One OF the real treats of the season will
be the return by Elbert Hubbard OF the
Philstine at the First Methodist church
on Monday night. Fra Elbertus will talk
Of William Morris, the great English advo-
cate OF handcraft in whose path the Roy
crofters are following. william Morris
was not alone a great poet; he was a prac-
tical poet, and gave his ideas life in works
He revived handcraft In England and placed
1t on high plane. His printing house is
famous all through the world of letters,
the Kelmscott editions being as precious
as the Elzevirs or other triumphs of early
skill In bookmaking. Mr.. Morris believed
in the honest wedding of head and hand in
the doing OF whatever task was allotted to
the doer. and Ebert Hubbard is the highest
exponent of this idea on this side OF the
Atlantic. 1t will be pleasant to hear the
eminent disciple on the subject OF the work
Of the great master.
