PHILOSOPHY POINTERS.

People who joke do so because they
are unhappy for out of the emptiness
of the heart the mouth speaketh.
The people that get there in life are
the ones that row, not drift.
We should strive for principles just
little ahead of our practice.
Only babies in their first exuber'
ance Of infancy cry for the moon.
Not what we gain in knowledge but
how we gain it that counts.
Only amateurs are affected by the
esthetic temperament.
1t Is often iu our utmost desolation
that the greatest truths dawn upon us
It is quality not quantity in life that
counts.
We only need fear fanaticism from
people of worldly ideals.
People who take themselves seri
ously by others.
The greatest tragedies of a mans
life are the things that never happen
Outlines conscientious efforts are
just as heavily penalized as the black
est deeds.
A hot headed woman and cool
headed man ought TO make a temper
ate couple.
Brotherly deeds seem to exist prin,
cipally among men who wear the same
kind of buttons.
Men who decorate themselves with
medals and badges have no other way
Of shoYing the world their great deeds
People who will not listen to evi
dence which tells against their belief
nave not the mentality to hold a
strong belief

Under the governmental plan each

through subordinate boards in each

The elementary schools come first.
Few government establishments have
yet reached full college grade, largely
because of lack of money, but in many
cases because of lack of students who
have progressed in western learnig

work. late statistics report the total
number of educational institutions in
China at 35,lSS, of which primary
schools number 1920, high schools,
colleges, girls seminaries, and indus

They report 63,937 persons engaged
in educational work, 55,24O being at

several institutions there are S74,e42
students, of which 7SO,325 are of ele-

the population of China, this gives
one student for each 464 Inhabitants.
These figures, while not showing ex-

China (the Yangste Valley. which Is
somewhat rival movement However,
II is understood that the work of the
governor of Hongkong has been sue
oessful, and that the Hongkong uni
versity is to be realized at once.
The design of the governor is to es-
tablish a university in Hongkong of
such a scope and standing that the
young men of China may secure an
advanced education and degrees equal
to those granted by universities in
Europe and America. The university is
to be nonsectarian, although not free
from moral Influence and restraint.
For example, students from mission
colleges in China attending the uni.
versity are to be maintained in mis-
sion houses, corresponding to frater-
nifty houses in American universities,
while those students from Chinese gov
ernmental schools, whom II is desired
to keep apart from mission influences,
will be in similar establishments con.
tfolled by proper Chinese authority.
While the university is to be non.
sectarian, it is calculated to advance
British interests In China For this
reason there is said to be more or less
quiet opposition to the enterprise in

MUTUAL GUARANTY OF DEPOSITS
Springfield Republican.

Such laws as have been enacted In
Oklahoma, Kansas and Nebraska,
bringing state banks into a mutual
guaranty of deposits now have their
constitutionality affirmed by the I'm.

calculated to cover with some confus-

the west which pronounced such laws
invalid as in the nature of taking pri

time that If laws providing for a mu-
