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.

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
