BRYN MAWR'S HORSE

RRYN MAWR, Pa, Oct. 1.-The chilly
vain. which ushered in the month Of Oc-
fober. persuaded the Bryn Mawr Horse
show Committee that II would be neces-
sary to postpone today's program. The
hound show was unaffected by tho
weather however. and the exhibition OF
animals will be concluded with today's
I,eeause many valuable horses are en-
t,red In the show Il was decided that II
was unwise TO risk the chance OF any OF
them contracting colds on account Of the
weather. The program for the horses set
Tor today will be followed tomorrow, This
necessitates the Horse Show continuing
another day, and tomorrow's schedule
viii be run on Monday. Although this

the animals at Bryn Mawr. II was deemed
the wise course 20 pursue.

pespite the setback received after four
davs of excellent weather. the show has
much for which 10 be thankful. In past
years the Horse Show schedule at Bryn
Mawr has called for rain most OF the
time.
Comment on the splendid appearance OF
the grounds and the skilful handling OF
the show machinery, which has been
heard during the week, reflects favorably
the work OF the Executive Committee.
Much of the credit In this respect Is
given to r. Penn Smith.

Literary men"-principally in the col
leges that are built to keep them-be-
moan 'debasing journalism" They know
nothing of the leaven of reality that jour
nalism has given literature through the
men 1t has trained. They know nothing
of the very real wish of a good many
ordinary newspaper-reading men that
some good interviewer had been lurking
in the historic background to record the
personality OF some OF our great ones
as they record the men of today. And so
the literary mem aren't likely to be the
least interested in Frank Harris "Con-

journalism back in those far-off days
when Carlyle walked the Chelsea em-
bankment and Browning went politely to
teas. And they might also find an inter-
probation of literature England and a
number of other important matters.
Contemporary Portraits" (Aiitchell

good Journalism. With vigorous, picto-
rial stroke, Mr.. Harris draws each not
able. There is Carlyle. looking "the
prophet; his clothes loose and careless
for comfort not show; the shaggy, un-
kempt gray thatch of hair; the long
head, the bony almost feshless face of
one who has tasted and suffered; the
tyrannous. overhanging cliff forehead : the
firTn, heavy mouth and outthrust, chal-
lenging chin-the face of a fighter" and
yet because of the eyes. "a strong, sad
face, the saddest / ever studied
fearless misery"
Mr.. Harris gives us more than the
figure, more than the words of this
great Englishman. He focuses the sad
despair of his unhappy married life in
a scene OF rare intimacy. When they

PROPHETIC INTERVIEW
WITH LORD ROBERTS
Dead Soldier Once Outlined
England's Present Defenses
~ to Hall Caine

Before Lord Roberts died and in those
days when he was crying vainly the
German peril" he told Hall Caine. the
writer how much he feared Teuton In
vasion. and outlined the very methods Of
protection which have only lately been
put In form. The interview Is recorded
In Hall Gaines new book OF contemporary
European history. THE Drama Of 1856
Days" Uippincott. Phllsdeiphia);
II was then on my way home from
Egypt, whore 1 had spent some days at
Mena, while Lord Roberts was staying
there. On two successive morn
ings I sat with him discussing
the German danger DO you really at
tach Importance to this scare OF a Ger
man invaslon? I asked. I'm afraid 1
do,' said Lord Roberts, You think an
enemy army could be landed on our
shoresr As things are now, yes, 1
think it could DO you think you could
land an army on the east coast Of Eng
land and march on to London Yes,
do In thick fog, of course?' with
out fog said Lord Roberts. After that
he described in detail the measures we
ought to take to make such an attack
impossible, and 1 hasten to add that, so
far as l can see and know. the precau-
tionary measures he recommended have
all been taken since the outbreak of the
war"
'F. p. A." Of the New York Tribune,
has got through poklng holes in the
proofreading OF the Bookman and Is
after the publishers press agents. Here
is what he said about them the other
day:
Ernest Poole's ''The Harbor" is an
other novel that frequently appears,
says the sheaf OF press notes from
the Macmillan Company, which en-
ploys no proofreaders, while in the
nonfction group Edgar Lee Masters
(sic) spoon River Anthology" stands
high.
Everybody enjoys, whether they
realize 1t or not, says a Century Com
pany advertisement, what technique
means. Even IL one gets their TECH
nique a bit mixed.
But neither "F. p. A." nor the Tribune
is infallible or pretends to be.
Speaking Of literary press agents, there
are many who tell the truth, and tell 1t
not only accurately but brilliantly, far
more, in fact, than the theatres can
boast. One of these is Sinclair Lewis, of
the George II. Doran Company. Writing
of Buck Parvln and the movies, he says;
"In ordinary cases the filming of a
novel is of no literary Importance but
Buck Parvin' is the first novel written
for that enormous audience-the movie
fans the first story in which a skilled
craftsman satisfies the curiosity of the
fans about the romantic mystery Of film-
making. Hence this story about movies
and, In turn, the movies made from the
book compose what is perhaps the first
effort to wed the old art OF novels and
the new art of movies"
There is a reason for Mr. Sinclair's
perfection as n press agent. He IL also
a novelist of some distinction. His new
est book is 1.-THE Trail OF the Hawk" a
Harper's publication.

AS CARLYLE MIGHT HAVE LOOKED
TO A'JOURNALIST OF TODAY
One of the Fascinating Figures Painted in Contempt
rary Portraits" by Frank Harris Reporter,
Critic and Philosopher

and walked on, the tears were running
down his face"
All these portraits are not so fine, so
noble For Harris had lesser men to
deal with and he dealt with them truth
fully. Indeed, he dealt so truthfuly, he
grubbed so at their very minds, that
often the portrait he gives Of himself
fattering Renan, for instance, hiding his
contempt for Maeterlinck's platitudinous
opinions on literature or his ludicrous pre-
tentions in boxing-is far from pleasing.
But at any rate he let's us see the truth
even OF his reporting methods.
Harris sees deep and writes brilliantly.
He gives us the tragedies of de Maupas-
SAINT, Verlalne. Davidson, Middleton and
Wilde with singular clarity and power.
He makes us see that final, epic perver-
sity of Wilde, his refusal to avoid trial,
verdict and ruin, his assurance that his
life was TO be as artistic In its tragic
completeness as his ''Salome."

Sob writers on the San Francisco press

sensational writing. She snned griev-

she emerged better. purer, nobler, with
calm content, a livable philosophy

20. Porque causa de la mala cleo
ci6n para ell emplazamiento de la pre-
sa es practicamente inevitable ell SER
vir aguas turbias durante largos per1o-
dos de tempo en- cada a1o.
30. Porque las maquinas, que son

mente estan proximas su mayor edad
sino que resultan va impotentes para
sostener ell gasto Ell las horas de ma

40. Porque la falta de preston que
tiene hoy eel Acueducto crea un verda-
dero conf1ictO para los vecinos de la
parte alta de la Ciudad imposibilita
la eficacia del scrvicio de incendios.
Atendiendo a 6stas razones investi-
gamOs 10 que correspondence hacer pa
