NOTES

Mr. Ezra Pound, the Foreign Correspondent of Poetry, is the author of Poems—(2 vols.) and Cathay, and the translator of Sonnets and Ballate of Guido Cavalcanti (Elkin Mathews, London.) Mr. Pound early won scholastic distinction for his studies and translations of poetry in early Provencal, Anglo-Saxon, and other languages no longer in common speech, and usually too much neglected. The sources of Near Perigord are explained in his article.

Mr. John Drinkwater, one of the younger English poets represented in Georgian Poetry, 1911-12, is the author of Poems of Men and Hours and Poems of Love and Earth (David Nutt.)

Miss Grace Fallow Norton, of Woodstock, N. Y., author of Little Gray Songs from St. Joseph's and The Sister of the Wind (Houghton Mifflin Co.), will soon publish another book of verse. Miss Katharine Howard is the author of Poems, and of Eve and other symbolic dramas (Sherman, French & Co.).

Mr. Hermann Hagedorn, of Fairfield, Conn., Mr. Richard Butler Glaenzer, of New York and Bermuda, and Nancy Campbell (Mrs. Joseph Campbell) of Dublin, have appeared before in recent issues of Poetry. J. K. Wetherill (Mrs. Marion Baker) is on the editorial staff of the New Orleans Times-Picayune. Miss Mary Carolyn Davies, of Berkeley, Cal., has contributed verse to various magazines, and Mr. H. C. Long is a Pittsburgh poet.
