"I want to see Mrs- Gardner, please. It is in connec- tion with the death of her brother, Captain Trevelyan, at Exhampton. He purposely did not hand his of- flcial card to the maid. The mere fact of his being a_ police officer.

She had an unusual looking face, broad about the brow, and black hair with a iouchof gray at the temlllei.

CHAPTER 8 "You have come from Mr. Kirk- wood. the lawyer, at Exhampton?” “Not exactly, Mrs. Gardner, “In- spector Narracott replied. “I put it that way to your maid. Your bro- ther. Captain Trevelyan, was inur- dered yesterday afternoon and I am Divisional Inspector Narracott in charge of the case." Whatever else Mrs. Gardner might be she was certainly a woman of iron nerve. Her eyes narrowed and she drew in her breath sharply, then inotioning the inspector .'o a chair and sitting down herself, she said: - "Murdered! How cxtraordinaryl Who in the world would want to murder Joe?" "That is what I'm anxious to ‘ind out, Mrs. Gardner." "Oi course, I hope I shall be able to help you in some way, but I rloubt it. My brother and I have seen iery little of each other in the last ten years, I know nothing of his friends or of any ties he has formed." “You'll excuse me, Mrs. Gardner, but had you and your brother quar- reled?" “No-not, quarreled. I think cs- tranged would be a better word to describe the position between us. I dc-rrt want to go into damily details. but my brother rather resented my marriage. Brothers, I think, seldom approve of their sisters’ choice, but usually I fancy, they conceal it bet- ter than my brother did. My broth- er, as perhaps you know, had a large fortune left him by an aunt. Both my sister and myself married poor men. When my husband was inval- ided out of the army after the war with shell shock, a little financial assistance would have been a won- derful relief -- would have enabled me to give him an expensive course of treatment which ups otheiwise denied to him. I asked my brother for a loan which he refused. That, of course, he was perfectly entitled to do. But since then we have met at very rare intervals, and hardly corresponded at all. It was a clear succinct statement. G, K. Chesterton‘ Subject Of Essay a By Island Student (A number of essays have been written by students of St, Francis Xaviq University on G, K. Chest- erton, as critic, novelist, poet and historian, in competition for a. prize of fifty dollars offered by Sir Joseph Chisholm, chief Justice of Nova Sootia, The result was pro- ductive of a number. of excellent essays, including the following by Mr, Peter D. McIntyre, of Cardi- gan, this Provincez) In this day when the world's printing presses are thundering out, at such a stupendous rate. books, magazines, papers, pamphlets, and every other creation which may be classed under the name of liter- ature, the idea of a. survey cf any one writer seems, at first sight, to savor of the proverbial ta; of seek- mg for a grain of sand on the sea- shore, As we contemplate the great galaxy of individuals termed writ- ers. we may sigh in envy of the felicity of the reviewer of two centuries ago, who could count the great literary figurss of the time on the fingers of one hand, An effort at classification of mod- ern writers, however, shows us that the majority are in the mediocre class, and, as far as our purpose is concerned, they might now be in the oblivion to which, sooner or later, they will be relegated by pos- terity, Of those remaining. a large proportion, while not great, may be termed popular; and the last few who are both great and popu- lar are designated under the title of literary giants, Chesterton is cer- tainly popular. and the store the world sets by his utterances as well as the volume of his output place; him among the great of our time, The term “literary giant" might be considered especially fitting in his case. for contemplating his vast physical bulk, one mlght apply it in a, literal as well as a lite-nary smse. and add double force to the popular catch-phrase, The brilliant American columnist.

Chesterton seems to have an absolute disegard for personal appearance.

This regularity and frequency is attested by the fact that from i905 until 1930 he contributed an essay a week to the Iiondon Illustrated News, and missed only two editions in that time, In 1001 he married Miss Frances Blogg. and lived in London for a short time, subxquently moving to Eeaconsfield in Buckinghamshire. There he secured a huge rambling old country house which he named Top ‘Meadows and transformed it into a delightful residence. In this popular retreat Chcstertons numer- ous friends loved to visit him; a ret:eat similar in popularity to Pope's eighteenth century grotto at Twickenham. Chestertonks dom- “Is he married?" “No, but he is engaged-to a very nice girl, I believe. I've not yet met her." "And his address?" "21 Cromwell Street, S.

He's a moder- ately successful author." “Thank you, and their address?" "The Nook, Surrey Road, Wim- bledon." “Yes7" . "And the youngest is Brian-but he is out in Australia. I dontknow his address, but either his brother or sister would know." “Thank you, Mrs. Gardner. Just as u. matter of form. do you nilnd my asking you how you spent yes- terday aftemon?" c She looked surprised. "Let me see. I did some shopping —yes-t"nen I went to the pictures. I came home about six and lay down on my bed until dinner, as the pictures had given me rather a headache. fathers anything else?" (To Be Continued.)

"mar- - J ml, icile may provide for his friends a lesser degree of poetic purity and classical diction. but we may safe- ly say it provides a greater store of convlviality and good-fellow- ahip. Chesterton loves company, partly for the reason, perhaps, that he dominates almost any company and carries hls companions alon; on the crest of his abundant en- ergy and good cheer. Political Viewa Chestertons political views are indicative of his attitude towards his fellow men. While not by any means a radical given to declaim- lug against class distinction, his sympathlm have always been on the side of the oppressed. He be- gun life as an orthodox Liberal. but early became disgusted with party politics as cxemplifi°d by the two old parties, and reacting against them and the industrial capitalism of the time. became a “vWUNUW Phi... Socialist. Soon, however. he react- ed quite as vigorously against Sa- ctaliam, and, in company with Hil- aire Bclloc and others, prropogaied the Distrl5utlst theories with which his name is still associated. tributist Society. ton's political views was his alt- titude towards the social and moral trends of late Victorian and Ed- wardian days. His writings of those times show the vlrile contempt of the normal, logical thinker for the. smug and blase self-sufficiency and morlal decadence of pie-war Eng. land. Europe was inevitably drift- ing towards the turmoil of l9l4-18; despite this men were busily oc- cupied with petty philosophies and vain introspection. The militant Chesterton warred against these in a swashbuckling and pungent gtylg, sometimes affected, perhaps. but always effective. Just as two cen- turies earlier Steele and Addison had attempted by this forge 5nd keenness of their satire to make vice unfashionable. so Chesterton battled against what he considered the evils of his time by the shafts of his ridicule. He made himself most unpopular in places, for, as a modern write-i- has aptly put , 1t, “Chesterton has an uncanny gift for making nonsense appear nonsense.’ Defending conventionality in a most unconventional style he earn- ed the reputation of being the par- adoxical writer. Evidently he en- joyecl the reputation. for he con- tinued and enhanced the style, so that today he Ls known as “the master of paradox." There is no doubt it is. a catching style, and many of his apt titles are cast in this mould, as. for example, “Tre- mendous Trifles." Sometimes "par- adox" is hurled at him as an op- probiious epithet. and he is accus- ed of carrying it further than he needs. Others corrid°r it as a mark of his genius. Wide Range of Work Chcstcrton's littrnry work is by no means all controversia‘, for his output ranges from fiction ta fug- itive verse, and from art criticisms to discussions of ethics and re- ligion. His controversial work is im- poriimt however, for no man has greater fondness for argument and but fsw greater success in it. In argumentative vein he wrote “The Defendant" in i901. “Twelve Types’ (1902), and “Heretics" (1908) “Heretics" is perhaps his best con- troversial work. In this he attacks the popular theory that it is im- material what a man believes, and most convincingly proves the con- trary. In it his views are more or less negative, but in "Orthodoxy" (1908), which may be considered a complement to it, he holds a very positive attitude, showing tho de- velopment of his religious views, The periodical, GKfs Weekly, is, ‘ a. sort cf omclal organ for the Dls- i Closely connected with Chester-g l ehestemir; lchveisity of liter-e?! is his real logic, m: his e says an nove _ Eiiitfffiitfgllhey dssetract from hi! etry which otherwise would be are greatest of our day.

H. G. Wells. In i-Manalive‘ he gives an example of his psychological novel. but prob- ably never before-or since-were psychological phenomena set forth in such an unusual and provocative style as we find in the exuberances of Innocent Smith. "The Ball and the Cross," hinging on an 818"" ment between an atheist and a be- liever, shows an outcropping of lhP Chesterton controversial urge. No accusation of literary ab- struseness can be made in the 085° of the Father Brown books. a de- lightful series of detective tales. In these CllCll-Cflofl exhibits his uncanny ability to show, as he himself would say, the importance of the unimportant. for the de- noument often turns on an in- cident so trivial and unexpected that it leaves the reader Kflsping. This same ability contains the sec- ret of his success in the essay, for he can take the most trivial and unimportant thing, and clothe it with a. vesture of orizinal thoughts and fancies wich exhibit it l0 the surprised reader in an entirely new light. This he does to perfection in which culminated in hisconversion to Catholicism in 1922. of which we shall speak later. To proceed to a more general su:'_ vey involves a great many differ- ent aspects of literature. “Catholic Thoughts on Einglish Literature." (Shustcr) says that Chesterton is too much alive for anything like a true estimate of his genius. Scan- ning him is like trying to scan the bird: of the air, so diverse is his output. Chesterton as Poet His poetry is in the main con- sidered good though some of it, such as “The Queen of the Seven Swords" presents an abstruseness which its musical quality is hardly sufficient to offset. His first im- portant poetical work was “The Wild Knight" (1000) This is es- sentlally a satirical poem directed against his Victorian contempor- aries, and though perhaps bitter and somewhat uncouth in places. was considered a we‘come change after the artificiality of the Vic- torians. Someone said of it that it was like a voice from the street in his essay "On Pigs as Pets," and the same aptitude provides much of the sparkle found in his novels. Of the many adjectives which might be uaed in describing Chest- ertorrs novels. "different? sums them up with probably the greatest accuracy. His style as s, novel- writer has never been even ap- proximated. It cannot be said-un- fortunately-that he has establish- ed a new school of novel-writing. because no one seems to be able to approach his style. Rather, in the world of novelists, he inhabits an exclusive little kingdom of his own in the midst of the multitude of re- publican forms about him. as Historical “frlfcr A5 a, historical writer there is ‘ much diversity of opinion regarding his worth. He himself wouid be the last to put forward any pretensions to greativss as a, historian, and was wont to express surprise at the. to use his own words, “wild and awful success" of hi: "History of England." Judged by the norms mm... t. lave in the placed dry-as-duat u pi. ‘ ‘ b! IINWIIII authors. Perhaps the m- mttaintbatwhtchwehaveal- ready noted-that Chesterton can take common, prosaic facts which everybody kmvl. and, by the mlllfl o! his wit, present them tn our view from an entirely new angle. So it seems tn his criticisms. for under his ben- the well-know! stories of the livea and works of the eighteenth century masters have taken new life, have shaken of! the mouldineas deposited by old-school critics, and seem to us almost new creations. Comparison With Dickens M? ‘ o! Dickens calla to mind the names of three men who up said to have had a. Rreat influence on Chesterton. ‘Phase am Dickens, Newman, and Belloc. With Dickens he is considered to have much in common, though to my mind he suffer: somewhat in a comparison with the great Victor- ian, viewed, at any rate. from present times. That posterity will accord him an equally great place is a matter of opinion. The simil- arity is most pronounced in humor, though here too. I fear, G.K.0. suffers slightly by comparison. He is a sincere admirer of Newman and holds much of the Newman philosophy. ‘Their cases are some- what similar as far as religious convictions are concerned, but there the similarity ends. Newman was the ascetic, viewing the crowd from a distance and concerned almost entirely with spiritual considera- tions. Chestci-txin is a lover of the crowd, mixing freely with them. and overflowing with the joy of life. Lastly, to his great friend and collaborator, Belloc, Chesterton owes much. Belioc, with his keen. analy- tical mlnd and calm reasoning, is a stabilizing medium on the more ebullient Chesterton. Their abilit- ies are complementary; so much so that George Bernard Shaw. chuck- lingly refers to them as “Chester- belloc." ' Probably the most importantev- ent in Chestertoifs life was his con- version to Catholicism in 1922. This did not mean any great change in his views. He was always more Catholic than otherwise, and it seems he had been tending in that direction f : a score of years pre- viously. It had a significant effect on his writing. for after this, much of the swashbuckling char- acter of his earlier work disappear- ed to be replaced by a calm logic which bids fair to enhance his prestige. Rel] lous Writings As a Catholic writer he has since his conversion been a leading con- troversiallst, for at all times his trenchant pen is ready and willing to contest any point of doctrine or morals in dispute. Indeed it seems that his best work has been done since i922, for his "Everlasting Man" has been called Chestertows greatest. His Catholic biographies, "St. Francis of Assisi." and "St. Thomas Aquinas," are ranked among leading Catholic biograph- ies, In his Catholic writings, while he is perhaps more ordered and logical, Chesterton exhibits all the old vim and fire of his earlier works. His essays attacking Birth Control, Eugenics. and other social and moral evils of the nineteen- twentias, are quite as vigorous as and more unanswerable than any- thing he ever wrote. Nut all Chester-tom's work is llreat. It has many imperfections which. with the enormous volume cf his output is. I suppose. excus- able. Dr. Johnson says of Dryden that he never revised his work. for once a thing was written it ceased to trouble him; hence the faults in his work are many. The same nus srnvic: Via. Cardigan and Newport Ferry Road - used for the cut-and-drled meth- a room where everyone was bored to death. Then came the songs of “The Flying Inn’ and the more satirical “Ballades Urbane." His greatest poems are “The Ballad of the White Horse" and “Iepantofl “The Ballad of the Wh'te Horse" ha". been called the great English epic of modern times, and indeed it is a most ziclichtful epic with its swiging meter and intriguing story. It deals ostensibly with the life and times of King Alf- red, with an allegorical thread struggle waged between chi-minn- ity and paganism. "Lepanto," and allegory on the same subject, paints a glowing picture of that epic bat- tle, with all the romantic appeal of the dashing Don John of Aus- tria, and of the great issue at stake of the Christian against the Moslern. While he is accused of undue re- moteness in his poetry. these last two are remarkably clear and ex- plicit in meaning. as is his early attempt at drama. "Magic." (i018) a fanciful play in three acts. It was immediately successful. but he wrote no mom plays until i021. Many modern: hold that, in v grrvicvl running through representing the ods of historians in Victoria's day, Chester! n's history may seem im- perfect as‘far as historical facts go, and he is ridiculed for his alleged too great dependence on tradition and legends rather than "facts." He is, however, most convincing in his defence of tradition and legends, Besides, as his object was to write a history for the people. from tho popular point of view, and not it :1\‘0Ol text-book of history, the mass or trivial detail bothered him not at all. His history has much to recommend lt. for it is very readable. It is written in a racy and provocative style, ind sheds new light on many of the hoary myths or Victorian history- wrifcrs, for whom, by the way. Chesterton had small respect. His historical writings on medieval times show him to be an ardent admirer of the medieval, and al- so bring down on him the ire of many modern historians for his ridicule of their attitude. which seems to imply that Christian hia- tory had its origin with Luther rather than with Christ. While in his poetry and novels Chesterton shows the liveliest fancy and great imaginative power, it must not be thought that he deals any 10s efieetively with hia- i torical and biographical facts. We have laid he belan his writinl career as an art critic, and a critic of outstanding ability he has N- rnained until this day. In feet.

Dry- den wns the typical- Englishman, a. convert, had a great versatility of talent, writing everything, and in the great volume o! his work turned out many things which showed the stamp of haste and carelessness. These points might. without exception, be applied to Chesterton. Both, however, are suf- ficiently in demand so that they can aflord imperfections. which would be disastrous to a less popu- lar writer. Thus when Chesterton is accused of ambiguity, pushing the paradox too far. lack of clarity and originality, all of which ac- cuasions contain a small element of truth, we find these faults scatter- ed ao spB-Hey through such a vast volume of meritorious work that their effect is hardly noticed. HI: Popularity Whatever posterity may say o! Chesterton, there is no gain-saying his popularity in his ovm time, both es a writer and as man. He h certainly one of the great minds of present-day Ilngland, and with this he combines the frankness and enthusiasm of a child. Whatever part of his work will be remem- bered none will question the fact. that it stands out an oasis of clem- ness in the desert of modem risque writings. Much of his work may be forgotten, but I feel there will always remain the effect of the purity and strength of his influ- ence on Ihlglish literature of the early twentieth century. There are many tales abroad o! his exuberance and love of life. His friends sometimes jokingly say that in his disrespect for the man- ners and customs. as well as the social system, of our clay, he is a. throw-back to the medieval days he admires so much. While we know that G.K.C. is, in most way, B lllYd-hfifided modem. perhaps we like to think that there is some truth in his friends’ aneggtlon, and that the following Qxcgrpl, lmm an article on Chesterton written by his old friend A.
