Strange University Teachings

Parents are frequently %dismayed. when their
children return from college. to learn some Of the
ideas that have been instiIlcd in their minds. Our
great colleges are culture tubes for some Of the most
startling theories ever devised. Free love. socialism,
and similar creeds are discussed and advocated in
places where practical people would hardly look for
such ideas to be sustained. Harold Boice has
visited many Of our great colleges and universities
within the past year, and has set down just wha, is
being taught. You will be as,onished at many of
the things Mr.. Boice will tell you about our best
known universities.

Henry Watterson on Lincoln
February II. 1909, is the centenary Of the
birth Of Abraham Lincoln. 1t has been said tina.
more has been written about this majestic, somberly
pathetic figure than abou, any other man except
Christ. The place OF Lincoln in history is fixed for
all time, and whatever may be written in the future
can add little or nothing to the sublimity of his life
and his achievements,
Colonel Henry Watterson. who. perhaps better
than any other. can write sympathetcally Of the
work and life Of the martyred President, will con-
tribute an appreciation Of Lincoln TO the March
number of the Cosmopolitan.

pert with each succeeding victim.
From the fakir at the fair grounds to
