"The French Novel"Subject of

Georges Duhamel'sAddress

Lecture Gtven in French

In addressing an unusually largeaudience Wednesday evening at eighto'clock in Knowlton on the subject,"The F'ren ch Novel," Georges Du-hamel, with his delightful personality-radiating goodness, speaking withadmirable sincerity, feeling and force,yet appealing at the same time by hiskeen sense of humor-succeeded inwinning the large audience over asfriends, and seemed to raise them tothe level of his own penetrating andinspiring genIus.

As l\f. Duhamel entered the salon,the Marseillaise was played, and theaudience rose in homage to the dis-tinguished guest. Miss Ernst, in herIntroduction, struck the keynote to hisgenius, designating him as a. friend ofsuffering humanity, portraying life asD. great painter with generous, force-ful, and moving genius-a great man.His right to the title of "friend of suf-fering humanity" is earned not onlyby his sympathetic writing, but alsoby his work us a physician, particular-ly during the war, when he, himself,cared for four thousand wounded. andcpern.ted on twenty-three hundred.Now he no longer is a practising phy-sician, for he chooses to devote hisentire time to literature.

M. Duhamel believes that literatureis intended to help us understand life.Of all its forms that which bears theclosest resemblence to life is the novelwhich in contemporary literature isone-third of the total production. Thefirst duty of the novelist is to amuseus for we read to forget ourselves andescape boredom, but when the novelisthas succeeded in amusing us, he hasaccomplished but a small part of histask. He must make us turn again toourselves, cause us to respond emo-tionally, and to feel that we are learn-ing, for his great duty is to help usinterpret the world. Incidentally, M.Duhamel divided books into twogroups: those which impoverish andthose which enrich. The novel, he di-vided into five types, preferring him-self, the fourth.1. The witness tells what he has

seen without adding anything.2. The participant tells the tale,

choosing what material he wishes topresent. This is the first step in artfor choosing is the basis of art andlife.3. The author uses elements in life

that he knows; but takes libertieswith time and place.4. The author chooses and trans-

forms. He mixes experience with in-vention in a process of assimilation.5. The author works on a purely

imaginative basis.M. Duhamel believes that the

twentieth century is trying to unite,synthetically, the idealism of theRomantic school with the observationlof actual life of the Realistic school.The advanced students in French

SCHUBERT WEEKBACK TO MELODY

Novembe r 18th to 25th

The National Headquarters of theSchubert Centennial have released thefollowing bulletin regarding the weekthat is to be devoted internationallyto the memory of Franz Schubert.Inaugurated Sunday the 18th with

Schubert Sunday in 59,000 churchesof America, the final festival me-morials to Franz Schubert, on the oc-casion of the 100th anniversary of hisdeath, will present the unprecedentedpicture of millions of people in everywalk of liH! taking an active share inthe tribute to the Master of Melody,who died at the age of 31 on Novem-ber 19, 1828, leaving 1,100 composi-tions to the world.

Hampton Quartet FulfillsExpectationsOld Spirituals Best

The Hampton Quartet who sangFriday, November 9th, in the gym-nasium, more than lived up to ourexpectations. In an only too briefprogr-am, comprising all our favoritespirituals and others which were lesswell-known to us, they dernonstraradperf"ctly the instinct of the Negrorace to sing beautiful harmony. Be-tween numbers, Mr. Ketcham, ofHampton, spoke interestingly aboutHampton, and about spirituals ingeneral.

Srnrttuats are 1101 dying out, butalthough new ones are always beingwritten, they are inferior to the oldones we know. Spirituals-singing isnatural to the Negro, one way forhim to express himself. The spirit-uals themselves are traditional, andmust be sung in the traditional man-ner, but each group of HamptonSingers works them out alone; withdifferent harmonies, which are at-ways beautlful."Go Down, Moses", considered by

musicians one of the most importantworks ever prod uced by the coloredpeople, is of especial importance toHampton. General Armstrong, theschool's great builder, heard it sungLy colored troops in the Civil War,on the eve of the regiment's mar-ch,and decided then to keep the racethat was capable of such music. TheQuartet's rendition of this numberwas unusually moving.Most of all, perhaps, the audience

seemed to appreciate the harmonyin "Mighty Lak a Rose", probablybecause it is seldom sung 'with suchbeautiful harmony of tones as theysang it.After this recital, we have to won-

del', with Mr. Ketcham, what the col-ored race will give along arttsttc linesin the future, if the proper educationis provided. And it is in considera-tion of that "if" that we feel a newinterest in Hampton Institute and itsdoings.

French Club To Give Play"Le Barbier de Sevnfe" Chosen for

Presentation

IJ(~ Barbier lIe Seville, by Beaumar-chats, has been chosen by the FrenchClub for its btennfal dramatic pres-entation. Rehearsals have been goingon for some time, and the play willbe given on Friday evening, Decem-ber 7th at 8: 15. The cast of prin-cipal characters follows:Le Comte Alinaviva .. Gertrude SmithBat-tho lo Mlle. BlondeauRosine .. Rosemary BrewerFigaro Frances McEifreshDon Bazile Anne HelipernLa Jeunesse Virginie KarfiolL'Eveill~ Barbara HuntNota.lre .. , Barbara PollardAlcade. . . . Constance GanoePerhaps the most difficult role to

interpret is that of Don Bazile, playedby Anne Hellpern, from whom wemay confidently expect a fine per-formance.

Le Bortner de Seoile is an entertain-ing comedy in four acts. The actioncenters about the attempts of Rosine,the Charming, vivacious heroine, tooutwit her shrewd old guardian,Bar-thole. She is aided in her ef-forts by Figaro, the clever barber.Meanwhile Don Bazile, Rosine's sing-ing teacher, is endeavo ring' to bringabout her marriage to Bartholo. She,however, is in love with Le ComteAlinaviva, who has disguised himselfas a relative of Figaro. All thesecomplications are at length straight-ened out when the Nouure. arrivingwith a marriage certificate for Rosineand Bart11010, marries her instead tothe Comte.

The two hockey games played onSaturday, November 10th, were; onebetween the Juniors and the Fresh-men, the other between the Seniorsand the Sophomores. The games werewen played, the upper classmen show-ing markedly improved confidence,and a more finished game, the Fresh-men playing remarkably well, consid-ering the short length of time thatthey have had to practice. The in-terchange which the upper classmenused was very well done and success-ful, as was the stick-work which wasmuch better than it has been forsome time.The scores were 9-5 in favor of the

Juniors, and 5-4 in favor of theSeniors. Skill was awarded to theSeniors and to the Freshman. Theline-ups were:Juniors - Freshman

AND NOW-Now that the election is over and

those of us who voted for Hoover have-c-to a certain degree-overcome thefeeling that we, personally, electedhim, and those of us who voted theother way have become more or lessresigned to the way the election cameout, don't let us feel that having beeninterested to an unusual degree in thepast election, we have done our dutyby our country. 'l'his has been onlythe beginning. 'I.'hose of us who didvote have just started, and have longyears ahead of us. Let us go aboutthe matter Intelligently. Now is thetime to follow up the parties and seejust what each one stands for, andhow well it carries out its alms. Thewise person will not drop politics nowthat Hoover has been elected, only toresume her Interest when politics oncemore become a daily topic of conver-sation. Instead she will know what isgoing on, and in 1932 will be fully ac-quainted with all the facts. This per-bon will know exactly how to cast herballot, and will not be influenced bypublic opinion. Start thinking aboutthe- next election now!

SUNDAY SERVICES ATHAMPTON

Of interest to the many who listenedwith pleasure to the excellent concertgiven by the Hampton Singers hereon November ninth is the story attheir Sunday night service at OgdenHall, Hampton Institute, Virginia.Singing is one of the most popular

and profitable activities at Hampton.Every Sunday night the auditorium inOgden Hall is fllled with colored menand women rrom the various schoolsthat take up. the institute. As thetime draws near for the service tocommence, a man comes forward tothe little reading desk that is at thefront at the platform. There is nosound until suddenly one is aware thatthere is the faint sound at hummingin the air, and then all at once, theassembly starts to sing. There hasbeen no apparent signal from theleade r, no one has a book. and yet theassembly goes from one song to an-

Dear Editor:'we wonder if there could not be

some system at getting places InThames dining-hall? We have heardthat in former years people signed upfor the tables they wanted. Perhapsthis system proved unsatisfactory, butat least it must have been better thantpe present scramble tor seats. It isa senior privilege to enter the dining-room flrst, and we appreciate the tactthat this right is due to them. Itwould, however. be much more pleas-nnt for the other classes if they couldsign up tor tables, and thus avoid therush for seats, and the separationfrom friends. There could certainlybe some plan preferable to thepresent one. '32.

SMOKE RINGSTo the Editorial Board of the New8:The pleasure of reading the Novem-

bel' 3rd issue of' the NCW8 has just beenmine. The glow, of reflected glory.upon reading the accomplishments at"C. K. N." Francke nee Crane andMike Namovitch Nugent-our realRussian countess with the throatyvoice and other accomplishments, waswarming.Aside from this feature on the front

page-the subject which enjoyed thelimelight at our Open Forums seemsstill to occupy the center of the stageat Connecticut. Smoking! 'rhls in-decision is not worthy of C. C, spl1'lt-uut perhaps the No Smoking Amend-ment is just "A Nobte Experiment."But as I sit here, Lucky in hand, I

can visualize SMOKE RINGS on thecampus. Rings of girls sitting arounddiscussing the forbidden weed, andsmaller rings here and there-behindstone walls-up above North-blow-ing rings surreptitiously.Your problem Interests me--as it

does many of the Alumnae. In fact,three years ago, a discussion of theundergraduates smoking occupied alarge part of a meeting of the NewYork Chapter. It was finally decidedthat this was a problem of the studentbody and we should take no part in it.Vassar, Smith and Bryn Mawr hadjust gone smoke and we wonderedwhy progressive Connecticut had not.We cannot help admiring your ap-

parent abstinence and yet we knowthat probably as much smoking isdone now as when we were there.Suppose you were allowed to smoke

-would you abuse the privilege andsmoke out on campus, on the car-nneon the state road and In town? Thismight really disgrace the college inthe eyes of the conservative and it de-serves consideration. If, however, thegirls would smoke In the dormitories,In certain rooms perhaps-and usediscretion-I feel It would do no par-ticular harm to our Alma Mater. Ifan irate parent were to yank his childaway-where could she pursue hereducation unharmed by the fumes?Would the repeal of this law injure

the health of the girls? It might be-come Connecticut College for Con-sumptives! Instead of four or fivesneaked every day or two-it mightbe a pack a day.Many a C. C. graduate who smoked

other for nearly half an hour. Whenone considers this phenomena, onemight term it-it makes the marvelof the singing that we heard here theother night more understandable. Itwould be possible to obtain suchsingers only from a gathering whereeveryone sings.

"DEAR DAISY"Dear Daisy;This matter of airplanes and their

haunts and habits is getting to be a.subject of much heated discussionround about our hilltop. They are asthick as fraternity pins on the sweaterat a popular flapper. Their sense- ofdiscretion and propriety Is as unde-"eloped as a frog'S tail and they swoopnonchalantly down from their properheights, under our very noses. Mwe bore away on the advantages ofmodern invention, one of the peskythings glides by our window, blissfullyignoring such things as telegraphpoles or veranda railings, as casuallyas If he were at a tea. On the tenniscourts, while leaping to punish anover-aspiring ball, we all but clip thewings of an adventurous aviator. Ourmeals are preceeded by breath-takingair stunts. We stand outside thedining-room, our hearts in ourmouths, as we see how near a planecan come and not Imitate Santa Claus.~iany Questions have arisen over tntsmatter. Are chaperones going to benecessary for "alrbuggy" riding-aviators are so handicapped that wehardly need them. And can onepuff a nonchalant Murad twenty-fivemiles above the campus? This high-flying world is certainly perplexingfor a girl.Hop Is approaching and Is a source

at much worry and discussion inSenior and Sophomore circles. Whatwith football engagements, the ridicu-lously out-of-the-way places some col-leges are flopped into to, and othercompucattone, a Man assumes as rarean aspect about this time, as adinosaur. And having once re-ceived the creature, what to do withhim? Certain Sophomores are in astate of great mental anxiety aboutwhere to park their charges whilethey powder their weary noses. TheInadequacies of orr-campus receptionrooms are well-known and deeply felt.Can seventeen men rest their brawnylimbs on five chairs and one sofa, andstill retain a fond affection for theirhostess and the college in general?Also are rubber plants and palmtrees, appropriate backgrounds forTux-sporting males? The thing hasbecome a senior problem and weighsheavily upon our weak minds.But It is all in the day"!; work and,

as Aunt Hepzfbtah used to say, willsurely come out in the wash.

"To be said by the whole congre-gation all kneeling." Thisextract from The Boob of CommonProyer is the theme of' Anne Parrish'sbook, All K1Weling.Christa bel Caine was the person-

age before whom retattves and friendsalike bent, and murmured theirpraise of her beauty, her genius andher supersensitive soul. She was thenucleus of an adoring family whoregarded her 'power to write poetry,coupled with her exquisite beauty, aslittle short of phenomenal. At everyturn they ~xploited her ability andshe, making the most of her brilliantmind, directed all attention towardherself with remarkable strategy. Herspiritual sensitivity represented, nota deep appreciation of life, but an in-herent selfishness.She was, however, so constituted,

mentally and morally and so rearedthat she early persuaded jiersetr thatit was she who made all the sacrifices,and in doing so rendered the lives ofthose about her happier and perhapsnobler through the medium of herpoems, of which there were soon aninteresting number publ iehed. Shebelieved that she reached countlesspeople, into whose souls no lightwould otherwise have penetrated.Constantly, from childhood to the

conclusion of the book in glowingwomanhood, this trait is dominantand dominating. Everything is en-tirely for effect, but so deeply hasChristabel Caine become absorbed inperpetuating her selfishness, underthe impression that she is the martyr,that her egoism is without hypoc-risy.Anne Parrish has treated the story

v....Ith her usual appreciation of values.By contrast she portrays the univer-sal halo placed about Christabel byher Quaker family and her Bohemianfriends whose aesthetic tastes the de-vastating young woman courts for atime. The whole book is charmingand consistent throughout with aclear comprehension of the subject.

True, girlsmight learn to smoke who do notmake the effort now-e-tc don the rain-coat, bathing cap and gloves, go artersome life savers and walk a safe dis-lance to get her after dinner drag.To those upon whose mind it preys,

legitimate smoking might be a greatboon. This type could then forgetabout it. give her attention to higheraims-and accompnab more-get herthemes in on time, etc. '23.

Antioch College sophomores recentlyset a precedent when they put it upto the freshmen to decide if therewould be any hazing this rear. Thefreshmen voted overwhelmingly infavor of it.-narerfolod -NClt8.

Horses dream of sugar,Puppies dream of spratts,Kittens dream of some dayGrowing into cats;Pennies dream of nickles,Nickles dream of dimes,Dimes of slot machines andOther thrilling times;Poets dream of gloryBeyond some gtorrous seaBut oh! an A in historyWould be enough for me.

undress to get to and from otherclasses on time.

When we were freshmen it was anunheard of thing to wear tunics tomears-c-uke bathing suits, for in-stance. Who would wear a tumblinguniform to dinner, even though theclass lasts till dinner time? Youwould be howled out if you did. Wefeel that hockey tunics are just assloppy and out of place in the dining-room as they are neat and approprt-ate on the hockey field. So beforewe get annoyed seriously and decideto take measures, freshmen, we aresuggesting, with all the good will inthe world, that you do not break the"tunic" rule any more.

SPIRIT OF '31.

November night has set her dogs uponme:

They have invaded me.All night they wander, sniffing and

barking,'fhrough the underbrush in my heart,

breaking off stalks,Leaping and snapping at thoughts in

my mind,Racing madly up and down my veins,Scratching along my spine.

"Call off your dogs, November,'I'hey are breaking me apar-t!"

When Professor T. Y. Smith, of theUn lver-sfty of Chicago. calls his classin philosophy together at 8 A. )L, ailthat is necessar-y for students to doi~ to lie in bed and listen. Realizingthat the hour is a bit early for stu-dent philosophers to arise, ProfessorSmith now broadcasts his lectures.Members of the class, if they so de-sire, may "attend" classes by tuningon their radios.
