FOE OF THE COLLEGES.

or all tho foes of young manhood
on the American college campus. al.
cohol is the most subtle and destruc-
tive. It Is peculiarly fitting that the
American college student of today,
wiser and better informed than his
predecessors, should give battle to his
ancient and merciless adversary. II
gravestones were placed on our col.
lege grounds to those slain in the flush
OF young manhood by Intoxicating
drink, the acres Of verdant lawn
around even our best institutions
would become vast cemeteries chastity
with thick-strewn headstones. With a
devilish instinct for maximum destruc-
tiveness, this demon of the campus
seems to pick out for degradation the
gayest, the loveliest, the most talent
ed, and to REINFORCE his assault by en-.
listing the social and generous in.
stincts which constitute the very
charm of youth. Opening always the
gate to passion and appetite. he is the
aggressive ally of everything which
degrades college life, the promoter of
tragedies innumerable on every cam
pus. the tireless enemy OF virtue, pur-
ity, diligence and intellectual develop
ment.-Henry Louis Smith. President
Washington and Lee University.

GOOD LINE OF BUSINESS.

1t was at campaign meeting in
Ohio. The speaker said that West vir.
gania had profited financially by vot.
ing dry. A man in the audience dis
puted this statement. He said that
he was salesman, that he visited
every county seat in West Virginia,
and that his business had fallen OF
considerably since the state went dry.
Another man spoke up and said that
he was salesman and made" West
Virginia regularly and that his bust
ness had increased since the state be
came dry. He asked the fellow who
reported falling OF what his line
was and the latter reluctantly admit
ted that he sold undertakers' supplies,
at which the crowd yelled. The man
who declared that prohibition had
helped his business explained he sold
furniture.

SCIENTIFIC INSTRUCTION.
In 1897 two leading professors Of
Germany sent to the men of that coun-
try a pronouncement favoring total abb
stinence. 1t contained this declara-
ton:
Science has shown that alcohol,
disturbance in brain action. paralyzes
the critical capacity, power of will, the
ethical and esthetic sense, and lowers
self-control. For this reason we
should realize that 1t is poison and
no longer to be classed with foods"
The document received nine sigma
lures. Ten years later it was sent out
again and received 800 signatures of
German medical men, 116 of whom
were professors.
In 1913 great antlalcoholic meeting
was held in the Prussian house of dep
uties, Berlin. The honorary president
was the German chancellor, Dr. Won
Bethmann-Hollweg and on the commit
tee of honor all the Prussian ministers
were represented and hundreds of en-
inent men of the empire. Doctor Jen-
sen, inspector general of the Berlin
schools. called forth much applause
when he said that ''the education OF
youth is absolutely impossible with
out an antialcohol element in it."
Since then such instruction has been
made a part OF the regular course in
the public schools of Germany. and
entire courses in that subject are Of
fered by the great universities.

Some years ago the owner of one of
the largest papers in New York. recog-

place writing should not thereafter be

editorial page. The cleverest descrip-

employed. and what was the result?
Why they tell the story that the edi-
tors wanted the pavements around the

Of the passing vehicles. because such
great mental effort was necessary.

Now let me take you into my con-
tidence since you would all like to
know the secret Of journalistic intel.
lectual force. Probably not one In .
hundred OF the bright things you read
in the papers were ever said by the
persons to whom they are attributed.
In the days of President Lincoln ev.
ery story extant had him for father.
The Journalist of today knows very
we'll the way to float witty saying 70
to put it upon one In public life. IN
our day Senator Evarts has the credit
of saying more bright, clever things
than anybody else. And whyf Be.
cause he really has told. very frequent.
ly too, witty stories. For that reason
when a newspaper man invents any
thing particularly good and wants .
sponsor he puts 1t on Evarts.
"You may remember early in the
first session Of the Fifty-hrst congress
the Democrats evaded the roll call Tor
weeks in succession. Whenever the
ayes and noes were called they iefs
the hall in a body. Just then the grippe
was very common In our midst and
one morning there appeared the fol-
lowing. Senator Evarts remarked to
his colleague. Edmunds, that II run
ming from the eyes and nose was q
sure symptom of the grippe then ev-
cry Democratic member In the house
must be sadly afflicted. for they had
peen running from the ayes and noes
for moro than two weeks past.
III you we're to ask Senator Evarts
II he made such remark he would
doubtless tell you. II you read It In
the newspaper It must be true. But
the trouble about such humor 10. the
newspaper where It originates never
gets credit for 1t. Not long ago the
size of the postage stamp was reduced.
Again Senator Evarts came to the
front. He said-in the Newspaper

That profound lawyer from Vermont
could not answer the conundrum. and
no Senator Evarts answered, Because
