THE LIMESTONSE' TREE. ,By joseph Hergesheèimer.. Alfred A. . Kentucky is like the Churcb o England, unique,, easily combining b~~~ ireocble atributes, and breeding in bher sons an unshakable conviction of superiority whicb tbeywould neyer *dream of trying te justify. Ken- tucky was"a, slave state, yet not. a Confederate. state; an imperishable, sovereignty wbere the doctrine of states' rights is stili, held, which yet fought to pres.erve tbe Imperishable union of sucb sove reignities; a dark and :bloody ground, 'from the uùnre- *corded days wben a dozen: nations of Indians fought each' other. for it, *which bas, in iîts valley cçountry, al- ways suggested the. peace o.f the >eartbly paradise.. And like Scot- - land's, her history combines in a sin- . gular degree thesense of romance and the sense of reality.' It- was natural that Mr., Hergesheinier, whose imagination is: stirred equally by the tropical passions-of the soutb and the claritv of the .old Anglo- .Saxon nortb, sbould be noved to at- tenipt an interpretation of this coun- try wbere thev j oi in such splendid paradox. As is perhaps to be expected, .Mr. Hergesheimer niaintains that Ken-. tucky is essentialIy northern. Hie is at -pains to have bis characters say that iii luck always cornes to them f rom the south. His Federalists, his Unionists, bis Republicans, are bis real beroes, and his final picture of Kentucky presents it almost as the last frontier -Of tbe sturdy_ North againist the. laniguorous, dangerous. Soutb. This view may ofcourse bei questioned. The real issue 'in the, *Civil War (according, to many tro d- cmn historians) -was industrialism1 against agriculture; the real griev-.1 ance of the Nortb was that:the Soit E~. P. utto and Co. Johannes. Brahms had power. They. buried him next to Beethoven an~d Schubert, but hie died weeping. In the circumstance of his death and interment is implicit the tragic and profound fiow of bis life: he was' a richly human man,,with hunger for affection, forý laughter, and commnon joys, yet hie moved,* possessed by, a huge dream, qlong a lonely, tori way to the company of iinmortals. He had inner contradictions which would flnot let'him, be, and. thus was lost to hap- piness from the very beginning; his. nature held dissonances thati could neyer be ,resolved,:shutting him off froin ease,*of living and friendship and the love of womený. It is- clear that the -traditional1 muinsi- cal, biography with its emphasis. on chronology and faétual fuilness, -could. flot have corne-close to. the secret of so enigmatic a figure. For outwardly Brahmns's life is without drama. He creates in isolation, spends hours with books and picture, waniders through forests, enjoys bla'ck bread and children, folk-lore and peasant puddings. But within ail is stress, gnawing, renuliciation1. It is this in- nerness which. 15 PJichard Specht' s concern, not the enumeration: of con- cert tours; lhe examines ("I do flot aim at completeness but coherence; flot at chronology but psycbology") the experience' of a soul. His work combines intuitiveness with learning; it is imaginative yet based on actual intiacy with the master; if has the movement of a novel. Bt'ahms lives i it. DARTMOUJTH VERSE 1930.
