title, Flotsam. of My 11 earl, by Miss Montgomery (Arthur H. Stockwell, 2s.), shows a lyrical quality that is quite rare enough to be attractive. Here, at least, are none of those tedious expert= inents in verse with which the reviewer becomes so wearily familiar. The author has trapped a certain easy music in her obviously heart-felt verses. * * * *
