1 Deductive Logic and Psychology : A Tragedy in Five Acts A. B. Taylor , 1935 single work drama satire
— Appears in: Togatus , 2 August 1935; (p. 3-4) A rumour circulates that Professor Peaseblossom of the University of Cram-Cram is the unmarried father of twins. It is a major topic of conversation among students and his colleagues, and of particular concern to the wife of the Vicar because Peaseblossom is a churchwarden. The rumour is not true, but the Vicar's wife is not convinced, believing that 'Nothing is impossible to a man of [Peaseblossom's] Communistic views'.

— Appears in: Platypus , November 1926; (p. 14-17) The writer argues that 'beautiful artistry is not sufficient to make great art; behind it must be some ideal or conception of permanent truth'. The chief office of the literary artist is the 'revelation' of life.
