FAKE DEGREES.

The New York Times has recently
brought to light the fact that one
need not go to college to obtain a
degree. Startling as this statement
is, it bears up under Investigation
and is one which should be given
prompt attention by American edu-
Gators.
In Chicago and Washington d. C.
are institutions from which a decree
of A. b. or Phi. ID. may be obtained
by one who perhaps never saw the
inside of a college building. That
dc grees should be sold for S75 or
$100 through a purely commercial
enterprise is menace to the stand
ing of American scholarship. Insti-
tutiOns in which the road to Phi. d.
is still difficult may well join in the
investigation. Soon a degree alone
will not be sufficient The employer
to protect himself will be forced to
ask, not only, Have you a degree?"
but also, From where?"

Quencies the poet wrote:
"Vice is a monster of such hideous
mien
That to be hated needs but to be

1t is said that the best evidence of
a mans progressive civilization is
found in the way in which he
achieves his own revolution and the
use he makes of it. Is not that
et Tally true of journalism, or any
other profession?
More and more journalists are be-
ing concerned with government that
is best for people rather than prop
erty. The changing attitude is not
necessarily altruistic, for it is being
realized as never before, perhaps
that what is best for the people viii
in the end be best for the property.
All value of property depends upOL
its usefulness to people.
Any journalist who will pay the
whole price of success in his grea;
profession may be crowned by botf
fame and fortune. One part of tha;
price will win fortune, another part
perhaps win fame; but the whole
price must be paid for both. There

\ CHANCE OF A LIFETIME.

The students at the University of
Missouri enjoy one distinct advant-
age which is not afforded those of
many other state institutions. 1t is
the opportunity to obtain some
practical, working knowledge of the
Bible. The Bible College is offer
ing several courses for University
credit which it will be worth the
while of any man or woman to take
regardless of his or her religious be-
liefs.
Lincoln said the Bible and Shake
speare We're the two most essential
studies for an all-round. practical
education. Most persons in the Uni
yersity have studied some of Shake
speare's works and many will take
up more of them. Few, however,
realize the opportunity they have to
study the Bible in such a way as to
gain a really valuable conception of
it. The Bible College at the Univer-
Sity of Missouri fills a place which
can be supplanted by no Church or
Sunday School

GENERAL READING

Is the University library for ref
erence work only? No. But very
few students use it to much advant-
age for any other purpose. There is
a distinct culture value IN general
reading. there are all sorts of books
and magazines and other reading
matter in the library. but to have the
students realize this opportunity
and to profit by it is the problem
1t may not be altogether the stu
dents fault. Many have developed
the reading habit. but when they
find themselves in the library it is
with a list of references in hand
and the pressing knowledge of some
particular piece of work to be done
There is little or no time for gener-
al reading.

DON'T FORGET THAT 3 O'CLOCK

1t isn't expected that students
will loaf around during the opening
days and delay entering up until the
very last chance. These days of
registration are allowed for the pur-
pose of getting things in shape for
the beginning of classes. Those
who wait have no reason to G, umble
when they find the course they
wanted already full and closed.

stinct of an editor may be greatly
out of harmony with his environ
ment.
Martyrdom is absolved from fool
ishness only by the facts. The land
is full of editors who, too eagerly
seek near-martyrdom for the sake of
cause or a party. "Pernicious Ac-
tiyity" is frequent blunder which
calls forth the cry of the victim
Good Lord, deliver us from our
friends. Our enemies We can con-
quer"
The Great Teacher said, Blessed
are ye when men revile you, and
persecute you, and say all manner of
evil things against you, falsely, for
my sake"
Many who would be political mar
tyrs seeking editorial martyrdom
for revenue only, appear to think
that the falsely" should be omitted.
The relentless power of the nat
ural law of truth in the editorial
world is the same as elsewhere. Why
not rely on it more? TruthfulnesS
being condition of mind, and truth
blindness being fully as prevalent
as color blindness, and possibly
somehow related to that congenital
inefficiency, it is not expected that
many editors could tell nothing but
the truth all the time. But no one
will deny that there is room for
some improvement. The confidence
of the people in the press has been so
shaken that many read editorials,
when at all, more for confirmation
than for instruction, and doubt at
any deviation from their own pre-
judice or opinion. Thousands of ed
ucated newspaper readers, and their
numbers are increasing, habitually
skip the editorials
What Sir Walter Raleigh said is
as true of newspaper as of a man:
The gain of lying is nothing else but
not to be trusted by any, nor TO be
lie believed when We say the truth"
Swift said: Although the devil
be the father of lies, he seems like
other great inventors, to have lost
much of his reputation by the con-
tirual improvements that have been
made upon him."
More and more the power of the
press is being weakened-needless
weakened-along this line. Is it
not cause for grave consideration,
even after full latitude has been CIV
Gil for honest differences of editorial
opinions? If youth loses faith in
his favOrite newspaper, he next loses
faith in law, in civic wisdom, then in
civic honesty. Then he degeneratcs
into an attitude of defiance to civic
authority. After that it is but short
step to the conviction that the worst
crime consists in being found out.
There is deplorable evidence of
this in crime that is now forcing a
morbid public interest, whoever may
he proved to be the perpetrator.
The old Maxim, THE king can do
no wrong" is responsible for a great
many other wrongs
In our republic the next express
sion of that basic error would be,
The people can do no wrong" Then
would follow, "The party can do no
wrong" Then, 1.-The party boss can
do no wrong. So of course, "the
party organ" can do no wrong. Then,
why is it wrong for his staff to do
what the editor does?"

might be required to make some re-

these hours were counted on the
schedule then the problem of time
would be solved. There would hard

ularity CT such a course.

tHANT UNION BANK INQUIRY
Depositors Organize to Learn
Facts About Brooklyn Failure.

Eight or nine hundred of the twenty
three thousand depositors OF the defunct
Union Bank Of Brooklyn met at No. 1884
Fulton street last night and formed COM
ruittee 20 investigate the condition Of the
assets OF the bank and learn II any per-
sons are criminally liable for the failure
Of the institution. The chairman Of the
committee is p W Firmin, president Of the
2Sth Ward Board OF Trade, and the treas
urer is Clarence b. Smith. president OF the
Fulton Street Board Of Trade.
The Union Bank went under in the hnan-
ciai depression Of 1850. II reopened In Au-
gust, 1908, when Il borrowed 81, 5000 from
various Manhattan banks TO pay the money
due its depositors. II continued In busi-
Tess until April 5, 1910 when Il was closed
by the State Banking Department. The
bank then had twenty-three thousand de-
positors and s3.50000 in deposits
The banks assets consist Of mortgages
and notes, which are slowly falling due
II still owes the Manhattan banks $4,000
Of the loan made In August. 1905 and. the
depositors cannot get any money until this
debt is paid. Henry Nieand. jr., one Of
the leaders at last nights meeting, said
that the depositors could not expect 10
get any money for four or five years.
