These four noted writers also come
under the Cambridge Scholars" classi-
fication, and although some writers on
literature do not classify them as lite
rary workers we choose to include them
in our list.
Historians--that is, successful ones
should not only be able to narrate his
torical events accurately and systemati-
cally, but ut is also necessary that their
imaginative faculties be developed in or
der to portray characters and scenes
vividly.
1t is a noteworthy fact that many Of
our best historians have begun author

ture; Parkman began with a novel, Vas
sail Morton; Bancroft with book Of
poems; Motley with historical romances

GEORGE BANCROFT.
Born In 1900 at Worcester, Mass.
passed his early school days at the acad-
emy Of Dr. Abbott, at Exeter, N. H.,
where he took rank among the first
scholars in the academy.
At the age of 13 he entered Harvard
College from where he graduated four
years later honOred with the degree Of
Bachelor OF Arts.
Being too enthusiastic a student to
settle down and be content with these
achievements he went to Germany and
spent three or four years at the univer-
stiles Of GOttingen and Berlin, where he
studied under the great Heeren, the Ger
man historian. Added to this, he made
tour Of Germany, Switzerland, Italy
and England. After his return from

The boys and girls from our farms and
our shops come to our State Agricultural
College. Few OF them ever attend any
university. Many Of them do not even
get a full course in this college, Let US
give them a glimpse of the great world
in which they live. Let us teach and train
them to become good practical, efficient
farmers, stoclraisers, mechanics, engi-
neers, housekeepers and home makers,
cooks, seamstresses, civil engineers. Let
them have the best Of the manual and
physical training and instruction; but let
uS not forget that these young women
and men become the citizens OF our State
and nation. They become the law maxi
ers and the law enfOrcers. They need
the ability to think as we'll as the ability
to hold q plow. They should know how
to vote as well as how to SOW. They need
culture of mind and heart as much as
cultivation OF muscle and hand. The
laws and methods Of production they
study and apply. AS American citizens,
law makers, they should also understand
the laws Of distribution and the methods
by which the wealth Is distributed.
Why should wealth and its dependents
protest against giving our farmers and
mechanics boys and girls a Liberal edu-
cation? Is 1t not because upon the ig-
norance OF the masses OF country and
town depends the continuation of the
robber system? Must a man become a
priest or a lawyer before he shall nave

knowledge? plead for the country boys
and girls, for the children Of the farmer

best and broadest general education. Let
us give them the opportunity to become
cultured, intellectual, noble men and
women. Let the State furnish the means,
and assure you the sons aud daughters
of Kansas will furnish the brains and the
hearts.

JOHN LOTHRoP MOTLEY.
(1814-1877.)

Motley is said to be the greatest OF
American historians. He, too, studied
at GOttingen and Berlin and was United
States Minister TO Great Britain.
Harvard college also claims him as one
Of It's graduates Like his predecessor,
he journeyed through southern Europe
to add finish to his culture.
When he returned home he entered the
law profession but soon abandoned it.
A novel, Morton's Hope, came out two
years afterWard. This was followed in
short time by Merry Mount. Both Of
these were witty narratives, but their
popularity soon died.
For a long time he was engaged in
searching among State papers, letters
and pamphlets, and unpublished docu-
ments In the royal archives Of The
Hague, Brussels and Dresden.
The product of all this toll and search
was The Rise and Fall of the Dutch Re-
public, published in three volumes This
history takes up the history Of the Dutch
republic from It's foundation to the mid
die of the sixteenth century.
TO complete this record Motley wrote
four new volumes entitled The History
of the United Netherlands. The scien-
tifc thoroughness Of the work is equal
to that Of Bancroft, and the brilliant
pi,luresqueness Of the narrative is said
to rival that of Prescott,
So popular was the work at home and
abroad that honorary degrees were con-
ferred upon him at Harvard, Oxford, and
the Institute of France. It was trans
lated into the Dutch, German and
French, in which language 1t has
achieved wide renown.

Europe he was engaged 90 tutor Of Greek
at Harvard.
The Arst volume OF his great work, the
History OF the United States, was Issued
In 1884; since then ten additional vol
umes have been published.
His positions OF state, both at home
and abroad Che was Secretary Of the
Navy under Polk, and from 1S46 to 1S4s
served as our minister plenip0tentiary
to Great Britain) gave him advantages
that few men of distinction have en-
Joyed. Important national papers and
archives were inspected by him which
were OF inestimable value to him in pre-
pairing his great work, as was also the
free access to the treasures Of valuable
literary collections owned by friends Of
his In literary circles.
He has treated his subject very thor
oughly and has become the standard
authority on the subject, but as regards
the literary excellence Of the work critics
pronounce his manner of writing as be-
ing heavy and stiff, lacking that romantic
flavor 80 noticeable in Motley and Park
man.

WILLIAM HICKLING PRESCOTT.
(1796-1859.)

Prescott was educated at Harvard and
Cambridge, graduating from Harvard in
1914. While in his junior year at college
fellow student playfully threw crust
of bread at him. It struck Prescott's eye
with such force as to utterly destroy the
sight. The Inflammation arising from
the wounded eye seriously affected his
remaining eye and he was threatened
with total blindness. This was q great
misfortune as he was Obliged to study
by the help Of others and to write with
noctograph or by amanuensis. Fortu-
nately he had wealth at his command
with which to employ others to assist
him in his work.
Ten years of the most systematic
study, through which he experienced in
tense pain, was the preparation he gave
himself for his life work.
He chose for his theme the conQuests
Of the Spaniards in the new world. In
order to do this it was necessary for him
to be proficient in the Spanish language
SO that he could look up authorities, and
the result of all this labor and physical
suffering is an intensely interesting
series Of histories full Of romantic in
cidents. In some chapters Of his works
they are said to be colored too highly In
picturesque incidents and imaginative
scenes. His completed histories are the
Reign of Ferdinand and Isabella, 1897;
Conquest Of Mexico 1843; Conquest of
Peru, 1S47. They are full Of romance,
and will interest one as much II not
more than the most exciting modern
novel, and will be well worth remember
ing; a novel generally Is not.
