Weekly Book Review Meeting Bryant , Whitman and Others as They Were

By. WALTER D. HICKMAN G"| ETTING acquainted with King Tut is quite a job. King Tut didn't write poetry or prose, and it is difficult to reach a verdict regarding his character. But William Cullen Bryant, Walt Whitman, Henry David Thoreau, James Russell Lowell, Henry James, William Dean Howells and Harriet Beecher Stowe left more than a tomb; they left to us manuscripts of their thoughts. If thoughts actually be the indi’vidua], then we have a chance to meet them as they actually were. That is the task that William Lyon Phelps, Lampson professor of English literature at Yale, undertakes ■in his new book, “Howells, James, Bryant and Other Essays.” Recently my mail included a copy of this book, which is published by the Macmillan Company, New York. In his introduction Phelps has this to say; “There are still those who profess to believe that all American literature is second-rate; but the influence of some American authors is as wide as the world, and stems not to be diminishing.” The beauty of this Phelps book is that we meet Bryant and the others as they “actually were.” In this way we not only become acquainted with the mental process of these people, but we touch their hands, think and feel with them. Meeting W. C. Bryant Through the knowledge and personality of Phelps, you meet Bryant as follows; “At the age of ten, he (Bryant) wrote verses, and his first book was published in 1808, when he was thirteen. It is no sign of greatness to compose rimes at an early age, as I have the bes.t of reasons to believe. Bryant's boyish verses show 'a correct ear, good technique, and rather remarkable facility. “He took up the study of law. and in 1815 became a practicing attorney. It was during these early years of professional work that he wrote some of his best poetry. On the fifteenth of December. 1815, he took a long walk, and after sunset saw a waterfowl against the fading sky. The sight appealed to his imagination, and he wrote the light stanzas “To a Waterfowl,” which many believe to be his masterpiece. . . “Although Bryant worked in a newspaper office in New York for fifty years, the city made little impression either on his character or his manners.” “The fact that Bryant, in his early years, wrote so much about death, and that his masterpiece, ‘Thanatopsis,’ deals wholly with death both

in its title and in its theme, in itself a sign of gloom or of religious training or of Puritanism.” And so you get very close. I believe, to the real Bryant in this book. “Undo Tom’s Cabin” As I handled Walt Whitman by another author recently, I will turn the pages of Phelps’ book until we reach Harriet Beecher Stowe. You will run across the following in the words of the author; “This novel (“Uncle Tom’s Cabin”) has never known a period of neglect. Shortly before the author's death the publishers got out anew edition of 100,000 copies, which were sold in a few weeks. By, 1878 it had been translated into twenty languages. Sho'rtly after the book first appeared it was dramatized; for seventy years it has held the stage with no sign of diminishing popularity, and it is perhaps the favorte American play. “In the North, Mrs. Stowe was praised for her fairness and impartiality, because she had represented the varying fortunes of Uncle Tom with various masters and localities; in the South she was condemned for exaggeration, slander and falsehood. Here is a book that will appeal to those who are interested in those who have written big things.

Marshall, ex-Vice President, principal speaker, said he regretted the churches haVe turned over to the State the question of charity. ‘‘lf I were permitted one wish,” he said, ‘‘it would be this: God save me from the humiliation of the social service worker who demands your pedigree clear back to Adam before he gives you a couple of quarts of ice cream. “If a man gets down, the Salvation Army knows the first thing to do is get him up.” Maj. William B. Sowers, com-

mander of the Indiana division of the Salvation Army, said 1,765 mothers and children were cared for at the camp Jast summer. GIRLS RECEIVE HONORS Tliree Indianapolis Writers Win Mention in Contest.
