This is an illusion. The fact that a book happens to be part of a set should not handicap it in any way. There is a particular set of books in the library with which all students of English should become acquainted. We refer to the Cambridge Hir- tory of English Literature. As an authority on English Literature, it is unsurpassed. Its style is at times dignified and somewhat formal, but it is a readable diction, clear and emphatic. Upon your next visit to the library, look into this invaluable set. is t it While browsing around among some magazines in a corner of the library, we happened upon an article which we think is worth while quoting in its entirety. Robert J. Burdette wrote it, and gave it the name Two Golden Days. "There are two days of the week upon which and about which I never worry, two care—free days kept sacredly free from fear and ap- prehension. One of these days is Yesterday. Yesterday with all its cares and frets. with all its pains and aches, all its faults, its mistakes and blunders, has passed beyond the reach of my meal]. I cannot undo an act that I wrought. I cannot unsay a word that I said on yesterday. All that it holds of life, of regret and sorrow, is in the hand of the Mighty Love that can bring sweet waters out of the bitterest desert—the love that can . make the wrong things right, that can turn weeping into laughter, that can give beauty for ashes, the garment of praise for the spirit of heavi- ness. joy of the morning for the woe of night. Save for the beautiful memories that linger, sweet and tender like the perfume of roses, in the heart of the day that is gone, I have nothing to do with yesterday. And the other day I do not worry about is To-morrow. To-morrow, with all its possibe adversities, its burdens. its perils, its large promises and poor performance, its failures and mistakes, is as far beyond the reach of my mastery as its dead sister—yesterday. Its sun will rise in roseate splendor, or beyond a mask of weeping clouds. But it will rise. Until then the same love and patience that held yesterday. and holds to- morrow, shine with tender promise into the heart of to-day. I have no possession in that unborn day of grace. All else is in the infinite keep- ing of that Infinite Love that holds for me the treasure of yesterday. Show less

As we study the poetry of James Russell Lowell which he wrote prior to 1850 we find in it an undying faith in the good and true in life. Lowell was an idealist and a dreamer of dreams, but he was also a man of action. He saw around him the misery and anguish caused by poverty, vice, and slavery, and he determined to dedicate his life to the overthrow of these evils. He knew that it meant rebuffs and misunder— standing and ridicule, but he was young and full of enthusiasm and courage, and he was willing to throw his life on the side of Truth. His was no mad headlong leap, for he had counted the cost and he knew what it meant, but he also knew the joy of fighting for great principles, and therefore he went into the fight bravely and with head erect. He had studied the lives of the great martyrs and reformers and he learned from them that one man who has God on his side can overcome any obstacle. As we see him throw his life into the battle for Righteousness and give his all for Truth and Freedom, we are reminded of the words of Channing: “\Vait not ’til you are backed by numbers. W'ait not un— til you are sure of an echo from the crowd. The fewer the voices on the side of Truth, the more distinct and strong must be your own.” This was the spirit of Lowell and he remained true to it until the end. Again, we are reminded of the words of Whittier, “If thou wouldst win success join thyself unto some unpopular but noble cause." This Lowell did and in his early works we find this optimistic spirit which says that some- how and sometime Right is bound to win. Lowell was no idle dreamer who believed that these things could be accomplished in a hurry, but he had faith and he had patience, and therefore he was willing to wait. In this paper I want to dicuss some of his earlier poems which reveal his devotion to Righteousness, his faith in the ultimate victory of Truth, and his love for the common people. In “An Incident in a Railroad Car” he reveals his love for the com- mon man. In this he says that it may be glorious to write thoughts that will please two or three “high souls", but that it is far better to speak simple words that will lift up the poor and the friendless, words that will give them a clearer faith and make their better selves come to light again. Lowell was a man of the common people and his heart was with them in their everyday toil. He understood them and loved them. In Show less

At this time, as in previous years, the Faculty had arranged a reception for the students. At eight o’clock the students assembled at the Chapel where a splendid program, consisting of music and readings, was rendered. After the pro- gram Prof. Hendrickson told us that the ladies had charge of the up— stairs, and that if we would kindly go up and investigate, we might find something. Well, we investigated. T he ladies had amply done their part to make the reception a grand success. A spirit of fellowship was everywhere prevalent. No more fitting words can be used to express our appreciation than Mr. Crouch’s, who spoke in behalf of the students: “We are all mighty glad to have been here!” COIDOLENCE.

Show more14 AUGSBURG mo “Then to side with Truth is noble when we share her wretched crust, Ere her cause bring fame and profit, and ’tis prosperous to be just; Then it is the brave man chooses while the coward stands aside.” Lowell brings out the fact that one who stands for what is right must be willing to stand alone and face ridicule and misunderstanding, but he may take courage in the conviction that God is on his side and that Truth will eventually win, for. as he says in “The Present Crisis”, “Truth forever on the scaffold. VVro'ng forever on the throne.— Yet that scaffold sways the future, and, behind the dim unknown, Standeth God within the shadow, keeping watch above his own." Lowell looked upon Slavery as the worst sin of the day and called it the son of “brutish Force and Darkness”. Some of his most vehement poems were written against slavery, and Lowell can justly be called one of the greatest antislavery poets. One of his best antislavery poems is “Stanzas on Freedom” in which he calls upon the men and women of the North to help abolish slavery, and he says that as long as there is a slave in the land no one is wholly free, for anyone who does not become aroused to action when he hears of the suffering of his fellowmen is really a slave himself. This poem closes with the ringing words, “They are slaves who fear to speak For the fallen and the weak; They are slaves who will not choose Hatred, scoffing, and abuse, Rather than in silence shrink From the truth they needs must think; They are slaves who dare not be In the right with two or three.” .In spite of the prevalence of sin and seeming hopelessness of the fight for Righteousness, Lowell had a firm faith in the ultimate victory of Truth and Justice. And because he had a deep faith he had patience. In “A Glance Behind the Curtain” he says, “Truth is eternal. * * "' Her mirror is turned forward to reflect the promise of the future, not the past. He who would win the name of truly great must understand his own age and the next.” And again, “The future works out great men’s purposes.” Lowell believed in the dreams of youth, for he said in this same poem, “I find youth’s dreams are but the fluttering Of those strong wings whereon the soul shall soar In after time to win a starry throne," and in “Columbus” he says. “To have greatly dreamed precludes low Show less

Yet, in the case of most people, there is hardly a day that passes but that we speak or hear spoken some such statement. Who has not overheard a contemplative conversation similar to this: “Where are you going?” "No place. Do you want to go along?" “Surely!” Judg- ing from such enlightened conversation we may well ask where the con- scious aim is. Does such talk denote that the speakers possess a definite purpose? And this spirit of indecision not only characterizes our manner of doing the minor tasks of our daily life, but it makes manifest its in- fluence when weightier matters are being considered. “What are you doing this evening?” “I don’t know.” Or, “What are your plans for next year?” “I haven’t thought of that yet.” Should we let ourselves be blown about by a spirit of indefinitencss? How about it? Are we going to do one thing, or shall we be doing an- other? Show less

Show moreN auosauno’ncno calester and Phalen Luther on our own floor will, no doubt, be interest‘ ing, it they are played. The second team has been no less unfortunate. They had games scheduled with Minnehaha Academy and some second teams, but were unable to play. The second team has some very good performers. Ted Nydahl is a good shot at forward. his team work is very good. Morten- sen also plays a steady game, tho not as handy at connecting with the basket for the points that count. Olson represents the immovable at center; he is sturdy and it takes a man to run over him. He has plenty of fight in him. “jack” Johnson is right there; whether a dribble or a little team work is needed he is on the job. Iverson does some very good guarding. He plays a very steady and consistent game. January 20 we had a game with Macalester. The game was well- played on the part of both teams. Fast snappy playing featured the whole game. Tho we did not beat we gave a merry chase and kept too close behind to give the other team any chance to feel safe. It ended with a score of 20—29. For the Macalester team the Greig Brothers played well. The team as a whole played snappy ball. At one period of the game our opponents tried to put us out of the running by roughing it, but that did not help as fouls were called on them. In all there were 13 fouls chalked up against them, as over against 3 for our team. A. Harbo succeeded in making 6 of the free shots count. A determination to fight and a good spirit was evident among our players. Roy Greig starred for the winners with 6 field goals, and A. Harbo for the losers. The lineup : Augsburg . illulcalesler A.
