The meeting of the Literary Club 011 Wednesday evening, Oct. 28, was given to the study of the first live books of the Greek epic, Homer's Iliad. One could tell by the interest shown that each mem ber present had read a translation of these books beforehand and was prepared to listen intelligently to the papers and discussions given. To begin the program Miss Julia White gave a well-prepared paper on "The Religion of the Greeks," which had the following quotation from the Odyssey as its text: ''While in the palace of Olympian Jove, The other gods assembled, and to them The father of immortals and of men Was speaking. * * * * 'How strange it is that mortals blame the gods, And say that we inflict the ills 1 hey bear, • When they, by their own folly and against The will of fate, bring sorrow on themselves!"" Mary M. Hobbs was to point out the interesting features of Book 1. Aside from doing this, she sur prised the club with a unique and interesting introduction, bringing out among other things, the value of the study of Greek literature, whether from the original language or a translation. l'rof. Montgomery then told the story of Book 11. and read some of the beautiful similes from thai Book. He also called attention to the character of Tliersites, who is used by Shakespeare in Troilu* and Cressida. "All others took their seats and kept their place; THE GUILFORDIAN Thersites only, clamorous of tongue, kept brawling." Mary M M. Davis gave a review of Book J IT. interspersed with readings by Prof. Davis. The de scriptions of the Greek heroes were among the selections which he read, and one felt the vividness of Homer's lines. Since it was then time for ad journment, Books IV. and V. had to be postponed until the next meeting. Owing to the disturbing noises issuing from the Students' Parlors, the club was obliged to change its place of meeting to a quieter part of Founder's Hall.
