Moorhead News
ON WALTER SCOTT

The teachers attending the Institute
now in session at the normal Joined
with the students of the school this
morning in the chapel exercises, which
were conducted by President Weld,
who at the close introduced G. w. G..
Hyde OF Minneapolis. DIR. Hyde Is the
conductor of the institute now being
held for the rural teachers of Clay
county. For his subject he preferred
that it be called A Talk on Sir Walter
Scott.
The speaker captured his audience
at the start by telling a good Scotch
story which defined what hodge podge
was and its application to the talk
he was going to give the students and
teachers present. Concisely he told
something about the early life and
education OF Scott and how his in
born love of literature and aptness to
write verse demonstrated itself. To
illustrate points he desired to send
home, DIR. Hyde was profuse in the
use of quotations from the earlier and
later works of Scott. He quoted his
first poem, which was inspired by a
thunderstorm, n he used many lines.
from Marmion and The Lay of the
Last Minstrel, etc. The doctor prorni-
nently demonstrated that he is pos
sessed with a remarkable memory and
readily remembers what he reads. He
said the lines of Scott in many of his
poems were like music to him and he
gave memorized readings to illustrate
that point. Interestingly DR.. Hyde re-
ferred to SCOTS historical novels and
his views on the reading Of such
works, and he cited several
other books which his readers
ought to be familiar with. He closed
by saying that the works of Scott were
elevating in thought and the reading
of them left a good taste in ones
