centered around the desirability
of the presence of one or two
political organizations on- the
campus.
Speaker Lang stated that the
joint session of the two societies
would be held in two weeks in
the hall of the assembly. He
named Representatives Baldwin,
Yarbprough, Montgomery and

subject for discussion at the
joint session. Speaker Lang

Readers' Opinions
(Continued from page two)
finds "simply the fact that a boy
and ' girl in a country town,
spent the night together," I
would advise one not to look for
true happiness in life until one
has sensed that abstract some
thing around which all life is
centered and on which all ideals,
for which we work, fight, and
live are founded.
Maybe the critic has been dis
appointed in love and has tem
porarily lost his ideals, for I
cannot believe that one could be
so materialistic , and still find
beauty in diction.
As for the "almighty Liter
ary Supplement to the Daily Tar
Heel taking on the general as
pect of the Buccaneer," I would
say that he who looks for smut
looks not outside his own-mind
if he finds in a passive treat
ment of a beautifully passionate
subject. Mike Limp

with success, except for the ap-
pearance of "only one important
gap that of the Reconstruction
period, when Virginia was bar
ren of great men ..." !
"Because he aimed at contin
uous narrative of deeds, Dr.
Bruce has fixed his attention
not upon subjective aspects of
his various heroes, but upon
what they contributed in action
to American life. The emphasis
upon action gives the book
movement, sweep, and variety.
It leaves it a little poor in one
Plutarchian quality, the presen
tation of intimate traits of char
acter . . . "

sketches must be of uneven
merit. Dr. Bruce is at his best
in dealing not with his greatest
men, nor with his least, but with
those of middle rank.- After all,
nobody can treat Washington
adequately in 35 pages . . "
Concerning those men of
"middle rank" the critic says
that "in all . . . there were sal
ient and picturesque qualities,"
and for examples mentions a
few of the best sketches. Of
the lesser characters presented
in the "Plutarch" it' is said:
"Now and then it can be ob
jected that Dr. Bruce is too fav
orable to his subjects ... But
it is pleasant to respond to the
enthusiasm with which he
writes of men who really de
serve it."
In conclusion Mr. Nevins
writes thus in compliment to
the book, and to Virginia, the
home, state of its author: "It is
an interesting and measurably
impressive panorama which Dr.
Bruce has spread before us. The
reader, as he finishes it, will
