoly. On the north
ern route, the service would
traverse points in Canada, while
the southern route would take
in Bermuda and the Azores.
Imperial Always (Great
BRITAIN has completed test
flights successfully this sum-
mer. Pan-American Always
Omitted StateS) loom as the
lone contender for carrying the
mail for Uncle Sam.
TWO TRIPS WEEKLY
Latest developments along the
transatlantic mail front indi-
cate that the Imperial and the
Pan-American will make two
trips across the Atlantic each
week, which, Post Office Off
Gals believe, will be sufficient
to carry the mail between the
two countries.
In a dispatch from Ottowa,
Canada, it is reported that I'm
perial Anyways plan to follow
the northern route all winter.
This means that Newfoundland
and Ireland will be the stopping
points between New York and
London.
It is expected that a final
announcement concerning the
starting date of transatlantic air
mail service will be made within
the month.
With plans so far ahead, it
is extremely doubtful that Ger.
many can fit into this oceanic
picture.
