OW editors love to play
- 'froggie in the meadow"
with their betters and to
take a little stick and stir
him all about" when the opportunity
comes. Recently President Ernest NJ.
Hopkins Of Dartmouth gave them the
opportunity. He spoke In his OPEN
ing address of the aristocracy of
brains and declaimed against
'propaganda." Naturally. the editors
began asking what is brains and
what is propaganda, and when these
questions are raised it becomes evil
dent quickly that the president Of
Dartmouth was using phrases rs
loosely a. Bryan ever did. And to
catch q college president banging
base drum without tune o. time gave
the editors JOY.
Yet President Hopkins had IN idea.
What he seems to have meant when
he talked about the American col
lego promoting an "aristocracy OF
brains was that our present college
plants are restricted in their capacity
for production. and that there should
be some limitation upon the materia!
which they shall try to turn out as
college men and women. He was
clearly seeking some rules by which
to limit the students who should 90
to our colleges. And he seemed to
think that the presence or absence
Of what he chose to call ''brains"
would make q measure by which to
try applicants.
But no one knows what brains are.
A college entrance examination will
not reveal them. High grades in coll
lege are not infallible tests for
brains. It is easy to show that the
honor men Of given class in any
college generally do we'll in life. But
until a record is made of what the
men in the same class did who barely
squeaked through. the story Of the
honor men proves nothing. And the
colleges have no statistical records
Of the gay lads who got their edu-
cation from the college life. .
Brains should mean certain high
capacities to know things and to CORE

ment and to act In accordance with
those judgments. In other words,
to produce Gods perfect child. There
is no such creature. In the meter OF
life, force of will counts for much
in certain kinds of success; persua-
sive power produces another kind Of

Is propaganda to the coupon clipper.
The staid press associations spread
what the socialists regard as propa-
ganda, and the labor press Is nothing
but propaganda to the chamber Of
commerce. Moreover, it is always
''msidious propaganda" 'Insidious
propaganda" is a phrase as pet and
inescapable as the unspeaka BILE
Turk" And it is always as safe for
man to cry out against "insidious
propaganda" al it Is to abuse the
rum fiend in prohibition state.
Loose phraseology Is the preroga-
tive OF the newspaper man who has
tp write. hurriedly and SO often
thinks casually. But whom 10 catch
college president at one Of our own
tricks, how we do like to tease him.
President Hopkins gave the editorial
writer's . merry quarter OF an hour
whom he talked about the ''aristocracy
Of brains'' and ''the dangers Of propa-
ganda." And what was fun for the
boys should not have been SO very bad
for the frog. Perhaps he, too, en-
joyed it.
The President.
A year and half. crowded with big
events, has passed since President
Harding went to the White House. It
is fair now to measure him. And
many newspaper mon are doing so.
It is unlikely that any other event
will rise In his oficial life that will
develop q new trait, nor Is 1t probable
that any characteristic will be strength
ened by the two years before him in
the White House. What he has shown
us he will continue to be to the end.
So let US look at him as the times
have revealed him. First of all, we
find a kindly man. He is dignifi ed,
but always gentle. He has no sense
Of his own importance that makes
him gruff or mean or intriguing. He
is not q face-saver. He clearly has
no lust for leadership nor desire for
power. His place in history doesn't
bother him. For books do not inter-
est him Books and book men arc
not IN his cosmok Tho writer whom
President Roosevelt called to great
power from his garret and whom
President Wilson kept around the
White House like the ''organ in tho
parlor, to give the place a tone"
President Harding has ignored; in
deed. President Harding has packed
up the writer's books and chased him
of the place.
So the writer has naturally felt
that the plutoist has replaced the
writer in the White House. ;. The
writer's inference Is unfair. Plu-
tocracy. may. have: q better chance In
tho White House with the writer back
in his attic; but not because the
President consciously agrees with the
plutocrat Harding 10 not q tool Of
Wall street. wall street has little
standing in the Presidents cosmos;
and this is true despite the mistakes
Of. Secretary Fall, the nonsense ut
tered by Secretary Weeks and the
outrageous conduct Of Attorney Gem
eral DauEherty. The President Is. q
country town man with tho country
towns distrust Of Wall street, MINI

strike and when the railroad strikers
lost their strike, the administration
foolishly gave it a most unnecessary
kick with the Daugherty injunction.
But Harding's fair proposals-reject-
ed at different times by both sides
indicate the fairness of his mind.
So we may say that like most men
who are essentially gentle, he is also
fair, as he may be. The reason why
he is not fairer than he Is comes
not from lack Of courage, but comes
because he doesn't know how to be
fairer than he is. A lack Of infor-
nation, limited background in his
experience, Is his greatest drawback.
Roosevelt and Wilson knew or knew
who knew or knew books where they
could find truth. They were scholars
who had read Of the problems before
them and had associated with we'll
read men. President Harding has
made his living as publisher. rather
than as an editor. His concerns were
politics as it affected circulation and
advertising rather than fundamental
policies as they affected the life about
him. He has followed his party. He
has cared little for platforms and
much for victories. Hence. tho fun
damentals that make big issues are
new to him. He senses out much, and
when he Is sure he moves bravely.
But he is too often unsure.
His courage is never clustering,
never cruel, never self-seeking. But
his courage never fails him. His veto
Of the bonus took grit. His advocacy
Of the ship subsidy Cook something
Of the same quality. One was popular
in many quarters, the other was
popular in but a few. But popularity
does not gauge the quality of the
Presidents nerve. It also is gentle,
dignifled. persuasive, rather than ag-
gressive. but always steady.
So there he stands, our ruler for
two years and five months more. We
need expect no new man to emerge.
He is what he is and will be gentle.
sincere, fair-minded man with cour-
age and without pretense. He is not
given to intrigue. No one accuses
him Of lying. He is not sophisti-
Gated, and because he is kind he is
never rude. He has no hobbies, is
