CONSTELLATION3
IN
L1TEU-
ATIHE.
The old Greeks, wore star-gnzers.
They seem betters have loved the sil
ver sway of Dion lion the rule of Gol
den Phoebus. So through the long,
soft nights they dixuned the meaning
of the stars. An soon the Hellenic
heavens wore peopled with the starry
flguros of their Jrenms. Heroes of
myth and legend were by the great
Olympians stain pU on high in eternal
constellations moiuments nobler than
human genius couS devise. And In the
stars was shown purpose not alto
gether satisfactory to be sure, but still
credible and curislty was in so far
satisfied.
In the duller da: of ours are certain
grotesque imitator of the Greeks, who
In accord with aelr more sublunary
sight have turnd their eyes from
heaven to earth. With grosser imag
inations unable to divine- the writings
of the gods, they live sought for con
stellations in the witings of men. They
are the vast army f interpreters, mor
alists, of "readens-ln-to." which ever
accompanies decay of Imagination. The
race shows the rrbikles and angu
larity of middle .ure: It has lost the
lissome grace of routh and th It
poatry of soul, lov. it beauty. Noth
ing is left for us bit "morality." from
which beauty Is vermore divorced.
The stars cannot e understood until
mapped and charted with an "eternal
punK.e" -printed underneath. Liter
ature cannot exist for mere beauty's
sake, whloh in tht golden days men
deemed truth's as well. In all must
be purpose purpose and moral, truth
and ugliness.
Ye gods of Hella. grant us one but
one more great liar! H. A.
THE WAYS OF THE FUESHMAX.
An dnjured freshman walked Into the
red Ink department the other day. In
his hand was a much-colored theme:
"I want to know what's the matter
with that," pointing to a criticised
sentence.
"Well, it might be improved."
"It might be improved! It's not
wrong, then, only might be Improved?"
"Ves."
"Do you mean to say that you mark
sentences that have nothing the mat
ter, but that they might be improved?"
"Why not?"
"You expect every sentence to be per
fect? I didn't suppose students were
expected to do perfect work" sarcas
tically. The Instructor mildly hinted that
that was the object of criticism and
theme writing.
"I can't see that you have any right
to mark mistakes that can't be proven
such by the dictionary or grammar,"
returned the other. ''Besides, It ap
pears Xhat you have given my theme
more attention than some others. Is
that so?"
The charge was acknowledged.
"And you call that Just!" roared the
freshman. "What right have you got
to give more time to my theme than
any other? Is it fair? Is It Just?"
But the second gong sounded and the
instructor fled.
Johnnie had a little lam,
It followed him from school,
'Twaa one the teacher gave him
With his cruel Wrohen rule.
But Johnnie's lam was quite unlike
4The other Iamb, you see,
For Johnnie was lamb-basted
Across the teacher's, knee. Ex.
