It takes good poets, though perhaps humorless ones, to write good bad verse. This being clear, let us turn to the purpose of the present study which is tc remark that in the pro- duction of bad verse Canadian writers need take s. back seat to no one. Canadian poetry contains a rich vein of badnese, and it is an odd circumstance that no lover of the egregious in verse has yet tap- ped it deeply. What follows is (to the best of our belief) a pioneer ef- fort in the field, though not the first. Here is Charlies Sangster in s bad moment from ‘The Plains of Abraham": The well-attended Wolfe Emerging from the gulf 0f the battle’: fiery furnace, like the swelling of e psalm.

Chajned Libraries (Montreal Colette) Ever since there have been books,‘ there have been book thieves. And in medieval times, when books wem m» and valuable, libraries took no chances with would-be "borrowers," but chained their volumes end manuscripts securely to their shelves. Several of these "chained librar- ies" stili exist in England, but among them the one at Hereford Cathedral, which hes just been re- opened after a thorough restor- stion, is unique in several ways. Definitely one of the oldest-it is still s moot point whether it dates from i394 or 1590—and with its nearly 1,500 tethered volumes by far the largest of the chained lib- raries, it is, ncw that the pains- taking restoration hat been corn- pleted, a. sight that no American bcokiover who visits England should miss. - One of the largest of the other chained libraries in England is, as it happens, also at Hereford, in the Church of All Saints there. It has 313 chained books. But in Hereford Cathedral, even before the restoration of the chained lib- rary, upward cf 450 books never had been unchalned, and more than 1,000 chains which had been taken off books in the last century were suspended from the ceiling in rows. Moreover, by a. piece of great good fortune, the brass clips by which the chains had been fasten- ed to the books had been thrown into en old box and so preserved. Consequently, it has been possible to rechain all the books in the lib- rsry almost precisely as they were originally- The most dramatic find, and al- so one of the earliest, was the complete set of readers’ seats which had once stood between the Eros-t bookcases. These back-to- baek seats had been taken apart end converted into a row of pews, which had long formed e. substan- tial part of the seating accommo- dation in the traneepte. A cupboard in the vestry, used for hanging sur- plices, was found to be made from a dismantled bookcase. In recheiriing the rule was rigidly adhered to that no book, however old and valuable, should be chain- ed unless it bore on its cover the scars of its original chaining, or, supposing the volume had been re- bound, unless ft was entered, in the original handwriting, in a cats- logue of the library made in 1749.
