THE CAMPUS MIND
The campus mind stanlds apart from
tther misids inl the world. It is a well

.m11 <i4ired characteristic but is never
theless aimarkel nc. The camipus mii
Is private reitsons ftor the non-com
mittal policy but will it admit them
even to itself. The chief itility of the
plhelomeno.n is the diversion it fur
nishes others similiarly afTecte<l.
Half-hour experiments repay just as
LnV na-ture-stuly repays. Suppose we
ask a student tomorrow morning as we
rush to an eight-thirty if he is fortified
on the subject impentding.
"Havei't cracked it, kid."
Sometimes this is the whole truth.
But try again. A hag of gold and sil
ver il small coins is to be scrambled
for at a forthcoming land sale which
in reach of 41le student body. The
calipus mii is (luite umable to) say lef
initely aid certainly that it canl he on

REVIEW OF CAROLINIAN
The new% staff of the CARoINIAN
under the generalship of M. K. \Valsh.
has beet doing soie real work, as
shown by the February issue of the
magazille-all issue contaiting twolty
sevenl pages of interesting and well
written material. Irom the front cOv
er in pleasing colors to tile back cover
the magazine is in appearance very at
tractive.
"Yol Are tile \Mist" is at ex(tlisite
short pieni with which we ca.o find no
fault.
In the story, "The Sun'Comes Up,"
we have tie mountain story with th-,
utisal "moonshine." The horrible end
ing, the grotesque and weird eleietits
tie witch, the atmosphere, all produce
the desired "k;ck." Ilowever. Touch
stine in thw second night of tihe "Liars'
Convention'' has surpasses aelylhing of
this nature ever pliblished ill the Can
O.i IAN. If we didn't know the author
IeIsonllyli\ we wuildn't believe this hIor
rible tale. \\'e are anticimating read
ing tile third night.
It is gratifying to note the use of new
tlemes inl several poems; the mocki.ng
bird andt(] other birds have been of late
overw,orked. "The Soul of the Or
gan," "The Old Tow,n Clock" and
"The Root of lEvil" deal with subjects
tiot quite so old. "Promise" is an ol'l
themeli which is always Iew; this poem
expresses the thought very artistically.
We fini(l a timber of essays, sketches
and other indeterminate articles. The
essay tin Cable is a well cmistructed
and critical appreciation of the wtork
of this MnaSter of the Cre0le dialect.
The interpretatitn of tle iml1tti of the
University-'"oitllit mores nec sinit
cSss ferts"--is an atp, a to the i
dents to take their plice ill the world
as the alinilli did ill the past to "try
to) Catch thle spirit that led Calhoun111,
Mc)uiflie, Preston and IeGare.
"Nature, Fashions and Immorality"
is nimlern but not ultra-modern. A lib
eral, philist)phical discussion o f the
laws of nature and the application to
man-or rather woman-it is very ill
Icresting reading, The writer suggests
the iniddle cirse ill all things.
"The lir.uning of Columbia" is al
old subject ; ill fact Columbia was
huriied fifty-nine years ago. I lowever.
this is anl histirical event which inanv
c(llege stdents know little albut and
it is well that we should be inf4reildvil
if it even tho we are too lazy to lIok
li) tie stor for ourselves.
We rather like the impressionist ic
sketch of Greenwich Village. There
