PROHIBITING POETIC LICENSE

AS if the worlds load of troubles was
not already heavy enough, some killjoy
has added to the tremendous weight a
matter that should never have been taken
out of the realms of rhyme. The dispute
has grown to such proportions that rusty
swords have been taken from their scab-
bards-if there be any Civil War scab-
bards that have not yielded to the disin-
tegrating process of time.
Comes a story from Athens, Ga, re-
porting an official announcement of the
United Daughters of the Confederacy that
its members can prove that the monument
to Barbara Frietchie, at Frederick, Nd, is
monument to a falsehood."
Speaking of liberty, or the lack thereof
which modernity has imposed upon man
kind, Just consider this attack upon poetic
license. John Greenlcaf Whittier was not
the greatest of poets, but he did believe
that versifier ought to be free to express
beautiful thoughts without being sub
jected to all sorts of rigid rules. For
tunate it is for John that he lived in an
earlier day Then his story OF Barbara
was appreciated for its poetic and philo-
sophcal beauty. People of that period
were not greatly concerned about such
non-essentials as the question whether this
or that hero or heroine trod upon such
and such an exact spot in the performance
of memorable deed. They were quite
content to know that such worthy deed
had been done, and to have it immortal
lied in rhyme.
But that was before the Statue of Lib
erty assumed comparative attributes. 1t
was before the time of bootleggers and
similar institutions. No wonder poetry
has to beg for aims.
Whittier may have thought that he was
writing with fidelity to geographical and
other technical facts when he composed
his famous poem. But what difference
should it make if he was bit Off location !?
None at all except to folks who are look
ing for .quarrels-and there are so many
people of that description nowadays that
it is a wonder there are any poets at all.
1t has come to a sad pass, indeed, when
poets have no liberty. In the good, old
days poets were sometimes, thrown into
JAIL but even there they had world OF
freedom i'll the pursuit of their art In
| fact, some of the most beautiful poetry in
the English language was written behind
barred windows, and among the worlds
greatest poets arc those who dealt not
with facts
Anybody who knows anything at all
ought to be aware of the fact that mag
cry is the poets stock in trade. Deprive
him of that, and pin him down to cold
hard facts, whether geographical, histori-
cal OF what-not, and the result is fatal
it is as though the strings Of harp had
been snapped.
This is not to say that Whittier cared
nothing for historical verisimilitudc. He
doubtless thought that he was absolutely
faithful to historical facts when he wrote
the poem over which certain busybodies
are quarreling. But what if he did no
write under the directions of surveyor
Isn't the poem just as beautiful as ever
After all, it is the mission of a poet t
establish the mctes and bounds of an in,
cident before picturing it in bcautcou
form for the enjoyment of mankind?

The Once Over.
THE EYPTIAN NOTE IN SPRING
STYLES.
BY II. /. PHILLIPS

The Egyptian influence will be the
predOminating note in wOmen's clothes
this spring and sumner. The mummy
gown has arrived already. 1t comes
direct from King Tutankhamen's tomb,
thereby giving additional support to
the suspicion that the tomb was really
opened in the interests OF the Inter
national Association of Cloak, Suit,
Dress and Gown Makers instead of the
British Museum.
The most striking Of the new gowns
is called the Mummy Silhouette. 1t
gives the wearer the appearance of
having been wrapped up in twelve yards
of Egyptian rest-in-peace cloth to be
put away until called for. Everything
is there but the spices. Some design
ers are providing spice atmosphere by
draping a cluster of suppressed novel
cites about the neck and shoulders.
Why the ladies should care to give
the impression they have just stepped
from an Egyptian tomb .;hen everybody
know, they have just STEPPED from some
CZechoslOyakian taXicab remains to be
explained. OF course with some wOm-
en- it's all right. They would look as
if they had just stepped from a tomb
no matter what they wore.
These Egyptian gowns. like the ones
from Persia and Arabia now on the
market, are of many cOlors and bear
curious inscriptions, figures and illus
trations. This makes it interesting for
husbands. They can find hours of en-
ioyment reading and deciphering their
wives clothing.
In the past a gown hasn't meant
much TO a man. From now ON he
can take the dress out Of the closet on
dull evening. fold it conveniently, sit
by the lamp and read all the baseball,
boxing. racing and police court news
of ancient Egypt.
The Egyptian dress is really part

HOUSING EVILS GROW.
Report on New York Conditions
"Shows Tenant Worse Off,

ALBANY, N. Y, December 26.-
Housing conditions in New York city
are worse than they We're three years
ago and progressive aggravation
of the conditions continues, Gov.
Smith was told in a preliminary re-
port of the commission of housing
and regional planning JUST made
public. The committee said a COM
parison with the 1920 report of the
governors reconstruction commission
indicated these outstanding facts:
Rents have increased forty to
ninety-three per cent; factory wages
show a decrease; there is a greater
demand for homes and vacancies are
fewer; rooms regarded as unfit for
habitation are occupied: little repair
ing has been done; sanitary con-
ditions are worse; ventilation is bad; j;
there is unbelievable congestion in
taking money from food and educa-
ton; standards of living are being
lowered; emergency rent laws are
being evaded. Gov. Smith said the
report presents living picture of
homes in New York and it is i'm
possible to escape it's meaning.
Housing conditions presented by this
report show the tenant to be worse
off"
