With a preface by HARRIET MONROE, Editor of the _Poetry Magazine_. _Cloth, 12mo, $1.25; leather, $1.60_ In the readings which Vachel Lindsay has given for colleges, universities, etc., throughout the country, he has won the approbation of the critics and of his audiences in general for the new verse-form which he is employing, as well as the manner of his chanting and singing, which is peculiarly his own. He carries in memory all the poems in his books, and recites the program made out for him; the wonderful effect of sound produced by his lines, their relation to the idea which the author seeks to convey, and their marvelous lyrical quality are quite beyond the ordinary, and suggest new possibilities and new meanings in poetry. It is his main object to give his already established friends a deeper sense of the musical intention of his pieces. The book contains the much discussed “War Poem,” “Abraham Lincoln Walks at Midnight”; it contains among its familiar pieces: “The Santa Fe Trail,” “The Firemen’s Ball,” “The Dirge for a Righteous Kitten,” “The Griffin’s Egg,” “The Spice Tree,” “Blanche Sweet,” “Mary Pickford,” “The Soul of the City,” etc. =Mr. Lindsay received the Levinson Prize for the best poem contributed to _Poetry_, a magazine of verse, (Chicago) for 1915.= “We do not know a young man of any more promise than Mr. Vachel Lindsay for the task which he seems to have set himself.”--_The Dial._ General William Booth Enters Into Heaven and Other Poems _Price, $1.25; leather, $1.60_ This book contains among other verses: “On Reading Omar Khayyam during an Anti-Saloon Campaign in Illinois”; “The Wizard Wind”; “The Eagle Forgotten,” a Memorial to John P.
