When the president Of Yale sale

OF independent means, he was influ
enced, it is 10 be feared, by the in
,eresls OF his own hundreds Of young
men OF independent means.
Theoretically, the young man Of in
dependent means is the young man
who can best afford to devote him.
self to the public service. But, in
practical fact, that Is just The klntl
Of Young man which the public can
least afford 10 have in charge OF its
affairs.
The young man, fresh from toll,
with the inspiration that comes OF
empty hands, and with sympathies
indebted, is the one who through all
history has held the pilot wheel OF
the ship OF progress with the steadl-
est and stoutest heart.
The man of Independent means, be
he young or old, is out Of sympathy
with the real emotions and the en-
yirOnment OF the masses. He views
the common lot only as one looks
into a house through window. He
knows the common life only as one
who dwells in the hills knows the
life Of the valleys.
What we need in public life, and
in private life, too, is not the man
"rich enough to resist temptation,
but the man honest enough to de-
spise it, the man too true in his sym:
pathies to mistake public good and
too quick in his intelligence to be
misled.

"ENOUGH FOR OLD AGE"

Patrick MndOOn, who for 80 years
had been employed about a Phladcl.
phia hospital, at a salary that never
rose above $50 a month, decided, the
other day. that he has strained his
old bones and muscles long enough
and IL entitled to a little relaxation
before lying down in his long sleep.
For rs years this man has never
received more than $50 a month.
part OF the time less. Yet when he
squared up with his employer the
other day. there was coming to him
the neat sum of 1920.
1T looks like enough for my old
age" he said, as he took it, and then
added: 81 haven't fooled much

odd Method" Is nickname that
fits this man. Long years ago, when
he began to save from his small
salary so that he might have enough
for his old age. he solved the whole
question Of social economy. He is an
