"The Hattle at the'N'atloua." written
primarily by Frederic. Arnold Ku'mmer
as a" young folk's history of Uhe "great
war. will undoubtedly Jiave a much
wider audience than the. boys and girls
to wbom it Is designed to appeal". Mr.
Hummer, hitherto known as a novelist,
was led to eoinposltlon.of this narrative
of the orld conflict in order to answer
intelligently the constant questions of
his own children on questions of
politics, diplomacy and especially
sttategy and action, as the war drama
unrolled its scenes. Hence the result
has been well tented before submission
to the general render.
Since the book is not "nrjtten down,"
and since, too. it is not Involved or
technical, it will furnish a 'yery in
forming and interesting manual of the
four j ears of Armnrcdudn for those

CHESTERTON'S
' AMERICAN HISTORY
The Story of Our, Political De
velopment Written for
English, Readers .
J -v ,
Although Cecil Chesterton's "A Ills
tory of the United States" Was written
for English readers Jn prder to .explain
to them what this nation has done and
to strengthen the bond of sympathy be
tween the. two peoples, it can be read
with profit by Americans.
Mr. Chesterton aekhowledgesiis In
debtedness to the"histories written by
Preside Wilson and by .Tames Ford
Ithodea, whom he incorrectly calls Pro
fessor nhodfjs, bub he tells us that he J
read widely in the original documents
before writing. He disagrees with
many, 'of the. conclusions of Mr. Ithodes,
but he has "evidently been largely 'in
fluenced by the point, of view of Mr.
Wilson.
. The book is really a political-history
i and a 'discussion of the principles and
iii.. .lutr ZiS.
.i-'ri"'"'""' UBVcuBiu ruuUi.
The author' finds 'that' Andrew Jackson
was one of our greatest leaders,, for the
reason that at a time when Congress
was dong its utmost to mngnify its
powers' be asserted the power of the
presidency. "In my view," be says in
the 'preface, '!the victory of ..laekson
over the'vWhigs wbb the turninrioint
of American history and decided that
the United States should be A democracy
and not'a parliamentary Oligarchy."
His- opinion of Charles Sumner, one
of the idols of America, agrees with
that expressed by 'Henry Adams.' He
calls' Sumner a "highbrow" and ex
plains that the phrase corresponds some
whatto the French word'"intellectual,"
"but with an adde'd touch of priggish
ness which exactly suits Sumner. It
does not, of course, "imply that a man
can think." he eoes on. "Sumner was
conspicuous even among politicians for
his inaptitude in this, respect." Thus
'arc the idols' broken. But 'it-is "pretty
'generally admitted now that Sumner
as a'grcatly overrated man.
Gilbert K. (Jhesterton contributes an
'introduction to bis brother's book, which
takes the form of nn appreciative es
timate of hls'cbara'cter and attainments

pubtic where he is less known tlttn the

SOME NEW STORIES

Marshall will doubtless turn first to the
three 'tales dealing with the familv of . P' oi Action : An fcssay on American
the Clintons, with the history of which I Idealism," adds his name to Montes
they arV already familiar. The first iquieu and Jusserand among Frenchmen
of them is "Kencote," which tells how
the grandfather of the squire came into
the possession of theTfamiI.v estates. tea and Americans v,ho is able to main
Thi rramtfethnr r-nnnrer .on whose i,oin an impartial critical attitude. He
elder brother, a bachelor, is n spend
thrift, nnd a friend of the Trincc of
Wales, the one known as the first gen
tleman in Kuropc, and of Ilcau Itrum
rnell. The prinye has expressed a desire
to visit his friend in the country. The
csfttte is run down. Its owner asks
hisw brother to advance the money for
its repair and when his request is re
fused he raises money by selling all its
furnishings. The story dcaisjith the
successful efforts of ihc younger Vrother
to preserve the property which he will
inherit on his brother's death. As It
turns out he getp it rtght away. The
story ot how it all happened is nn et
citing and adventurous narrative after
the manner of Jeffrey Far'nol.'ond quite
out of Marshall's usual style. "The
Little Squire." deals "with the childhood I
otthe man who has figured in the scries client corrective, of the spirit of dis
of Clinton novels and "The Squire, nnd KUgt or disdain for,. America which Is
tne war, ' is a study in the attitude
of mind of a patriotic Englishman
toward various phasei of life as affected
by the.wat. The oTe all good, work
manlike 'tales, but Mr. Marshall's
method is better suited to the long not el.
He iises that method well in "Rich
ard Italdock," his first success, which
has only recently been made accessible
to American readets. It was published
originally in 1000. It is so well done
that it would make a reputation' foi
any n6velist. The story is an account
of the life and adventures of Richard,
the son ot a narrow -miuded country
clergyman
The adventures nre chiefly
those of the mind. There arc few men
now writing who can make such nd-
Lvehturcs more entertaining. His char- '
peters grow nnd their point ot iew
changes with the ears just as sue h
things happen in real life. The ex-
tCrnals of the stor nre of much less
consequence than the processes of the
mind of the persons who move through
it. nut the" story itself is interesting,
for Mr. Marshall understands that a
novel" first of all must tell a story.
Those interested in the career of
tills novelist wilfbc grateful to Profes
sor William Lyon Phelps, of Ynlc, for
plotting into a book, with some additions,
the lecture which. he delivered at Chi
cago, University ahout a year ago. Tt
is full of biographical detail and of
frietrdlv npvfrctiatlve-'.criticism which
will help the Tender who cares for
such things, to plate the man wheic he
belongs in the histor.i of Knglish litera

THE CRITIC TALKS .
TO MUSIC LOVERS
Weekly Comment on Things
Musical in Discriminating
Philadelphia
THE important place that Philadel
phia is taking as a center of music
throughout the country is shown In
many ways, but in none more signifi
cantly than in the fact that some of
the largest and most influential na
tional music organizations have
planned to hold their national con
ventions in this city next fall and win
ter. Among these are the Music Teach
ers' National Association, which will
convene here early in .December, npd
the National Association of Music
Supervisors, which will meet shortly
after the beginning of the Jiew jcar.
Several other smaller organizations
will also meet in Philadelphia and the
coming season is already hailed as the
most promising that the city has ever
known.
' In tlew of this, it is important tha't
some steps be taken early in the fall
to show the visitors, many ot wuom
will be in this city for the first time
in their lives, that Philadelphia is nil I
of what it claims to be musically. The
Philadelphia Music Teachers' Asso
ciation, has set a good example' by
postponing its annual bapquet, usuall
held in June, until the fall and it will
probably be held during the meeting
of the national body. Other musical
organisations should lose no time in
formulating plans fqr the proper re
ception of the ninny distinguished
musicians who will attend these meet
ings. Not only is this important for the
good name of the hdspitality of Phila
delphia, but it is also important from
a more materialistic standpoint. It is
important, for instance, for our many
excellent music schools to show the
visitors that tbcj "have the goods" if
Philadelphia is to compete seriously
with Uoston and New York as a center
of musical education.
A BODY of musicians and music-
lovers iutcrcstcd in the work of
American composers and apparently de
spairing of getting their works in the
larger forms published bv the regular
music nublisheis has recently formed an
oiganlzation, with headquarters in New
York, but which will oe matic nntionai
in scope. A stiong Philadelphia branch
is among the possibilities of the near
future.
The object of the society is the pub-,
lication of American music in the larger'
,forms in short, a society for American
Vomposers. The name is the Society for
the Publication of American Mumc, nnd
it is supported and indorsed by most
of the prominent New York musicians
of American birth ns well as those of
foreign birth who have been living lonjr
in the Tnited States or who intend to
make this country their permanent
borne. ,
'The objects of the association nre set
forth plainly, and so are the things
that it does not intend to do. There
is to be no attempt to "coddle" the
American composer who needs publica
tion as a stimulant to composition, for
the society believes (with much truth)
that the man who censes composition
because he cannot get bis works pub
lished or performed "has not the proper
stuff in him as n composer."" Nor is
it the object of the organization to
publish music just because it is Ameri
can.. ll mllRt undergo rigid tests ami
disclose a high order of musical excel
lence. Only three oi foni composi
tions a ear in the lnrgcr forms will
be brought out, so there is no intention
to flood the market with mediocre music.
Philadelphia has, or should have, a
ke'en interest in this plan. As Mr. Sto
kowski said a few years ogo, in ad
dressing the Manuscript Music Society,
Philadelphia has a group of composers
which will compare very favorably with
the Boston group, or those of any other
American music tenter. To these the
new society may offer a "wav out" or
lather a way in to the publication of
their works.
TUB idea is b no mentis a new one;
in fact, its originators ore simnlv
following the path blazed by the So
ciety of British Composers, which has
now had a successful existence for some
jears. The Nco-Kusslnns -had IJalatcff,
a wealthy lumber merchant, who
founded the edition which bears bis
name and furnished the money so tfint
the works of the jounger Itussinn com
posers could be put on the market at a
price within the reach of all.
And, after all, this matter of price
is cry Important, and the new Ameri
can society would do well to give it due
consideration. For example, there are
hundreds of amateur string quartets all
over the country, whose members would
buy new works at n moderate price,
but as matters now stand a quartet costs
from $4,50 to ?0 or even higher, and
this is too much td paj for a composi--tion
which will only be used oc
casionally. Grieg saw this phase of the inubic
business, and all his compositions were'
issued by editions carrjing music W.
"popular'' prices, nrabms, on the'
other hand, kept his" works In the
higher-priced editions. Before the war
it was possible to buy -the Grieg string
quartet for $1.25 cash, while any one
of the three quartets of Brahms cost
$3.75. Perhaps the difference in the
wo"rks from The standpoint of permanent
' . , ,. ., ., ..
j lnuBic maoe it worm tne u)neience in
cost, but the amateur quartet players
did not think so. 'I he result was that
they all had the. Grieg and very, very
few of them owned the Brahms works.
And it Is the amateur who does most
of the buying.
The new societ) plaus to give a copy"
of each chamber music number issued
during the year to each member, but
if the price be mdde so low as just
to cover the cost ot issuing the works,
the society should tome pretty near
paying its way from the start. If de
sired, the works could be sold to'mem
bera at les than cost and to nonmem
bers at tost, apu thus some slight ine
couio from .tije publications would be
assured,
