lines FROM LONDON SNOW"

When all men were alseep the snow
came flying,
II large white flakes falling on the
city brown,
stealthily and perpetually settling and
loosely lying,
flushing the latest traffic of the
drowsy town;
Deadening, muffling, stiffling it's
murmurs failing;
razilv and necessarily floating down
and down:
silently sitting and yelling road,
roof and railing;
Hiding difference, making unevenness
even,
INTO angles and crevices softly drift
ing and sailing.
All night it fell, and when full in
ches seven
II Law in the depth of it's uncompact-
ed lightness,
The clouds blew off from a high and
frosty heaven;
And all woke earlier for the unac-
customed brightness
or the winter dawning, the strange
unheavenly glare:
The eye marvelled-marvelled at the
dazzling whiteness;
The ear hearkened to the stiffness
of the solemn air;
No sound of wheel rumbling nor of
foot falling,
And the busy morning cries came thin
and spare,
Then boys I heard, as they went to
school. calling,
They gathered up the crystal mama
to freeze
Their tongues with tasting, their
hands with snow-balling;
Or rioted in a drift, plunging up to
the knees;
Or peering up from under the white
messed wonder,
o look at the trees!' they cried, 'O|
look at the trees!'
With lessened load a few carts
creak and blunder,
Following along the white deserted
way,
A country company long dispersed as
sunder:
When now already the sun, in pale
display
Standing by Pauls high dome, spread
forth below
His sparkling beams, and awoke the
stir of day.

Meeting Tuesday
With Mrs. RadfOrd

The Sans Souci Literary Club held
a very delightful meeting Tuesday
afternoon with Mrs. Carlton Radford
at her home on Jeanette Avenue.
Early spring flowers effectively ar
ranged were placed about the room.

LITERATURE of Ireland"
Mrs. F. M. Barnhardt presented an
intensely interesting and vivid &C
count of Ireland, the land of sham
rocks, harps, and pigs; the land of
people distinct in tradition and gov
eminent; Of folk lore and colorful
language: a witty handsome, intelli-
gent people with a very strong spirit
of nationalism. The manufacturing,
shipping and sheep raising industries,
and agriculture help to round out
the loves of those people of the beau
tiful Emerald Isle.
The subject of Mrs. ]. c. Manns
interesting discussion was Synge, so
named because of his song He came
of cultured family of meager means.
In spite of his lack of money and
very frail health, however, he became
we'll educated. AS youth, he was
shy and retiring, a lover of nature,
music and language. He visited many
parts of the world trying his hand at
literary criticism and journalism. Fin
ally, in Paris he was intimately as
ISOLATED with Yeates who discovered
his decided genius. It is said that
otherwise, he would never have de-
veloped his talents to the fullest pos
sibilities. Among his plays which are
noteworthy are "The Riders to the
Sea- Shadow Of the Glenn" olive
of Sorrows" and his most important
one, "The Playboy of the Western
World"
Mrs. Willis Blacknall gave a good
account of Liam O'Flaherty, the wide
ly Travelled, versatile writer. He
wrote short stories, some of which
are Spring Sowing, "The Tent" RED
Barbara" and "The Mountain Tav-
ern." His first novel, "His Neighbors
Wife" was well received. 1.-THE In

and coffee. st. Patrick's was sug-
gested in the refreshments and re-
peated with green candles in silver
holders. Mrs. Radford had as her
special guest Mrs L. G. Kerner, Mrs
S. r. Watson, and Mrs. Jasper Hicks.

standards for their choosing their
lifes work. The talk was interspersed
