gives this recipe for distinguishing
the quality of potatoes:
''Cut a potato lengthwise through
the center and rub the inner sides
together briskly. If the juice from
the potato works out clear and wa
terry, the quality of the potato is
poor, and will produce a watery, silver
colored mash. If the Juice resembles

is all right and may be COM

HlRsEN ON
Princeton's New President Gives His
Idea Of Training Youth.

Prineeton's New President Gives His
Idea Of Training Youth.
New York Times: DR.. John Grier
Hibben, the president Of Princeton uni
versity, was giving his idea OF educa-
ton:
The practical education does not
even from a practical standpoint make
the best a
Education. If it fills its proper func-
ton, trains a mans mind so that
whatever position Of life he may be in
he can use it. Al college education
should put his mind in the same con-
dition as are the hands of the skilled
artisan. Education is not, as many
believe, a process Of furnishing grist
for the mill to grind; 1t is rather the
work Of constructing and perfecting
the machinery Of the mind itself and
of imparting the art of operating 1t
in~telligently as a master workman.
The peculiar task of the teacher is
that of informing the mind rather than
that of giving it information. The
process prepares the mind for the
live NASS VI y OWA aCNANAlAE6t III
other merely furnishes it with so much
to learn and so much to remember.
The training Of the mind should al
ways be regarded as an end in itself
and never as a means to some other
end, no matter how important such an
end may be.
The people who argue that the boy
should be trained from the beginning
as a lawyer or as a doctor forget that
circumstances may sweep away his
opportunities to follow these profess
sions, and he has not been made fit
to use his mind in any other position.
1t is my belief that education should
fit a boy to be a man rather than an
accumulation OF money.
Nov, don't let me give the idea
that I belittle the maker Of money or
that / do not think each man should
take his part in the working fabric
of society. What ] should perhaps
say is that a human being is some
thing more than a machine for pro-
ducing briefs and prescriptions, con-
tracts and inventories, Investments,
balance sheets and tariff bills.
THE man must be bigger than his
business of his profession. He is not
only a lawyer, a doctor, a legislator,
but he is a citizen. a companion. hus-
band, father. friend.
He hat innumerable points OF con
tact with his fellows. The RESPONSE
bilities Of life press upon him from
all sides.
The point I wish to make is that his
education shoGld so have awakened
his sympathies and broadened his in
terests that he can respond to these
points of contact and meet these re-
sponsibilities.s
