( M" his recent visit to the State I'ni
ersity of Iowa. Dr. Edwin I Stai -
I buck of the department of philosophy
i and psychology writes:
i "The appearance of Rabindranath
' I agore at the State I niversitv of
j Iowa recently was to ns one ot the
j most significant events of recent
ears. Tagore is a beautiful soul,
j It is difficult to imagine a more rich
i and varied, and more inspired and
comely, a personality. He is a won
derful embodiment of a very old and
J a very high civilization. While pro
' ioundlv Hindu b extraction and rear
ing. he m far transcends the limits
of nationality and race as to be jusi
human ijuiie -iniph. and at the same
time tran see u i It'ti tally . human.
"Ilis comuig v.is a great eent 1
had enjoyed Tagore before in I am
bridge, as he recited, or chanted, sotnr
of his own poems, matchless in their
daintiness; 1 had heard him in
Rochester, addressing a large audi
ence of the religious leaders of
America, and felt their response to
his call for a deeper note of spiritual- j
it y in religions. 1 had listened at i
Harvard along with the ever-increas-j
ing audience to the inspiring series of i
philosophical lectures, since published i
as the Sadbana. Although knowing
Tagore as the poet, dramatist, phil
osopher, 1 was hardly prepared for
him when he came to us in the role
of a prophet. What insight! What
ful program was given as follows:
Duets, both German and English, by
the Misses Lilly ; whistling solos, I
ducts and trios by the Misses Har- '
rington. The residents of the house :
very much enjoyed the afternoon,
also the donation of jellies which the
women brought.

outlook ! What vision ! What force
and power, as he summoned the deeps
of the personal life and portrayed the
dangers to our occidental life of con
ventionalism, institutionalism and na
tionalism. Scarcely since (he (lays
of the major Hebrew prophets, surely,
has a more picturesque or more pow
erful appeal been made to a people
who need the message.
"No one who cares to get the
flavor of human nature at its best,
and to touch the most vital heart
beat of humanity, can welt afford to
miss a chance of hearing Tagore." !
