Perhaps the appreciation 1011 modern poetry has never been at I a tower ebb. It seems to us that a lew years ago there was a greater interest in the modern and their pulsating changes in verse but. m tills section at any rate, there is ,t I dearth of Interest and enthusiasm At the same time one could charge with some cause that the interest in literature has not grown by leaps and bounds. But there is i certain consistent devotion to bet ter writing that indicates a real appreciation for prose. It is some what hard, after an acquaintance ship with nineteen century British verse, far us to become so en thusiastic about the production of modem stylists, for poetry, like new [shoes, must be made to fit before it is genuinely comfortable. The Nation writes ot modern American poet;, and their possibili ties with the future with particu lar reference to one of the betto* [known of the moderns-: “Vachel Lindsay is the first t j die of those men whom American have been in the habit for at lear. a decade of considering/ as the standard poets of iheir century Robinson, Frost Sandburg. Mas ters and Lindsay—here were five I men who had made and kept a na tional reputation the justice of j which one one ground or another i could not be disputed. Different as me nve were irom one anomei they were nevertheless comparable in that each of them had produc ed work of a measurable quantity and that each of them had made a contribution to the discussion of human nature, which presumably is the ultimate concern of any kind of literary art. Subtler and mo-e ingenious poets had supplanted th‘ last three in the minds of connois seurs; yet the five remained im movable-bound to be thought of in any survey of contemporary verse and difficult to dispose of. “Vachel Lindsay had suffered ir reputation most of these five—one of whom, if not two, can be said never to have suffered at all. Pm several years before his death Lind say must have been away that thi world endured his eccentricity only because it had once been exciting and admirable. If it was so ne longer, there was at least ‘The Con go’ to remember; and 'Genera! William Booth Enters into.Heaven’; and ’Abraham Lincoln Walks at Midnight’; and The Chinese Nightingale'; and ’The Santa Fe Trail’;; and ‘The Eagle That Is Forgotten.' The latter years pro duced nothing like any of these; they produced, indeed, a great deal of pathetic nonsense, and the ‘Col lected Poems' have as much bad poetry in them as ever was pro duced perhaps by a famous man. “How much value we shall con tinue to glace on the better poem? is of course a question to which there can be no answer at a mo ment when the generation repres ented by Lindsay is in process of being succeeded by another one whose representatives arc so clear ly different from him. Robinson Jeffers, Archibald MacLeish, Hart Crane, Allen Tate, Phelps Putnam —these and a down others seem to be separated by centuries from a poet like Lindsay. This is not to say, however that Lindsay will no! continue to speak with a very in teresting voice. If he does so it via be because the poems through which he speaks are still impressive either because of their message or be cause of their art. For cf messagr they are full; It }s not-without sig nificance fnst Lindsay lectured for years at a Y. M. C.

The ques tion how long these simple n thus isms of Lindsay for peace andj purity will be capable ot stirring' American readers must be left, of] course, to time "The answer will be determined lit, part also by the degree of re-perl which Lindsay s art succeeds in keeping When the legend is lost of his strange, wild platform appear ances, when no one remembers anj more having heard 'The Congo read 'as it should be’ read'—what then?
