RABINDRANATH TAGORE'S NEW POEMS

Fruit Gathering

Perhaps of all of Tagore's poetry the most popular volume is "Gitanjali." It was on this work that he was awared the Nobel Prize in Literature. These facts lend special interest to the announcement of this book, which is a sequel to that collection of religious "Song Offerings." Since the issue of his first book, some four years ago, Tagore has rapidly grown in popularity in this country, until now he must be counted among the most widely read of modern poets. Another volume of the merit, the originality, the fine spiritual feeling of "Gitanjali" would even further endear him to his thousands of American admirers.
