BRAINS ABOVE MILLIONS.
Gov. Roosevelt Addresses Cornell
Graduating Class

ithaca, N. Y. June 21.-Gov. Roosevelt
attended the class day exercises or the
class of '99 in Cornell armOry. The stu
dents received him with cheers In ms
address to the graduates the governor
referred to statements recently made
by several men who had amassed great
fortunes. to the effect that collegiate
education is useless in the world or
today. He attacked their position vehe-
mently and said:
Our country could better afford to
lose all of the men who have amassed
millions than to lose one-half of its col
Iege bred men. We can get along with
out men of enormous wealth, but not
without men of brains"
Governor Roosevelt then discussed
the desirability of college bred men
making themselves active in the polid-
cal world. He criticised the position that
because politics are corrupt good men
should Shun them, holding that the
very fact that dishonesty and corrup-
ton exist should be an incentive to
good men actively participating and re-
moving evils. The man who holds aloOf
merely because of corruption, he said,
is unworthy of the blessings of Ameri-
can citizenship. A man should be as
ready to fight for the best interests of
his country in time of peace as in time
of war. The duties of peace are none
the less arduous than those of war, and
he is no thoroughly good American citi-
zen who shuns either. Speaking direct
~ to the graduating class the governor
advised them that they were no better
than the masses who had not had their
advantages, except in so far as they
utilized their great advantages and
proved themselves so. Collegiate edu-
cation did not make them TOO cultured
and refined for the active work of life;
IF it did it would be a curse rather than
a blessing. Collegiate training offered
innumerable advantages, but merely it
of itself, if without effort, would avail
nothing.
above ALL" said the governor, do
not become of the class of so-called
highly educated and cultured who sneer
at American institutions and American
customs Do not become one of the
class who lose faith in the ability of
Americans to govern either themselves
or their islands"
In the afternoon the governor ad-
dressed a meeting in one of the parks of
the city.

The following interesting calculation Of

Then the home will be destroyed.
So says the Chinese classic for girls.
This sentence is quoted from the Book OF
History, written more than two thousand
years ago, but.it is just as applicable now
In China as It was then. Few people have
more reason for coming such a sentence;
than the Chinese.
q Few have more reason for dreading wo-
mans rule than they. We seek in vain In
the history Of China for Zenobia or a
Victoria, but we find In their stead the.
cruelty OF a Mary and the wantonnese
Of a Cleopatra. In every case, so far as
we are able to discover from history,
where she has control Of the government
she has abused It. Extravagance, cruelty
and murder have been the principal char
acteristics of her reign. Connected with
her name there is a foul odor which I
doubt II any one among the whole four
hundred millions Of Chinese subjects en-
vies her. She is cordially hated and de-
spised. and Is never mentioned in the
presence Of girls except as warning and
a reproach.
Let it be understood that what we have.
said applies not to one empress dowager
alone. but to any or all Of those who have
.usurped, or attempted to usurp, the gov
eminent. Such women, however, do not
represent the women Of China. No coun-
try in the world with the same limited
opportunities can present a finer list of
devoted mothers and noble examples of
