CURRENT POETRY IS CLUB SUBJECT Member* of the Research club met yesterday afternoon at the home of Mrs. George Thoma* and heard an interesting paper by Mr*. C. D. Lewton on the subject of | "Current Poetry.” In brief Mr*. Ix*wton said: "The! first voice to bring that modern . spirit of free-lorn and strength to , American poetry wa» that of Walt 1 Whitman, ilia influence can acarce- I ly be over-estimated. He led the! way toward a r ider aspect of dem- | or racy. He took hie readers out of ' dim musty libraries into the coarse | sunlight and th * common air. ■ j “The final estimate of Whitman's * work is yet to be estimated. Contemporary wl’h him was Emily Dickinson. Competent critics say her poetry is the finest by a woman in the English language. It kt no longer necessary for an artist to live in New York. Boston or Irondon Today the creative Impulses are international. There is scarcely a state, hardly a country which cannot boast of its local laureate. "One of the foremost poet* Is Stephen Vincent Benet. Ilia life work* along with those of Archilraid Mclx-lgh. librarian of congress. Sara Teasdale, Estlln CummIngs, the most daring and radical of the later poets, and Bliss Carman. were discussed.” Several examples of the poets' work were read by Mrs. Leonard Saylors and Mr*. A. R. Holthouse, After a social hour, the club adjourned to meet next week with ' Mr*. C. D. Lewton. Mrs. L. A. Cow- | ens'will be the leader with "American Painters” aa her subject. The regular stated meeting of I the Eastern Star will be held at I the Masonic hall Thursday evening ' at aeven-thlrty o'clock. The annual ' friends night will be observed and ■ a good attendance is desired.
