Hard enough to be poor --still worse to be sick and poor. The lot of the eonsumPtive is a spe- cially trying one. Only recently a family was discovered living in two small rooms over a store. At one time they had occupied a comfortable home but the father took sick mad' had to give up work. With the srieiags all gone, they were forced to sell the fur- niture to buy food. When the man was found to be a consumptive, this was the opportunity of the Muskoka Free Hospital to bring relief so that not only would the stricken husband' have a winning chance for life, but more desirable still, the wife and chil- dren should he removed from danger of contracting the disease. Under skil- ful guidance idi-ful'guidance the home was cleaned u and . the family temporarily pro ' for.

Although the Poets %Yelte the, Most `. Inabostrions of the Literary Men, aiO Ntrniber• of Noyeie hand Sevea'i! l Ixtereetiang "War Hooke Were Also Published' In the Dominion. HE writers of Canada have been; by no means idle dur- ing 1917. It is true that no novel has been written Which makes ,one feel that Canadian, literature is hastening towards the' time .when it will demand the recog- nition of the world, but at.least our ‘1 Titers of fiction are busy, and there arp signs that someof them feel am- bitious to do big things. Still it has, as usual, been to writers or,rerse and rot to writers of prose that the re- viewers have been able to apply su- perlatives, and the book which at- tracted the most attention •was "A Canadian Twilight," by Lieut. Bern- ard Freeman Trotter, ; published shortly before Christmas. There was a tragic interest centred" in this Mender volume because Lieut. Trot- ter was killed in France last May. With the young poet life was only beginning, and his remarkable poetic gift had only just commenced _ to blossom. There were only a few poems in the book that represented his mature powers, and they were marked by nobility of sentiment and exquisite beauty of utterance. Even the poems written in childhood by Lieut. Trotter, displayed his poetic Instinct, and one feels that Canadian literature suffered a very • genuine loss when the young man's life was sacrificed in the great game of war. Practically all our poets are sing ing et the war, and a good deal of their verse ,is not the sort that en-, dures. Patristic poetry, with its commendable but trite sentiment, can be written so easily that versi- fiers toss it or and make the mistake of thinking that rapidity indicates inspiration. Robert J. C. Stead, of Calgary, wrote one inspiring poem in 1916, after the death'of Lord Kitch- ener, and he has published it in a volume , entitled "Kitchener- and Other Poems," but the other poems are hardly worthy of the one that brought Mr. Stead his reputation. Another poet, Mr. A. C. Stewart, -eine) a stirring bit of verse entitled "The :Shell, which also;. gave the name to a book, though here again one set of verses made the volume worth while. The book., of war poe try most even in quality throughout. wax "In the " Battle Silences," by Canon. Frederick . George Scott, of' Quebec,. me went to Francmas.senior chaplain of the first Canadian Divi- sion. Other poets hare also been busy writingand' publishing war verse, .two more volumes issued this Year being "Marching Men," by Helena Coleman. and "The New Joan," byKatherine Hale. Oneef ., n, I our poets who possesses a striking lyrical gift is Robert Norwood, and in searching for subjects he has kept almost entirely away from the war. H's - most ambitious effort of the twelvemonth was his blank verse _rama, "The Witch of Endor," though probably "The Piper and the feed" did more for his permanent reputation among Canadian poets. A new volume by Dr. A. D. Watson, to which he gave : the poetic though hot'highly original tit‘e "In the Heart of the Hills" might be added to the _list of the best Canadian poetry. Per- hops er-hops "Songs of a Young Man's Land." by Sir Clive Phillips-Wolley, should also be mentioned, although the poet is still • an Englishman be- fore ri1 else and only a Canadian be - cause he is an imperialist, in spite of his long life' in the Dominion. His name and title alone stamp him as something different from our own native poets. An even dozen novels by Cana- dians have been published during the year, unless one can still count Basil King as a Canadian. As this author has been living ii the United States and writing about Amerieans ever since he made his reputation, perhaps it is just as well not to lay claim to "The Lifted Veil" and "The Nigh Heart." Of the Canadian, novels written here in the Dominion, our nreferenee was for "Up the Hill and Over," by Isabel Ecclestone Mackay. This story of life in an. Ontario vil- lage is unpretentious and. deilghtfuL The plot is thoroughly feminine, but Mrs. Mackay has handled her mater- ial well. ' Rev. H. A. Cody is another of our novelists whose literary work- manship is good. Sometimes his stories are Just a trifle stodgy, but It is practically always safe to recom- mend hem lCana- -titan good of assamples p fiction. His annual novel is en- titled "Under Sealed Orders," and deals with a power development com- pany, a theme with more romantic possibilities than a person might think at first glance. In '`The Inner Door" Alan Sullivan made an earn- est endeavor to present a study of the problem of. capital and labor, but the subject proved too 'big for him and ee failed to make his story convinc- ing. No author in Canada possesses .l more finished style than .Mr, Sulli- van. Perhaps his English is a little too highly decorated, though it is polished and easy, but Mr. Sullivan vas yet to find the secret of creatiug end presenting character. He writes well, but he writes about puppets. Tlae series of novels that L. M. `,lontgomery began with "Anne of i seen Gables," has now reached Anne's House of Dreams." These gentle and wholesome little stories are n uclr"beloved'by a groat number of` "women Who like pretty fiction, and this authoress maintains her stand- Lr'd, Another writer who has his special public is Ralph Connor.
