The course comes twice a week and consists chiefly of lectures, but (loach Ilaywood prom ises there is a chance that the students will have an opportunity to display prac tically what they have learned. Nationalism Now (Continued from page one) a nee of truth, a return to an apprecia tion of the personal element and a spiritual rebirth, the nation will be crushed. In response to the invitation of Pres ident and Mrs. Campbell a tmall group met with Tagore at the president’s home following the lecture. It was a striking picture that the group form ed. Tagore, wearing his robes and pe culiar head dress, was of course the center of attention, and very close at tention it necessarily was, for his voice was low. On the floor at his feet, grave members of the faculty sat in un conventional Fast Indian postures and eagerly snatched up the few sentences which the sage spoke. The quiet of the room was occasionally broken by the voice of one who would venture to put a question to the oracle of the east. The answer, carefully worded, was always given in a friendly conversational tone, but at first the dignity of the man was too much for even some of the very sophisticated faculty men and women. The moments flew and the time for leav ing came. With that distinctly Oriental grace which is peculiarly the possession of these of the east, he bade farewell and was gone. The university must feel for no short time the impetus to thought given by the Shakespeare of the east, as Tagore has been termed. LANDSBURY TO LECTURE. Dr. John ,1.

Has Succeeded in Short Story Field; Recently Sold His First Novel. From ii trip up and down the coast, Edison Marshall, former student of the University, now a professional short story writer, has returned to spend a few more days on "“the good old campus” as he calls it, before returning home. Ilis long planned trip to the South Seas and the northern coast of South America, delayed this year because of pass-port difficulties, will probably be made next summer. Mr. Marshall has covered a field in his short story writing which ranges from Alaska to England. His first Alaskan story, “Ilis own Handiwork” appeared in the Argosy magazine two years ago. When asked what the secret of his success is, how he is able to place his stories in many magazines, he answered that magazine editors prefer an ori ginal style with plain, simple words. “I will even scratch out such a simple word as ‘obtained’ and in itr place substitute ‘got’." It is hard work and stick-to itiveness that has achieved an early success for Marshall. Figures show that he has written on an average of 3000 words a day for the past nine months.. When questioned as to how much money he ip making with his stories, he replied, “Well I am making enough to keep me out of school for the want of making more. The luck has beet) good lately." While Marshall is naturally re ticent about giving nit figures, the sum >■ ' .. he has received since the beginning of the year will total many hundreds of dollars. The story that brought Marshall first recognition in the Writers Critic was an Alaskan story, “The Black Fox” ap pearing in the Munsey. The appearance last June of “The Missing Seventeen” in the Saturday Evening Post, created considerable national interest in his work. The September sixth, issue of 'the Popular contained a. short story, "The Lost Herd.” Vagabond or Gentle man” just sold to the Aemricnn maga zine, will appear in a few months. j Marshall recently sold his first novel, J which will run first as a serial in one j of the all-fiction magazines. Later it may be published in book form. Marshill is visiting at the Delta Tau Delta fraternity house. lie is a member of this fraternity. Several calls for girls to do house work have come to Miss Fox, dean of women. Girls wishing to answer them will see Miss Fox or Mrs. I\. W. On thank. AS IT SHOULD BE.
