THE MAGAZINES

"ShalI the University Become Busl-
ness corporatlon7' is a pressing question
which is very ably discussed by President
Henry S. Pritchett Of the Massachusetts,
Institute of Technology, in the September
Atlantic. Standing, as he does, at the
head Of one Of the greatest technical
schools Of the United States, which is
widely known as a model of executive
perfection, President Pritchett's wise and
moderate plea for better balanced Coz
operation between the intellectual and the
business powers of the university will att
tract wide attention. His conclusion Is
momentous.
For, after all, we can never too often remind
ourselves that the first purpose Of the university
is not to further Industrial development to
increase the wealth Of state, but that 1t is
the development of the intellectual and spirit
ual life. This development can take place only
In the air OF freedom, however. evident are the
dangers which freedom brings with 1t. Wealth,
power, the niceties of life, may all grow in
an atmosphere of limited or, of artificial free
dom. but only In the air Of real freedom can be
grown that spirit and that intelligence which
shall minister to those things which are spirit
ual and to those things which are eternal.

a Civil Service Dodge.

The politicians of New York sit up
nights to find ways and means OF beat
ing the civil service law. The Boston
Herald has frequently exposed one OF
the best schemes of the statesmen, one
by which certain DR.. Hale, who took
civil-service examination, was de-
frauded of the honors and emoluments
which were his due, and a politician
who was ''right'' succeeded to the
place in controversy. DIR. Hale took
his grievance to the supreme court and
has recently. obtained q decision ousting
his competitor and recognizing his
rights.
The facts as brought out on the trial
of the case are that Dr.. Hale passed
civil-service examination held for SUI
perintendent and assistant superintend-
ent of public baths, and was third on
the eligible list. One Worstell, who al
ready held subordinate position in
the department as an attendant, was
seventh on the list, and one Murphy,
another subordinate, came out with a
standing that made him seventeenth in
rank. a-,
When it came time to make the APP
pointments, DR.. Hale, tho highest OF
the eigibles, did not get any considera-
ton. BY clever. g transfer Worstell
was made assistant superintendent and
quickly promoted to superintendent.
Murphy was likewise transferred and
made assistant superintendent as soon
as Worstell was promoted. +.
After a full trial, DR.. Hale has now
secured a decision in Judge Gaynor's
court, and Worstell and Murphy are to
| be ousted. ~.
| In the absence of a civil-service law,
the method by which Worstell and Muir
ply were promoted might have been
the proper one. They were subordin'
ates. If they were competent subor'
dinates, they were entitled to promo
1 ton. But with the law strictly en-
forced, their rights were inferior tc
| those of man who had no connection
with the department, but who was
eligible to go over their heads because
he had answered some, perhaps fancy
questions better than they.
The politicians tried to get past the
civil-service law, but they failed in this
instance because DR.. Hale defended hi
rights. But how many times do they
succeed, and how many people are trot
ting about taking civil-service examina
lions and waiting for appointments
which will never Gomez
