One OF the largest national banks
in New York city has taken the

vironment OF 100 of the financial
leaders of the metropolis The list
includes presidents Of life insurance

express companies, and directors Of
other large business houses. They
have come TO New York from all
parts OF the country, only 40 being
natives OF New York state.
But what the compiler regards as
OF most interest Is the discovery
that almost three-fourths OF them
are from towns Of a population Of

Forty-nine are from places OF l00,-

TO SCHOOL WITH SHAKESPEARE.

Going to school in Shakespeares homo town ought
to appeal to any boy who wants to go to school
at all. and If a scheme started Is carried TO
completion many American boys will have this op-
portunity.
The Stratford grammar school is a school Of high
standards OF learning, which have been carefully
preserved through history dating back the 18th
century IN appeal addressed 10 the English
speaking peoples" governors Of the school urge
that wealthy English people and Americans shall
make endowments permitting the establishment Of
scholarships which shall be available for bringing
American students to study at Stratford. and also
TO permit English graduates OF stratford to finish
their collegiate education in America It is a sort
of extension OF the Cecil Rhodes idea.
Americans have studied abroad for years but
largely at French and German universities This
idea OF cooperative education with England should
appeal strongly TO those who truly believe in the
unity OF the great Anglo-Saxon peoples. To start
such movement at the home OF the greatest mas
ter OF the English language is especially httins

Great Men and Their Early Environment

that this docs away with the idea
that nearly all big men come from
small towns"
But II would be rash TO jump at
the conclusion that nearly all big
men come from cities. Not enough
evidence is at hand on which 10 base
so sweeping an assumption. There
are far more than 100 big men in
the United States Their "bigness'
does not always take the form OF
successful management OF business
corporations. And they are not all
in New York city; not by a long
shot.
Those who cling TO the theory that
country boys have the best chance OF
achieving success still have room TO
argue They should not have trOu-
bic in matching the name Of every
great man brought up in a city with
one OF a country-b bred man Of equal
eminence.

their tasks with more continuity,
and can apply their minds to the
solution OF their problems with less
interruption, and that this has It's in
fuence in developing in their chill
dren perseverance and tenacity Of
purpose, qualities Of great value in
achievement OF success. Country
boys. too. are more Injured to hard
work than city boys. and are more
accustomed to doing without amuse-
ment, but the city offers superior
facilities for acquiring education and
for brushing up against all kinds Of
people. and thus getting understand

There are too many examples in
American history OF men from every
sort OF early surroundings who have
become famous TO warrant one IN
saying that country environment, or
city environment. Is especially con-
ductive 10 the development OF great
ness. Opportunity awaits all.

Germany Still anxious for Her JunkerS

Germany, even under a professed
democratic form OF government,
should be so concerned TO protect
the men mainly responsible for the
evils that now anlict' the nation.
may be taken as indicative that
there has been less change Of heart
on the part of the German people
than external evidence might sig
Nifty. The disposition to dicl1et and
bubble gives rise 20 the suspicion
that the sudden conversion to re-
publican Ideas and the overthrow
of monarchy were the result Of
necessity rather than an exhibition
OF principle dormant under the re-
straint OF the empire, but ready to
awake when opportunity permitted
The Germans may know they
were defeated, but they made It
apparent that they intend TO escape

they can avoid ny means Of objec-
ton. complaint or barter.

That Germany still fails 70 recog-
nize that her war makers were
guilty Of crimes against humanity
and are deserving Of punishment is
in evidence in the latest effort of
representatives OF the government
to bargain for immunity for the
war lords. The action is further
indicative that the present govern
ment, while ostensibly republican,
is not so far removed from the in
fluence OF the old regime that IT
will yield. except under pressure. to
a court of justice the man by their
atrocities made the German name
a synonym for cruelty and inhuman
