INDIAN TALES AND OTHERS. By John G. Neihardt. (Macmillan. 10s.

6d.)-The yearning dreams of an ancient race, the primitive passions of love and hate, are gathered together in these strangely moving tales. -For-the first part they tell of the Red Indian tribes, stilt unspoiled -by the White Man's touch, of great fighters and great •dreaniers. There is something fundamental about .this

poetical and written with a charming simplicity.
