Hathaway, BOOK "LATER POEMS" By Bliss Carman (Toronto: Me Clel- | land & Stewart), 203 Pages. | Price, $2.00. : This is a charming edition of some 'tot the more recent poems of this dis | tinguished author. They comprise | selections from Mr. Carman's three [latest 'books, "The Rough Rider," | "Echoes from Vagabondia" and "April Airs,' 'together with a number | of poems which have not previdusly appeared in book form. At the commencement of the vol- ume is a remarkably fine apprecia- tion, consisting of sixteen additional pages, of the entire works of Blise the contributor of an equally fine ap- preciation appearing recently in the "Canadian Magazine." : "Later Poems' is the product of a mind that is marked by precision and fine powers of observation. Its na- ture scenes are: very realistic, and the descriptions of springtime are ex- ceptionally well done. There is a strong optimistic note sounded throughout, and beautiful ideas are | discovered by a penetrating insight into the apparently commonplace. There is a lovely poem on "Trees" with an ending that should stir the hearts of all Canadians: 'Then lest the soul should not lift her eves From the gift to the giver of Paradise FURS Gourdier's BROCK STREET On the crown of a hill for all to see, | God planted a scarlet maple tree." | A most exquisite tribute to wo- | manhood will be found in "The Giv- | ers dt Life," which is beautifully | phrased, strong and inspiring. "Ees- ter Eve" is an exultant song of hope, | as the following extract will show: I have an instinct as fine and valld, surely as that of the beasts and birds, | Concerning death and tha life immort- | al, to deep for logic, too vague for words No trace of beauty can pasg or perish, but other Yeauty is somewhere orn; No'seed of truth or good be planted, but the yield must grow as the grow- ing corn. | wen, Bliss Carman makes good use of the powers of imagination, a small picture hanging on the wall of his room---a water color--is a doorway to romance and relieves dull care.

Such commonplace titles as "The Old Gray Wall" and "Dust of the Street" afford material which is transformed as if by some fairy land, into beauti- ful verse abouriding in wisdom. "At the Making of Man" is a virile poem of creation, a prophecy of man's untimate mastery over the forces of nature, The world shall be his province, The princedom of his skil : The tides shall wear his harness, The winds obey his will; Till neither flood, nor fire, nor frost, Shall work to do him {il The two or three Christmas poems reach a high level; indeed, it is dif- ficult adequately to do justice to the variety of subjects dealt with. Bliss Carman is one of our greaf- est Canadian poets and is worthy to be classed with poets of the first rank. This fine volume will 30 much to increase his well-merrea POD ity throughout Caneda. It must never be forgotten that Mr. Car- man's boyhood days were spent in New Brunswick, the scenes of which undoubtedly color much of his poetry, For the benefit of those desiring to make a full study of his works, a camplete list is given at the commencement of the volume, The Friendly Arctic. Stefansson says that he has abol- ished the heroics of Arctic explora- tion, His new book The Friendly Arctic is ali the more enthralling as a story for that very reason. Try- ing new theories meant entering de- liberately on one of the most daring ventures in the history of explora- tion, Stefansson is in one person scientist, historian, philosopher and common-sense Iriend of man. By such an observer, with a mind free from fear and worry, the beauties and dangers and wonders of new places are described as by no other 'writer, Although he refuses tu call it se, this was on heroic expedition which carried on from 19183 to 1918. It fought against wiagic odds. It had lost ship, men and equipment. There were climatic. conditions that even Artic men considered severe. So the recital of the mere facts becomes a thrilling story. It carries you on 4 plot of human. interest wherein scientists, whalers, Eskimo and explorers play their dramatfe parts.--The Macmillan Company. January Rod and Gun.

Sitting on two council boards will not.be too much labor for Christy, who has fire enough to be a member of the Dublin Dail Eireann. One of the best mayors Kingston has had was the late W. M. Drennan, for years an undertaker; so King- ston's mayor for 1922 may prove to be just as energetic, Kingston had two splendid sanit- ary inspectors in the late Nicholas Timmerman and William H. Carson, who rendered the citizens the best of service, and it will require a well-in- formed and careful man to fill their shoes.

We shouid see that our own homes are clean first, be- fore butting in to help clean others, Perhaps this year some one will rise up and prove that women do go to heaven and that they are not changed to men angels before they get past Saint Peter at the Golden Gate. You know the opinion still exists, founded upon scripture, that there are no women in heaven. The Lampman will not repeat the two ar- guments, > A certain bookseller is in danger.
