Value Of Thrift.

Queer doctrine emanates from some COL
lege professors, and because it is queer
it is given publicity out OF all proportion
to its desert. 1t Is because q queer doc
trine from such a source Is exceptional
that the fact has the news value which
carries 1t SO far. The fact proves nothing
except that here and there an educated
man. holding a professorship in college,
has an unusual mental slant on some par
ticular subject. 1t may be, probably is,
that this mental slant is temporary and
due to those mysterious causes which
often induce a man to say with all evil
dent sincerity what he really and nor
mally does not approve. In one OF these
mental and verbal lapses a man has the
bad luck to be quoted. Then one who
quotes an observation that is in itself un-
usual and queer is under the temptation
to add a touch of color or to withhold a
bit of the original setting which will not
diminish the oddly of the observation;
or. rather. the temptation is strong to i'm
prove upon its oddly. In fact, it is easy
to quote a man accurately, so far as the
quotation goes. and yet lamentably mis-
quote him. However. II is also fact that
some college professors do deliver them

Apparently some business men are
perplexed or distressed by the course OF
instruction which the President-elect
is giving them. They fail to compre
bend the literary temperament, the
righteous desire accompanied with the
power or expression, the temper of the
ideaiist accompanied with the gift and

were silent soldier like Grant, if he
were plain speaker on economic OF

sticks in their crops. we imagine is the
literary art. the style, the poetry. the
thrill that runs like golden thread
through the fabric of his recent lectures
