Mrs. Berryman Thompson's “Book of Poems nnd Prose, With Favorite Selec tions,” hns caused a ripple of pleasure in tlie tranquil lives of her friends, for tlie edition is limited, ns the dedication tolls, ‘ ‘ To Those Who Love Me. ’ ’ On ac count of its local setting and many true tributes to those wo know and admire, it possesses especial charm to citizens of Newnau and surrounding section. It is heart-life in song, and portrays a high spirituality, except a few humorous selec tions which cause a smile to chase away a tear which the sad sentiments may bring forth. Her recollections of a happy childhood is a universal experience appealing .to all. A poem, “To Lueile,” is beautiful, ns 1 ‘ ono whoso life lias boon a joy to me.” A little poem to Mrs. T. E. Atkinson, when Sunday-school teachers sent her a blooming azalia, is sweet and appropriate. Appearing im mediately after the World War, the book contains many exalted tributes to tlie heroes who went out from among us to cheek the Hun. One in memory of Chariton Leach is a worthy tribute; and none excels “Tho Brewster Service Flag” in sustained patriotism, depicting the stainless chivalry of Southern and American valor. Lines to Rev. W. J. Cotter on his ninetieth birth day, written eight years ago, is a lofty tribute to true worth, os are those in memory of Rev. F, G. Hughes and Absalom Longino. The memorial to Mr, Y. B, Thompson strikes an answering chord In the hearts of our older residents. Those to her own loved ones are tenderly true, “In Memory of Mothpr,” another of “My Precious Boy,” strike the complaining koynote of her grief, showing that Bhe lias stood face to faco with sorrow and walked linnd in hand with griof, but through it all has been sustained by divine aid, which has given a soulful spirituality to lior lifo, that radiates cheer to all who suffer and mourn. In her papers read bofore the Missionary Society of tlie Methodist church she brings a helpful fund of in formation, gained by extensive reading and travel 1 . The fine addresses of hor son, Charles, at from 14 to 10 years old, are published- In her poetic selections, “The Chambered Nautilus” easily comes first. ‘‘Tired Mothers,” nnd “If” are also fine. Her favorite Bible verses open up a rich, true religious experience. She also gives ns favorites some of the grand old hymns of the church by the Wesleys, and Fannie Crosby’s “Saved by Grace,” Never truo poet lived and sung in vain; Lost if his name, and withered if his wreath, .
