b,$i,.rlneN Mansfield's short storlee
re delightful studies e episodes or In-
a
cldents revealing an Insight Inte human
motives. The story which alves the
tltle te "The Garden Party" (Alfred
A. Knopf), her second volume, deals
with the effect of the death of a laborer
en a young girl whose mother Is giv
ing a garden party when the man
was killed. The social pleasures of the
rich nre brought into sharp contrast
with the tragedy of the peer who live
at the very gate of their country es
tate. "The Stranger" and "The Bank
Holiday" are similar sketches of ether
phases of life, sketches slight, it U
true, but written wjth an insight into
the heart of things that Is uncommon.
If this author could carry her method
successfully through a full-length novel
she would produce something very much
worth while. But this Is net te imply
that her short Medes arc negligible.

A PAGE FROM LIFE
Stacy Aumenier's "Heartbeat"
Is Melodramatically Real te
Life Without Retouching
A page from human life stark, un
embclllsbcd and melodramatic In its
truthfulness Is Stacy Aumeuler's
"Heartbeat" (Bent & Livcrlght), a
novel whose only flaw Is Us title.
Jlr. Aumenler, a young rngllsh
writer, whoe work deserves nn even
wider acquaintance this hide of thp pond
than hns been accorded "The Querrlls,"
"One After Anether" and ".lust Out Out
Mde," believes that life ltself Is suf
ficiently realistic net te need any ar
tistic retouching te inake for dramatic
Intensity.
"Heartbeat" It the life story of the
leve child of a British stntesmnn and
a dance-hall singer. The girl lenrns
of the bar sinister only en the death
of her father. She gec? en the stage,
marries her manager despite lack of
love and then finds happiness and trag
edy with a younger man. There Is a
touch of thf earnestness of Eugene
Walter's "Easiest War" In the final
scene that finds the girl dntnlng socks
for the man whose mistress she Is.
Prudes probably will demur nt the
ending that falls te bring out the glamour
of wedding bells and reformation, but
Mr. Aumenler sketches bis steps In the
girl's life se humanly nnd logically that
the reader will put the book down with
a sigh and admit sorrewfullv that "such
things are na they arc." There Is net
a nit et manklsn Rentlmentnlity in
the book except the title. Ner Is there
an effort te Mieck. Every .scene and
eery character create naturalness.
Regardless of the lessen's conclusion,
"Heartbeat" Is worthy of attention.
POETRY CONSIDERED
FROM A NEW ANGLE
A TRAGEDY IN BLACK
"Birthright," by T. S. Stribling,
Takes Up Problem of Edu
cated Negro
T. S. Stribling hns endeavored te
outline, if net solve, a vexatious prob
lem that of the relation of the edu
cated Negro te his less fortunate breth
ren. "Birthright" (Century Company)
makes little or no attempt te present1 a
maudlin plea for the dark-skinned
strlver for better things. It ects forth
his faults, his frailties, the handicaps
he must attempt te surmount. And al
though the climax would seem te be a
futile gesture of "What's the Ubc?" the
story pavca a way for the thinking
reader te supply many possible potential
answers.
Fer his central chnrartcr Mr. Strib
ling has taken n 5 0ung Negro, a Har
vard greduntc, who gees buck te his
Mississippi River town Intent en carry
ing n practical message of cheer te
ethers of his race. The vlvi.l. inclslve
pictures of his return te "Niggcrtewn,
of his reception In spirit of nwe by for
mer chums and companions nnd of tol
erant, sneering dubiousness by the
whites make up most of the btrikina
parts of the book.
The young Harvard man Boen finds
hlm&elf enmeshed in problems far be
yond his strength. The natural lassi
tude of the Negro rncp, the t-pirlt of
petty thievery and worse, the persistent
refusal of the whites te give aid, all
these combine te grind his dream plans
Inte dust. Se. flnnlly unable te make
his fellows knew the menage he has for
tbem or te Impress upon the southern
whites the need of sucli a message one
of work nnd advance for the betterment
of both he gives up In disgust and
seeks ether and possibly mere productive
fields for him perfennlly.
The character drawing of the various
Negro tjpes lb done with a fertility that
la marked. The geed-natured tolerance
of conditions by n rnce tee inert te help
Itself is stressed in deeply touching
lines.

THE MOVIE FAN'S LETTERBOX
By HENRY M. NEELY
It would seem thnt in view of the
v.-ut volume of weiks written regarding
the art, meaning nnd technique of po
etry fiem at least the das of Herace's
"Ars 1'eetlca" te Amy Lewell's latest
volume en imaglsm nnd ethpr ver.se
medernities, the subject had been pretty
thoroughly threshed out bv the ilall.s of
criticism. But F. ('. I'rcsceit, pro
fessor of English at Cernell Unhei'sit.-.
has found n new angle of the trltliul
lens through which te view peitiy.
"The Poetic Mind" (Mncmillnu Com
pany) uses the resources of Freudian
research In this original and rtimulatli;
analysis of the inspiration and metho
dology of poetry. I)r. Prsceit considers
both spirit and subMnncc fiem stand
points that hnw become uallnblc,
though -whether tenable or net there
will be some discussion, with the ad
Minces of modern p-.jcholegy.
It is pointed out thnt the book clear
ly defines poetrv as a pieducl of anso anse anso
natienal thinking as opposed te ra
tional thinking.
Poetry, In one view, like genius, is
"te madness near allied." This vie'..
has been donated and disputed as wc'l
as maintained, and it Is still n meet
matter whether the poet Is genuinely n
sound, snne person or n mental kins
man of the ilienmer and the madman.
Of course, the old view Is (hat poetry l-
the result of inspiration, llke unte'th"
m stic revolutions of religion. Profes Profes
eor Prescott endeavors, with much
novel material, nnd out of wide and
wise nulling. cr.refiilH compacted lni'
hi-, argument, te deliue In positive
terms the relation of literary com
position te dicamn, leverles nnd sub sub sub
coiiscleui s'atps. lie doe.- net mind
countering en oitheIoy, but as he In
dicates manv of the principle en which
he founds his thesm nnd defends it arc
old. lie has "tried te return te anil
develop classical views of poetry which
aie new somewhat out of vogue. In ti.e
main, old principles nt most lccelvc new
interpretations and relation?." Mun.v
of his chapters are devoted te various
phaes of Imagination in poetry. II'
also cllscu-i-cs symbols nnd figures, the
impulre and contiel of peetiy, poetic
madness and catharsis, desires and emo
tions in poetry nnd the universality nnd
use-, of pectij.

FOR THOSE JUST BEGINNING
Out of th'e picturesqueness of me
dieval times with their covering of re re
licieus fanaticism Mary .lohnsfen ha-
drawn her Inte.-t novel. "Silver Cress" ,
(Little, Brown &. Ce.) Although it lacks
the engrossing, swanking lemunee of
"Te Hnve and te Held."- "SIlvcil
Ciess" bv Its interesting novelty of j
plot, Its background of mysticism mid
its ease of style, doperres te be Riven
a place away from the ordinary run of
present-dny stories.
"Silver Cress" Is an English mon
astery in the time of Henry VII, n day
when abbot and prier ruled with as
strong n mntcrlnl grnsp as did th
strongest feudal lord. Discovery of the
bones of a long-dead saint nnd subse
quent miracles have brought fame and
prosperity te a rival monastery nnd
about the feud the story swings.
Te offset the glerv of the ether
monks the Abbet of Silver C.e-'s tie- i
cldes te resort te subteifugp and nt
temptn te "mnke. a saint" of one of
his monks by suggestion. When the
eung religious fnlla te icnct te austere
pennnces and continued meditation ih" i
superior gees farther and "arrange
visions" for him using n 'light of love'
et the town te pose as The Virgin en
account of her losemhlniico te tan
model of the .Mether In the church. The
veung monk discovers the deception nnd
baiely escapes with his life. In In-
wanderings of course he mecu the I
pseudo "vision," also llccing te Mjfetv. '
A spiritual romance lesults and the
aie allowed te sick their mntnlal and
spiritual pence together.
"Silver Ciess" is unusual. It Is well
told. It is engrossing. Little mere
could be asked of any author.
