Well. that is about sample. The
book does describe some of the
business of orchid hunting, but in
the main it just blows off steam.
According to its author, the quest
for the expensive vegetable is less
matter of routine search and
systematized procedure than it is
a spasmodic following of lunches
after starry-eyed gazing into the
tropical sunsets. The young men
were remarkably lucky in this re-
spect too, it should be added. Time
after time they were just about to
give up hope; time after time on a
pure hunch they decided to make
just one last effort in some un-

tiers had reached this pass, they
came upon dazzling, fabulously
rich, virgin field of blossoms-in-

which they were at the moment
searching.

San Froncisco's Literary
Frontier

SssssSs
By Franklin Walker. Ne1U York:
Alfred A. Knopt.
A frontier country splendidly ar
ticulate in print during its pioneer
era may never have happened be-
fore in the history of the world
until California achieved it nearly
a century ago. Just why this par
ticular spot differed from other
newly populated areas, where pio-
neers are likely to work and their
children write about it later, is ex-
planned entertainingly in this book
by professor of English from Mich
igan.
1t is the story of the writing done
in and around the Golden Gate
area from the Gold Rush until 1869
Conveniently the author may end
his book with that exact year, the
year in which the railroad came,
for. with few exceptions, these early
writer's departed soon after access
to the country was made simple.
Mr.. Walkers book is primarily bio
graphical, built on the histories of
eight central figures: a fascinating
crew, Bret Harte, Mark Twain, Prem
tice Milford, Ina Coolbirth, Charles
Warren Stoddard, Joaquin Miller,
Henry George and Ambrose Bierce
Also included are sketches of some
40 minor figures, among them his
torians to humorists.
1t is book that will interest writ
ing folk and Westerners particularly,
relating as it does the story of San
Francisco's dramatic beginnings.
AS the author puts-it: THE exist
ence of the Pacific Ocean assured

ladies' mag editors would have their
little readers think. But the mags
go on, of course, selling in the

and novelists, too, must eat. Mr..
Raphaelson's opus, which is abomin-
ably written, by the way, will prob
ably sell with the same depressing
alacrity.
The report, as said. is not par
ticularly good. But you can at least

American Jazz Music

By Wilder Hobson. Neu York.:
w. w. Norton.
Wilder Hobson makes a studious
attempt to establish and clarity the
value and position Of American Jazz
IN the musical art, and, although
academic circles will probably re-
main unshaken, the authors effort
Is as convincing a treatise as has
yet appeared on behalf Of the gen.
eration-old jazz Muse. Let it first
be understood, however, that Mr..
Hobson takes his stand for the
true "jazz," not its numerous out
groupings, generally termed COM
mercial music.
Jazz. as Mr.. Hobson views it. is
that wholly improvised heated musi-
cal outpouring epitomized by such
as the Original Dixieland Band and
others of today whose members
chief rule is Il play the way I feel
This. he emphasizes at length, must
not be confused with the patterned
"commercial' type which is brewed
purely for market value.
While much Of the musical shop
talk is out of the reach of the
layman, to whom the book is ad-
dressed, there is an adequate &C

ment of jazz. A list of 30 phono-
graph records, with the authors
