Trench Poetry
An anthology of war poetry which
will have considerable historical value
has been compiled by IJeutenant C. K.
Andrews, nf the aviation section of the
reserve signal corps It Is a collection
of verso written by men In the trenches
Naturally the great majority of the
poets represented are Englishmen or
Canadians. The Americans have not
been In the war long enough to develop
their poets. Alan Seeger, however. It
represented, but he fought as a French
man In the Foreign Leg'on There are
also poems by Hupcrt Brooks and
Robert W. Service. The greater part of
tho volume Is filled with the work of
men who have won little fame as poets,
and much of the verse la Interesting
chiefly because of the conditions under
which It was produced
