Monsieur Ripert Speaks
Saturday afiternoon the French stu
dents of ,the University and ;invited
guests from other tolleges, 'together.
with a liberal representa-tion of citizens
of Columbia had an unusual opportui
ity to cmijoy a lecture in French on the
subject, "Au pays de Lafayette," the
.amnd of Layfayotte, delivered by Moi
sicur Fmile Ripert, oficial conferen
cier of the Federation of French Al
liances, with which the University Cer
cle is afiliated, and under whose aus
pices the lecturer appeared.
Nlionsicur Ripert is a most diotiii
guishde writer amd lecturer, his field
umb ig especially the literature of
Provence. in the South of France. The
modei: Department of Haute-Loire
was the birth place of the great friend
of the struggling American colonies,
the MIarquis of 1,ay fayet-te, and just
as the first crusade had its origin in
this regioln many centuries ago, so the
niodern crusade headed by Lafayette
toik ils start in the same region and
from there came the help that was
perhaps essential to the ultimate vic
tory if -the United States of America
in its first struggle with Fanigland.
Numerous lantern slides accompain
ied the lecture, infortunately rendered
defective by the daylight coming inl
through the chapel windows, only part
of which had been darkened. The Un
iversity has cryi,ig need for a modern
auditorium with proper equipmiont for
illustrated lectures by day or nighot.
Several liidred persons were preset
at Nlonsicur Jipert's pr.esentation of
his native regi ion and all were impres';
ed, evenl where complete understanding
was not had.
Mlonsieur was impressed by the fact
that he was a visitor to the same city
where L,afayette was received on his
sec"Od viit just a hundred years ago.
''lh( cerem(icnies of the meeting were
hiatled by Ar. J. IB. Costanzo, pres
idetit of the Cercle Fraicais, who in
troduced Professor Keith, who in turn
presented the speaker.

many of the girls to become jealous.
The mas(lerade daice, given by the

rawness when it is aged in wood.
