Brain and Brawa.

Prof. Arlo Bates, Maine author and
graduate of Bowdoin, in a recent arti-
Gle in the Forum says: Personally. l
find 1t impossible not to feel that the
prominence given at the American uni
verSltles and schools to athletics is 4
menace to their influence for good to
the public or to students. The intellec-
tual ideal may not have been abandoned
or degraded; it most certainly has been
ebscured. The effect upon the univer-
stiles which has been brought about by
modern athletics is more grave, because
more far-reaching, than any immediate
effect upon individuals. The well being
OF the student is serious matter, but
it is, after all, of less real consequence
than any vital deterioration in the
character of institutions of learning.
Social prominence in colleges to day is
SO largely dependent upon physical
proves that whatever power scholar
ship should have in this direction has
been much discredited. The institu-
tions which are nominally the conser-
vators of the intellectual ideals of the
nation introduce students into society
where intellectual distinctions have
sunk into secondary place. Instead
of being four years in an atmosphere of
learning and of mind, the youth is dur
ing his college course constantly i'm
pressed by his surroundings with the
idea that success is to be won rather by
the body than by the mind; and that
learning may be disregarded for more
snowy and ephemeral accomplish
mentS."

w. w. Birth. 1t seems to me he takes
things too seriously. 1 have heard my
mother say that John Randolph boarded at

the Franklin House. That much is settled
What surprises me. however, is that Mr.

for my edification) on sarcasm" ere

who never INDUCES in anything forbid
den,' even denying himself the pleasure of
good repartee, this same gentleman has
for years and years lever since he was "a
boy In his teens" and saw John Randolph
coming out of the Franklin House, cherish
ed unbounded animosity for John Ran
dolph. And why? Not for any personal
grievance, but solely because Randolph was
sarcastic disposition" and as 'all things
come to those who wait" so this highly
esteemed gentleman has at last found his
chance to give vent to his feelings of aver
sion for John Randolph Although 1.-THE

with what great satisfaction he related his
recollections of John Randolph which he
.candidly admits he collected from the.
magazines. If this act is not tinged with
malice then have judged incorrectly. If
was inclined to sermonize 1 might remind
this gentleman of line in the Bible which
he seems to have overlooked: "He that
hateth his brother is murderer''-and lest
forget 1t l will now inform Mr.. w. W.
Birth that am in the habit of listening to
sermons delivered by those who try to
practice what they preach" I feel fiat
tered that this esteemed gentleman has de-
cided to preserve my Defense Of John
