COMPLAINS OF COLLEGES
Do Not Turn Out Capable Men-Says
San Francisco Paper.

Unler the heading, "a Severe In
dictment," the Educational Review re-
prints from the San Francisco Argo-
naut statement concerning the quail
tiles of our college-bred young men
which it would be difficult to match
in the anti-college utterances of re-
cent years, numerous and sweeping
as these have been. ''In recruiting
its service" says the Argonaut, speak
of its own experience, trial has again
and again been made of the college
bred youth, but never with any ap-
proach to success. We have never
yet been able to find college-brel
youth, without long subsequent pra:-
teal drill, who could write clean En-
glish, or who could even write hand
which the printer could read. Not
one of those from Frank Pixley
down, whose work in the ArgonaIt
has been an element in it's character
and influence. has been a man of COL
lege breeding. This remark applies to
other publications of the country rep
resentative of journalism in its higher
rank. 1t is only a few months ago
that there was assembled at a dinner
table in the Century Club at New
York little group representing the
very highest forces in American jour-
misunderstanding the editor of Har-
per's Weekly, the then editor of the
Century, and others of equal note
when, through chance inquiry, it de-
veloped that only one present was a
college-bred man. And more to the
same effect. But the trouble with
this sort of general denunciation is
that it obviously overshoots the mark.
The element of truth in the Argo-
naut's complaint would be much more
forcibly brought home if presented
with more balance. The fact is that
neither in our colleges nor in our high
thorough and exact mastery of intel
lectual tasks as does the German
Gymnasium or the English public
school-with results that are evident
in many ways, though not justifying
a view so gloomy as that of the Argo-
naut.-The New York Nation.

TO SHOCK vAso-MoToR SYSTEM
Women Gossip to Avoid Suffering
From Ennui Scientist Says.

fTOITl cn0uI SCtCTIlSl Gays,
CHICAGO.-Women like to gossip
because the news of the terrible things
the neighbors have done gives a pleas
inS shock to their vaso-motor sys-
tens. Unless the vaso-motor system
receives a goodly share of shocks the
individual suffers from ennui.
At least this is the theory which
William /. Thomas, professor of So
GEOLOGY at the University of Chicago
and inventor of the term "the adven-
titious character of woman" present ed
to the delegates of the National Lea
que of Handicraft Societies.
Our primitive ancestors led excit-
ing lives" Prof. Thomas said. 1--WE
share the appetite for excitement
which their experience built up in the
race, and, different as our occupations
and amusements are from theirs, we
enjoy them in proportion as they pro-
vide the shocks to the vaso-motor sys-
tenn which they got out of hunting,
fighting and escaping from dangerous
animals. We crave shocks.
perhaps that is the reason some
women love husbands who beat them"
