In studying the literature of the present day,
which the hoi polloi accepts almost blindly as good'
literature, one cannot wonder at its inferiority. Of
course 'there are great American. writers, but these
are looked upon and classified as eithler pagan or too
sensuous, and unfortunately the American public is
barred from reading "that sort of stuff." On look-
ing around for good reasons as to why such writ-
ers are really great, it is to be found that the thing
which impresses one most is not their literary and
rhetorical ramblings but that their writings are the
serious thoughts of men who doubt and wonder at
the most extraordinary things of life. They write
because they see back of all a hidden thing; they
break through -the superficialities of life. They
know that life's only riddle is life itself. But un-
fortunately, the tendency of modern writers is to
overlook the importance of philosophy in literatulre.
There are many present day authors who regard
philosophy as useless and mere rubbish. And in so
far as/ they ignore the philosophical background in
literature, they fail miserably.
Most of our literature can not last."' It is too
simple, mechanical, and meaningless. It strives for
nothing, drives at nothing and accomplishes no more.
History has shown that only literature which is
subtle, introspective and reflective, life penetrating,
and philosophical, can survive. Homer, Dante,
Shakespeare and Goethe have lived and will al-
ways live. They dealt with that reflective view o
human experience directed essentially to discover
what is trute, permanent and real-they dealt with
philosophy itself. One can not but condemn ithe
attitude of many of the modern writers who know
nothing of philosophy, and furthermoi-e, do not care
for it.
Somebody started something' when they began
these strikes. The latest is that the harem attend-
ants in Turkey have gone on a strike.' Professors
next? Wouldn'tthat he sad?
We don't blame ,Detroit people for not support-
ing an Italian Opera company.

The studes sat down upon the ground;
About the prof they gathered round.
In varied pose they came to rest
And gave the.deepest'interest-
To autos passing by.
Just at this time a king of bugs .
Whose winter habitat was rugs
Led out his clan to get the air
And have a, change of bill-of-fare
Beneath the sky.

TRILOBITE BILL.
Today's Feuilleton
We were basking in the coolth of the Union
reading roomA and at one and the same time inhal-
ing wisdom from the old ec. book. To concentrate
on the knotty problem we closed our eyes. Some
rude hand shook us.
"'Come awake !" cried Abel Playfair, one of the
golden youths of the Summer session we are unan-
imous in avoiding.
"Not asleep," I aseverated. "I'm thinking."
"Maybe so, but you think pretty noisy/' burbles-
Abel. "Listen! Congratulate me. I'm engaged to
marry the dearest girl in the world."
"Oh congrats, of course," says I. "But I hope
you wont find her so expensive as all that."
.Whereupon he purveys to our suffering ears the
praises of this queen arong women that has con-
sented his piece of ice on the left digit. Then he
breaks the glad tidings for her sweet sake he is
learning to play the noble Celtic game of golf.
"Fine !" we says, interested. "What do you go
around in ?"
