The Shakespeare Club held its last meeting- for this collegiate year last Thursday evening- in Gerrard Hall At 7:45 Dr. Hume, President of the Club, called the meeting to order, and after the minutes of the preceding meeting had been read, announced as the first paper the "The German Ham let" or "Fratricide Punished," by Miss Bessie Whitaker. Miss Whitaker called attention to the fact that the German play ap peared about fifteen years after Shake speafe's Hamlet, and, since the plots of the two coincide, that it may have been the latter put into popular Ger man form in order to please the "groundlings." Throughout the play the real Hamlet is left out; for in Shakespeare's play his true character is portrayed by the philosophic thought expressed in his soliloquies which are entirely lackinsr in "Fratricide Pun ished." Instead of the masterly strokes of Shakespeare we find words, words, words. Hamlet's scenes with his moth er and the players are present but are reduced to mere travesties. In "Fratri cide Punished" there are no traces of the grave-yard scene, which contributes so much to bringing out Hamlet's charac ter in Shakespeare s play. The ac tions of the ghost in the two are in striking contrast; in the German play he is much less distinguished than in Shakespeare. Finally, Hamlet him self and not the story makes the play of Shakespeare. The German play by depriving him of his character just ly deserves the name of "Hamlet with Hamlet Left Out." ' Mr. McKie next recited a selection from "A Midsummer Night's Dream," which he did in an admirable manner, causing considerable laughter and much real enjoyment to those pres ent. ' The next paper was by Mr. H.' B. Holmes on a "A Comparison of Satan in Paradise Lost and Vondel's Luci fer." In beginning his paper Mr. Holmes called attention to Mr. Van Noppen's translation of Lucifer which has a rare degree of literary worth. Lucifer was published thirteen years before Paradise Lost, and it' was point ed out that, although Milton may have had suggestions from Vondel's work, yet by using them in his own way and giving them his own setting, he en tirely removed himself from the charge of plagiarism. Lucifer treats ex clusively of angels, while the great English epic treats especially of man's first fall. Vondel's devils don't become devils at all until the end of the play, while Milton shows safari's gradual de generation. . In Lucifer he claims that he is working for the good of God's kingdom, while in Paradise Lost- he makes no such pretence. The last paper of the evening was by Mr. G. D. Vick; his subject was "The Fool in Shakespeare." He began by showing that the fool nature is a natural thing in the race. We find it in all literature from Homer on. In "As You Like It," we have Touchstone,the fool of brains, who has effect even on the melancholly Jacques. He is a mixture of the ancient cynic philosopher and the modern buffoon. Fest in Twelfth Night is the binding link between sad and lively characters. In King . Lear we find the fool in Tragedy ; here he is sympathetic and consoles the king. Shakespeare reaches his comic climax in Falstaff in Henry IV., a character of unbounded brains as well as body, and a great lover of such He is no slave of honor, and clearly demonstrates how a man can live with out it. Such characters are the out come of genius and not of. accident. Dr. Hume, in introducing Mr. Mc Kie, said that he did not believe that oratory is going to die out ; that read ing also is a fine art and should be carefully cultivated. Mr. McKie this time gave a selection from Hamlet, a fitting close to the ex cellent programme of the evening1. The attendance at the meeting was exceptionally large, and all felt that the time had been well spent. In the College World. The University of Virginia has received a grift of $10,000.00 for the purchase of books devoted to Vir ginia history. Tulaue University and the Uni versity of Texas are enthusiastic over the excellent showing- of their respective base ball teams in a game played at New Orleans, recently. It was a twelve inning- garcie. Score 3 to 3. The cable chess tournament held last week between the EnglishUni versi ties, Oxford and Cambridge.and American Universities, Columbia, Harvard, Princeton and Yale, re suited in a victory for the English Universities by a score of 3 to 2 nramoo ' At a meeting- of theexecutive com mittee of the Southern Inter-Col legiate Athletic Association it was decided that the Association would return to the Eastern foot ball rules next fall, because of the disadvan tage and inconvenience experienced from the use o.f two sets of rules, the S. I. A. A. and Eastern rules. . , Owing to charges of professional ism made against several players on Mercer's base ball team, that University has been suspended from the S. I. A. A. It has not yet been determined whether or not the de cision will be permanent. All the evidence of the case is in the hands of the Executive Committee of the Association for their final decision.

Zoology teaches that the hairs of the head are hollow, and contain an oil that gives them life. In clipping- the hair with scis sors, this hollow is left open, and the hair loses its life-giving properties. I have a Machine named the Singeing Ma chine, which removes the hair and at the same time closes up the hollow, causing the hair to retain its life-giving properties, and therefore stopping the hair from falling out or dying, and giving it a soft growth. Call- and examine this machine and have your hair singed. Special attention given to dressing La dies' hair. Cutting done with exquisite and srtistis skill by the old University Barber of twenty years' experience. The singing machine is highly recom mended by scientists throughout the country.
