One Phase OF Education.

Different standards prevail in diff
ferent institutions. Certain older
institutions in the East have such
social prestige that they attract from
the Weather class young men and
women who seek a college degree
more for the social advantages to be
won in obtaining it than for the
educational benefits it represents.
No such complaint is heard in the
West. Higher education in the West
probably has been hampered more
by a lack of equipment and facilities
and money with which to retain
competent educators than by false
standards and methods.
1t is a big question that these edu-
cational leaders have raised, for it
affects the future citizenship of the
country. Is it possible for our col
lege to train men who, when they
become officeholders, will not prove
to be grafters, or when they become
congressman and senators will not
fight the battle of the protected in
terests against the people? To turn
out such men the colleges must edu-
cate them morally as well as intel
lectualIy. Education without moral
basis or principle is more dangerous
than ignorance without moral basis
or principle. The average American
has been able to hold his own. intel
lectually with the rest of the world
