philosophical thought, ecomony of style. But Tristram is glowing with passion and imagination, and the language is exceedingly beautiful. It is work that any poet in the world would be proud to sign.


The last year is like all others in seeing more new works of prose fiction than of any other variety; some of these are good enough for any place or period. The finest American novel of 1927 is The Bridge of San Luis Rey, by Thornton Wilder. This young man, who was born in 1897, has apparently seen more of the world and of human nature in thirty years than many see in eighty. His first novel, published two years ago, was an exotic and allusive will-o'-the-wisp, called The Cabala. I read it through with interest, charmed by the subtle music of the style; but I did not know then, nor do I know now, what it was all about. I was content however to listen. The Bridge of San Luis Rey is an immense ad- vance; in the former work he was tuning up his instru- ment. Here he has something to say, in fact a great deal. This is an original and beautiful work of art. It is original in its conception, in its plan and construc- tion, in its characterization, and in its method of pres- entation. As for the style, Arnold Bennett, who ought to know, calls it "absolutely first rate work.'


Death Comes for the Archbishop is a series of pictures, static rather than dynamic. It is purposely written in exactly the opposite manner to that of our magazine fiction; there are few dramatic or exciting incidents. It is a series of beautiful pictures of a certain aspect of American life that needed just this treatment. Willa Cather wrote this book to please herself, which is why it pleases all readers of taste and intelligence.


A star of the first magnitude has joined the ranks of the novelists. This is the Englishman H. M. Tomlinson, whose first novel, Gallions Reach, is a work of high dis- tinction. He wrote it just to see if he could write a novel. He should be satisfied.

SAMUEL PHILLIPS, JR. Founder of Phillips Academy


Petrarch the Humanist (Continued from page 61)


her; as he wrote on the first page of a codex of Vergil, "I am convinced that her soul, as Seneca said of Africanus, has returned to heaven, whence it came. Henceforth the bitter memory will remain with a certain bitter sweetness and most powerfully in this place and no joy will remain to me as long as I shall live."


In spite of this sorrow, which he cherished in his solitude in the lovely valley of the Sorgue, he continued collecting ancient manuscripts. He had been fortunate enough to find two hitherto unknown orations and a collection of the Epistles of Cicero. He himself wrote in excellent Latin a most fascinating letter to the long dead orator, setting the example for later authors to indite epistles to the dead. Many of the princely houses of Italy would have been glad to welcome him under their roofs, and, though he had no private fortune and enjoyed only what the Medici family and other patrons bestowed upon him, he preferred his inde- pendence, and in a fascinating series of familiar letters he lavished his learning and his flashing wit on his friends through correspondence rather than in daily intercourse. "The Columbus of a new spiritual hemisphere" passionately devoted himself to his books and ancient manuscripts. Here is what he wrote to his friend Frater Gerardus, the Carthusian:


"Lest you might think that I am immune to all the frailties of men, an inexplicable cupidity has me in its clutches and up to the present time I have not been able to curb it, nor have I desired to do so, for I do not flatter myself that to be covetous of honorable things is dishonorable. Dost thou expect to hear of some illness? Nay, I can not sate my hunger for books: and perhaps I have more than is becoming. But as in other things, so it happens to books: success in acquiring is a spur to avarice. Gold, silver, gems, purple raiment, marble halls, a cultivated field, paintings, a well caparisoned steed, and all that sort of thing confer a mute and


superficial pleasure, books give delight to the inmost soul (medullitus); they converse, console, and attach themselves to us by a certain vital and close familiarity."


How charmingly he writes, in his vivid, clear, beauti- ful Latin, of the simple pleasures he gets from his residence "ad fontem Sorgiae". He has successfully "waged war" upon his body, having come to regard his throat, his belly, his tongue, his eyes, and his ears not as essential organs but as impious enemies. His eyes especially, he declares, which were always inclined to lead him into all sorts of rashnesses, had caused him many troubles, but now he has taught them to behold almost nothing beyond the sky, the mountains, and the fountains, and he almost repeats his expression in the letter just cited, which readers may like to try to trans- late from the original: "Non aurum, non gemmae, non ebur, non purpuram, non equos, nisi duos eosque ipsos exiguos, qui cum unico puero, hic me vallibus circum- vectant, postremo nullius usquam mulieris nisi vilicae meae faciem, quam si videas, solitudinem Lybicam aut Aethiopicam putes te videre".


"Had Helen worn such a face," he goes on to say, "Troy would be still standing, if Lucretia and Virginia, Tarquin would not have been expelled from his kingdom and Appius would not have ended his life in prison." The only fly in the ointment is that he can not find good servants. He devotes a whole letter to recriminations against the class. He cites Seneca's saying: "so many servants, so many enemies," and swears: "ego bonum servum numquam vidi" - I have never seen a good servant.


If one's knowledge of Latin is sufficiently tempered to cope with Petrarca's letters, I should earnestly advise reading them in the original: they are well worth the pains. At all events, it is surely a matter of courtesy to a great poet and an even greater lover, to devote a few hours to reading Petrarca's tribute to his beloved Laura at this time, so close to the sexcentenary of that im- mortal meeting in the church of Saint Clara in Avignon. Petrarca was one of the greatest men of the Renascence, and the debt of learning, at least of classical learning, to his unceasing labors can never be adequately expressed.


Delphi


(Continued from page 54)


Phillips track team, proposed that we should celebrate our day by a course down and back in the footsteps of those glorious young Greeks celebrated in the verses of Pindar. But his proposal fell on deaf ears. The July sun was now high, and the forenoon had become too hot - for western men dressed in modern costume. So we sat in the shadows of a retired nook and pictured to ourselves the lively and colorful scenes that had once animated this stadium and the theatre below us. "Creatures of a day", said Pindar, "what is anyone? What is he not? Man is but a dream of a shadow; but whenever a heaven-sent shaft of sunshine comes, radiant light rests on men and gentle is their space of life".

Congratulations, Phillips Academy!


Every individual, to be successful, must be useful. The application of this principle is borne out in the lives of educational institutions as it is in the lives of men.


During the one hundred and fifty years of its life, Phillips Academy has proved its usefulness in the the service its graduates have given the nation.


In banking and educational institutions age means more than time measured by years, age means strength, solidity and the attainment of an abiding confidence.


This old banking institution is happy in adding its congratulations and good wishes to Phillips Academy on this, its Sesquicentennial Anniversary.

~ ~ the most important thing to remember when buying insulation


"Shall I select a rigid or a flexible material?" Keep this question in mind and it will be easy to select the right insulation for your home. Then, neither trade-names, salesman- ship nor advertising will confuse you on this important subject.


Remember this simple fact: Flexible insula- tion, such as Balsam- Wool, is made and used for only one purpose-for insulation It is added to walls and roofs- tucked snugly between studdings and joists and into every crack and crevice to make houses heat -tight. There is no other way. Unless it tucks in, no material will stop the big heat loss that occurs through cracks.


The thickness of the material used is also quite as important as the type of material. Authorities recommend a full inch of insu- lation as the most profitable investment.


Balsam- Wool is the only blanket form of building insulation sold in full inch as well as half-inch thicknesses.


Investigate the subject thoroughly before you spend a cent for insulation. Mail the coupon now for a free sample of Balsam-Wool and a copy of our instructive booklet, "House Comfort That Pays for Itself."
