The real climax of this story occurs a thousand feet or so in the air. “A Flight,” by Edith Orr, is an aeroplane story, the scene of which is laid at one of the great aviation meets in France and concerns a noted airman and a society woman who insists on going up for a flight. “ Jerry,” by Barry Benefield, is the best description of a Southern lynching that we have ever read-a story that is one continued thrill. Mencken continues his trenchant, satirical articles on “ The American.” In August he will describe the American’s language-the form of speech of the strange individual he has picked out as the typical American. In the midst of the struggles between the followers of the new creed and the adherents to the old gods, a charming love story is woven. “The Fellowship Oath,” by Ernest Starr, takes us back to the earliest days of Christianity in Northern Europe.
