Is eternally of compelling interest. Man is greater than his greatest achievement.
 ''The university problem Is stated thus in a recent editorial in the London Times: We often hear it said that learning should have practical purpose, and that sounds reasonable enough until we in quire what is meant by practical. Then we usually find that practical means money getting. We are told that learn ing is only valuable If 1t helps a man in the struggle for life. But If that is ever generally believed. the universities will change their nature and our civilization will become only an elaborately organ ized barbarian. Universities rose into being and flourished in power and splen- dor because their business was to help not the individual in his struggle for life, but the world in it's efforts to rise above the struggle for life
 Socrates Views
 "In the Apology Socrates is made to say; For I do nothing but go about per suading you all. old and young alike, not to take thought for your persons, or your properties, but first and chiefly to care about the greatest improvement of the soul Before he drank the hemlock his friends asked Socrates: How shall we bury youI' AS you please was his re- ply, but first be sure that you have me If we truly associate with the great poets and thinkers of the race, we care little for the glamour and glitter of a worldly distinction which is over valued by many. The body grows old, but the mind and heart remain young. The care of the soul is the fountain of perpetual youth.
 "T'he source of power and the source of joy are alike the vision of greatness. Only when man comes Into the presence of the Most High does he rise to great ,4f,tr, lat al lf1 l.t presence, he cannot but rise. Discords become harmony, the little and the mean disappear weariness becomes Irresistible | strength, and the sadness and disappolnt- ment and failure of life are forgotten, overwhelmed by the joy of a vision of the ineffable. The longing for such vision is the earnest of it's being vouchsafed. We know that Thy power can All the heart that Thy power expands

patience with the artist, poet, philosopher or scholar who complains, because, like other men, he must earn his bread; but the world has no patience either with the man who values not art, poetry, philos- ophy or scholarship because he cannot comprehend them, and therefore thinks his dealings with matter and force the supreme end of existence.
 Glorifies Life
 Tt is just at this point that broad training gorihes life. The mere idealist and dreamer, like the mere materialist and man of the actual, only half lives, though he may not know 1t. Each is a pitable sight. The nobest sight in the world is the man who is working up to his full capacity physically Intellectually and spiritually. Such a man has supreme joy in the knowledge of his independence his usefulness. Keats said Gall this world if you will the vale of soul mak- ing. That man Is making his soul To such a man the university with its im- mense breadth of interest and oppor- tunity affords the sympathy which in- creases strength.
 "Conditions in the world about us which cause grave anxiety appear diff ferently to the educated and to the un- educated man. Evils which we regard IS peculiar to our time are found in many cases to have existed in previous cen turies. Political problems are as old as society. Tibullus wrote amusing lines on the means employed by the Roman ladies to beautify their persons. Shakespeare was criticized in his own day for de- bauching the stage by writing, because it would be financially profitable, what would please the audience. Listen to this | .tYF zf Wgr@lr in 1793: The bread is a deleterous paste, mixed up with chalk, alum and bone ashes, insipid to the taste and destructive | to the constitution The dangers of toe day were foreseen by Washington, who fin his Farewell Address referred to cimb- nations of cunning, ambitious and un- principled men who will be enabled to subyert the power of the people and usurp for themselves the reins of government. Truly the problems of the honest man and the idealist are the same from gen eration to generation We have been told recently that under modern civilization the citizen will have the streets of Jericho paved and lighted. and the implication is that the Good Samartar will therefore be deprived of chances like that which made his fame immortal But the old problems often present themselves In new form. The Good Samaritan will continue 10 be needed and to do his work just so long as 1t Is possible for men to fall among thieves.
 Human Soul Just as Deep
 "The cosmos. of which the poets and philosophers of Greece knew, did not compare in majesty or grandeur with the universe AS viewed today by the geologst and astronomer but the depths of the human soul were just as deep, and God and the good just as high. The eyer opening possibilities of happiness of an expanding soul is the great subject which

HORRIBLE

Some Of the Worlds Most Prom

Latest dispatches are to the eff.
feet that the worlds greatest
steamship, the Titanic, which
struck an iceberg in mid-ocean
Sunday, has sunk and only SS6 OF
the 2,200 persons on board are re
ported saved. The ship was the
greatest in the world and was
valued at 100000.
Men of worldwide prominence
were on board, including John
Jacob Astor, Alfred G. Wander
bilt, Major Archie Butt, Benz.
Guggenheim and others of equal
prominence, whose fate is un,
known.
The affair is the most horrible
ever known and only meager &C
counts have been learned at the
time of going to press. First re-

had been saved, but the latest re-

ORDERED
REMOVED
Court House Wall Or
dered Torn Down and
Lawn TerrdCed.
WIN Add Much to the Attractive
ness of Our City.

The grand jury in its final re-
port to Judge Young stated that
it deemed the usefulness of the
old stone wall around the Court
House had long since passed and
recommended that it be torn away
and the lawn terraced down to the
street level and the old wall be
crushed and the rock used on the
county turn pixies. Judge Young
Immediately issued orders to COM
ply with the recommendations of
the grand jury. Awnings for the
jury room, painting and refinish-
ing the wood work on both the in
side and outside of the Court
House and re-plastering the Jail
where needed were also recon-
mended and so ordered by Judge
Young.
The grand jury is indeed to be
congratulated in its recommends
tions aud likewise Judge Young in
ordering same to be done. The
improvements are badly needed,
especially the tearing down of the
old wall. which has long been an
eye sore to visitors to our city and
citizens as we'll, and it is sincerely
hoped that the Fiscal Court will
comply with the order immedi~
a.ely.
