Creenee and Rome Are Catching.

Creence and Rome Are Catching.
n Greece and Rome hadn't fallen with
crashes that have resonnded down through the
ages We don't know how we could keep our
graduating classes up to the mark As 1t is
thousands OF young men and women leave our
universities every year with these examples
fixed firmly in their minds, and determined to
keep their own country off the rocks. Those
sncient civilizations have, in other ways, per-
haps, deserved the attention of this one. They
fell. to b sure. but before falling they be-
queathed something to US, and ever since their
fall the mere ruins they left have kept us quite
probably engaged digging up treasures OF
various sorts. 1t is to be hoped our own civ
total loss it subsequent races and ciyilisa-
tons dig up from its ruins the smallest frac-
ton of what we have saivaged from Greece
and Rome.
Perhaps, after all, the fact that those civil
izations fell ought not to wholly condemn them
in our eyes. They were, we suspect, quite
worth while. A good deal of knowledge with
which our universities today equip their stu
dents has its sources in them. We haven't i'm
proved on their art, nor very. much on their
law, and some of our commencement addresses
lead US to believe We haven't improved on their
rhetoric They did pretty we'll with govern
ment, too. They didn't make perfect success
Of that science, but for that matter We haven't,
either. Some Of the best of our Institutions We
took from them, and il these institutions have
defects We suspect 1t is not 30 much in their
structure az in the capacity we bring to their
operation. We are not sure it can be said that
any civilization really perishes that bequeaths
to the world as much as these ancient civiliza-
tons did. They don't perish. they merely re-
new themselves in different age. 1t is the
aga that perishes. if anything.
Perhaps, then, we are little hard on
Greece and Rome at commencement time, See
ing that they bulk SO large in all our literature,
our studies and our philosophy Of life, con-
duct and government, maybe We are not exactly
polite in making awful examples of them in
our youth. We might be taken a little aback
II our youth turned on us some time and de-
manded to know just where we had improved
on those civilizations. We might be embar-
assed to answer. About all we can say is that
they fell. We certainly have made the most
Of that. II they hadn't we would be up against
1t at commencement time.

Madge had decided to take a
much needed vacation, after two
years of steady work. She had writ
ten to Aunt Ann that she would
come for the promised visit. With
suitcase in hand she entered the
station and bought her ticket She
was not accustomed to travelling.
and took the first train that came
along, supposing that anyone
would carry her to Greenic.
With little gasp at the unac-
customed luxury, she settled her
self back in the cushioned seat ami
gazed from the window. How fast
the landscape rushed by, carrying
her away from familiar scenes and
duties!
The conductor came into the
train, looked at her ticket and
shook his head. "Not good on this
train, Miss" he announced. This
train does not 30 to Greenic."
The girl stared at him blankly.

gasped. Let me on, please.

and wanted to cry. .
