slain, they know not well the subtle
ways I keep and pass and turn
again"
That is all very well. But the
poet. Rice, has his own songs to
sing, and his own things to say, and
here Is one thing he has said in
his new little book that never
seemed truer than now:
"'The man Uho can smile has come

South's Rhymer Stirred
TO GulIunt Verse
BY JOHN LARDNER,

special correspondent Oh Inc Guar.
NEW YORK, April 17.-Spring is
here, and with it comes the poet
Rice, bearing verse. I mean the
poet Henry Grantland Rice, the
sweet singer of Tennessee, author
of a new book of poems called only
the Brave"
This Is the first book this minstrel
has produced in Is years, but dur
ing that time few days have passed
whose low, descending sun found the
poet Rice absent from his Tyre. His
path is strewn with couplets,
quatrains, sonnets and ballads. He
is an old-fashioned bard, thinking
and breathing in rhyme. No mar
row-shouldered volume can span the
complete works, the combined out
pourings, the total minstrelsy of the
poet Rice.
If you happen to say: Il like
Snooks in the fifth at Keeneland,"
the poet Rice automatically will re-
ply. Where did you get that tip?
From Greenland" It's the way his
mind works,

Some Minds Thot Think
ONLY in Poetry

my ." y
A conversation between a couple
of undefeated and united quoters
like the poet Rice and the poet
Kieran is apt to run as follows:
Kieran -" sleep sweetly, tender
heart, in peace. Sleep, holy spirit,
blessed soul"
Rice-"While the stars burn, the
moons increase, and the great ages
onward roll"
Roosevelt-"Be that as it may,
Rice did not great Julius bleed for
justice sake? What villain touched
his body that did stab, and not for
justice? What, shall one of us"
Rice-"That slew the foremost
man of all the world but for sup
porting robbers, shall we now con-
taminate our fingers with base
bribes and sell the mighty space of
our large honors for so much trash
as may be grasped thus? I'd rather
be a dog and bay the moon than
such a Roman. And another thing,
Kieran, there is pleasure in the
pathless woods; there Is rapture on
the lonely shore"

Tell Cords ABORT .

You say: Il missed that play. Did
you see what Joe did?"
Mr.. Rice replies: Il think he
famed with the bases loaded"
Or you say: This looks the spot
for a quarterback sneak"
Mr.. Rice replies: Il doubt it; they
pulled that play last week"
Or you say: This time, partner,
I bid one heart
And the poet Rice replies: "Are
you sure you can tell them cards
.Asart?"
These, of course, are mundane
matters-but it's the way of a man
with a song in his heart that he
turns the dusty trappings of his
world to song. And when the poet
Rice gets to matching measures and
memories with somebody like the
poet Col Theodore Roosevelt, or the
poet John Kieran, over beaker full
of the warm South, the whole vast
symphony of the worlds great verse
is yours for the hearing, unless you
remember to duck.
