PEANUT SELLER AND PRO-
II,SSOR.

Oh. A. Bruce, In the Outlook.)
Among a boatload of immigrants
from Germany to the United States
there once was poor young man
who, after sundry adventures In quest
of a livelihood. settled in Kansas
City, where near the public library
he established a small stand for the
sale of fruit and peanuts. This was
his vocation; his avocation, or hob
by. was the study of languages, at
which he worked with admirable dill
igence In the public library, some
times closing his peanut stand for
hours when absorbed In the solution
OF nm especially fascinating linguistic
problem. a day came when the Uni
versity of Missouri, needing an addl-
tional instructor In languages, sent
an cmissary TO the Kansas City Ii

and he pointed to the young immi-
grant, toiling eagerly over huge

satisfied the university's representa-
tive that the librarians judgment was
excellent. and little later the pea
nut vender closed his stand for all
time and began teaching. Today he
is one of the really shining lights of
Harvard university.
