Just where Long Island meets the
ocean at it's most easterly point, there
to-day, as hundred years ago, sits
the little village of East Hampton.
Rev. Lyman Beecher was preaching
some good sermons in the church OF
that village when John Howard
Payne's father moved his family there
and accepted the presidency of Clin.
ton academy. From those sermons,
John Howard, though a mere boy,
caught glimpses of the road over
which the thought of this great preach.
or travelled to wider and broader hope.
1t was a case of the brooklet, while

Even when child John Howard
Payne was engaging and mannerly.
He possessed q remarkably fine ad.
dress and his mind seemed to be pre-.
maturely rich. His father was an elo'
cutfonist as we'll as teacher. Rev.
Lyman Beecher, whom the boy almost
1dolized, was preacher, but neither
OF these vocations quite satisfied the
boy. SO he chose the stage. In 1909,
at the age of II, he appeared in New
York as the Juvenile WONDER" and
for % years thereafter he played sue.
cessfully in both Europe and America.
Few people know Mr.. Payne, ex.
cept as the author of Home, Sweet
Home" but as matter of fact, he
was great dramatist, a great actor,
a great translator. In 1841 he received
the appointment of United States con.
sui at Tunis, Africa. The fact that
practically no satisfactory information
can be found in books of reference re.
garding Mr.. Payne's removal from the
service at Tunis, has given the i'm
preston that some mistake in his
case was made at Washington, which
was never corrected nor made public.
The tone of disappointment in the fol-
lowing statement made by him while
before he died, rather emphasizes that

"Home, Sweet Home" was a mere

SAYS NORTHWEST HAS
GONE FOOTBALL. MAD

Portland.--"Colleges of the north
west have gone football mad. Mil
lions for football; cents for real learn
ing. The fault is in the spirit of the
times which has a tendency to inter-
est itself more in the making Of mon
ey than men. Northwest fathers.
many of them. are so busy amassing
fortunes that they have no time to
learn what kind of an education their
sons are receiving. Consequently foot
ball wisdom fills the newspaper coll
umns in college reports and intellec-
tual prowess remains unmentioned."
This statement was made by Pres
ident L. w. Riley of McMinnville col
lege while in Portland. He added:
I'VE of the northwest have come
to the place for reforming our edu-
catiOnal system. I do not believe in
impracticable training But I would
subscribe to a college curriculum es-
pecially planned to help our young
mon ard women become more effec-
tive citizens in this rapidly develop
ing country of ours. The best prac-
tical opportunities for profitable eff
fort of this twentieth century are
found in the northwest. But we
should get our sons ready to continue
successfully the work we have COM
menced. We should teach them to
conserve the resources of this coun-
try and not encourage them in the
footing nature as a recent writer has
put it. I consider that we of the
northwest are in grave danger of mis-
interpreting the purpose of education
and educational training and our own
sons and daughters will hold US one
day to account for our lack of thought
unless we take thought and follow it
with action now"
