HIGH BROWS

A paragraph in the Manchester
veys a very different impression from
the one the writer would probably con-
vey if he were writing seriously. The
Union says:
Read the newspapers daily is the
baccalaureate advice of Dean Hodges
of the Episcopal Divinity school, Cam
bridge, to Simmons college graduates
Brace up, brethren; if college women
are going to read the newspapers daily
we'll have to fortissimo the high
brow stuff"
College graduates if teachers are apt
to give more or less attention to high
brow stuff for they may need it in
their work. But college graduates
who are not teachers are apt to let
high brow stuff" severely alone and
even teachers as a rule, if they are
college graduates, do not care for it..
The well educated man or woman
rarely tries to pose as literary or to
show off in any way. AS a rule they,
discuss the things that the average of
the people discuss for there is nothing
in college training to change mans
tastes And then a man whose educa-
ton is worth having knows that if he
would succeed in any line he must
keep in touch with the people. If he is
out of sympathy with the people among
whom he lives he not only impairs his
usefulness but he also impairs his
chances of success.
Then the we'll educated man or wo-
man does not see the necessity of pa
rading the fact. They know that II
education is to be of any use it is as it
helps them to accomplish things and
high brow discussion does not help
them at all
OF course there are high broWs in |
every community. They are half
educated people who wish to create
the impression that they are well edu-
Gated. AS they know they are defc-
lent they try to hide their deficiencies
of learning which they do not possess.

By JOHN BARRETT, Director of the
Pan>American Union

THE European war has promoted
the growth of pan-American

along the lines of sentiment and
comfy as of material things and
commerce.
There never was time when the
Latin American governments and
peoples we're so ready as they are
now to cooperate with the United
States for the development of closer
commercial and political ties. And
it is altogether feasible that not the
United States alone, but the
