chorus of praise.

Technical books there have been in abundance, and many on social and political subjects — some of the latter wise, and some not. Even the poets have contributed to the distinction of the year — with Mr. Masefield, with his "Right Royal,” at their head. The record, which is of course far from complete, is enough to show that the American people are intellectually alive, and that their “talk” is not solely “of bullocks.” There are. as summary shows, good books that new, as there are old ones poor. It surely may be said _ the writers of a time hint mottoes of its gods,” America is wholly to the worship of For Americans are and reading excellent books.
