complains because the study Of Greek ana
Latin i, usually made laboriouS, dry, phlo-
logical and abstract He declares that cla>>ica!
culture is hardly so much rs aimed al in Amcr-
can colleges. The hard and cherries toll OF
the prcparatory schools is nccdlcS>ly prolonged
and intensified Al the universities. The revolt
from classical studies in his opinion, is due to
classical teachers themselves. They have not
sounded" he says the depths of riches lying
AT their feet students have asked for bread
and they have given stones Feed youth with
classical food which shall be meat indeed, and
they will find il feast, prai,ing YOU aS a
bountful cntcrta 10 and never wishing 10
leave your table for anOthcrs.' The neY
president of Brown, in contcndng that larger
play must be given to the elective system Of
studies if higher education is 10 be thorough,
is following the precedent established by DR..
Wayland rather than continuing the policy of
DIR. Sears and Dr. Robinson, his immediate
predecessors When he explains. however,

own notions respecting the merits of the elective

for half century the teaching Of Latin at
Brown has been ideal.
Yer, much has been said during recent
Yeas about the importance of making higher
education comprehensive, practical and sym

and academic contentious, but every educated
man knows in his heart that his largest debt
of academic obligation is due to the teacher
who succeeded in inspiring him with cnthuSi-
assn for shidy-with genuine love of good
letters 1t is perhaps the chief merit Of classical
studies that they promote under wise direction
the growth Of that ardor for good literature
that passion for learning, without which higher
education is Improbable and disappointing.
Students at Brown for fifty years have fallen
under tho influence of a teacher of the Arnold
type who, with one Of those rugged, vet sympa-
thctic natures. alike strong and mellow. too
seldom found in the colleges has imparted his
own enthusiasm for classical culture TO his
classes. Professor Lincoln has taught Latin
not as a dead language with grammar and
accidencc to be acquired by persistent drudgery
but as Il literature vitalizcd with profound
thought and noble feeling, and containing all
the aSsimllatlve elements needed for intel
lectual growth. To read Horace's "Odcs', and
the AIRS Poetica" under him was to sit at a
bountiful feast and IN President Apdrcws's
