HOPE LIES IN DEMOCRACY.
Declared Keynote Of Present Century
bv Harvard's President.

Cambridge, Mass, Jan. 22.-"The
great movement OF the world today Is
toward democracy. The great Keynote
of the present century that we are
Just entering upon, Will be democracy
in all things. one hundred years from
now THE population of our country,
which is now for most part wilderness,
will be beyond any present conception,
and this great nation will be the most
democratic the world has even known.
The progress of democracy Will be the
great feature of the advance of civilt-
zation in the present century. III this
is TO be sound the character of the
people must be as sound as their pro-
ficiency in the arts, in commerce ana
III government"
This was the stirring prophecy of the
future of the nation with which Presi-
dent Charles w. Eliot of Harvard uni
versity began his lecture on "A Just
Reverence Consistent With Genuine
Democracy" in the lecture room Of the
Prospect Union yesterday afternoon.
Reverence Changed, Not Destroyed.
Though critics of democracy claim
that democracy has destroyed some OF
the finer characteristics Of the older
days, such as reverence of children
toward parents. pupils toward their
teacher, the people toward their rulers,
there Is in all these relations more
genuine relation than formerly, al
though their relations have changed"
continued President Eliot
mo nation in the world has such
reverence for women as have the men
of the great republic. Our reverence
for symbols has diminished, but not
for the ideals which these material
signs of religion and love of country
stand for
Consistent With Civilizations Advance
Such belief as this toward the eff
feet of democracy is the only one con-
sistent with a belief in the permanent
duration of democracy and a belief in
the pernnanence of this is necessary for
a belief in the advance of civilization"
was President Eliot's closing sentence.

Cabinet Families.

Wben people talk about d-fashioned families, it is rather vague saying, as for instance. take the officialdom in Washington. President Roosevelt has the largest number of children in the executive set. six and the Vice Presi. dent is q close second with five. The Postmaster General and Mrs. Cortel- you have four children. two girls and two boys. and the Secretary of Agri- culture has tie s.,.ile number three boys and one girl. The Secretary of State and Mrs. Root have two boys, Elihu. Jr.. and Edward. and one daugh- ter, Miss Edith Root. Three is the favorite number of children in the cabinet families. The Shaws have two daughters and one son. the Tafts have two sons and one daughter. The Hitch cocks have three daughters. The Sec. retary of Commerce and Labor and Mrs. Metcalf have two sons, one of whom is in the army and the other student at Annapolis.

 "Ask her what she desires?"

Joan Of the Sword Hand leaped down
OF her own accord and came forward
10 meet her new sister.
The face OF the princess showed a
trace OF emotion, She appeared to be
struggling with some recollection she
was unable TO locate with precision.
