it would have been much less dan-

him to have called Mr. I. a,

he had used this tact he would not
have laid himself open to ridicule.
Secondly, may I suggest that Mr.
D. ascertain from the Student Di-

about. This may serve to minimize
the slurs made about Mr. L's long

TWELFTH NIGHT.
A Review.
Ben Qreet's production of
Twelfth Night works by simplifica-
tion into' something that is de-
lightfuls eliciting always the com-
ment. "how charming and unan-
noying." Twelfth Night becomes
most completely a romantic com-
edy in the sentimental tradition.
Somehow this interpretation, the
comm ' ttne of course, seems more
Victoriaf than Elizabethan. There

but even more paid him the sin-
cere tribute of admiration and re-
spect that men extend to those in-
dividuals who display true great-
ness of mind and soul.
Elements in Judge Lane's biog-
raphy are suggestive of the life
story of Abraham Lincoln. Born
in a small town, Judge Lane pre-
pared himself for earning a-liveli-
hood by completing a University1
course in engineering. He could not
restrain, however, his natural bent
for law and soon entered the Law
school, and was graduated in 1878.
The young lawyer was soon elected
judge, and "rode circuit" in the
Michigan courts, as Lincoln once
did in Illinois.

Orsino's crazed passion for Olivia,
Olivia s. extravagAnt mourning for
her brother and her sudden fasein-

Greet gives Twelfth Night, which
lightens it all into "merely good,
fun."
Of course the point can be car-;
ried too far. The play is essen-
tially irresponsible, taking the im-
probabilities gaily with no attempt
at pyschological validation of the
nicely symmetrical plot. But a
notable Shakespearean scholar
should be more careful to give its
production the perfumed slightly
decadent odor of the court (whichj
is very definitely in the writing) in-
stead of the full blasts of Victorian
fresh air. Cecil Musk, soldierly and
virile as Orsino, makes his passioi-
ate speeches quite absurd and fan-
ciPM. Alison Pickard, though
thoroughly delightful and inge-
nous as Viola, was scarcely the sub-
tle .witty woman with an ardor
for dangerous experiences. Thea
Holme's Olivia was a sort of Ci-
derella, kindly and gracious, not
the gelf-tormenting arrogant pa -
trician. Ben Greet's Malvolio is
quite too easy too; he makes buf-
foonery out of the whole part, not
