Educated pubio sentiment is over looked, caioled. or ignored, and great expectations defeated: there is even an arbitrary censorship placed on the university press.
 The honored name and example of the one largest pecuniary benefactor to Yale, Hon. Joseph E.

 Let all Yale faculties unite with the corporation in explaining the incon sistency in regulating the varied posi- tions and departments of standard university of learning, of having dis tingushed ex-professor of political economy in any manner displace the university chaplain, or the dean of the school of divinity, or a better qualified theological scholar and spiritual, relig- iolls teacher. and expect a general or other special scholar to open the vast chambers of theological thought and sanctffied, inspired learning, and to inn press the lessons of the Christian church and Divine Revelation: whereas the theory and former practice of Yale university. and the greatest seminaries of learning the world over. is to recog- nize the absolute necessity of strictly spiritual instruction and guidance of all students in early impressiona ble stages of their pursuits D teachers consecrated to that distinct work.

 Several most prominent vacillating incumbents of office even when can didates for still higher public station, have personally violated the sanctity and sacrificed the national institution of the Christian Sabbath. prostituted federal traditions and interests, and impaired the former universal respect fer courts of law, judicial proceedings and constitutional provisions: they have perverted and misapplied the doctrines or platforms of their own party and imperiled or destroyed sta pic, Fundamental private and corporate business interests. Justly viewed, there has prevailed of late in the con- spicuous class of public servants. a pernicious habit which should be toll erated no longer.

Five Rules for Women Takers

In the November Woman's Home
Companion q contributor advises
women OH talk. Five rules are laid
down.
1. Don't tell long stories, or even
short ones, unless you have an espe-
cial gift for 1t.
2. Remember that talking about
yourself is an indulgence, and, -
such, should be strictly limited.
8. II another woman tells you Of
some sensation or experience Of her
own, don't Immediately cap II with
one Of yours. "Swapping tastes" 10
of the lowest order of conversation. I
have been In circles where the talk
consisted Of each woman taking her
turn In telling how she thought or
felt about some commonplace sub
iect, such as the digestibility Of shell
fish, or liability to colds.
4. Never lose consciousness Of the
proportion of the talk you are usurp-
ing, and, II you are taking more than
your share, be sure that the quality
matches the quantity.
s. Discriminate always between
talk for your own pleasure and talk
for your friends. People constantly
tell the stupidest anecdotes because
these have become charged with
some extraneous charm impossible
to transmit. Perhaps the occasion
when it took place was important be-
cause some particular person was
there, and every detail Of 1t has taken
on radiance visible only to the mar
rator.
