Mr. Fisher's talk was preceded,by the reading of telegrams fromCharles Hughes and Theodore Roose­velt."It is a party of lost causes, causesthat deserved to lose. The Demo­cratic party from the beginning of itshistory has stood for the limitationof national government and the doc­trine of states rights. The doctrinesof secession, segregation of slavery,the spoils system, free silver, freetrade, all these measures were advo­cated by the Democrats in the past.Has not everyone been demonstrat­ed since to be unsound?

It Is all "oldStmr', to descend into the undergrad­uate, vernacular; it has become greenwith age. For the benefit of thosewho have not witnessed one of theseannual debates, we will once more an­swer the Three Quarters club and itsband of angry cohorts.One defender claims that the asser ..tion that the Three Quarters club is arelic of barbarism is so foolish as torequire no answer. What he reallymeans is that he can not answer thatcharge. The Three Quarters clubwould look a great deal better in thecollege of fifty, years ago; it has no,�1ace in a modem university. Otherinstitutions force freshmen throughsilly performances, but they do, at·least make such an individual and afraternity affair; their recess periodsare not characterized by an organ­ized group of artificial semi-Iunatiaplaying to a gallery of amused spec­tators. They have passed that stage,feeling the pulse of twentieth een­tury progress. But our institutionmust suffer with this unwholesomer�lic of the days when colleges wereconsidered by the hoi polloi as valvesf:>r the surplus energy of noisy boysrather than outlets for knowledge andculture.The defender then states what hecalls functions of the Three Quar­t('rs club. Of course the organiza­tion has done a few worthy things,hut it is beyond the ordinary mrndto conceive of such being called "func­tions." It is sail that the club basbeen known to give parties for theFreshman class. Be sure and get the�ignificance of the "has been known."And what if it did? Is the freshman'class too feeble to give parties wtihoutthe assistance of a crowd of nl')lsy�oys? There have been many Al'­tmnn quarters when th� Three Quar­t(lTS club did not give Pal ties for the Freshman .class, and st.:, mind you,still the class did not fail, to live upto its social reputation."During the Autumn quarter it fur­nishes publicity for all Universityevents," continues the defender. Massmeetings and class meetings evidentlycomprise all University events, if weare to take the word of our opponent.The University has no other affairsworth mentioning, if his statementis true. Would you, a member of theUniversity community, wish to have-tbe outside world know that the onlyI events the University conducted werethose advertised by the Three Quar­ters club?And the club at one time, he remem­bers, contributed t;wards the supportof the Reynolds club library. Weagree with the writer, this is service.But would this service have been im­�possible without the Three Quartersclub? Do freshmen men have to or­ganize in childish unity to express'their unselfishness?Then comes the old, old argument.The Three Quarters club brings theclass together. No doubt it' does.But the identically' same results in afar better way could be attained byother means. Are our freshmen notintelligent enough to make friendshipswithout engaging in communal asin­inity? Must the slapstick be appliedin order to make one freshman brushshoulders with another? Is it Just 'toour freshmen to assert that they aresuch nincompoops that they cannotform lasting friendships without be­ing subjected to puerile foolishness?Freshman smokers, parties, dancesand talks would' answer the purposesmuch more adequately and much moreeffectively. And such activities canvery easily be held without the club;they are held without the assistanceof the society at present. And suchaffairs would have an element otdemocracy; ,they would not be con­fined to a field of fraternity fresh-·men.We are told that the freshmanneeds discipline and that the ThreeQuarters dub will give this. Thisassumption is without basis of fact.We have to be shown that the fresh­men need discipline; even if they do,are not the fraternity houses betterplaces to receive it? If not, whatgood are fraternities doing them intheir days as pledges?"Making the club" gives the fresh­man a certain amount of confidencesays the defender. . Confidence inwhat? In the political ability of hisfraternity brothers? Truly he hasworked for something, but what doeshe get?, He is given the �t andglorious privilege of, making- n�xtyear's freshmen believe that the ThreeQua·rters club is a valuable institu­tion. Thank goodness, they don't anbeliev� it.The defender is afraid that the dig­nity of the Ufliversity will prove itsundoing. Like others of his kind, hebelieves that; a real college can notbe conducted without a considerableamount of noise and hilarity? He hasnot realized that red blood can be ex­pressed in worthy motives as well asin foolish play? Another writer isworried because Chicago is a little tooapt to re�ard football as a deucedbore and cheering as an unrefined ex­pression of the degraded animal in­stinct. If such is true, is that notthe better extreme?The fraternities which have re­called their pledges from the clubare compared with "rats deserting asinking ship." Do you admire an or­ganization that will stick for the sakeof sentiment when it knows that it Isafflicted with something antique,worthless and undignified? Do youadmire an organization that is afraidto face a real issue because of whatpeople might say? And then to finish the whole prop­osition, one writer takes it upon him­self to state that from now on noone should feel himself capable of:criticizing the organization unless hecan suggest methods for making itabove criticism. The writer Is veryimperative. When an organization isworthless and has no functions thatcould not be much more efficien'tly.handled by some other gl-oups, howand why should suggestions be of­fered for its improvement?The Three Quarters club has out­lived any usefulness it ever had; itis a discredit to the University ofChicago in 1916.HEAR MR. KENNEDY.We have heard the Democrats andRepublicans express their views onthe coming presidential campaign toUniversity publics. Today we willhave the opportunity to hear the viewsof the Socialists, whose representa­tive, Alderman Kennedy, will appearthis afternoon in Harper. It is cer­tain that everyone who takes advan­tage of this opportunity to learn an­other-phase of our social and politicallife will be greatly rewarded for hisvisit.COMMUNICATIONS(In view of the fact that the com--munieation eolumn of the Daily Ma­roon is maintained as a clearing housefor student and faculty opinien, TheMaroon accepts no responsibility forthe sentiments therein expressed.Communications are welcomed by theeditor, and ,should be signed as an evi­dence of good faith, although thename will not be published without thewriter's consent.)A Real Honor Society.To the Editor,The Daily Maroon.Sir:-I have heretofore, by a �at ef­fort of will, kept out of the ThreeQuarters controversy, in hopes thatthe members would see the error oftheir ways, and withdraw from thecampus. I am now impelled, by theconstant cry for "constructive criti:­cism", to offer my views on the SUb­ject.Mr. Bowers, in his letter publishedin today's Maroon, introduces a newidea into the maze of thoughts through'which we have been wandering. Hesays, in effect, that "it is generallyagreed that a Lower Junior honor soci­ety is desirable. Ergo, the Three Quar�ters club is desirable." There is oneflaw in the syllogism. The Three Quar­ters club is not an honor society. Itis ridiculous to assame that membersof an honor society can be fairly cho­sen :dter three weeks of 1"esi«fence onthe campus. The members of ThreeQuarters, whatever they themselvesmay say, are certainly not chosen. as.a recognition of their value to theFreshman class, nor because of theirachievements in any line of endeavor.In passing, let me say that in sev­eral instances I have found membersof the society totally ignorant of tb'eI existence of other members-CCthei�brothers for four years to come.", And now for a substitute. WhyI not have a true honor society, with,I say, thirty members, chosen some-time near the end of the Winter Quar­ter by the Student Council, to startwith, at least; and chosen because ofsome definite accomplishments duringI 'their Freshman year? The Presidentof the class, probably, would be alogical member. So would the "highlights" of the Freshman athleticteams.

THURSDAY, NOVEMBER Z, 1911..Miss Anglin in a Bright Comedy. /.By CHARLES STERNwhich presumes alert intelligence inthe auditor. If I were able to deci­pher my program notes, I should giveyou some specimens of its brightlines. I can make out only one or two:Caroline has a physician attend her,because, "to be able to talk' about one­self without fear of interruption ischeap at a guinea," and "No manfeels like marriage before luncheon."Margaret Anglin returns to Chicagoto play the title role with all hertechnical brilliancy and personalcharm. Her Caroline is a great achieve­ment in travesty and high comedy. Infact, as her vehicle permits her todo almost anything she may feel in­clined to do, and as she does every­thing superlatively well, her perform­ance is a rare treat for persons whoappreciate the fine art of acting.I Charles Dalton, who I should pre­fer to see cast for serious parts, playsRobert, the bungling barrister, withcomedic skill . of which few peoplewould have suspected him. His per­formance is splendidly gauged to be anexact foil for the star's Caroline.Of the rest of the very good com­pany, Florence Edney easily takes theIoud in her lifelike impersonation ofMaude Fulton, an unfeminine, eman­cipated sort of person whose mainbusiness in life is to see that Carolineanc Robert are rrt.ppily "larned. MissVivi Birkett, with an overrouged coun­tenance and a Watteau-like sense ofcostume, plays Isabella French, anamiable sentimentalist with an eye tothe main chance. Lillian Brennardplays a maid amusingly. Of the twomen left to speak of, I suspect thatArthur Chesney, who plays Dr. Cor­nish, is the better Impersonator, Buton Monday night, he had apparentlyentered into a pact with himself not. to reveal the nature of his lines. MrJRex McDougall, on the other hand,acting a young man who is happy onlywhen he is sad, enunciates with de­lightful clarity.The usual smart assemblage whichcongregates at the Blackstone on op-ening nights was there Monday, laugh­ed and applauded politely, and did notcall for a speech.The Sociology club wnt have din­ner tonight at 6 in !he Hutehinscmcafe."CAROLINE"A light comedy in three actsBy Will.

I have only oneobjection' to critical formulae of thiskind: They are usually true.To couch the formula in different'terms, one may say of the play at the- Blackstone that it contains a minimumof action and a maximum of conver­sation. This description, however.should deter no one from attendance,for the conversation is brilliant andsophisticated, and the thread of ac­tion highly diverting.For the benefit of those woo readthis column for the purpose of discov­ering th� laws governing the tech­nique of the drama, I will say that"Caroline" is structurally weak, thatinsofar as plot is concerned it mighthave been written as a one-act play,that the development of its charactersis arbitrary, and that its fable is sovery tenuous that more than onceduring the performance, it threatensto break down., In addition to a plot, "Caroline" h8J!an idea which that plot illustrates.The idea is not altogether novel, but80 far as I know, its present appliea-. ,. tion is. It has .been put thus: Theunattainable is fascinating only aslong as it remains unattainable. In,. Mr. Maugham's play, the unattainableis Caroline Ashley, a beautiful womanof thirty-five, whose husband, insen­sible to her charms, has spent the last;ten years of his married life in Indiaand Africa. The lady, however, re­mains in London, surrounding herselfwith what Pinero calls, I believe, aflock of "tame robins." Chief amongthese is Robert Oldham, a middle­aged barrister. All London societyhas decided that upon the death ofCaroline's husband the platonic at­:tachment between, Robert and herselfshall assume more tangwle form.When the news comes that Ashley has, died in far-away Nairobi, Robert'slove for Caroline, having- stuck in theplatonic groove for 80 long a time,. balks "t Jl C!hRnge. Nor does Caro­line find herself waxing warm at thepresent.. She turns to Rex Cunning­bam, one of her professed admireD,who, like Oldham, suddenly diseoversthat marriage and admiration for, Car­oline are incompatlole. As a last re­sort, she tries her physician, whoslips out of the noose sbe bas pre-pared for him by announcing to theassembled guests that the newspaperaccounts were false, that Carellne'ahusband is very much alive. Caroline,seeing in the lie her only salvationfrom .the terrors of old age, verifies.it--so to speak-and, once more be-come unattainable, she again findsherself the center of her admiringvoup.In his highly successful endeavor tosqueeze every ounce of fun out of thesituation he has created, Mr. Maughamr runs the gamut from high comedy toifarce. In fact, for entire scenes, theplay quite loses its sense of char-·. r aeter, and becomes rank trsvesty.
