...DING DONG BELL-Walter De La Mare-Knopf ($1.75). Two people-a young lady with a silk sunshade, an old gentleman with an umbrella-meet on the platform of a country railroad junction. They have hours to wait. An express goes by; in the hush that follows its passing the old gentleman remarks: "Fifty years ago you could have cradled an infant on that tombstone yonder-Zadakiel Puncheon's- and it would have slept the sun down.

Marten's ablest assistants during the comic career of the Soviet "Embassy" in New York two years ago, and both he and his chief left America together under the impression that they had been deported. The Department of Labor subsequently denied that the deportation order had been given, and blamed the New York Legislature's Lusk Committee, "which had no authority."

Last year mention was made in my article in the "Bulletin" of the charity work done by students for the poor of Cambridge. The demand for this work came from the students themselves, who felt that they ought to be ding something to alleviate conditions caused by unemployment.
