Wards of St. Francis

ANIMAL SPIRITS, edited
by Whit Burnett Hippincott:
1885, is an anthology of short
prose. poetry and cartoons
about domestic pets and some
wilder proteges Of humans.
For the dog lover-which
includes most Of us-there are
some excellent pieces, includ-
ing Robert Angeles Living
With a Dog" and reflections
by Robert Benchley and Ogden
Nasn. For those of us who
consider the cat the noblest of
domestic but untamed crea-
lures there is Feathers" a
touching tribute by Carl Van
Vechten. and more prose,
verses and cartoons.
Then there are pieces about
birds, simians, even snakes.
Yes, there are those who can
become attached to snakes. 1t
takes all kinds.
This perceptive anthology
should make you more SYM
pathetic to all st. Francis
wards. regardless of how you
might feel about sharing your
hearth with some of them.

DESTINY AND GLORY. BY
Edward S. Wallace. Cow
ard-McCann, Inc: ST.
Members of the Manifest
Destiny Club looked upon the
fllibusterers of the 1840s and
lS50s. who stormed into the
Caribbean countries with lar
ceny in their hearts, as self
less patriots carrying happi-
ness and love to the heather.
Being somewhat more civilized.
and having the advantage of
historical perspective. we know
today that these bands of arm
ed buns were only a cut above
bandits.
Nevertheless. their story Is
a tale full of pathos. high ex-
element. humor and. If not
bravery, then bravado. The
leading characters are a for
gotten trio-NarciSo Lopez,
Pierre Soule and william Wal
ker-and the settings are Yu-
catan, Mexico. Nicaragua and
Cuba. The authors crisp
style embellishes what already
was a fascinating story.

The Phillips Gallery, which
so recently showed jewel-like
early paintings by Corot. hung
simultaneously two OF h er
shows. about as far removed
in character from the Corots
as one can imagine. Paintings
and colleges by Kurt Schwit-
tiers and paintings by three
abstract expressionists remain
through February 25.
The Schwitters collection Of
more than 80 works is the
major one. displayed in gall
lery A and the adjoining
hall, on the second floor.
1t is a loan show. from

scum of Modern Art. private

Is a printed catalogue with a
long appreciative and intel
lectual interpretatio on Of
Schwitters. as well as some
biographical data by c. Gle
dion-Welcker. which should be
required reading by the lay
visitor before he looks at the
pictures. Otherwise. he may
regard them as rubbish. (Of
course he may still regard
them so. after reading it. and
he will have some justiflca-
tion.)

tiers made his colleges "out

vertising and other odds and
ends that Schwitters recovered
from his scrap basket he
transformed into art" out Of
a mere nothing. something was
created that has wit, beauty
of composition and artistic
power of expression"
1t is perfectly true that II
the spectator stands far
enough away from these pic
lures, he will see ingenious de-
signs. tonal and color con-
trasts. etc. But in a closeup
view the average person will
probably be preoccupied Gas l

of soiled fabrics, manufacture
ers' names on torn bits. rusty
nails. broken hinges, etc. 1t
reminds me of a remark made
years ago about the gorgeous
display Of lights on Broadway:
that these in their variety and
extent would be pure magic to
an illiterate visitor.

Illinois for the balm and rice
Of Louisiana. BY Work, toll and
page 200, they have done pref
ty we'll. However. Brent wants
to breed a better kind of rice
and Mary is vaguely dissatis-
fed about something. The Blue
Camilla becomes the symbol Of
the eventual contentment and
dissatisfaction they want

book is devoted to their
daughter Lavinia. who expert
ences tragedy in romance, but
in spite of suffering, keeps
looking for the good life.
AS for authenticity, we are
assured Of that by the Ques-

Another newcomer at dame
court is Yektai. whose bill for
paints must be enormous. He
appears to create his works by
simply squeezing the pigment
from the tube in long stripes,
or mounds. which gives his
pictures a bas-relief look. He
paints still life. flowers and
other subjects in this way. but
for my taste. the pigment is
too assertive. 1t is hard to
see the pictures for the paint.
