While Russia may be expecting much of the other nations it must realize that it must be prepared to make some real concessions. It cannot expect that the other countries are going to tumble ove- themselves to do favors for it after the manner i which it has been conducting affairs unless they can be convinced that are going to respect an agreement, even though that means a radical depar- ture from past conduct. Thus when the soviets are told they st agree to pay its debts, indemnify forelgners and restore confiscated prop- “|erty before there can be that much sought *|recognition Russia has no reason to be surprised.

In this last edi- tion the thirteen chapters of the origi- nal had grown to twenty-one. Although “The Compleat Angler” was not Walton's first literary work, his leisurely labors as a biographer seem to have grown out of his devo- tion of angling. It was probably as an angler that he met familiarly a number of eminent men whose lives he later wrote and had printed. One of these was Sir Henry Wotton, whose life written by Walton was published in 1651. His life of Hooker was published in 1662, his life of George Herbert in 1§70 and of Bishop Sanderson in 1678, at the age of eighty five only five years before his death. These “lives’ were evidently writ- ten with loving care, in the same le surely fashion as bis “Compleat An- gler,” and like it, are of value le: as exact knowledge than as harmon ous and complete pictures of char- acter. Walton also rendered affectionate service to the memory of his friends Sir Jobn Skeffington and John Chalk- hill, editing with prefatory notices Skeffington’s “Hero of Lovenzo” and Chalkhill's “Thealma and Clearchus” the latter a few months before his death in 1683. Izaak Walton, according to Wood, during all his mature years spent most of h.s time “in the families of the emi- nent clergyman of England, of whom he was much beloved.” The last forty years of his life he seems to have spent in ideal leisure and occupation, trav- eling here and there, visiting his “emi- nent clergymen” and other brethren of the angle, compiling the biograph of congenizl spirits and collecting here and there a little for the enlargement of his famous treatise. Walton’s “The Compleat Angler” is of little value now in its intended function of a treatise, but it will al- ways live as a fishing idyll of great beauty. It appeared in five editions, prepared by Walton during his life- time, and greatly elaborated; since his death more than 100 editions have ap- peared, and the demand for “Waitoni- ana” has given a high value to the earlier copies. At ninety, the age at which he died, Walton acted as proctor in convocation for the diocese of Salisbury. The last literary work in which he was engag- ed and which was continued almost up to the day of his death, was his collaboration with John Walker in the “History of the Sufferings of the Cler- iy Izaalk Walton wrote considerable po- etry of a very high class, but it was mostly as appendages to the works by other authors. His poems and let- ters have been preserved in Richard Herne Shepard’s “Waltoniana” which was Issued in 1878. IN THE PUBLIC EYE Martin B.

The Vanishing Point. By Conings’ Dawson. Cloth, iliustrated, 350 pages Published by The Cosmopolitan Book Corporation, New York. Price $2. In this new book by Coningsby Daw- son there is a departure from his type of books, and yet while it differs it nevertheless displays his exquisite liter- ary style and his gift for vivid, ac- curate character portrayal. It is a book with a powerful plot, packed With mys- tery and thrilling adventure. sThe Vanishing Point is the story of an American traveler—a business man— who knew nothing at all about women. Pinned to his pillow at the Ritz, he found a note on which was written “Follow the Widow.” And for the first time in his life he discovered in him- self an unsuspected capacity for ehlv- alrous recklessness. He meets one woman whom readers will call either the wickedest in the world or the greatest saint. And finds that to be loved by this particular wo- man has always been more or less like witnessing one’s death warrang. He meets another who, as 2 substitute for passion, had tried sainthood. It hadn't satisfled. Several times he is tempted to take “the first train back to sanity,” but has has become too deeply involved in present-dfy Huropean intrigues of a sort that will open the eyes of the DBook’s readers.
