POINTS IN POLITICAL GAME
ambitious Young Man Is Told
First Lesson in Politics Is to Know
"Star-SpangIed Banner"

Having decided to go into politics.
young man applied to district lead
sr for some points in the game. The
boss handed him The Star-Spangled
Banner" words and music.
Know that?" he asked.
The young man confessed that he
did not, except the first few lines.
Then" said the district leader,
the first thing you've got to do is
to learn it by heart, every word and
every note. Go home and practice till
you can sing it with as much voice and
musical feeling as you have. 1t will
carry you over many strip of thin
Ace. Every successful politician in the
land has been saved from defeat at
some critical moment by his ability to
sing The Star-Spang,ed Banner II
the fellows who have failed had known
how to sing it, maybe they wouldn't
have fallen with such a thud.
Later may have few more use
full hints to impart. but make no mis-
take, the A b G of the political game
is a working knowledge of The Star
Spangled Banner New York Sun.

Seeing America.

From the Philadelphia Press.
Our own continent is we'll worth seeing
and the great army OF American travel
ers who overflow Europe every year
ought to make themselves acquainted
with this side of the Atlantic as well as
the other. The popularity Of ocean voy-
aging will account in part for the trans
atlantic trend of American travel. and
the opening Of the Panama canal will
start a large quota of it in other direc-
tons.
The whole Pacific coast up to Alaska,
the islands Of the Pacific and the coast OF
South America will be brought into the
fashion and become the objective point
of tourists. In addition to the change
which the canal will make In the direc-
ton, quantity and character of trade the
breaking down of the wall of division be-
tween the two oceans will start stream
of tourist travel through the Panama
canal to the many points of interest and
attraction on the hemisphere within reach
of steamship transportation.
See Europe by all means. but see Amer
lea too, and see it well. 1t Is a great
and interesting country. as well as Il big
one. and should be studied and made IA
miliar. Americans appreciate this more
and more every year, and home travel
steadily increases. 1t is inevitable that
the opening of the Panama canal and
the worlds fair to celebrate that event in
California will give it a new impetus.

English and Greek in Germany.
ON the New York Trihnn,

FROM Inc New 1OTk 1rlpuile
The logic Of practical needs in Ger
many appears to be more powerful than
the kaiser. Only a short time ago En-
peror William in an address to the stu
dents of the Friedrich Gymnasium. at
Wilhelmshohe Castle, devoted himself
chiefly to praise Of the class cs, and par
ticularly to strenuous urging Of the
study of Greek, both as n technical dis
cipline for the mind and as means OF
imbuing the students with the spirit of
the Hellenes and with that harmony be-
tween public and private life which was
one OF the fruits Of Greek culture. 1t may
be that he meant tbs address to be a pro-
test against the tend ncies which he had
noticed in German academic life. If so,
ne must have been disappointed at the
result.
For the new movement in the German
gymnasia goes right on. and II involves
the precise opposite of what the kaiser
desires. More attention is being given
to physical training, which is conducted
more according to the English system
quired for this is taken from that which
was formerly given to the classics. Nor
is that all. nor the worst. from the
katser's point Of view. The study Of the
Greek language and literature is being
materially Iessened and the study OF
English Is being substituted. 1t liz doubt
full If a more radical change than this
could be devised for the gymnasia. In
which Greek has always been a predomi-
nant study.
