THE HEYDAY OF AMAZONS
In these days when it is no longer
uncommon to read of a man as the
Ihusband of his wife, it is a little un-
usual to find anyone who has the cour-
age to say that the present-day liberty
of woman has never equalled that
which she enjoyed in the ancient days.
Yet, that is just exactly what Rev.
Alexander J. Carlyle, Litt. D., lecturer
in politics and economics in University
college and Lincoln college, Oxford,
said to a group of students and pro-
fessional men in Boston a few nights'
ago, according to the Boston Eve-
ning Transcript.
He explains himself by. referring to
the seventh century when Romanj
Stoics were expressing the new idea
of liberty, and, that almost simultan-
eously their contemporaries, the Ro-
man lawyers, were freeing the slave,
the child, and the woman from the
bonds that held them to their masters.
Dr. Carlyle hold his audience that
"it was probable that woman had not
been so completely emancipated in
modern days as she was between the
first and fifth centuries of the present
era, when the great transition from
convention to liberty may clearly be
traced.".. What the noted scholar ex-
actly means by this is a bit hard to
determine unless one goes further In-
to his doctrine of liberty as he ex-
pressed it in this same speech, to the
effect that "it never existed in full
and never will."
In hisrevelations of the past ages,
it is a noticeable fact that he neglected
to mention King Solomon, who has
never recorded as being known by the
name of anyone of his thousand wives.
Nor did Dr. Carlyle mention Henry
the Eighth,rthe terrible "bluebeard"
of history and the many others whom
he typifies, in an exaggerated manner
to be sure. Nor is it absolutely neces-
sary to delve into the archives of the
oldest of ancient history to find male
despots ruling with the iron hand
over their harems.
That thesegood old days are gone
forever may be evidenced on all sides
in our modern American woman who
has a career of her own, wields the
same political power and has the same
political rights as her husband, and,
in a few' cases, has been known to
force the man shetmarries to take her
name. No, though the Idea is an admir-
able one, a considerable reversion to
the past would be necessary to make!
it come true.
The Prince is gone -there must
now be a wild scramble for features
to fill up the metropolitan papers.
Please do not take away our
Northern Lights, Mr. Steffansson.

the Benediction of Karg-Elert, and
Sportive Fauns by d'Antaiffy. The
opening number of the concert will

MRS. IAIER'S PROGRAM I
Mrs. Maier is opening the Faculty
Concert this afternoon with Percy
Grainger's familiar Irish Tune from
County Derry. The theme is a richly
lyric folk song, filled with a wistful,
persistent melancholy. The basic tune
surges and retards through the work,
quite in contrast to Grainger's usual
i pop-gun style.
The Bach Italian concerto, in con-
trast, represents the composer's most
florid, technical style. It is the kind
of niece an artist is never certain of,i
and even the greatest have been
known to make memory blunders over
it.
,Ganz's "The Pensive Spinner" and
the famous Mendelssohn-Liszt "On
Wings of Song" are highly classical -
mould, the one with the conventional,
maddening whir of the wheel in th
right hand and the melody in the
bass, the other with its poetic-
"grandeur" is the customary word.
The next group, to become definitely
modern, consists of Cervantes' five
Cuban miniatures. Lasting only about
a minute each, they catch all but suc-
cessfully the fickle theatric moods
of the southern temperament: jeal-
ously, a puppet-like funeral, curiosity,
and finally two wild syncopated
danzas.
Finally, Mrs. Maier will play the
popular Chopin Ballade in A flat. It
is gigantic,rcollosal-whatever you
will-and firmly satisfying to both the
pianist and audience; it is a gesture in
the grand manner, heroic, solemn and
gorgeous.
MR. WARING'S LITTLE BAND
A review, by Valentine Davies.
Tom Waring's Pennsylvanians, who
performed at the Majestic this past
week are not nearly what they should
be. They have quarts of pep and have
certainly achieved much by way of
race, but they do not come up to what
one may expect from a first class or.
chestra. There is nothing subtle or
harmonic in Waring's orchestrations:
