FLORENCE ECKER T
SPEAKS ON BYRON
Reviews Poet Before Language
Sections of Academy.
By S. R. M., '32
It has been a peculiar thing to
those who have studied Byron that
he excited such differences of opin-
ion in the minds of his readers.
Those who were his most fervent
admirers at first, would later be-
come his harshest critics.
In her paper which she gave yes-
terday afternoon before the Lan-
guage section of the Michigan
Academy, Miss Florence Eckert, of
the Michigan State Normal College,
illustrated this with quotations from
letters and .memoires of Byron's
contemporaries.
Her paper was called "Byronism
and Anti-Byronism in England
from 1824 to 1850" and although
she described this change of feel-
ing, she did not explain it to any
extent. The only reason which she
gave for it was the growth in moral
sentiment at the time.
Dr. Clarence D. Thorpe, professor
of English, who commented on the
paper, stated that practically all
people who bring this up always re-{
frain from explaining the cause. He
said that although some of them
do give the same reason as did Miss
Eckert, that could scarcely account
for it as Ruskin, who was never
without high moral standards, was
among the first to hold forth on the
quality of Byron's works.
Dr. Thorpe feels that something
of the writer's personality which
made him so difficult to live with
crept into his works and that after
the glamour of his physical pres-
ence had disappeared, this otherj
trait was felt in his books.

We value above all things the loyalty of our customers. For loyalty
is something which must be earned-and earned on the basis of char-
acter and integrity. Were we to sum up in one brief sentence the policy
