As for the translations from English into Latin, Mr. Pulling has made some of them in the manner of Mr. Chips's successful pun on Lex Canuleia. He has given equivalent versions for "The Walrus and the Carpenter," "Little Boy Blue," and even "There was a young man of Antigua." All of which shows that Mr, Pulling has not taken himself over-seriously. He remarks, "The art of writing Latin verses belongs, for the most part, to us of the older generation." And no great loss, our comment. But for the from the Latin we can be grateful; they keep alive the spirit of something which, let us rope, will never die.—D.R,
