But the story is not told from her point of view. Mr. Howard imagines these telepathic projections of such strength that six or seven people, none of whom anticipate her arrival, and some of whom do not know her, talk with her, and worry about her. The story has charm and subtlety, though at times it lacks clarity and suffers from a fre- quent change in point of view. The conversations are interesting in their numerous implications. Katharine Brush's Him and Her has in it the elements of tragedy. With striking economy Miss Brush tells the entire life of two people in the dialogue of their chambermaid and a visitor. In a few words there is a sharp presen- tation of two personalities, two lives. The story is dramatically and realisti- cally told, yet it is singularly simple, and omits elaborations and non-essen- tials. Within three thousand words the author gives her complete picture from CjJtearns graphically, and succeeds in arousing sympathy for both people concerned. E. F. P., '31.
