Jane Uur Stranger—Mary Borden
~—-\lrrcd A. Knopf, N. Y.
The subject of international mis-
nllianccs will .li\\'a.\8 be or keen in-
terest to people interested in the
clash of character on character. and
the influence of background on hu-
manity. Miss Bordon has written
a most interesting story of the mar-
riage oi an American girl to a
French nobleman.
Jane is the daughter of a wealthy
American gold-miner brought up by
her Grandmother and aunts in St.
Mary’s Plains among sane. unnretem
tious intelligent people. Her mother
bored by America after the death
of her husband spends hrr life in
Paris, the tool and joke of the im—
poverished French nobility. Mrs.
Carpenter suddenly transplants her
daughter to aristocratic Paris to be-
come the wife of the superb but
pcnnilcss Marquis de Joiner. Jane
with her characteristic exaggeration
loves her husband too well and can
not understand the sophisticated at-
mosphere of the world into which
she has been thrown. She quite na-
turally shocks the de Joingvs—thev
almost fear for their lives from he}
robustness and enthusiasm. It is
only after she has been bullcd by
their artificiality and withdrawn her-
self into indifference that their can
tolerate her. But. never do they un-
derstand her or take her into their

Jane‘s crec-i is the Ten Command-
ments though even she does not re-
alize it. and it is her inability to
mat-kc a compromise between this
and the. life she finds in Paris that
makes the failure of all she tries to
do. She just tries too hard and nev-
rr learns tlmt--“liie is not a. thing
to fear. that it is a. little trivial thing

element like. air, to be eaten, or

gives her an opportunity to use her

succeeds well. the first time that the
taunt}, can be proud of her. Yet
this magnificent work is the undoing
of her with her daughter. who has
lwrn so pampered by the old norld
and her luxuries that she can not be
anything but painfully shocked by
her (-icardhinking and straight-for-
unrd mother. .
The story is told by Blatse. the
first part as he observed Jane with
the help or what she had told him
about. her childhood. and the second
part as she told him what happened
when he Visited her in St. Mary‘s
Plain after she had left Paris for
good. Aunt Patty. the one person
in the world who knew Jane left
her the Grey House. Aunt Patty
alone realized that Jane could not
il\e in the aristocratic artificial com-
promise to which her mother took
her and would need a place to turn
to when she had worked herself out
of that life.
Miss Borden has given us convinv
cing studies at distinctly different
and interesting typos. Her achieve-
mm‘ M portraying the clash of
character and play of ideas in this
quiet unpretentious narrative shows
her possessed of rare taste and abil-

The Childrens' Librarians‘ Section
of the American Library Association
at the convention in
Springs this summer awarded to
Charles Boardman Haw-es the John
Neil-berry Medal for his third book
"The Dark Frigate" "the most dis~
tinguished contribution to American
literature for children" during 1923
I‘misitierahle interest centered a:
round the unanimous opinion in pre-

untimely death. His publishers the
Atlantic Monthly Press have honor-

The Neivbery Medal is named for
the old English bookseller of the

was the first publisher of children's

made by Rene Chambellan. .In 1921

Later, in 1795. as x‘idshipman in the
Royal Nmy, it was his vessel that.
conveyed the governor of New Hol-
land to Botany Bay. While in that
unexplored region lv‘lindcrs deter-t
mined to investigate the coast south
or Port Jackson, about two hun-
dred and fifty leagues, which on the
charts was market “unknown."
With a crew of six men. and his
friend Bass, a youthful and daring
surgeon. he set sail in a small ves-
sel with great hopes—which unlike
the majority of dreams. were not to
be shattered. Their first important
find. was the discovery of the strait
between Van Diemen's Land (now
known as Tasmania) and Australia.
which they named alter Bass. In
1801 Fitndera was in command of a
scientific expedition that was sent
out by the' British government. Begin
ning at Cape Leuwin, they sailed
northward to the Gulf oi Carpentaria
which was thoroughly surveyed by
Flindcrs across to Timur. The expo-
dition was some two years before it
returned to Port Jackson.
For six years Captain li‘linders was
in a French prison on the Isle of
France. Being set free after this per-
iod or time, he immediately returned
to England in 1810. There he made
his adu‘nturo known to the world in
“A Voyage to Terra Australia". and
on the day that his reminiscences
were to come forth in book form. he
died—vainly is. 1510.

against his recovery from a malady
to which he might have paid com-
paratively little attention fifty years
earlier in his career.
What is unique in this case is that
the man “as in his day a farmer
and had always lived upon a farm.
Because of this he must have come
in contact with poison ivy annually.
and, one might almost say. constant-
ly. yet he did not become immune
to it as do most persons in his oc-
cupation. At. least one must assume
that iarmcrs do. for cases among
adults are rcarly heard of although
the farmer is likely to come in con-
tact with either poison ivy or poison
sumac at any time lathe course at
'his work. The sumac is more poison-
ous of‘hc two but. happily is a lit-
tle less common.
That a person should die as a
result of poison ivy is. we. should
say. most unusual although a. death
from this cause occurred in the
state last year. This would suggest
that the mortality rate is in shade
less than that. of death from light-
ning. to which fate none of us is
immune. The case in Redding sug-
gests that ivy poisoning is not the
rare Joke which those who never
suffer fro mit imagine.
