...Fate," however, bear more clearly the stamp of vitalizing human experience. One feels that Mr. Murray is saying something because he cannot hold it back--because he has something to say. And at the end of his bold plea for individuality and self-reliance there comes to the reader a sense of satisfaction--dispersal of a doubt, vindication of faith, or what you will--that is seldom found in modern poetry of any sort. But Mr. Murray is the least skilled of the Monthly's versifiers. Only the persistent reader succeeds in ploughing through the obscuitities of his first sonnet...

Mr. Leffingwell attempts a feat of compression in a "A Song of Resurrection," and leaves his reader in a somewhat confused state of mind. Mr. Sanger collects his impressions of "Iron Ore Mines," and expresses his views about "America's Mission" in something that appears to be akin to free verse.
