THE CAROLINIAN To one who heeds not the pas sing of the seasons, the March number of THE CAROLINIAN comes as a revelation that the vernal equinox was negotiated as the magazine, was going to press. The bubbling gurgle of the rising sap assumes a plain tive tone in the Music of the Twilight, L. C. Johnson frankly acknowledges the "fuller crim son" that "comes upon the rob in's breast" in The Lassie O'er the Lea and My Lady of Delight. The Greater Love is an episodic narrative that reminds the re viewer of the theatre posters advertising a melodrama dis playing the heroine bound to the carriage of a saw mill while the villain throws the lever. Wealth of incident is here squan dered. Did the author derive his naturalistic touches from Ibsen or Brieux? The March CAROLINIAN is dis tinctly a document of actuality with its spring-tide lyrics, its in terest in the present lamentable situation abroad, as displayed in the essay on Washington and Wilson ( a subject which we should expect an ardent demo crat to elaborate with more en thusiasm), in war brides in When. Spring Comes, the sim plest, and, partly for that rea son, the best story in the issue, and with the ever vexatious liquor problem hauled in by Polier in discussing The Purpose of a State College. Does Polier mean that the University, sup ported by politicians, must in self-defense enter politics? Does not the essay on The In corrigible Ego, replete with the erudition of Carlyle, the pro foundity of Emerson and the kindliness of Smiles,-does not this philosophical discussion stray from its subject in the last few pages, or is this only an iHustra tion of the hypnotic power of a title? The smallness of the amou.nt of Johnsonese between the cov ers of this issue is creditable to the good sense of the coatribu tors. The reviewer does not care to call attention to the de fteiencies in proof reading, lest the retort courteous be applied when the University Catalog shall finally come .to .light. TIhe twenty-three sdlid pages of advertising matter, nearly all of local business coincerns, speak eloquently of the interest taken in the University by Col umbia business men. MaUy this infterest -grow aand take 'sudh fomas to rebtit definitively the oekfstultify.ing sophistry some 4times heand <on the campus that the town, whose elect are here trained, ,cares inaught for the gown. DRAMATIC. CRITIC LECTURES MONDAY Dr., Archibald Henderson Will Speak on Present Day Drama. Dr.. Archibald Henderson of the University of North Caro lina, the noted dramatic critic and author of international repu tation, will lecture on the Con temporary Drama in the Univer sity chapel at 8:15 p. m, on Mon day evening, March 29. This .address is looked forward to by the lovers of drama, and theatre goers generally, as one of the most important and interest. ing literary events offered by the University this year. Dr. Henderson usually lectures pro fessionally in a Lyceum circuit, but no admission will be charged by the University. The students of the colleges, members of all the clubs in the city, and citzens generally are cordiallly invited. Dr. Wauchope gave out the following statement: "Dr. Henderson will speak on some phase of the present day drama, on which he is one of the three or four greatest liv ing authorities. His recent book, "The Changing Drama", which is attracting wide attention on both sides of the Atlantic, is a masterly handling of a vital con temporary subject. The lecturer is, of course, best known as the author of the authorized and monumental "Life and Works of George Bernard Shaw", having become a sort of Boswell to the most brilliant and thought-pro voking dramatist of our time." Dr. Henderson will lecture to Dr. Wauchope's graduate class Monday afternoon at 3 o'clock, on the life and work of Shaw. All who are interested are in vited.
