Living in New York We OF course
cannot escape taking municipal gov
ernment as synonym for lowbrow.
and He &c net believe we would feel
differently about it were w1EfiS
dent Of Boston. We have no quarrel
with the inclusion OF Kipling and
Socialism in the low -highbrow list, or
OF Thackeray, golf and Theodore
Roosevelt.
We smiled when we came 10
euchre, down in the high-lowhrow list,
and wondered if they really believe in
old Boston that anybody plays euchre
nowadays. The sense in which pitch
is included as a synonym for low
brow mystifies us completely. Only
Boston would deny George NJ. Cohan
place in the high-lowbrow list. And
why does inherent sin appear as
highbrow or as any one of the other
three shadings?

as the opposite of the figure his
photographs suggest. The pictured
face is stern, almost hard in some
cases, with every indication of a
gruff nature, tolerating no Iightness,
and ever ready with biting comment.
Far from this characterization is
the real man. Meeting him becomes
shock of the pleasant sort unless
you already know how unlike the
traditional "dour Scot" he really is.
Very cheerful, with a boyish look
oil enjoying the world. and laughing
with 1t, McFee is almost never with
out a smile lurking in the corners
oil his mouth, ready TO spread over
his face at the least excuse. His
hearty handclasp and CHEEKY well
come, as well as his easy conversa-
1on, make him one of those rare
people whom you feel you have al
ways known after the first few
words are exchanged.
Time for reading has naturally
been plentiful in life like McFee's.
and he has indeed taken advantage
oil II. His taste is catholic, and in
the books he carries with him on
his small bookshelf are found a di-
versity of titles. Plutarch's Lives
has always been favorite of his. and
among the others he finds valuable
as friends and companions there is
great latitude of subject and treat
ment. Books on the sea are particu-
larly well known to him. He can
comment at random on any number
OF them, easily selecting the ones he
considers best.
AS to the facts of his life, McFee
was born on the ship Erin's Isle.
he was educated in England, where
he earned his certificate. This edij-
cation, by the way, has not been
all mechanical by any means. The
early connection with the London
literary world was part. while an
other side is shown by his complete
mastery of two languages besides
his own. Later on in life NcFee
AFFILIATED himself with the United
Fruit Company. but when the war
broke out he went back to England
and tried to join the army. Re-
fused there, he succeeded in getting
into the navy and became again an
engineer on the Mediterranean.
About this phase of his life he is
very reticent. After the war wa.
over he came back to this country
and the United Fruit Company, in
whose service ne is now chief en-
gineer.

" the collection OF b. l.. Us work
L that has been published by
Enopf under the title of THE So
Called Human Race" we found an
interesting list of synonyms for the
terms highbrow and Iowbrow clipped
by a contributor from a Boston
paper.
Highbrow: Browning, anthropol-
ogy, economies, Bacon, the string
quartet, the uplift. inherent sin. Glib
bon, fourth dimension, Euripides.
"eyether," pate de fois gras. lemon

bonds, gin rickey. Theodore Roose-
welt, chewing gum in private.
High-lowbrow: Musical comedy,
euchre, baseball, moving pictures,

w. Chambers. purple socks. chewing
gum with friends.
Lowbrow: Laura Jean Libbey,
ham sandwich, haven't came. pitch,
] and her, melodrama, hair oil, the
Duchess. beer. George NJ. Cohan. red
flannels, toothpicks, Bathhouse John.
chewing gum In public.
Any such list invites violent dis
sension. Perhaps we are obtuse. but
we can see no reason why lemon
phosphate should be synonym for
bighbrow. Gfbbon is not synonym
for anything. but obsolete. "Eyether"

1t was as long ago as 1874, when
Emerson published the second series
of his essays, that the first call was
issued to the poets of the United
States TO take the stuff for their
songs out of the environment in
which they were born and lived. Some
time after Whitman obeyed that call,
a little too self-consciously for the
good of his work.

We enjoyed the humor of that situ-

of it. but aside from that we cannot
feel that he gets under the skin of
Blayds or of anybody else in the
play. The younger daughter of the
