LANIER'S POETRY
(Ocaleean Ensign

Lanier's characteristics as poet
and despite his achievements in prose,
it is as a poet he must be considered
primarily-are such as to separate
him from other American makers of
literature. In the first place, his
poetry has the glow and color OF the
South; an imagination and rhythm,
which awaken an exultant delight IN
the sensitive reader He opened new
possibilities of metrical and stanzalc
arrangements, and Herewith revealed
new powers of word use and combl-
nations in modern English poetry. In
passing, we might mention one form
of Lanier's work, which, although not
usually associated with him, nor ex-
tensively used by him, is, neverthe-
| less, as clever as the works of those
who have made a speciality of it. This
| is his humorous verse. The best OF
the humorous poems are those in
negro dialect, one of which is Uncle
Jim's Baptist Revival Hymn" writ
ten by Sidney Lanier and his brother,
Clifford. The story is told of Geor-
gia farmer, who driven to despera-
ton upon rising each morning to find
that despite his freedmen's hoes and
plows, the grass had quite outgrown
the cotton overnight-set the whole
state in a laugh by exclaiming to a
group of his fellow-sufferers: "It's all
stuff about Cincinnatus leaving the
plow to go into politics for patriot
ism; he's just a-runnin' from the
| grass" This state of things, when
the young roots of cotton were strug-
| Cling against the harder multitudes
of grass suckers is universally de-
scribed in plantation language by the
phrase Sin the grass" Uncle Jim
seems to have seen in it so much re-
semblance to his own Baptist church,
overrun as it was, by the cares of this
world, that he has written the follow
\ ing hymn:
Ole mas'r BLOWN the mornin' horn,
! And he's blowed a powerful bias
Come, Baptis', come hoe the corn,
/ Cause yes nightly in the grass,
Cause yes nightly in the grass.
The bluejay squealed to the mockini
bird, "Stopi
Don't you gimme none Oh your sass
You better sing song for the Baptis
/ crop
/ Cause they's nightly in the grass
Cause they's nightly in the grass
And the ole crow croak, "Don' work
no, no."
But the field lark say, "Yaas, yaas'
And / s'spec you mighty glad, you
| debblish crow,
That the Baptis's is nightly in the
grass,
/ That the Baptis's is nightly in the
grass.
Lord, thunder US up to tn blowing
ground,
Lord, perth up the hoeing fast,
Yea, Lord have mercy on the Baptis
patch
Cause dey's nightly in the grass
Cause dey's nightly in the grass
| Lanier, too, had that rare gift, the
ability to write songs. His "Song OF
the Chattahoochee River" "a Song

A Forthcoming Musical Event

The visit of England's great organ
ist, Gatty Sellars, to the Methodist
church, Wednesday and Thursday,
Feb. 27 and %, is arousing wide
spread interest.
Gatty Sellars, the great English
organist-composer, was born in 1877
and received his training at Peter
borough Cathedral, and from a we'll
known professor of the Royal Acad-
envy of Music, London. 1t was thru
being heard in Switzerland, however,
that he obtained his first engagement
at the Queens Hall, London, concerts,
appearing with Agnes Nichols, Kirk
by Lunn and Sir Charles Santley. His
after appearances in Europe were
with Albani, Busoni, Marchesi, and in
the same series of concerts as Pader-
ewski, Kubelik and DIR. Hans Richter,
etc. Well-known as a composer, one
of his compositions was selected as a
test piece at the National Band Con-
test, at the Crystal Palace, for per-
Torrance by the massed bands of 5000
performers. Mr.. Sellars is son of
the Rev. S. Sellars, his mother being
formerly Miss Gatty, name we'll
known in musical circles through the
reputation of Sir Alfred Scott Gatty,
principal king of arms. His program
is the most unique in the annals of
musical history of America.
