_T the Sophomore supper last- Saturday, President Pritch-

ett mentioned, as he hasdone several times before,the great need of a Tech-nology song-book. The

class responded in an enthusiastic but ratherinformal way, by appointing a committee tolook into the matter and consider the advisa-bility of compiling such a book. We do notknow just what the result of this action willbe, and we do not wish to be understood asdisapproving it, but we do wish to call atten-tion to the fact that this is not a class matter,but an Institute matter.

All the classes--excepting 1905-havenow participated in one or more of these in-formal suppers, whose introduction is duedirectly to President Pritchett, and we are allbeginning to realize what a splendid thing hehas done for us. We can realize also thetruth of what he has from the first empha-sized: that a most prominent feature of thesemeetings should be singing,- good singing.He thinks, and we all think, that a distinc-tively Technology song-book would help outvery much in this respect.

But if the compiling of such a book be un-dertaken at all, it ought to be undertakenseriously, and the work done most thor-oughly. We would suggest that a specialboard, something on the plan of a Techniqueboard, might be appointed, containing men ofmusical and literary ability, and representingevery department of the Institute,- under-graduates, alumni, instructing staff and Fac-ulty. Then every single individual, frompresident to Freshman, ought to heartily co-operate with the board, and hand in a list,say of a dozen of his favorite songs, andany suggestions that might occur to him.Through the Tec/ntology Zaarlervly or Re-view, or better yet, by means of circulars, thealumni could be informed of the movement,and asked to help. In some such way couldbest be obtained material for the board towork on, and also a good idea of what reallywould be for Institute men the best knownand most suitable songs. A collection ofreal value ought to result.

Above all else, we would emphasize thegreat need in such a book of one or moregood Tech songs. From I,400oo students,

Page 8: 1o1. - The Techtech.mit.edu/V21/PDF/V21-N18.pdf · 2007. 12. 22. · OUR SPECIALTY 18 Boylston St., 651 Washington St. Boston. L. MARPTIN. ME N A SPECIALTY.-Washington and Winter

mu rm TE o:

150 instructors and 2,5oo00 alumni, it seems tous that something really good might beforthcoming. A suitable prize might be of-fered, but any mere prize of money would,we think, be as nothing compared with thesatisfaction the composer of such a songmight feel in hearing it hummed or whistledin the familiar corridors of the Institute,or, in future years, ringing through the cheer-ful social rooms of the Walker MemorialGymnasium.

E were greatly pleasedto read the announce-ment, in the new cata-logue, that the workon the much-talked-of Walker MemorialBuilding would, becommenced this spring,and probably be fin-

ished by next October. Shich a near com-pletion of the building was beyond the hopesof the most optimistic outsider, and nothingbut congratulations can be extended to thosewho were instrumental in so energeticallypushing the matter and collecting the funds.The building of the Walker Memorial willprobably do more towards instilling a newlife into the Institute, and filling the studentswith more of that college spirit which makesone, as an alumnus, look back with pleasureupon his student life, than any other institu-tion that could be proposed. It will, nodoubt, mark an epoch in the Institute's life,and we look forward, anticipating this newperiod.

Sophomore Dinner.

The Class of 19o4 held a class supper Satur-day evening, March I, at the Old TechnologyClubhouse, 71 Newbury St. The dinner wasa big success, nearly I5o men being presentagainst 64 of last year. After the dinner

L. P. Burnham opened the festivities of theevening with the following toast:

"There's the class of '02,

And the class of '03,And more to arriveAfter the class of '05.But the class of '04.The old Sophomore,Is the best companyThat ever cameTo old Technology."

After responding to the toast the class sang"The Quilting Party" ably assisted by "Periiat the box." This was followed by a speech byPres'ident Pritchett, the speaker of the even-ing. Dr. Pritchett stated his views in regardto the holding of " class suppers," which weresuch that no man should be ashamed to have,whether they were of the clergy or not.Following the speech by the president wereseveral songs, after which Mr. Burnham saida few words to the class. The next hour waspassed singing the good old college songsand listening to several very entertainingspeeches from Dr. Pritchett. Followingthese songs came several speeches from themembers of the class. Mr. Lang started thespeeches by speaking about the " TreasuryDepartment" of the class. This was fol-lowed by Mr. Haynes on " Athletics." Fol-lowing these camne several delightful pianosolos by Mr. Perii and Mr. Haynes. Theclass then rose and drank a " Silent Toast toTheir Honored Classmates" who last yearlost their lives in such a tragic manner. Thiswas followed by the good old song "DieWacht Am Rhein." President Pritchett thensaid a few words in regard to the mean-ing that song had to German students. Mr.Sweet then gave a very interesting speech.This was followed by a few words fromC. L. Homer, A. C. Downes and H. W.Goddard. It was then moved and carriedthat a committee consisting of Messrs. Broad,Wentworth and Hadley be appointed to ar-range a list of songs to be sung at Technologystudent gatherings.

Thirty-seventh Annual Catalogue.

The Thirty-seventh Annual Catalogue ofthe Institute of Technology made its debut tothe world last week in the office of the secre-tary of the Institute. The catalogue is inter-esting in that it contains facts showing theInstitute's growth during the past year, andits prospects for the future. As stated in thecatalogue, " the number of students, no lessthan the increasing demands of modern scien-tific education, have made necessary newlaboratories for departments of electrical engi-neering and physics. Buildings of the mostcomplete sort have been planned for thesepurposes, and their erection will be begunthis spring. They will cost with their equip-ment between $400,oo000 and $50oo,ooo, andwill represent the results of the latest practicein these subjects. A gymnasium and studentclubhouse to minister to the social side ofstudent life has been needed for some years.The money for such a building has been se-cured, and it is expected that building willbe begun in April, and be completed beforethe beginning of the next school year. Itwill be open to all students of the Institute,and will afford shelter not only for the ath-letic and social activities of the students, butfor the department of physical instruction aswell."

In comparing last year's catalogue withthat of the present year we notice that for25 professors last year there are 29 this year;i x associate professors, against 9 this year; 27

assistant professors, against 25; 40o instructors,against 46; and 29 assistants, against 32; mak-ing a total of 132 members of the instructingstaff last year, against I41 at the presenttime. There are also 7 instructors in me-chanic arts against 6 of last year.

The Institute has offered an advancecourse in naval architecture for officersdesignated for the corps of naval constructors.The first and second years of this coursecorrespond to the regular third and fourthyears in the ordinary course in naval archi-tecture, while the third year corresponds tograduate work, and leads to the degree ofMaster of Science. The Institute has alsoarranged graduate courses in metallurgy,mining engineering, chemistry and electricalengineering leading to the Master's degree.

One very important point is the raising ofthe tuition for from $200 to $250, for studentsentering after I902. This change is madeon account of the large expenditures forimprovements in the near future.

Under the part set aside for the names ofstudents we find three new fellows: JohnWesley Brown, S.B., M. I. T.; Austin Fel-low, studying in Heidelberg, Germany; Mau-rice I)e Kay Thompson, Jr., S.B., M. I. T.:Savage Fellow, studying in Ziirich, Switzer-land, and James Henry Walton, Jr., S. B.,M. I. T., studying in Heidelberg, Germany.There are I29 graduate students this year,against ioi last year; I75 fourth-year stu-dents, against I93; 179 third-year students,against i84; 236 second-year students, against205; 396 first-year students, against 340, and413 special students, against 345, making atotal of I,4I5 students this year against I,277

last year.There are now 2,5I8 graduates, against

2,329 last year. This number is only aboutone-third the total number of students who inthe past have been connected with the Insti-tute.

Notice - 9Qo2.

I902 Class Dinner will be held this year atYoung's Hotel, 7.30 o'clock, Friday, March I4.

No dress suits will be worn. Tickets, $2.00;can be obtained from Paul Weeks, II, C. B.Allen, XIII, F. T. Root, X.

Freshman Page Themes.HIS IMPROVISED THERMIOMIETER.

I, for one, am not surprised to hear of the death ofHamilton's infant child, for the reason that I knowHamilton very well indeed, and I can realize fromwhat I have seen of the shiftless, luckless, good-natured old fellow, that the death was not a verywonderful event in such circumstances. Hamiltonmight do very well for a godfather, but he was notmeant to have any children to look after alone.While Mrs. Hamilton was living everything wentsmoothly, for she held the reins to the whole affair.But she died three years ago, and it is a wonder thatthe infant survived hier as long as he did. Why, onenight, when I visited Hamilton, I found him bathingthe child in a little zinc bathtub. The window to theroom was open and there was an appreciable draught." Great heavens, man, close that window ! " I cried;which he did good-naturedly. " How hot is thewater in the tub? " I asked. " Sure I don't know,"he answered, complacently. "Why, you ought to usea thermometer! How do you know whether thewvater is too hot or too cold for this chiid ? " Oh,"he answered, breezily, " that's easy enough ; when it'stoo hot, he grows red; when it's too cold, he turnsblue." And now Hamilton wonders why the infantdied! D.

CROW MARSH.

Deep in the woods which fringe the northernboundary of our town is the "Crow Marsh." Onlythe edges of this marsh have ever been explored,and no one has ever dared to investigate the mysterywhich hangs over the interior. This whole marsh issurrounded with quicksand and soft, slimy mud. Allattempts to sound this mud have failed, for if a weightis lowered by a rope or wire it snaps when it gets tenfeet below the surface, and it looks as if it had beencut with a cold chisel or by the teeth of some enor-mous animal. A large clump of tall pines stands inthe center of the marsh. These pines furnish thenesting-place for thousands of crows, whose uncannycaws, mingled with the bubbling oozing sound of theincessantly moving mud exerts a powerful and anunwholesome influence on the imagination.

_ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ I1 T--1-1 -LI55" Applied Mechanics."

"Applied Mechanics," which will begiven at the Hollis Street Theatre during thelast week of April, tells of the adventures ofeight Tech students traveling in Germany insearch of adventure and information. Dur-ing the course of the action they run across aparty of Tech co-eds, who are also in thepursuit of knowledge. This meeting fur-nishes plenty of opportunities for local hitsand catchy topical songs. The love affairsof Ludwig and Rosalie, two German youngpeople, and the, fascinating powers of fourfrauleins, play important parts in the plot.The libretto, as well as the music, is fromseveral pens and is all characteristic ofTech life. Of the seven ballets, under thesupervision of Mr. John Coleman, five willbe of a special nature, with new and cleversteps.

The cast this year will not contain many ofthe old favorites, A. W. Rowe, Lewis Emery,3d, and Matthew Brush having graduated.Among last year's players who will be in thecast are: G. T. Laughlin, 'o3; R. J. King,'03; Paul Paine,' 04; S. Gwinn, '04, andArchibald Gardiner, '03.

By an unfortunate oversight we omitted, inour last issue, any mention of the resignationof Mr. C. A. Sawyer, '02, from the TechBoard. Mr. Sawyer has been connectedwith the board since the year I899, and hasalways been one of its most prominent mem-bers. He has, however, been compelled toresign on account of pressure of work.

H. C. Stetson, '04, is detained at his homein Walpole by illness.

Ralph W. Sawyer, '05, has been unable toattend school the past two weeks on accountof illness.

We see that the millionaires laid carpeton the streets, for Prince Henry to treadupon. Won't some kind-hearted millionaireput a straw matting in Engineering Alley?

The Class of 1903 will hold a Smoker onFriday, March 7, at 8 P.M. President Pritch-ett will be present, and a full attendance isdesired.

Preliminary training for the Track Teambegan last Monday at the Gymnasium, underthe direction of Coach Mahan.

On petition of twenty-five members of theSenior Class, a recount of ballots for thePortfolio Committee was made, and the fol-lowing men declared elected: Proctor,Fitch, Baker, Pollard, Mixter.

President Pritchett is quite busy in con-nection with the work of the Charles RiverDam Commission, of which he is chairman.

Mr. F. H. Newell, chief hydrographer ofthe U. S. Geological Survey, addressed theCivil Engineering Society on Tuesday last.His lecture was illustrated.

There will be a meeting of the Class ofx903 at one o'clock on Thursday. The elec-tion of a Junior Prom. Committee will be held.

On Wednesday, Feb. 26, an AlumniSmoker was held by the Class of I9O01 at theold Technology Clubhouse. Mr. -Burrisongave a talk on " Hunting in the West." Re-freshments were served, and a most pleasantevening spent, the party not breaking upuntil eleven o'clock.

A meeting of the Technology Forum,I905, was called for Thursday afternoon,but no quorum was present, and the meetingwas postponed. We do not know anythingof the merits of this special society, but wedo know that a debating club can be madenot only a source of good training, but ofgood fun, also, and it seems a pity that themeeting was not given better support.

President Pritchett was one of the "OneHundred Captains of Industry" who werechosen as heads of representative Americanindustries, to meet Prince Henry.

Some time ago we noticed with pleasurethat the Institute Committee had recom-mended to the Lunch Room Committee ofthe Faculty that chairs be not turned up inthe lunch room after one o'clock; but wehave not yet heard that any action has beentaken on the matter.

Mr. Winchester, '03, has been electedtreasurer, and Mr. Homer, 'o04, assistantmanager of the M. I. T. A. A. We hear itrumored that negotiations are nearly com-pleted for a three-sided meet with Brownand Dartmouth, to be held this spring. Pre-liminary training has already begun at thegymnasium, and the services of Coach Mahan,who so successfully trained the men for theB. A. A. meet, are to be secured.

Mechanical Engineering Soc ety Meeting.At a meeting of the Mechanical Engineer-

ing Society, Thursday, Feb. 27, at 4.30, inRoom ii, Engineering B, Professors Lanza,Schwamb, Miller, Merrill and Park wereelected to honorary membership, and Messrs.J. W. Aylsworth, A. L. Magnitsky, C. J.McIntosh, V. M. Palmer and G. W. Swettwere elected active members of the Society.

The subject of the addresses which fol-lowed was " Steam Turbines." Mr. Starr,II., gave an excellent description of the con-struction and theoretical operation of theturbine, concluding with some statistics ofturbine tests. Mr. Allen, XIII., told of someof the difficulties encountered during a tur-bine test made by himself in connection withthesis work, giving the results of his test.These results seem to show that the turbineis an exceedingly economical form of engine,and is especially adapted for driving direct-connected generators and fans, and for mainengines in fast vessels of not too great size.

The new laboratories for electrical engi-neering and physics are to be on ClarendonStreet, just beyond Copley Hall. They willbe probably the largest laboratories of thekind in the world.

Technology Theatricals.

The Walker Club has decided upon 1" WhySmith Left Home" as the play to be givenduring Junior week. The success of " ANight Off," as presented last year, warrantsthis effort, and it is hoped that the studentswill take even more than the usual interestthis year, because success alone makes thisannual event possible. Like the Tech Show,the Walker Club Theatricals form one of thevery few general social events. Candidatesfor parts are to meet in Room ix, Rogers,March 7, at four o'clock, P.M1. All who areinterested in theatricals, and all who haveever taken any part in amateur stage work areinvited to show up at that time.

Within the last few years much talk has been un-rolled about the value of mathematics as a disciplinarymachine and mental glove-stretcher. THE LOUNGERhas been too busy all this time fingering the A B C'sof this exact science to enter the discussion. He iswell aware that the deciding of this great questiondepends upon the words of such great fountain-pensas Mr. Bok of the Ladies' Home joturnal, upon Mr.Frank A. Munsey, author of Munsey's Own PictureBook, and also upon the much-abused LOUNGER, whomay be said to be lashed but not leashed. Now, Mr.Bok has been so busy printing corset advertisementsand compounding balky etiquette that he has beenunable to speak on the subject. Mr. Munsey, on theother hand, has been occupied in explaining to aneager public how high one month's copies of hisMonthly Picture Book would reach if placed one ontop of the other. THE LOUNC;ER mourns the factthat the pile was ever disturbed, but that is anotherfuneral. Seeing, then, that his two illustrious col-leagues have gone back on him, THE LOUNGERreluctantly condescends to give a one-round fight toa finish with the troublesome question. Mathematics,or, as it is sometimes erroneously called, " arifmatik,"is of inestimable value as a disciplinary agent, asetting-up drill for the brain, a tonic for the tonicless,a care for the careless. Viewed in its manifold mul-tiplicities it becomes chameleonic. Sometimes it isas dark and dismal as an old rag in a mud-puddle.At other times it is as refreshing as a drink of coldwater on a hot summer's day, as interesting as theface of a monkey with a mirror, as distracting as apretty girl in church. Everybody will admit thatthe most valuable things that ever existed are books.Yet it is not generally known that but for mathe-matics we would not have a single book. THELOUNGER, by virtue of his having studied mathe-matics, has a reasoning power sufficiently developedto see this. Any bookkeeper will tell you that inorder to keep books, "arifmatik "is necessary. There-fore it follows that we could never have kept so manybooks were it not for "arifmatik," or elementarymathematics. But it is a curious fact that the prob-lems made clear by this powerful reagent, mathe-matical reasoning, will be precipitated if too much be

added. THE LOUNGER will give an example: Con-sider an ordinary piece of string. It is a short pieceof string and yet it is a foot long. You will agreewith THE LOUNGER, Zeno and Socrates, that if thissame piece of string were endless it would be muchlonger. Certainly, if it had no ends it would belonger. And yet, and yet, if you cut off the endsyou will find it is no longer. For such cases as this,mathematical reasoning has no remedy. And nowwill Mr. Bok and Mr. Munzey take up this momentousdiscussion and add it to their list of difficult problemssolved? But remember, gentlemen, that this time itwas not yotg who solved it. It was your fellow-moralist, THE LOUNGER, who may be lashed, butleashed - never '

THE LOUNGER marvels. Verily, there is going onin the veins of the Institute organism a mighty con-flict between the white corpuscles and the red. -Thenature of the entire organism is in the balance,-whether Technology be a rich-blooded, democraticorganization of untitled enthusiasts, or whether it bea blue but-thin-blooded, aristocratic conglomerationof ultraviolet lines chosen out from the rest of thespectrum. It is a mighty question, and mighty is thebattle waged upon it. And now, as this historiantemporarily removes himself to a mental backgroundof five future generations, so.as to get the reducing-glass perspective of a century or two, he is forcedreluctantly to admit that the first victory belongs tothe white corpuscles,- to the army of the blue blood.In vain may the president, who seems to be of theother party, and those of his followers in the Facultywho are staking their life on the upholding of hisregime,-in vain may they try to scout the conclusion.Theirs is the first defeat. With a masterful ingenuity,the secretary - the leader of the aristocrats - haslaid his plans with the most successful results. Hehas - so rumor states - almost completed his prep-arations preliminary to seizing the reins of govern-ment and assuming the dictatorship of Technology,under the elite title of dealt, while his faithful minionand conspirator is to be rewarded with the positionof second in command, under the already powerfulnomt deg .qe/-re of secre/a-y. In vain does the presi-dent writhe in anguish, seeing thread after threadbreak in the great rope of republican authority; invain does he strain every sinew, nerving himself togreat effort, to preserve the integrity of the massesand the subservience of the Classes,- to preservethe rights of the classes (wiftoul the capital) and theinferiority of the Masters. In vain. The audacioussecretary has made his first bold stroke. Alreadymany of the president's reinforcements have beencut off. By the sudden elevation of the cost oftuition at Technology, a jump of twenty-five per cent,unequaled elsewhere in the history of graphic statis-tics, he has rendered improbable the arrival of anyfuture Freshmen classes. Next June, so is the planof this wily pretender, the Senior class is to be elimin-

ated from the battle-field by a different but equallyefficacious method, and the president left supportedonly by a half supply of student cohorts. Anotheryear of uninterrupted success, and the secretary vllihave bisected this by two; and within 365 days there-after--unless all precedents, signs and portents fai-- the president and his Faculty followers will beleft as lonely as a brace of sea gulls in mid-ocean.The'president, plucky to the end, still bids defiance.waving the pie-shaped Technology banner in theteeth and beard of his MIachiavellian adversary. Buthe realizes, nevertheless, that stone after stone isbeing loosened from his battlements, that only amaster move now can turn the tide of treason andrestore the rank of the right. Already he has made anaove, in his turn, of infinite sagacity, marveloussubtlety and admirable finesse. Getting togetherhis Council of War,- innocently termed the InstituteCommittee,- he has selected from their number threeof the wisest and most discreet. These he has corm-missioned, under oath of surpassing fidelity, to conferwith no less sapient a neutral power than THE TECH.The result can hardly be in doubt. He will win itsactive alliance. Strengthened, his cause will burstinto the bloom of renewed youth, and will speedilycarry all before it. New Freshmen will appear,despite the increased tuition and the advanced require-ments for admission. They will be drawn, in evengreater numbers, by the hope of a position on theeditorial-and-LouNGER staff of this paper, and by thedesire to share in the voluptuous experience of read-ing " Mr. Dooley" on an average of one time per week.The president will expand, THE TECH will push for-ward, the secretary will retire into his innermost safeand lock himself in. The bursar will then seal himup in it with a certified check; THE TECH will movedown into the old Secretarium; and the presidentwill be victorious, democratic, and praised by allTech men even to the seventh generation.

The Catalogue is out. THE LOUNGER does notmean to imply by this that it ever was in, nor that itbroke out like the smallpox or a rumor that H-rrT-l-r intended to shave hereafter. He merely meansthat it has left the petr.lous paths of the printery to bepursued and perused by the pondering public. Onething about the Catalogue strikes THE LOUNGER'S lefteyebrow as oddly funny. It is the fact that the mostimportant item in the book, the one about the raisein the tuition fee, is printed on a little slip of paperand pasted in, as if it were an afterthought. THELOUNGER desires to be put down in history as herestating that he thinks it must have been a slip. Theeditor. in-chief informs THE LOUNGER as he now writes,that if he does not write enough he will feel com-pelled to put in a joke to fill the page. You know,rambling readers, that this would be no joke, so youwill rise as one man to thank 'THE LOUNGER and theCatalogue for substituting in place of a junky joke amiserable mess of inanimate inanities.

Those who, like the Tlheatceger, find peculiarlyoffensive on the stage the use of the calcium light, withits brilliant, sharply outlined spot of light jerkedabout to follow the leading actor, can enjoy to thefull the subdued, suffused illumination of Mr. Irving'sscenes. Notably delicate is the lighting of thatscene of the Merchanl into which Mr. Irving puts somuch unexpected power. On the night of Bas-sanio's feast, Shylock, in a mood of mingled tender-ness and foreboding, leaves Jessica to lock up andwatch his home:

"Let not the sound of shallow fopperyEnter my sober house."

After his departure there is a frolicking rush ofmaskers and capering pantaloons across the stage;gondolas pass under the bridge, and strains of gaymusic swell and die on the ear. Then Lorenzo andhis companions with mirth and passion hurry Jessicaaway in her boy's disguise. At last the scene darkand deserted. Shylock returns, carrying a lantern.As he descends the steps of the bridge the calciumfollows him steadily, keeping him in a little circle oflight, which his lantern seems to spread about him, toshow the Way.

Equally notable in the same play is the careful ad-justment of Shylock's make-up to every scene. Hisclothing is at first bare and plain, his head is coveredwith the yellow-striped Jewish cap. Later, he de-parts to the feast clothed in more gorgeous scarfsand turban. After, in his frenzy, pursued by theoutcry of the children in the streets, he comes, cap-less, with bare arms, tumbled locks and disordereddress, to exclaim on his ducats and his (laughter;and lastly appears in court in austerer garb thanever, with his hair wet and smoothed down over hisforehead and eyes.

Further of note in Mr. Irving's acting is his strik-ing use of inarticulate sound. In the MFerchant, forinstance, Shylock accompanies the protests of Bas-sanio and the resigned farewell of Antonio in thecourt with a low undertone of sneering contemptthat changes once into the fiercely aspirated excla-mation, "These be the. Christian husbands ! " andagain into a pitiful, frightened, almost animal whinewhen judgment falls upon him. He stumbles fromthe court with a long, exhausted, gasping breathwrung by a tortured spirit from his lips.

Mr. Irving holds the record for the longest run ofany Shakespeare play. He gave Hamle! for two

hundred consecutive nights in the season of 1874-75,and A/Macbeth for the same period in i888-89.

A correspondent, resenting the Theatergcer'scharge of improbability in the play, Quality S/reet,questions the probability of As You Like It and theMerchant of Venice. Dramatic probability is, ofcourse, a purely relative affair. All the conventionsof stage speech are not only improbable but impos-sible, yet we lose little of the illusion because theactors speak in verse or in soliloquies and "asides,"audible to every person in the theater. More offen-sive are improbabilities of plot, which must be ob-scured either by having the improbable incidentsmerely assumed or related,- never acted,- so thatwe need believe only with our ears and not with oureyes, or by placing the whole play in a poeticallyfanciful and imaginative atmosphere. This last isShakespeare's method in both plays mentioned.Most offensive improbability of all is improbabilityof character. Given the circumstances, however un-likely, the character must act as such a person undersuch circumstances would. Dramatic probability,after all, is required to create illusion only for themoment. We may afterward protest and disbelieveas we will, but during the play we must never raisethe question.

Now, Quality S/reet protected itself by no roman-tically improbable atmosphere. Phcebe seemed tome a character somewhat improbable and inconsist-ent, and even during the performance the mistof illusion often dissolved and sometimes vanished.Phcebe's extravagant adventures we might perhapshave accepted if they were not visibly presented,or if they were placed in some imaginary time andcountry; but they become aggressively improbablewhen shown before our sight as occurring inGeorgian England.
