Education and Character-

Formal education often pretends to
reform those 'who receive it; ana those
who DO not receive it are inclined to
demand model conduct of the school
bred man, and to condemn the school
II its finished product falls to the COM
mon level of weakness and sin. Ac-
cordingly, when Prof. William James,
or Harvard, declared at Chicago uni
versity that academic education does
not insure character, some people said:
we told you so. College education
does not give us better citizens" And
other people, states Youths Compan-
ION, accused Prof. James of turning
against his fraternity, proclaimed the
ennobling influence of university
ideals, and tried to OUTAGE the fact.
For it is fact. Education does not
insure character. True education does
develop character if it has good
human beings to work on. 1t cannot
recreate character. We shall always
behold the spectacle of book-informed
men who lack the simple virtues, and
The corresponding spectacle of men
without experience in schools who are
honest, upright, noble and God-fearing,
notwithstanding their ignorance of
sciences and PHILOSOPHERS. Academic
education is simply an opportunity to
learn what is best, to train the vision
20 high view of right and duty. Like
every kind of opportunity, it is often
presented to a barren or unappre-
ciative SOUL For those to whom it is
presented it creates tremendous re-
sponsibility. The privilege of educa-
ton robs man of excuse for wrong
doing. The man or the woman who
has been to a good college cannot adj
vance the apology of ignorance for
uisdeeds and dull moral perceptions.
We are just in demanding in the col
iege graduate high honor, clear moral
tnsightand honorable intention; where
as we do not with such evident JUS
tice demand fine moral discrimination
CT the man who has had small chance
to learn. If the educated man fails,
however, we cannot'blame higher edu-
cation" The man has not been edu-
lated; he has merely gone through the
(orms.

mad at dad and said: You tn nix you
are smart, don't your and then she
was taken to jail, and dad and l took
an account of the stuff we robbed the
bandits of, and found we had several
hundred dollars, and besides, dad filed
claim against Greece for half mil
lion dollars, for lacerated feelings, and
left it with the consul to collect. so
ii you ever hear of American warships
going to Greece, you will know what is
the matter.
The next morning the soldiers came
into Athens with the bandits tied to
mules, and they threatened to kill dad
on sight so we skipped out but dad
sot his pants back, and so he didn't
have to sail with petticoats on, but
whenever dad meets a Greek gentle
man around home here it is all l can
do to keep him from robbing the
Greek. Say, give me another slice of
that cheese" and the bad boy got up
and stretched himself and yawned.
The old groceryman looked at the
bad boy for minute. and then said:
Either your father ought to be in
the penitentiary or else you are the
condemndest liar in America"

DIVERS DoN'Ts.

Don't expect the same amount of
consideration in the business world
as in the home circle
In business the object is to get as
much work as possible in a given
quantity Of time No one has time
for "fril1s."
Don't take your domestic troubles
into the business world. You are do
ing mans work, and must take les
sons from man, to live two lives.
Don't be always criticising the per-
son who employs you or your fellow
workmen. There is whole lot in
loyalty to the person who pays you,
even If you are doing your duty.

Destruction Of HOLSTERS.

The American people are face to face
with the possibility of lobster fam
the. Reports from the fisheries indi-
cate that the seasons catch is small,
and the markets show only understood
specimens. In localities along the
coast where the Holsters once abound
ed. they are rarely caught. The trouble
comes from that reckless spirit of de-
struction which is shown in other di-
rections. The Holsters have been
caught and sold without regard to re-
plenishing the supply; consequently
che most appetizing and popular OF
shellfish may become an extinct sre-
cies unless haste is made with pre-
ventive measures. Game fish in fresh
waters are protected by state laws,
and the result has been satisfactory
It is urged that the United States as
sumo charge Of the Holsters along its
coasts and by the enactment of laws
forbidding the taking of those under a
certain size prevent the determination
which Is threatened.

Along towards noon we saw dust

American consul at the head, and told
them where the bandits were, drunk

continuously one gets to learn the
rythmic song of the road and how II

"The sixth sense, which is more
than mere hearing. is of the utmost
value to a driver during fog. Denied
the use of his eyes. he still does not
lose his way when he is on a famil-
lar road
A driver cannot learn new road

PHILADELPHIA MUMMERS.
Thousands Expended Yearly For Cos
tunes Worn by the Members.

Peter Moran, captain OF the Red
Onion Shooters Club, was taken TO
the Jefferson Hospital during the New
Years parade He tainted after
marching three miles under the
weight of his costume, which was
carried by eighty-seyen pages and was
Of such imposing dimensions that the
captain could not turn in Broad
street"
Nowadays, from two 10 three thou
sand mummers are in the conSOlidat-
ed parade, and the money prizes have
grown to a total Of nearly ten thou
sand dollars. Upper-class Philadel-
phia has condescended TO find diver
sion in this pageant, so the mummers
march up on Broad street. and pass a
reviewing stand at the city hall. just
like any commonplace demonstration.
The first prize attainable for the
finest club display is five hundred dol
lars. Last year the Thomas Clements
Club members and their friends spent
more than twenty thousand dollars in
the effort to capture the champion
ship 1t was their proud boast that
not suit in the line had ever been
on the street before" Capt Duffy
was presented by this club. In his
wake trailed cavaliers. more mon
archs, harleQuins, and strings of cOur-
tiers whose trains weighed down
pages by the score. When you con-
slider that other clubs were out 10
surpass the Clements" and that the
decision for first place gave the
judges some headaches, it is cOnser-
vative to declare that this Philadel-
phia show deserves more than local
attention. Last year the clubs in line
had more than one hundred thousand
dollars worth of costumes to display.
How can these wage earners sustain
the breaking strain year after year?
Partisan pride does miracles of f.
nance. The most prominent clubs en-
roll their members by hundreds. Ev-
cry man of them contributes through
the year his assessment of one or two
dollars month. and without any vio-
lent effort the war chest in furnished
with a fund of several thousand dol
lars. The political leaders of the dis
trict go into their pockets for sub
scriptions, which are as bread scat
tered on the waters. The shopkeep-
ers of the neighborhood are ready to
add their bit to the bulwarking of
local prestige, and so from many
sources the revenues of the Shooters
Club filter in. AS for the eager and
vainglorious captains, such a one has
been known to slap mortgage on his
house or shop to rally a desperate
finish for the king with the biggest,
longest, finest setting.-Ralph D.
Paine in Outing.
