He Remains an Englishman (Continued from page 23) whom Frank Simonds always used to call Charles the Baptist? Roo: velt was not in the least typical of Ameri- can life, at any rate not of American life as we know it in our generation. At best he belonged to a small group of aristo- cratic families in the East whose position was not based on mon On the other hand, pt for his naif enthusiasm over his discovery of the Ten Commandments, he would not have been the least a phe- nomenon in England. England is per- petually producing such men. 6 MERE fact the Roosevelt was Dutch doesn’t in the least alter this state- ment. But what of Curzon of Kedleston’: book? Well, it isn’t much like the or- dinary travel book, for which we heartily thank the Lord. Curzon, of course, has traveled more in Asia than anywhere, and his adventurous days in Afganistan are inating reading. But we were most interested in his chapters on, the great waterfalls of the world, and in his reasons for writing about them. The great water- falls of the world can all be counted, he om the fingers of your two hands, and most of them were not known to white men till comparatively rece ; almost inaccessible, Only three of ‘liei are in North America— Niagara, Yose- mite and the Grand Falls of Labrador, which few white men have ever probably ever will see. One is Zealand, one in India, the rest and South America. Lord Curzon’s count of Victoria Falls in Africa is vivid and thrilling, but he makes us most want to see the highest and loveliest waterfall in the world, in South America, which he himself has never beheld, which leaps 32 I don’t think I'll need any. from the top of an 8,000 foot mountain rising solitary out of the vast jungle of British Gui which is visible from miles and miles away, hanging like a great white curtain over the naked) precipices far above the tropic wilderness. Some happy day we shall go tnere! But almost as fascinating as his account of the great waterfalls, is his chapter on singing sands, including an analysis of the explanations of why they sit patiently collected, from all parts of the world, ords of singing sands, and found that the number of them far exceeds what anybody supposed. That so many of these sands are in America, he attributes to the fact that we Americans have hunted for them much more busily than other peoples. When we ourself were a small boy, we used to go down to a little crescent beach at Manchester, M. and drag a stick over the sands to hear them sing. Every boy who has been brought up along the shore of Lake Michigan has done the same thing, and perhaps even taken some of the sand home in a bottle, let it dry, and then placed it in a stocking and heard it sing again. When a man who can be sroy of India and member of his majesty’s cabinet, can find time to investigate singing sands and write a chapter about them which will keep us up till two a. M. we take off our hat. It’s a great institution, the British haristocracy. ARE YOU SELF- CONSCIOUS?
