Evolution Of tho Educational Ideal.
Let us place ourselves apart from the
tumult which RACES ON both sides, and,
closing our ears, question ourselves
whether new educational ideal may be
evolved from this strife of Icontending
factions and what the general charac-
ter of this ideal would be. IF we assume
that the three features which have
mentioned may be combined, we should
have a popular, realistic, individualistic
ideal Of education-popular, not exclu-
sive or aristocratic in the narrower
sense Of the word; national, not foreign
or international, but rather the result
Of an evolution from the national life
itself; realistic, characterized by
strength and action and not by mere
thought and aesthetic sentiment; indi-
vidualistic- e., aiming at the devel-
opment of the individual and not at the
establishment of dull uniformity; not
democratic, therefore, if this word i'm
ply q general reduction to dead level,
but rather aristocratic, in the sense of
an individual, not class, aristocracy.
~ "OoAu W pNoouAAptOOu6 aU t0o pres.
emit day to state what the concrete form
Of such an educational ideal would be.
I wish to say, however, that the soci-
ety corresponding to the above ideal
would be that of an aristocracy Of
mind Is this the type toward which
we are tending? Is the aristocracy of
birth and wealth to be supplanted by
the aristocracy of personal worth and
merit? This has been the philosophers
dream from the day of Plato's ''Repub-
lie" to the present hour It is the tend
ency Of nature. 1t would be the aristoc-
racy Of nature to have every individual
stand independently upon his own per-
sonal merit and not upon the achieve
ments of his father. Paulsen

Endure Hardship.

AS gladiator trained the body, so
must we train the mind to self sacrifice,
Ito endure all things, to meet and
overcome difficulty and danger. We
must take the rough and thorny roads
as we'll as the smooth and pleasant, and
a portion at least Of our daily duty
must be hard and disagreeable, for the
mind cannot be kept strong and healthy
in perpetual sunshine only, and the
most dangerous Of all states is that Of
constantly recurring pleasure, ease and
prosperity. Most persons will find diff
culties and hardships enough without
seeking them. Let them not repine, but
take them as part Of that educational
discipline necessary to ct the mind to
arrive at its highest good NsW York
