HENRY E. HARMAN, POET,
A MA TIVE OF LEXINGTON.

but it is the wholesomeness, the ideal
Of aspiring faith, that gives 10 his
songs their heartening and irresistible
appeal. The poet does not veN his
readers with any symbol of philoso-:
ply, but the essence of a philosophy
inlbues all he sings with conspicu-
Gus and easy grace.
Yet this quality is only pathway
in Mr.. Harman's poetry to the crown
ing heights of his muse where dwells
the god to whom his melodies and
dreams become an oblation. Love is
that god, but sthe poet does not con-
ceive him as the popular and irrele-
want idol of a light-hearteed fancy.
He becomes the master-pas of the
human heart.
Poetry that has SO much deep
feeling, so many charming graces OF
expression in which the rich and var
led sentiments of common human eX-
perience are woven all through with
the fragrance and mystery, the de-
lightfuI companionship Of nature, is
certainly worthy of that wider ad-
miration among poetry lovers which
it is steadily winning"

Lexington county has one son OF
whom she is more than proud in the
person of Henry z. Harman, poet pub
Usher and business man, who though
he has seen fit to cast his lot IN the
city Of Atlanta, where there is op-
portunity for his genius, nevertheless
holds his old home in this county in
fond remembrance and now and then
takes off a few days from his duties
to pay a visit to old Lexington.
Mr.. Harmon is a son Of Mrs. Jane
Harman. He was born in Lexing-
ton, receiving his early training here,
and at one time was connected with
the old Dispatch, being himself the
publisher of the Palmetto Com
pedium, which was produced in the
old Dispatch office, under the tute-
lage Of ''Uncle Josh" Harman, the
veteran newspaper IldIl, WuO Is SllII
active.
Mr.. Harman has not only estab-
lished his reputation as wise busi-
ness man and publisher, but has won
many laurels for his fine verse. Per-
haps there is no more severe critic in
the country than the Boston Tran
script. It is therefore particularly
gratifying to Mr.. Harman's many
friends here to know that The Tran
script has devoted three full columns
of it's precious space to "writeup"
of Mr.. Harman and a review. Of his
work. In the course Of the article
in question The Transcript says
among other things:
elm Mr.. Harman's poetry there is
not an echo, but feeling for nature,
spiritual passion, that makes the
glow in the art Of Sidney I4anier. It
has it's plentiful springlings of pathos
and tenderness and brooding music
The dispatch-news. [volume] (Lexington, S.C.) 1919-2001, 1921-11-30

II one will start the day by reading
some tender poem, its rhythm and
swct tncss wifi soften the cares Of the
entire day Anyone can give this a
practical test and be surprised at the
result. Poetry helps people to be-
come poised. calm and contented. In
this age of restlessness, this is just
what we need. Poetry should enter
life if one would live UP to its full
measure Of happiness and content
ment.
Il have Il theory that the world is
coming back into its own in this re-
sbect People have been lashed into
restlessness during the past six years
by the nerveracking terror Of war and
reconstruction. They are weary of
all the excitement under which they
have lived and should naturally long
for Quietude and peace. That is COM
ing-and soon-and then let us hope
we shall come out into golden age
when real things will count, and not
pretense.
During the time Of Shelly, Keats
and Byron, and later during the life
of Tennyson, poetry was universally
read and discussed in England by the
better class of people. 1t took the
place of idle gossip and had a most
uplifting effect, for during those years
England forged her strongest chains
of power. Poetry makes people
stronger, better, more loyal and its
cultivation is a blessing to any people
and any nation
When pressed for word about his
own method Of writing poetry, Mr..
Harman said:
II do not hunt for a subject or an
inspiration. These must come natur-
ally or not at all. Sometimes face on
the street or the train will suggest a
subject, blossom in the meadow, or
the roadside, a peculiar shaped cloud
or a bar of music in passing. But
when the inspiration comes, it is over
powering and l must write, write un-
til the poem is complete. Real poetry
must come out of the very soul, it
must be felt, it cannot be artificial, it
cannot be made without. feeling. I be-
lieve the poet puts spark of divinity
into every poem of merit--certainly
he puts large part Of his own
aroused feeling.
a poem is 4 beautiful thought,
I dressed in the most beautiful words
! that the writer is capable Of using. AS
a rule, brevity adds to its beauty. AS
an art Of the highest character, all
! %uperfluity must be avoided Clear-cut
! must be the lines and the readers
/ vision! must see clearly the picture
/ that is printed. When deep feeling
can be aroused by the use Of choice
: language, the poets art is greatly en-
hanccd.'
All Mr. Harman's writings, both
prose and poetry, are marked by q
finished style. His charming studies
! Of Sidney Lanier, Joel Chandler Har-
ris, Walter II. Page and other famous
| authors show freshness Of express
sion and deep personal appreciation
whirh will make these papers perma-
nent among our best literature. OF
la.e years his prose work has kept
pace with his delightful poetry, and
already he has fixed his place firmly
in our literature.

A peculiar thing about Mr.. Har-
mans literary work has been that
it is his plaything instead of the SER

Usher of trade papers, having a pow

ton of his time, strictly to the business
out of which he has made a conspicu-
Gus success.
But with an inherent love for things
beautiful, for the artistic and the
poetic, he has found time to sing in
