He has four paws. to fore paws and to
behind ones, and tail.
He has been known for many years,

the Ark. where he must have been tied
up OF what would have become Of the
rats? Cats don't be cats until they are
a year old, when they stop being kit

~. Summer School Movement.

! For vears our colleges were the
centres Of conservatism. Their curric-
Nuns as well as their theologies
seemed immovable: but within the past
decade new influences nave obtained.
The new college president is not a
solemn theologian whose chief qualities
/ are absent-mindedn and the ability to
/ preach congregations to sleep, but live,
progressiye energetic business man,
who combines executive capacity with
satisfactory amount of learning, and
who can raise the standard of the insti-
tuition with the same enthusiasm as he
raises cash to support it. Thus in the
evolution of things the university and
the colleges are bridging over the long
summer vacation. Until recently, the
church and the school, which we most
need, were about the only things that
were closed during the summer months.
In the new order of things. the school is
now ahead of the church; but give the
church time, and it will undoubtedly do
its duty
Hence the summer school movement.
There is no doubt about It's growth, or
about the permanence OF its stay. 1t has
gone beyond experiment. In the large
cities the public schools are being thrown
open during the vacation days. Many
of the conservative universities are
meeting the new demand, and the rest
of them will undoubtedly follow. On
the present list are Hazard University,
Columbia University, Cornell Universi-
ty, University of Chicago, University
Of Wisconsin, University of Michigan,
New York University and many Others:
Some of them, like the University Of
Chicago. continue during the whole year,
offering three months of summer in
struetion. THE Saturday Evening Post

The Watch on Deck.

Reused by Numbered call to work
Out from the focastle rolls the watch
Scandinavian, German, 1ank,
And one whose broad speech marks hin
Scotch
Tanned by the touch of sun and wind
Defying hunger, cold and wreck,
These are the children of the sea,
The grumbing, faithful swatch on deck"
The dawn comes stealing from the East
The grim gray water rolls and heaves;
The tall sails shiver in the wind:
The halyards creak upon the sheayes:
The galley smoke curls titfully
To leeward from the stovepipe brown;
And all is cherries where the watch,
| Hungry and cold is washing down"
So breaks another weary day
| Upon Old oceans tickle breast,
Another day for Sailor Jack,
| To whom one day is like the rest;
| Is, like the rest, a treadmill round
| OF duty without change or end,
| Until, paid off, in port he finds
In drink an enemy-and friend.
| Cursed at his labors on the sea,
! Plucked by the plotting crimp ashore,
| He drifts around this careless world,
The conquered and the conqueror.
For though he wins from wind and wave,
| Still he shall lose to drink, his foe,
| Until the present swatch on deck"
Becomes the last long ''watch below

FOOrNOTES.

1t is folly to hurry through work; for
thereby we only make time for more
work.
After all, humility often sups well
while pride goes hungry.
The ideal husband is one who takes
Strawberries home before he eats them
down town.
The public abuses spring poets with
an ardor which seems to imply that
reading spring poetry is compelled by
law.
With some women political enthusi-
asm is like red hair-lovely on other
wOmen's husbands.
The woman who shops always brings
home some useless little piece of fool
ishnesS which she couldn't resist because
it was 80 cute"
