The modern temper or
that of the turbulent times

the war, is what John Dos Passes
has tried to catch in 'The 42nd

cals and reactionaries.

ASHEVILLE. N C . Feb 28 - The
world famous mountain chateau of
the late George W Vanderbilt will
be "open to tourists for the first time

It is said to be the finest, private
residence and the most perfect ex-
ample of French rennaissance ar-
chitacture in America. Its art
treasures and furnishings are worth
a king's ransom
It now is the property of Mr
and Mrs John Francis Cecil, the
latter Vanderbilt’s only child, who
are opening it to the public.

CAPE FORMS POPULAR
IN EVENING WRAPS
Did the cape collar so much in ev-
idence in spring styles come fYom
America to France, or did it go
from France to America and back
again?
Couturiers of Paris and American
stylists disagree on its origin, both
sides of the Atlantic claiming credit
for the shoulder broadening cape,
cape sleeve and cape collar.
Cape sleeves and collars are dom-
inant notes In evening wrap styles
for the coming season Several cou-
turiers stress evening coats with el-
bow length cape sleeves and fur-
bordered cape collars which reach
to the elbow, taking the place of

sunshine and for easy love, is U1
flesh. J
is from a passage fn
American climatology,
describing storms that follow three
tracks from the Rocky Mountains to
the Atlantic Ocean, “of which the
central tracing toughly corresponds
with the 42nd parallel of latitude."
Dos Passes’ storms are those of
life among the proletariat, the
middle class and the wealthy, and
he projects them back and forth
from coast to coast.
His central figure is Fenla
(Fainy) McCreary, a roving Irish
revolutionary, constantly involved
in transitory love and labor trou-
bles. But other characters are
drawn from the various types of
the charlatan, the go-getter, society
girls without morals, shop girls
and the new woman.
The style, a curious mixture
reminiscent of Hemingway and
Gertrude Stein, follows three alter-
nating courses Part of the story
i« told in newsreel captions, part
In verbal snapshots and the rest in
narrative fashion. The rough and
tumble sentences employ smoking-
car terms so dear to some realists.
As a further oddity. Dos Passes
has incorporated brief biographical
sketches of Debs. Burbank,
Bill Heywood, Bryan, Carnegie,
Edison, Steinmetz and Bob LaFol-
lette, ,

Wilder again writes a tale of an-
cient times in a golden filigree of
prose about a h rotne wham he
calls "Tlie Woman of Andros."
The first part of his novel Is
based upon "Andria," a comedy of
Terrence who, he says, “in turn
based his work upon two Greek
plays, now lost to us. by Menan-
It is then another story in the
ckissical temper of “The Cabala”
and "The Bridge of San Luis Rev”
