or things more worth while-rather
than those more important things
which we know are the foundations Of
what is true. The standard of true
education is magnanimity and gener-
osity in the things we possess.
s.The object of public education is
to make good citizens. The object of
university education. is to make leaders
of good citizens. The aim of college
training is to rear set of men who
will be leaders in bringing in better
conditions of social good We must
make this clear, for many college-bred
men nowadays seem to have forgotten
that the results of education are to be
reckoned in terms of public spirit.
For an educated man to be content to
draw out of the world more than he
gives back in human service seems TO
me intolerable. a college education
makes it binding on a man to take
some part in making the world better.
1t should be made clear that unless a
college man does something in public
service he is a fraud. The standard
for university men ought to be the
same as for West Point or Annapolis
men. 1t is not regarded as right that
these men should use the training that
they have received for private ends
nor personal gain. The country needs
leadership. The college man who does
not do his part as public-spirited citi-
zen is therefore a sort of traitor.
The last element of education, and
the one to which all others come in the
last analysis, is that the educated man
must have a sound philosophy as the
basis of his life and action. Philoso-
ply today is a neglected study. Few
seem to care to know what the signifi
canoe of the universe is; why it is that
we are here at all, and TO what we are
tending. In a universe that rests on
law there must be an underlying plan.
The educated man should desire, as
far as he may, to bring his life into
accord with the great underlying prin-
ciples. If one has faith that the great
lines are deep lines of good, he will be
ready the better to play his part. just
as one goes 10 a good physician for an
unbiased report on the health of his
child, SO he approaches philosophy as
a guide to life, as the standard by
which to measure up. That any man
should come through college without
getting some idea of the significance
of life seems to me preposterous. If
it is worth while to know well part
of the whole-as we must, each in his
chosen line-how much more worth
while is it to know something of the
whole, of the reason for it all.
Further, the good philosophy shows
that it is good, though costly, order
to which we belong. Costly as it is,
life is on the whole to the good. Even
suffering and pain work out gain, not
loss. Out of sorrow and at heavy cost
men and women are gradually growing
better. From age to age the world
moves slowly to a higher level of trust
and hope. No educated man can blind

April 2, 1902 by the Rev. Charles F. Dole, DID,
of Boston, Massachusetts,.

values! The true effect of sense of
values is that it makes men modest.
ssThe third element in an educated
man should be good temper. We do
not tolerate an ugly horse. Surely the
standard for an educated man ought
to be as good as for horse. No
really trained mind would so lose con.
troll of itself as so many men almost
habitually do. We do not begin to
set the standard that we ought. Edu-
cation is a constant succession of nice
adjustments. The skilled workman
doesn t get mad with his tools. When
the carpenter has a hard wood to
handle he brings to the work an edged
tool of special temper that will do the
duty he has to perform. The educated
man should be able to make adjust
ments in his dealings with his neigh
bors. The control of temper has as yet
hardly come to be valued as test
of education but is it not proper that
it should bes For what is life but
series of adjustments.
fThen moral courage. This is an
element of which today we stand in
especial need. In legislative work, for
example, few men are actually brib-
dDIc, Out now many 1dCh mural COuA-
age Most men would fight on ocea-
sion and fight well, but few are willing
to stand for principle. Charles Sum-
ner was an example of moral courage.
True, he harmed his cause by bad tenn
per and arrogance, but his courage was
unquestioned. independence and moral
fearlessness are what we want in the
educated man. Almost worse than
men s vices has been men s cowardice.
PLATE was not bad man; he was
| weak kneed Almost without exception
the men who have brought disaster are
the men who were afraid. The cow
ardice and negligence of the well mean.
| ing is far worse than the evil intent
| of bad men. Political life everywhere
| needs men with moral courage. Every
state is crying out for men of courage
and Independence.
"Another element of education is
generosity. There is special danger
that college men will be trained to
self indulgence, rather than to generous
giving of means and time, for it is
the giving of one Is self that counts for
more than the mere giving Of means.
There is distinct tendency nowadays
| to value money and the things that
money can buy-and there never was

Mr.. Dole said in part:


CT doubt if any one of us can tell
just what college did for him. As
yet we do not know much about edu-
cation; we are just on the verge of
knowing how to educate. But certain
things about education have come to
be understood, and one of the most i'm
portant of these is that unless eduea-
ton is directed it does not amount to
much. So it seems to me that we may
well consider some of the points that
should be included in one IS education;
some of the elements that the training
of school and college should weave into
the life of the educated man.
.The first of these elements is do
cility; the attitude of openmindedness
When l was in college the value of
this element was brought home to me
through Charles Darwin g books. Open
mindedness is essentially Darwin s
most marked characteristic. Darwin
wanted to hear whatever was fair; to
get at the whole truth; to hear all
sides of the question. The attitude of
the truly educated man should be to
welcome light from any one who can
throw it. We can learn even from our
iseverest critics. Lincoln was a mark
ed example of openmindedness. He
was always ready to hear what any
critic might have to say. He was ever
on the lockout for the truth, and he
was ready patiently to endure abuse
and eensure if he felt he could get at
the right Of case by so doing. Open
mindedness is test of education.
"The next element that enters into
education is modesty. 1t has been said
| that the intellect is always arrogant.
| There seems to be special danger
that the educated man will become con-
ceited. 1t is almost a disease. How
often the man with little knowledge
feels that he is sort of superior be-
ing; that he is set off from and above
| his fellows! This is relic of the
old barbarism. One of the many rel
les that must be done away with. Con-
ceit grows with advancing years, as
every one who has tried to persuade
| men has found out. Tt is much harder
! to convince men than boys, and the
reason for it is that men g minds have
! become set. With added years they
| have lost f1exibility-the ability to
grasp the sense of values. And what
| is education, after all, but sense of

SCHOOL CHILDREN IN PANIC
Explosion Caused a Mad Rush of In
mates TO Escape From Burn
ing Building.

Baltimore, Feb 20.--Five hundred
school children were thrown into a
panic by an explosion in a gas stove
in public school building No. %, but
although numbers of the pupils jumped
from windows or were damned togeth-
er in doorways, no fatalities were re-
ported and none of them was seriously
hurt.
The structure was heated by means
of gas stoves. Just how the explosion
was caused could not be explained by
any of the teachers, but it was thought
some youngster had turned the gas on
too freely. Thus, overloaded with gas
and unable to consume it, the stove
blew up with a roar that was heard for
several blocks, and with force that
shook the building For moment the
children sat stunned with fright, and
then the mad rush developed. Persons
attracted by the sound of the explo-
sion rushed to the spot, to see chill
dren jumping from the windows and
teachers endeavoring to restrain them.
The children somehow seemed to
alight in safety and were seized by
their almost frantic mothers and
borne away.

thing of mixture OF winter and adj

their mantels closer about them as
the chilly winter air was felt Going
home there was warm sunshine and a
tendency to want to loosen garments
In the early afternoon he prospects
of pleasant afternoon enticed many
out, but those who got little distance
from home went hurrying back in a
typical April thunder shower. There
were several loud peals of thunder
which If the old saying has any weight

have heard within the past few days
the chirp OF blackbirds, robins and
other birds. whose appearance are
taken generally as harblngers OF

ably just little too early yet to feel
in any degree sure that winter S over.

WILD RUN OFF LAST SUNDAY
Five Occupants Of Buggy Have .
Narrow Escape From
Iri,trv

From &c World u MONDAY:


A very exciting runaway occurred
asst night on Maple avenue which for
a time looked as IL 1t might terminate
fatally. A party of FIVE young people
had been taking a drive during the
evening and about nine o'clock one OF
the young ladies' was getting out at
her home when from some cause the
horse turned sharply and dished the
left front wheel OF the buggy and
started north on Maple avenue at full
speed.
When the front Of the buggy dropped
it spilled out all the occupants ex-
cept the young man who was holding
the lines. The horse continued to
make good time up the street, with
the young man calling to 1t to stop.
The hub of the demolished whesl was
dragging on the ground, the noise only
frightened the horse and made it run
faster At the corner Of Burke street
he made the turn east and the buggy
went smash into a tree. Everyone
who had been attracted by the runa-
way expected to see the young man
dashed to death, but the contact threw
nm out and fortunately he landed on
his feet and was not injure The
horse tore loose from the harness and
continued to the stable. The buggy
was almost completely wrecked.
Aside from being pretty well covar-
ed with mud and suffering from
nervous shock none Of the party was

CHOPS FATHERS HEAD OFF
Indian Girl Severed Parents Neck to
Save. His Soul.

Winnipeg, Feb 20.-A weird tale of
young Indian girl Staying her father
to save his soul from perdition has
been brought in from the Lake Nipi-
gou country. Returning home after
long hunting trip, an old Indian, named
Zeabe, explained to his family that he
had killed his best friend. Zeabe said
that the homicide had taken place
during a dispute over the possession
of some fox skins.
The murder so preyed on the old
Indians mind that he was unable to
rest or sleep Believing that if he gave
up his own life his soul would be
saved, Zeabe asked several acquaint-
ances to kill him, but they refused.
Going to his own home, he placed an
axe in the hands of his daughter and
commanded her to kill him. She at
first declined, but finally consented.
After her father had said goodby the
girl swung the axe with all her might.
completely severing the neck from the
body.
