STUDY OF GREEK GIVEN UP
Fewer Students in American or Eng fish Colleges Seem to Care for
 Ancient Language.

Every year the expression, "1t Is all Greek to me-" has sharper point to 1t. The reason is that each year few. CT boys and girls study Greek, re- marks "Girard" in the Philadelphia Press.
 l see by the list of students in a typical American college that only one boy in 15 now studies Greek. In the same college 30 years ago over half the students read Greek.
 A drop from 90 to less than ' per cent in a generation Is going fast, and shows that Greek will soon be not only a dead. but q buried language in tho United States
 And from Oxford, in England, comes a wall that the university is fast los ing ground.
 The year before the war, fin 1913, QS3 students entered Oxford. but 30 years earlier 7e4. matriculated. And of those who came in 1913, 1S0 were Rhodes scholars.
 From an Oxford man I learn that Greek is the trouble. Cambridge un'- versity abolished Greek. but Oxford did not. although In nearly all the Ave preparatory schools In England Greek is no longer taught.
 So It seems that schools do not pre- pare boys for Oxford and Oxford stands still.
