But clear, clear! (Think of clarity in a Russian writing partly on metaphysical themes!) Shestov is dogmatic, sometimes scornful, often destructive and always without an axe to grind—he attempts to prove nothing. In- deed, the original title of the book was The Apotheosis of Groundlessness. D. H. Law- rence’s introduction could be spared The Vanity Girl (Harper), by Mackenzie. Sylvia Scarlett reappears in this novel, but the heroine is a* London chorus girl who captures a title and then out-patricians the patr Clever, some times a little smarty; interesting, through out.

Amusi: lines; but the authors, unable to work out their situation, take refuge in farce, and the reader takes refuge in pinochle. Night and Day (Doran), by Virginia Woolf. Unlike The Voyage Out, this novel was intelligible to us, We should call it a protracted study of the intellectualized emo- tions of five externally uninteresting Eng- lish people. Outwardly, nothing whatever happens; nor is there any of the inner melo drama which makes Henry James so excit- ing to those who master his style. The hook is only for those who will enjoy the author's very fine art, caring nothing for the material upon which it is expended. Sunbeams, Inc, (Doubleday, Page), by Julian Street. Satire on modern advertis- ing and self-advertising methods; not very interesiing unless an action at law should enable us to identify Mr. Sweet's “ Belwyn Brown.” The Elfin Artist (Stokes), by Alfred Noyes. Mr. Noyes loves the English coun- tryside and hates radicals, jazz and the shimmy, Who shares his tastes and opin ions will like his verse—we would scarcely call it Poetry, except the “ Four Songs, After Verlaine.” Grant M, Overton. A Fitting Memorial HE Corporation of Harvard College is concerned in the issue of the Memoirs of the Harvard Dead in the War Against Germany, and Mr. W. A. De Wolfe Howe, who is writing them, is the Corporation's appointee. There are to be four volumes, with notices of three hundred and sixty men. The first volume, The Vanguard, is out, and contains likenesses and biographies of sixty men who died in the war before the United States got into it. The book, published by the Harvard University Press, is a hand- some and dignified piece of book-making, a model of what such a memorial should be. 977 «x DIAMONDS ===- From JASON WEILER & SONS, Boston, Mass, | One of America’s leading diamond importers and save 20 to 40 per cent. on regular retail prices For over 44 years the house of Jason Weiler & Sons of Boston has been one of the leading diamond import- ing concerns in America UAini® 1 Carat, $145.00 This ene carat amend is of Gas brilkancy and perte ctly cut.
