An entirely unromantic Austrian
count. who has lived In New York
some years concealing hts title and
earning his bread. has just found 1t
necessary In getting marriage II.
cense TO reveal his secret He came
to America to escape the dull conven-
tons imposed by his rank at home,
and Is so we'll content with social
freedom that he will never return TO
Austria. This is not the kind OF no
bleman that marries an American
heiress In church decorated with
$4,000 worth OF roses, but he will
make no worse American citizen ON

Press Comment
Retiring the College Professor.

4
Compulsory retirement OF a man
in intellectual life, a college profess
scr for example, at any specified age,
is an apparent absurdity To say
that an intellectual man is incom-
petent to teach at the age of seventy
is silly aspersion Very often a
man is at the height of his intel
lectual ability at seventy or seventy
FIVE.
Mental powers are not to be gov
erned by rules applicable to the di-
intuition of physical yigor. If Presi-
dent Eliot, now seventy-seven years
of age, withdrew from the presidency
OF Harvard, it was because he desired
more opportunity to study, not be-
cause he was in the slightest degree
incapaCitated from the brilliant per-
Torrance Of duty. DeMorgan, the
novelist, one of the most brilliant
of English writer's, did not begin his
works Of fiction until he was nearly
seventy, and there are countless in
stances of vigorous thinkers and
teachers who have passed the allotted
age Of three score and ten.
Compulsory retirement from mill
tary service at prescribed period OF
life is often unnecessary and unwise
How much more unreasonable is the
age of limitations OF intellectual
achievement.

The Danger of Militarism.


Sometime ago Brazil had navy
that in the hour of need turned its
guns upon her. Now it comes to
pass that good part of the Chinese
army has gone into revolt and taken
up arm against the government that
created It,. Here are two cases in
point that illustrate the danger OF
building UP useless military estab-
lishments, if you choose to consider
II that way. The United States has
already had a standing army as a
nucleus in the event of war as a po-
Ice force in time of peace. 1t has
never been strong enough to over
power or menace the government If
it should go into revolt, which 1t has
never done. The wars Of the United
States both civil and foreign have
been fought largely by volunteers
and the call for troops to put down
rebellion, repel invaders or to right
the wrongs Of the oppressed has
never been UNDECIDED The Prae
torian Guard of Rome is a familiar
illustration OF what unbridled mill
tarism leads to. There are many
useful lessons to learn If we will
just look around us and see what is
being done in other countries With
out standing army as nucleus with
our well organized nations guard
and our millions of patriotic citizens
ready to spring to arms at the call
OF duty the United States Is safe
