THE CAPUCHIN ANNUAL (price 2/-) is without doubt the finest annual that is published in Ireland. It is excellently printed, excellently illustrated, and excellently written. For a frontispiece there is a reproduction in colour of Seán O'Sullivan's "Crucifixion," and scattered through the magazine are several of his pencil drawings. It is impossible to mention all the articles that the "Annual's" three hundred pages contain. Alfred Dennis recalls a memory of Patrick Pearse. D. L. Kelleher, arch-regionalist, writes a regional love-story in verse. It covers twenty pages and is in the inimitable Cork dialogue. It reads with the ease of a tale told by a master of whimsical art. Monsignor Lyons makes a plea for Irish archælogy. "Intellectual Protectionism" is the title of a fine essay by Dr. T. J. Kiernan, which ends: "But what ever we may do in the lower realms of thought, and in action, where our wills work within national boundaries, it is essential that in the philosophy upon which we build we should forget people and nation and tradition and local prejudice. This hard saying is Catholic truth. The Summa Theologica is not Neapolitan. The Church is not Roman. Christ is not of Judea." Among the other articles are a sketch of Pádraic O Conaire by León O Broin; a poem in Irish by an Dr. Pádraic O Máille, a Connemara-man in practise in London; a story of Kerry by Owen O'Connor, and contributions from a remarkable gathering of Irish writers, including the Archbishops of Simla and Halifax, Mrs. William O'Brien, Dr. James J. Walsh, K.C.S.G., of New York, Mrs. Concannon, T.D., and many others. The Annual is edited by Fr. Senan.
