Unusual Meeting at 'Varsity.

Unusual and interesting would adequately describe the evening recently held at Varsity under the auspices of the Literary Society, at which members had a Heaven-sent opportunity of at last expressing their pet literary aversions.

Four members of the Society led the general "hating." Mr. A. Dunningham convincingly hated nearly ail moderns, and all didactic and sociological literature, and argued for a return to the pure vigour of the Elizabethans, the rollicking reality ol Falstaff. His views were original and refreshing if opposed to the present trend of University thought.

Mr .R. J. Larkin "hated" James Joyce—"and other sex-obsessed writers who seem, like the Chinese, never to enjoy food unless it is revolting to the eye."

Miss Peggy Macdonald had no soft spot in her heart for Kipling, the "flag flapper," and Miss Ostler told the audience that Rupert Brooke was no poet and suffered from adjective disease in its worst form.
