DEAR Characterization me
through your generous columns to re-
turn my many heartfelt thanks to
Hal Glen for her criticism on
'Seventeen's" first and only communi-
cation from the Dome Of Thought"
But I will not confne myself strictly
to returning thanks. Will first re-
quest my friend to re-read "Crescent's
nothings" Gas she termed it) and find
in so doing a word referring to Mr..
George RS return, and, if not too
boring to her Solomon-like mind,
glance over 'simpering, love-sick
'Seventeen's' golden webs Of thought"
and see if she acquaints her with such
startling intelligence. Wasn't it his
attendance the night of the party
Seventeen" spoke Off
All! we forget so soon,
The early dew of morning
Has passed away at noon.
In answer to the prescription Hal
Glen" was so kind as to advise me to
follow, will simply ask: Was it
necessary for her to fulfill said pre-
scription in order to store her mind
with knowledge sufficient to begin
writing? If so, l will gladly, aye
thankfully, accept said essentials, "
and wait patiently the development of
my inferior intellect or the arrival of
my twentieth birthday. And just here
I will give even wise Hal Glen" a
word of advice, viz: Lay aside lines
Of poetry, disposition to be critic and
apply yourself diligently to the study
of Orthography.
Hal Glen" speaks of ''Seventeen's ;"
having forgotten the long since known
fact, that Downfall of Paris and
University reel'' are zone and the
same" I will only say in answer to
this erroneous accusation. that "Sev-
enteen" knew the contents of that
nothing" prior to its going to press.
/ only give partial answer to Hal
Glen's' or the critic words of wisdom,
as have been taught to respect the
aged" at least until arrive at that
epoch of life when [ can watt with
triumph upon the four winds of high
heaven the joyful news, II am twenty.
For HAL Glen" seems to think that
an age of privilege. 'Tis then, Hall
| Glen" tells me, even Seventeen can
read the hearts of men without EYE
glasses" Glorious man one who
rules and reigns triumphant over many
a fair domain of this earth, imperial
in intellect and royal in possession OF
untold wealth, the heart Of this being
will no longer perplexing be, for l.
then, will be in possession OF its now
hidden secrets. Ali how wonderful
But before I close | would like to
know of my ancient Hal Glen" why
"Hilda" was left without a congratu-
Iation? Didn't she retire gracefully
from the stage of literature before
this lettered frost" gained its sway
Hereafter advise you to be as general
with your..compliments as you are with
your criticisms you may wound the
feelings of some friend of Fame"
And now my friend Hal, 1 suggest
this little piece of poetry:
/ On the sun of fame you may nearest gaze
| And feel the charm of its glory blaze;
| Yet dizzy and dropping you'll tire at last
/ And long for a heart that will hold you last
/ Adieu. remain the same, "simper-
ing, love-sick, SEVENTEEN.
