met in New York in 1912 1t was a
no-decision bout, but all the experts
agreed McGoorty won easily. The
bout had extenuating circumstances,
SO to speak. Gibbons was Ill three
days before the go. and the chances
are he wasn't just right. At any rate
he didn't box typical Gibbons bout,
and the Oshkosh boy won handily.
Gibbons has made wonderful strides
since 1912, and is more than likely to
trim McGoorty on points next month
The bout will serve a two-fold pur-
pose. 1t will not only further the
elimination scheme, but will give the

A BRIEF INTRODUCTION TO
 SHAKESPEARE'S THRENODY

In some of the large editions of Shake
 sreare appears "The Phoenix and the
 Turtle"-a threnody of IS quatrains, and
 under the subtitle of 'Threnos," five
 stanzas of three lines each This dirge-
 like poem teens with beautiful phrases,
 but the meaning is singularly obscure.
 Many a lover of Shakespeare who finds
 no difficulty in experimenting the mean
 ing of the plays and sonnets, has asked after reading The Phoenix and the Fur
 tie" what is the interpretation of 1t all. Emerson was puzzled over it. While some students of the English classics and of Shakespeare in particular have expressed doubts as to the authorship of the poem. Emerson among other , scholars seems to have credited 1t to
 Shakespeare.
 Recently woman in Birmingham noted for her culture referred to Emerson s remarks about "The Phoenix and the Turtle" and asked The Age-Herald to
 throw some light on the signification of
 the lines. As the Rev. pr. Evans of Virginia, who for several years was rec
 tor of the Church of the Advent here,
 had specialized in Shakespeare a mem-
 Der of the staff wrote to him and re-
 quested him to give his views and throw
 what light he could on the poem in ques- tion. and he compiled readily. Several we'll known persons of Birmingham S literary set" were asked to contribute to the discussion, but MT. Latady was the only one of them who knew the poem. He responded gladly to The Age-H Herald $ request and his paper and that of Dr. Evans arc presented on this page
