THE SAME OLD STORY

There's story in each of the faces
You see in the passing throng,
But it's only the same old story
The struggle of right and wrong;
The battle of hate and duty;
The strife between love and fear;
It's only the same old story,
With a chapter for every year.
The hope is turning to sadness;
The courage beset by pain;
The moment of transient gladness
That shines like the sun through
rain =.
The tale may be told but simply, i
For it isn't so much to tell, =.
It's only the same old story ...--
That this old world knows so well!

PROFESSORS AND NEWSPAPERS.

Do college professors nowadays be-
lieve in newspapers? We believe the
best of them do. Some professors
even read them, and there are oc-
casional instances of a college pro-
fessor actually being persuaded to
write articles for the Sunday supple
ment! 1t was very different in 1888.
Edward Everett Hale was Harvard
undergraduate then, and was one Of
those who signed a petition for a
college reading room" Not only
did the faculty say no." but Presi-
dent Josiah Quincy explained to Hale
that there had been reading room
some years ago which the college
government was obliged to break up
and that newspapers were fascinat-
ing things .'even to us old men and
that they would take young men
away from their studies" A very
weak argument. 1t is far cry from
President Quincy's view of rs years
ago to the view of James Melvin Lee,
director of the department of jour
nalism of New York university, ex-
pressed some weeks since. Prof. Lee
suggests that good daily newspaper
be used in the class rooms where in
struction in high school grammar
and rhetoric is given. 1t would seem
to be Prof. Lees notion that the fact
that newspapers make interesting
reading is nothing very much against
them, and that there is much in
struction in studying the history Of
our own times. Newspapers are
turned out in a hurry and the best
of them fall into errors OF style as

of taste, but IL not in schools, at
least in colleges, the use Of news
papers ought to be urged upon such
youngsters as need the urging. One
of the hardest tasks of the teacher
Of English composition is to impress
upon his so-called students the prac-
tical Importance Of learning how to
write good English. Many a prac-
teal minded boy regards instruction
in this field as wasted time; he is
going to be an engineer, an agricul-
turalist or merchant and not an
Addison or Milton or Emerson-sO
why bother with Sir Roger de Cover
ley and his friends, or Burk's Speech
on Cancellation with America" or
Stevenson's Lodging for the Night?"
The newspaper is part of daily life,
even for agriculturalists and engi-
neers and mechanics. The youth
who reads newspapers must realize
a little more completely than he did
before, the advantage 1t is to COM
mand words and sentences as we'll as
flesh and blood employees. Moreoy-
er, good newspaper serves to bridge
the gap between day-by-day practi-
cality and all time literature; often it
is stepping stone FROM literary
blindness to something like apprecia-
ton. We are not of those who are
gloomily conscious of newspaper
specifically. We are, instead, ev-
er newly amazed by the high stan
dards of style and information which
the best of American newspapers
reach over night. Those of our COL
lege teachers who croak at occasional
split infinitives of the editorial page
would do we'll to ask themselves If
their own best lectures would make
endurable newspaper reading.-Rene

many without manhood?
Is her modesty mockery, the
prayer book and Bible relics of the
past and mothers advice the played
out within of the antiquated?
Is she no longer comfort to
those at home, the delight of her
mother and the pride of the family
circle?
If this is your daughter, are you
proud of her? Look at her latest
photograph. Then take down the
picture of her mother or grandmoth-
er.
Which do you like the best? And
which do men Of real worth prefer2
