DRAMATIST'S VIEW OF LINCOLN
(Continued frrom page 1.)
the meaning of a true dramatic specta
cle. "It is the rise from the common
level to distinction or high office. All
but the one out of a thousand who
reach high office make a mess of the
thing, but occasionally there comes
along a man who is able to master
his position, as did Lincoln, Lee
and Cromwell. "According to the
dramatist, a situation like this creates
the true dramatic spectacle that chal
lenges the art of a writer and creates
the desire to ascertain the mode of life
and rules of conduct which these great
individuals follow in order to hold
grip on circumstance and swing the
situations that arise into a course that
supports their mastery.
In a discussion of Lincoln as a pres
ident, the speaker said that all the
things of daily routine never came
in between the great president and the
human element that made this daily
routine a necessity. "It is a significant
fact," continued the poet, "That Lin
coln, a very able executive, bound up
with the duties of carrying on a great
war, never lost sight of the value of
the human individual."
The lecturer's address centered
around one of the traits that is brought
out so clearly in the war president's
life in the drama, "Abraham Lincoln."
Here he is portrayed as a man who
considered every man of the whole
Southern army an American and held
the lives of the Southern soldiers as
sacred as those of the men of the
Union army. According to the speak
er, it was this sympathetic and kindred
feeling between the great Lincoln and
his brother soldiers that caused him
to be loved and respected and upon the
love and respect be founded obedience
and discipline that saved the nation
in a crisis and at the same time
established his rightful title to great
ness.
"Lincoln"', said Mr. Drinkwater, in
his closing remarks, "was determined
that no one should say that be made
a mess of it."
THE RIM OF HEAVEN
By Geneva Higfill '26
It was twilight.
Down through the western sky
Sped Apollo in his flaming chariot,
Slowly, darkly slowly,
Rose great hills of clouds
To meet his coming
And I watched.
It seemed for an instant that he
Would ride straight over the hills
Without one backward glance.
But, No! As he touched the very rim
He paused.
For a moment the hills changed
From darkness to flaming gold.
Over all the world fell a deep hush,
And a great halo of light.
Into my soul it flooded,
Lighting all the darkness there,
And I could see beyond those hills
Into the great unknown.
Then it was gone;
Apollo was gone
In his chariot over the hills, over the
Rim of Heaven.
We suspect a lot of fellows are sur
prised that they get along as well as
they do.

looking forward, are now
experimenting with voltages
exceeding a million.

Dawn —the slumbering city awakens and calls for
electric current. Many miles away the call is
answered. A penstock opens automatically, releas
ing impounded waters; a water turbine goes to
work, driving a generator; and electric current is
soon flowing through wires over the many miles to
the city. This plant starts and runs itself.
Power plants with automatic control are now
installed on isolated mountain streams. Starting
and stopping, generating to a set capacity, shut
ting down for hot bearings and windings, gauging
available water supply, they run themselves with
uncanny precision.
Thus another milestone has been reached in the
generation of electric power. And with present-day
achievements in power transmission, electricity
generated anywhere may be applied everywhere.
The non-technical graduate need not know where
electricity comes from—nor even how it works.
But he should know what electricity can do for
him no matter what vocation he selects.
