The subjoned sentence Is not from
the graduation essay Of sweet six
teen" IL Is not from the raphsody OF
the Emerson woman, not from a sen
timental and gushing vassar woman.
1t Is from no other Person than the
sober-minded, conservative editorial
writer OF the Springfield Republican.
For a single sentence it Is a record
breaker:
When on Sunday evening. after a
charming summer day,-in which Hight
clouds had traversed the sky, and
once and again dropped a mere sus-
pIcion of rain, but which at last a
fright and tossing west wind had
cleared OF clouds and left sweet, calm
delicately cool,-when over the fer
tile fields the shadowy forests OF the
hills, one saw the bright golden cres-
cent Of the new moon, with the even
ing star above, declining
In the golden lightning
or the sunken sun,
In which clouds are Frightening,
when the notes Of yireos. song spar
rows, meadow larks and now andagain
a rich and serious strain from a wood
thrush made worshipful the quiet air.
and that repose and content which
belong TO ripe summer rel brought
sound and site into intimate harmo-
ny. so that one would say with the
poet
My willing soul wou1d stay
In such a frame as this.
And sit and sing herself away
To everlasting bliss
In the midst of all this there fell a
subtles sound.-the gathering rush
from far In the western hills OF a
swift breeze. as II II had been held
back, pent up, bnt now must sweep to
the river and the meadow. and bear
Its clear. chill message: It lifted the
boughs Of oaks and chestnuts, with q
sudden grasp. and released them with
signing undertones as Of an infinitely
rich clarinet, and passed over the
grasses and goldenrods with a stern
though sweet caress.
How soulful. the imagery. The
falling Of q gathering rush from far
In the western hills Of a swift breeze,
couldn't be equaled In metaphoric ele'
gance even by the late lamented
Sweet Singer OF Michigan"

Years ago they knew how to per-
suade the cardinals to come TO an
agreement after a reasonable time In
the conclave. The rules OF Gregory
XIV. provided that II q choice were not
made within three days, the cardinals
should be restricted for the next Ave
days to a single dish at each meal.
Thereafter their diet must be only
bread and wine and water. In later
years these rules have been relaxed.
The discomforts inevitably connected
with life In a vatican cell are supposed
to be sufficient inducement to a speedy
election.

The decision OF Judge Merle in the
mandamus case OF the A. & NJ. col

perhaps. rather hard on the college,
