PRESIDENT ATTENDS CHURCH.
Pastor Makes Denial of a Published
Statement.

President Roosevelt attended the serv-
ices at Grace Reformed Church. 18th
street. yesterday morning. 1t was the
first appearance of the President in the
church since the return from his sum-
mer home at Oyster Bay. l.. 1. His ia
vorfte hymn. How Firm a Foundation"
was sung. Mr.. Roosevelt joined heartily
in the singing. Rev. DR.. ]. NJ. Schick, the
pastor of the church, delivered the ser
mon.
DR.. Schick was this afternoon shown a
statement published In an eastern daily
today quoting him as saying: when
Theodore Roosevelt comes to this church
he comes just as a poor sinner like the
rest OF us. and will hear nothing but the
word Of God. I have no use for politics
or lectures upon current affairs from the
pulpit" DR.. schick declared he did not
make that statement in that FORM He
said. however. that nothing but the sim
pie gospel will he preached from the pull
pit OF Grace Church while he serves as
pastor.

by a member of the classical faculty and
It's survey is by no means confined to the
classics, but it deals with them as the
fons ct origo And it not only sets forth
the evil Of the present system OF instruc-
ton, but points the way constructively to
a wholesome reform. Starti- : with a
definition of humanism as disciplined
balance Of all the faculties and a state
of equipose between religious absorption
In the one and naturralistic surrender to
the many. Prof. Babbitt then contrasts
with that ideal Bacon's scientific humani-
tarianism and Rousscau's sentimental hui
manitariansm. and shows how these be-
tween them have gradually taken pos

Value of the Classics.
Now the value of the classics lies first
Of ali in the fact that more than any
other study they are able to create that
desired equipose of mind between the one
and the many. But to attain that result
they need for our present life to be pre-
sented In a new manner and to this ext
gency the keepers of the classical tradi7
ton have hitherto shown themselves
blind. The purely linguistic and archie
illogical ransacking of antiquity should

ground, necessary as a preparation but
dangerous as goal AS Quintilian said
long ago: "These studies do no harm to

was less danger in such pedantry than

the memory Of a growing scholar"
That is not the manner of the present
day college president. nor is 1t primarily
the fault Of our teachers that this power
Of the classics as the unique repository
Of human wisdom has passed away. A
hundred years ago Freneau. our first poet,
saw the change that was coming:
This age may decay. and another may rise.
That Latin and eSres chsidaie ssa Greek
To the shades Of Oblivion must certainly sneak
Too much Of our time is employed on such trash
cash."
That other age has arrived, and some
may think We are drilled even too strenu-
ously in practical wisdom-whether We
succeed or not in accommodating cash. But
apart from any such common lowering OF
ideals. which may wen be disputed. II
has grown increasingly clear with time
that wisdom and virtue did not cease
with the writing OF Greek and Latin,
that the world moves from stage to stage.

reverence for the past we may become
blind to the present. Great literatures Of
our own age press upon us with their
various interpretations Of mans destiny.

Where Teachers Err.
For such shifting in the educational

are in nowise. or to a small degree. re-
sponsible. But they are censurable for
their failure to adapt themselves to the
change. They have been thrust from
their pre-eminence IS wardens of the sa-
cred and stationary truth; instead OF
laying hold upon the new aspect of truth.
they have chung desperately and almost
despicably to their linguistic gerund

And how magnificent is the field neg

that every road led to Rome. 1t is still
the fact today that almost every path of
history leads to Rome. and from Rome
to Athens. There began our literature
and our arts: in those two cities grew
up that body of religious and philosophic
ideas that were transmitted into Christi

HrTs'and MRS.

Walsh Go. Record: Poison Car
rots and the hired man own a joint
interest in a running steer. Neither
intended to try to make a living in
running their joint interest. The
steer was bought for other purposes.
It received every advantage to fit 1t
for the meat block, but fatty refused
to get fat. Bran mash and chop feed
were thrust in front of it, but it pass
ed it up like d boy would a wood pile
on circus day. In the pasture, in
stead of eating tender porter house
grass, this steer would race up and
down the field with the flies, and meet
them coming back. Poison and the
bird man would stop work for hours
at a time and watch the red steer 20
through the air. After studying the
Scientific American and other mocha
meal journals they decided to utilize
the steers quick movement in run
ming the farm. After a busy season
of saving and pounding and borrow
ing from, other machinery, they de-
vised a contrivance for the steer I'd
run in. 1T was made to appear to the
steer that it was going somewhere,
when in fact it vas it's running track
that was going. The first day the
steer sawed eight cords of wood and
ran the tanning mill and pumped
water between drinks. The hired
man acted as running mate for the
steer while Poison ran the machinery
and fed in the wood, assisted by a
tall son of a neighbor who had been
invited to participate in the festivities.
The idea was to do all the spring
work for the neighbors and after.
wards exhibit the steer through the
country as the fast OK that had put
the gasoline engine and wind mill
out of business. The hired man bus.

was the hired. mans business to. make

BILE a running hired man, but he sal
down. on the peck measure and went
to sleep, and the steer got one of his
large, hard-boiled eyes on him anc
saw through the scheme. and the ma.
chinery stopped! and was never AGAR
excited by that steer. It was al
over; the lights were out and the cur
tain was down.
