Brann. Maine's voters liked Bale's defense: "I am probably the most outspoken advocate in Maine of President Roosevelt's foreign policies.

Magic, which devout Catholic Chesterton wrote in 1913, preaches religious faith through tricky supernaturalism. A conjurer's magic confounds, and in one case deranges, a roomful of skeptics-worldly priest, agnostic doctor, materialistic U.S. businessman.
