the front door of the school house to
the street. when two boys-Laurence

rush on me, each grabbing one of my
legs and arms, and after swinging me
three times between them threw me
into the snowbank at the bottom Of the
steps. My recollection is there was q
patch Of ice where l landed. / was not
playing with the boys at the time"
DIR. Francis, the attending physician,
states that there was q muscular strain
through the shoulder and q bruise over
the collar bone, but there is nothing
serious and the boy will room be all
right again.
Principal G.. H. Coverdale has given
orders that in the future such rough
playing will have to stop, and more es-
pecially the rough handling Of the

Prof. LowelIs social activities are confined
largely to entertaining these visitors and
the men he has invited to meet them.
He belongs to two clubs, the Tavern and
st. Botolph, whose membership is COM
posed Of artists, scientists, and literary
men. With some twenty-five other men he
participated in the meetings of the Wednes-
day Evening club of 17T7. This organiza-
ton numbers four doctors and four law
yers. while the others are described as
men of literature and leisure" About
twice a year is the average OF his visits
to the two clubs. Though Prof. LowelIs
social standing entities him to admission
to the Somerset club, he never had any
desire to join this exclusive organization
A studiOus Man.
Personally, the new president is a serious
man, with a manner that is hesitating and
different. He does not radiate cordiality,
but he makes ur for this in kindly cour-
tesy and consideration. His life has been
devoted TO study. During the seventeen
years he practlced law-from 1880 until he
was appointed lecturer at Harvard in 1897
me never argued a cause IN court He
dealt almost exclusively in legal questions
connected with estates In probate court and
the management Of investment properties.

Since 1885 he has spent parts OF eight
years abroad studying the governments of
England and continental Europe. Prof.
Lowelrs earliest works on this subject
were expositions OF the administrative sys-
TENS OF the continent. His latest produc-
tion, THE Government of England, -
which has run through three editions and
has been translated into French and Ger
man., occupied the major portion OF his
time for six years.
Abbott Lawrence Lowell married young.
He had just completed the Swear course
at the Harvard Law school in two years
when he married Miss Anna Parker Low
ell Of Boston, a cousin. Singular felicity
has marked his married life, for Mrs. Low
ell has been her husbands companion in
his travels for research and the sympa-
thizer with his ambitions. This dignified,
scholarly gentleman has not outgrown the
tenderness Of his youthful years. for he
still uses the endearing term Pussy to
his wife. as he has since the days when
tho two were boy and girl lovers.-New

a small, demure. diffident woman enters
and welcomes her husbands guests. By the
time the professor appears to greet them the
freshmen are sensitive of a freedom from
restraint that makes the first recollec-
lions OF the evening delightful. There is a
dinner served by maids, during which the
conversation is led to subjects which will
stimulate an interchange OF views and
opinions with respect to the prevailing sys-
tenn at the college.
Prof. Lowell wants to learn the ambi-
tons of his young men, and he puts ques-
tons which are to test the wisdom Of the
general elective policy. He induces the
boys to tell him why they nave selected
certain courses. and he modestly offers his
advice. In the meantime, hi is making
mental notes, to add to his volumes Of
statistics.
Abbott Lawrence Lowell, though he is
So years old, having been born in Boston
on December IS. 1856. proves that It is
possible for a man to retain the elasticity
OF youth and TO approximate. at least, with
tudicious conservation, the athletic prow-
ess Of his college days
The COneEe Spirit.
Speaking OF athletes at college. Prof.
Lowell recently expressed these convic-
lions:
There are men who come here and
devote themselves-except so far as the
dean doesn't permit tito athletics.
Ihere are others who devote themselves
to social life. There are others who de-
vote themselves almost exclusively to
study. Each OF these things ought to be
done. but any man, l believe. is an idiot
who does not do them all. In other words,
any man who devotes himself entirely to
books and doesn't know men, and lets
his body shrivel w. is an ass. he misses
a great deal Of college life.
You can never measure yourself uu
consistently. be It physically or mentally,
except in putting yourself in competition
with other men and seeing whether you
can do 1t and how well you can do IL
compared with somebody else.
And mind you this: II your object in
playing tennis. let US say, Is to play the
largest number OF games In a year, OF
your object in running Is to run as many
races In a year as possible, don't run
with somebody else-lt will impede you

acquiring knowledge. don't compete with
anybody else-just stuff Il away-and n
VIII do you as much good. Just as much
good. as it would to run around the race

Prof. Lowell does not betray much
interest in intercollegiate athletics. He
does not attend the base ball or foot ball
games. but he Is always a spectator al

faculty, he was heard in all the discus
sions in favor Of a strict control Of fhs

YUM-YUM, AND THEM SOME
A Soulful Sign for Return of Buck
wheat Breakfasts of BY
gone Days.

Il have wondered sometimes" said the
amiable head of a voracious family, "why
we didn't have more griddle cakes, wheat
and buckwheat, and that sort OF thing In
our house, because l am very fond of such
cakes, and so are all the children, and Of
cakes in particular 1 have a
very pleasant recollection.
when ] was a boy we used to have al
ways cakes for breakfast in
winter, with fried pork chops or fried sau-
sages. and used to think that a breakfast
good enough for anybody, and I am still
of the same opinion.
"The cakes we used to mix in a batter
pot that was different from any piece NJ
crockery i ever saw, and that I can see
now in my minds eye as plainly as II n
stood before me. a deep, traigh sided.
earthenware pot OF a very dark brown
glaze. and in capacity about a gallon ana
a half. and having in one side of its edge a
pouring lip and on the other side a handle;
the only pot Of just that style and dimen-
sions that l ever saw. and perhaps It was
the only one ever made.
And we valued it highly. I know that
II anything had happened to that pot II
would have been regarded as a household
calamity, familiar to US all as 1t had be-
come through year after year OF use, and
mixing of the batter in il was mighty IA
miliar household rite, the last thing done
In the house In winter before we went to
bed.
Every morning when the cakes were
cooked there was left I'm the pot Just
enough OF the material to serve as yeast
for the next days batch: and every night
the last thing we did was to get out the
buckwheat batter pot and mix up in II the
batter for the next mornings cakes: and
then we would put a loose cover on the
pot and then set Il near the kitchen stove.
where 1t would get a little warmth but not
too much, so that the batter would rise
just right And sometimes it would run
over but not often, for our folks were high
experts In making ~buckwheat batter. and
usually our batter rose just enough to fiji
the pot. rising at the same time to the
highest attainable quality; and then in the
morning the batter was thinned down a
little; so that It would spread just exactly
right when poured on the griddle, and then
the family was ready TO eat 'em.
1T seems 10 me that the pork chops we
had In those days were better than any
TO be had now; they were from locally
raised and fattened pigs. and they we're
very tender and superior, and certainly Il
would be difficult TO find now such sau-

Something About Grove JOhnson,
Leading Anti-Japanese AKitatOF
of California.

This man Grove l.. johnson. who II
stirring up the whole country by his ex-
IRENE anti-Japanese stand in the California
legislature, is a politician OF extraordinary
ability and a speaker of tremendous force
said Judge p. w. Carrier of San Francisco
to a Baltimore American reporter.
HE Is the floor leader of the repub-
licans In the house, and chairman OF the
judiciary committee. The most extreme
measures aimed at the Japanese ever yet
introduced in any legislative body are those
fathered by Johnson. and which were the
direct cause OF Roosevelt's interference.
Grove Johnson was sent to congress a
few years ago, and one day in the house
Of representatives at Washington, was the
principal actor in a very sensational epi-
sode of which i was a witness. 1t seems
that he had incurred the ill-will OF William
r. Hearst by failing to agree with him in
some pending policy, and soon after the
rupture Hearst's papers printed a story OF
Johnson's early life in New York state,
where he lived prior 10 his migration 10
the Pacific coast. The article reflected on
the Californian in a very Injurious way. I
shall never forget how Johpson, rising to
a question of personal privilege. replied to
1t. He at once elected the respectful and
sympathetic attention Of all his colleagues.
eAN hHV Db NnohlbtHf ubuhHy db noisy as

hushed as though a funeral were taking
place. Johnson began by a frank admis-
sion that he had, in the ignorance OF boy
hood, and while living In his native town,
committed a grave fault relating to a bust
ness transaction. He had moved away to
the other end OF the continent, engaged in
hard toll, repaid the trifing sum that had
caused him TO emigrate and had frequently
returned to his former home, where every
body had given him a glad welcome. having
long since forgiven him his youthful folly.
In his adopted home the people must have
thought him a man OF honor and ability
or else they would never have chosen him
as their representative in the congress OF
the United States.
His peroration. In which he scored those
who would, at the end OF a third of a CEN
tury, rake up a boyish sin. was superb, and
when he ended the cheers that went up
from every man IN his audience. repub-
licans and democrats alike. created a tu-
multuous din. the like OF which had seldom
been heard In that historic place. The
cheers were a spontaneous tribute Of re-
speet, and were evidence that his ~self-vin-
dication had been complete"

Prof. Loweli's attitude toward his EN-
ployes gives an insight into his character.
, For seventeen years after he was graduated
from the Harvard law school in 1880 Mr..
Lowell was a member OF a law firm which
included his cousin, Judge Francis C. Low
ell OF the United States circuit court, and
he became a director In a number of mill

The Election.
The Harvard corporation elected Prof.
Lowell to the presidency two days before
the announcement was made. on the after
noon of the day when Il was known that
the deciding meeting had been held one OF
his clerks asked his chief II he had heard
whether the corporation had chosen him to
succeed President Eliot.
No; I know nothing about IT," Prof.
Lowell answered.
Late in the afternoon the next day Mr..
Lowell sent for his clerk and said:
II want to set myself right with you.
When you asked me yesterday II / had been
elected president OF Harvard I said knew
nothing about It. That was true. 1 do not
