BOOKs/ART/

The article from Coronet on book titles discussed in last week's column brought to my mind various titles that have ever held a fascin- ation for me. Amongst these books-strife of which I have read;

IIHBILY are still unread~arc Swift's "The Battle of the Books", Datoe “The Apparition of Mls. Veal", ,-Stcrne':< “Tristram Shandy", "The l Castle of Otraiito" by Horace Wal- pole, "Hciose and Abelard". Sir iWalter Scott's “Thomas the Rhy- ‘mef’, Washington Irving's "Sal- ‘magundyﬁ “Oroonoko' by Apiira Benn, Sheridan's "School ‘For Scandal", Emily Brontes Wuther- jing Heights’, Hardy's "Jude the r0bscure". George Meieditirs “The lShaving of Shagpath" and Diana of the Cromwnyr‘, Shaw's "The Apple Cart". And of the strictly modern or iathcr recent-"The Street of the Fishing Cat" by Jolan Folde‘, “Laiver _ at Large" by Fbuucls Yeats-Brown. and "Divide the Desolation" by KuLhryn Jean Maclbarlane.

Of the last three named “Divide the De... . on" ... tlic only one I have yet rcud.

It is a novelizcd version of tiic

.life of Emily Bronte whose lonel

and rugged mustcipece "Wuthcriiig

people with whcin she apparently never came in contact; and with remarkable astutencss she deals

At any rate as an imaginative portrait of Emily Bronte "Divide the Desolation" will hold a vcry hiuh place in tlic minds of all in- tcrcsted‘ in the brilliant Bronte family.

I have ju"t noticed in the Times that the list of eight now plays which opened in London the first week in February. includes "Wuthering Heights."

Two exhibitions-one of old time. the other of modern hooked rugs are open this month in New York. An article about the e two ex- hibitions says that tlic technique of making hooked rugs did not origin- ate in America. It was known in early days in England" Sffifldifh avia. and oven in ancient Egypt.

To-day the hooked rug handi- craft has been revived-"not only as a means of reproducing old cx- amples but as a scrlous medium of artistic eXprc-SSIOH."

The article goes on to point out some cf the difference , particul- ariy in de ign in the rugs of yes- terday and those of to-day. and to give description; of Qevem],

At the modern exhibition one VBTY Pretty rug. which is illustrat- ed. has a design of a doe and two fewns against a background of simply suggested forest foliage. It makes a very lovely pattern and is perfectly in keeping with the nia- terial. The rm; was designed by Ernest Plane.

One of muitl-colours on l. grey Bround. with exotic foliage, cuck- atoos etc. is named "The Junizle". Cactus with its green leavgs mid bright red blossoms is the source of "MW-her desizn: and old time motifs handled in the modern "mm" mﬂy be been in the "Pear and_ “Grape? lug "by ya 1,” Kuniyoshi.

"Northland Songs". recently pub- lished In Toronto by Gordon V. Thompson contains songs of French Canada. England, Ireland. and also songs. brought w Canada by immi- grants. 0f which the original words were German Norwegian. Icelandic, Italian. Gaelic and Welsh.

Dorothy Dix ‘a Letter Box

marry me man xou mve 1r ne 113.8 Uecem l Qualifications -— Spite Marriages Never Brought" Happiness to Any Man or Woman

Dear Dorothy Dix-I am in love with a. young man, but there is i mystery surrounding his mother's death which greatly involves his father: Everybody says he has his father's blood in him and it will inevitably show up some time. He is with his father at prescm and, who I am cure, is inﬂulncixig him the wrong way. ‘rho question in my mind is: Shall I mam this man just because the stars Crash around my head and lomewhere a trumpet sounds when 11¢ kisses me. or shall I marry another man Whogp kisses fairly make me gag and grin and bear g1; unhappy married life? Undoubtedly I will marry one or the other, so which would you advise?

P. Q. R.

Anlwer:

I don't think that I would be particularly m. thraled with the idea of having for a husband and tho father of my children a man whose father “as suspected of murder. Wife-killing is one 0g m, things that is simply not done in our best families and it seems to me that the least that any woman can do for the Clllldrcn that she brings into the world is to give them as good an inheritancl; 5,», she possibly can and a decent background.

Of course, the father may be innocent of the crime of which he is ac. cused in the minds of the people who know him. That happens no, m. frequently. Certainly the young man's hands are clean of his mother's blood and just because his father has algzagged oﬂ’ of the strait and 115,1‘. row road may make hlin keep all the more in the middle of it. Also, you may love him so much that you will want. to stand by him and fight his battle with prejudice, shoulder to shoulder.
