Ticket· sales upto date are -far below those of last,year as only about 600 have beendisposed of. Sales at the corresponc:i­ing time last -year were nearly onethousand in number.

Why was Robert .Bridgesmade poet-laureate of &ngland?These are questions with which theaverage, every-day person is hardlyacquainted. They are relevant to the'subj�t of modern culture. They arepertinent to the problem, of the p0-etry of the modern world and thefuture.'During the last generation therehas been a decided change towardsthe creative art of poetry. Vers librehas shouldered its way fearlessly intothe foreground and has called the at­tention. of the critical world to thefact tha t the poets must be heard..There is a school of poets now flour­ishing in England and Ireland whoseworks show the marks of deservedimmortality. Wilfred Wilson Gibson"John Masefield, James Stephens, JohnDrinkwater-their very names bringto the fortunate man who has read inthem a warm feeling, an emotion akinto inspiration. They are inspired,these "Georgian" poets; they have dis­tinct and worthy messages to reportto the cultured world. In fact, allindications are that there wUl be soona great renaissance of poetry, a com­plete change in the attitude tctRardpoetry, a great, noble mass of work�t will go sounding down the futureages.In the American colleges the move­ment recently has eben started to Iinew conception of poetry. Princetonsecured the pseudo-Tennysonian .Al­fred Noyes as a vistting lecturer onthe subject of poetry. A Han:avrdPoetry club has been founded and hassucceeded in producing a wealth ofrieb materiaL Mr. Braithwaite is theeditor of a volume of collegiate versesoon to be published in the East. ThePrinceton book of undergraduate vers­needs no comment. And so on, �Uthrough the colleges and universitiesof the East. But the Middle Westhas not been so fortunate. No onecan remember when the Professor ofPoetry was last at the University ofChicago.However, a metamorphosis is nowunder way. The Unievrsity is mak­ing an effort to secure Howard Hum­ford Jones as an instructor in poetry,to have charge of several definitecourses. Another plan is to have aseries of lectures presented next year,a series similar to that now beingundertaken by Poetry Magazine atthe Chicago Littie Theater, a series ofreadings and talks by prominent poetsintended to bring home to the mem­bers of the University community the. ,":(-r _.rI.1-�, .. - .- importance and the worth of 1Dodemverse.Finally, then, the Poetry club of theUniversity of Chicago! It is not alarge organization, nor has it yet theidignity of years. weighing on its shoul­ders. But no one 'will deny it a placein the University community, a placeas important as that of the ChicagoLiterary Maszazine. for f'I�ample, orthe various sub rosa .literary groups.It intends seriously to pursue thestudy of good poetry, to foster thatfine art with all its power', to form agroup in which the various writers ofverse may associate and derive aidfrom that association. It will dependfor its existence on those membersof the University who find poetry oneof their primary itnerests; and thereis no doubt but that it will receivemerited support on the part of thefaculty and the student body.It is a full step forward to themovement for a true spirit of cultureat the Unifersity. :May it help, asMiss Monroe wishes, the general ap­preciation of poetry! May it eventu­ally succeed in persuading this stolidUniversity public that a love of po­etry means the enrichment of life,that beautiful verse is being createdevery day, that local talent is not me­diocre but rather something of whichto be truly proud!

The observation of this facthas a certain importance for the Am­erican teacher; it brings home to himmore 'precisely that many of the mis­takes. his students make are due moreto the fact that they are Americansthan to carelessness or ignorance onthe part of individuals, and makes himrealize more clearly bow enormouslydifficult it ' is to effect a total changeof speech habits, as is necessary inpassing from English to French orcontrariwise.They are using the Direct Methodfor teaching the modern languages;it is the official method. ' It is �s­sible 'to have an official method in acountry where the whole system ofhigher education is directed by a' min­ister of Public Instruction, but notalways practicable to put it rigid:ly in­to practice. 50 it is there. Horwever,it works well with the right teacherand I visited a class of boy;S, aged16 to 17, who understood eaisly pas-:'sages read aloud frqrn the Daily Mail(it sounded like uTelty'Mell" usually),and discuss�d, with peasure some ofthe bette�, known ,EnugJiStb lyrics.But. it was their sixth year of En�­Iish, and I am not sure that an Eng­lish fri�nd would �ve understood a:­ways what they said, ·without chapterand verse to guide him. 'They wrote very well indeed, andwith ad excelent vocabulary. TbeEnglish test in the examination forthe baccalaureat that June! was - tocompose a conversation between anEnglish soldier and a French comradeas they lie wounded, .side by side, ina' hospital:· The topic was congenialto the lad wbose paper I saw. Hisbrother, only a little older than beand still under military age, had vol­unteered and was in training at. Saint­Cyr; and he knew that it would be histurn in another year if the wac con­tinued. His English was quaint some­times and the soldier .slang some­what twisted, but his meaning wasevident and the spirit of the ententecordiale, as well as signs of the directmethod, abounded.It was my wisb to visit a class ofbeginners in Engli.sh in the samelycee, but the Instructor declined tohave me; perhaps be did not wantmy American .accent to be heard in aclass where only Pure English of En�-land was taught. -In the Spanish class that I attended-it had been running six mcnths-s-theresults as to conversation and pro­nunciation seemed excelent, much bet­ter than in a class of Americans afterthat length of time. Work was basedon pictures representing Spanishscenes of city and country life, andthe students had an aston;shinglylarge vocabulary. The profesor as­cribed this to the fact that the classhad learned by heart a number offables, which he said was an excellentI way of acquiring a vocabulary. WhenI J interviewed" one of the boys afterclass, however, he had a different ex­planation. "It is very easy," saidhe; "you just tack an a or an 0 to the..• , I, �, . COMMISSION REPoRTS •.DECISIONS ON CASESPenalties Are In8ietecl· In Four Stu­dents - Ins�udor Will Dec:ideOrganization Convinced That EYerIncreasing Severity Is Necessary.By Buell Q. Patterson.The Honor commission desires tosubmit the following report of itswork for the year 191:Case ::'6. In a class of English IPa young man was found in the actof turning in as his own work a story ,from an old magazine. He 'was Con­victed, and dropped from the Univer-. sity uneonditionally.Case 37.

This was the case of afreshman who .submitted a themewhieh consisted mainly of unacknowl­edged quotations. As this was a firstoffense and was clearly a case ofmisunderstanding the. assignment,· itwas referred for settlement to the in­structor .:Case 39. In English III a studentwas convieted of habitual· plagiarism.In his case, the facts that he was an'advanced student and that the cheat­ing was obviously intentional, workedagainst him; credit for all of his. work of the .current quarter was can­celled; he was suspended from theUniversity and made eligible for re­entrance only at the beginning of thespring quarter, and with the permis­sion of the President- of the Univer-. sity. 'Oase 40. The student;---after awarning following a first offense,'chose to turn in work copied directly.from that of another. ; Penalty rec­ommended was immediate, and uncon­ditional expulsion from college.Increasing Severity Needed.Consultation with "the deans of theUniversity, and earnest considerationof the matter, have convinced theHonor. Commission that ever-increas­ing severity is necessary in penalizingdishonesty. As the .commiSsion be­c:ome more firmly etablihed and bet-"',ter known, and as the honor senti­ment becomes more widespread, theexcuse of ignorance of the law andthe temptation to cheat dimInish. Itis hoped that we shall soon reach the·point where a uniform penalty of ex­pnlsion in aU uneqnivoea! cases ofstudents who have been in residencefor three quarters,' ,will be the ex­pected punishment.The- Honor c:ommission plans to holdan open meeting in the near future.Criticism, suggestion and discussionwin be eagerly solicited at this time.Every one who is interested In the. work of the commission and in thehonor sentiment, is urged to attend theopen meeting.
