Modern P...lon for oi.pI.x.

1t was n century and half ago
that Benjamin Franklin wrote that
"idleness and pride tax with heavier
hand than kings and parliaments, E"
but his message comes with peculiar
force to the people of this day and
generation. Perhaps idleness is no
greater vice than in Franklin's time.
but the sort Of pride that taxes mems
pocketbooks never before flourished
as now. The desire of the poor to
ape the rich. the universal effort and
determination to keep up appearance
for appearance sake, is one OF the
curses Of this age. That hollow ap.
pearaLces are but tokens of superfic.
lal minds too few understand Men
and women of moderate means as
pire to make the same display in
spending money that ttc'~ more
wealthy neighbors do. and, when adj
vcrsity comes, finding themselves
with no money saved they realize too
late. as Franklin would say that they
have paid too dearly for the whistle

LATIN AMERICA ESSAYS.
Prizes offered by American Minister
to Columbia.

Approaching that few Americans
have anything like AS much knowledge
as they should possess concerning
South America and Central America
Mr.. John Barrett, American minister
to Columbia, has offered three prizes
through President Butler of Columbia
University for the best papers or es
says on the relations of the United
States TO the Latin American Repub-
lies, to be competed for by students OF
American colleges.
The subjects are divided into classes
the first of which bears on the rela-
lions Of the United States to the Latin
American republics. while the second
pertains more directly to the historical
and political development of Latin
America without regard to the United
States.
The following Is statement of the
two classes of subjects upon which es-
says arc invited:
Glass J.. Political and Economic
a. The Monroe doctrine and its in
fiuence on the political and economic
development Of Latin America. t2)
The influence Of the Panama canal on
the commercial and political develop
ment of Latin America. (3) Present
conditions and future possibilities Of
the trade of the United States with
South America. az The present ma
terial and economic progress of South
