Harvard Men Fail, Says Professor;
University Suppresses Article
Graduates Are Round Pegs in Square Holes =
Declares Students Pay To Be Failures

ten college graduates go into the world
from college without definite purpose.
ard without definite purpose they
waste their lives. To me this is one
OF the most terrible facts in life, that
college men. educated men, the men
upon whom the world depends for lead
ership. never reach in life the position
for which their own nature intended
them.
Education is like the training of a
fighter. The purpose of training is to
make the man so fit and so confident
that at the sound of the bell he VIII
jump into the ring. resolved to get
anything that balks him.
"As | have said. the educational sys
tenn Of to-day makes of g man two men.
A man with two or more personalities
can never succeed. The successful man
is unified personality, whose work is
failure is the man whose work is his
torture his avocations are his only
pleasures.
Elective System Condemned
"Our elementary schools, or prepara-
tory schools, our colleges fail, and be
cause q their failure their pupils fail.
At Harvard the system reaches its eli
max. The elective systems, with its
concentrations and its distributions. its
asinine broadening Of the mind, is
wrong. Il is foolish to talk of gen.
eral culture in an age where only spe-
cialists succeed. The cry Of the busi-
ness world is for unified men. men who
sleep, eat and talk business; men
whose whole education has been built
upon that fundamental boyish inclina
rion which denotes the real nature of
the man.
Our educational system takes such a
boy, teaches him Latin, Greek. elocution
and botany, makes him feel above his
childish inclination toward the prac-
teal. He becomes eventually lawyer
CT a doctor, is dissatisfied with his
Work finds the old inclination popping
Up at the most unfortunate moments
to hinder him in the work of his pro-
fession.
Eight out Of ten Harvard men are
round pegs IN square holes; they fit
badly or not at all. They have two
natures, each struggling against the
other and each impotent to play full
part in the drama Of life. For this
ctrugg.e our colleges are responsible.
Harvard even more than others In
unity alone is there success, and until
Harvard realizes that her purpose is to
make successful men, she is failure
Harvard of to-day is literally robbing
her students. She is making them pay
to be made failures"

WHAT. ARE THE REAL FACTS
ABOUT GILLETTE BLADES

MOST MEN are disposed to be fair and

now be told for the first time.

see with us the bright outlook Immediately ahead.
Refused to Recognise the Impossible

TAKE NOTE of the task put up to the Gillette the

wellnigh impossible. Consider the spirit of service,

Consider the Importance of the Gillette as a
part Of the Mandatory Military Equipment of the
United States Army and Navy-its place in the
daily lives of the men; its relation to the health,
wellbeing and soldicrly appearance of our Troops
on the Seas and Overseas.
Any Gillette user in touch with the situation,
who read the cables, who felt the pressure, would
gladly put aside his personal inconvenience and
extend the hand Of fellowship and congratulation
