CHAPTER XIV.

Fred Mitchell, crossing the campus
one morning, ten days later, saw Dora
standing near the entrance of her dor
mitory, where he would pass her un-
less he altered his course; and as he
drew nearer her and the details of her
face grew Into distinctness, he was in
dignant with himself for feeling less
and less Indignation toward her In pro-
portion to the closeness of his ap-
proach. The pity that came over him
was mingled with an unruly admira-
tion, causing him to wonder what un-
patriotic stuff she could be made of.
She was marked, but not whipped; she
still held herself straight under all the
hammering and cutting which, to his
knowledge, she had been getting.
She stopped him, "for only mo-
ment," she said, adding with a wan
proudness: THAT is, IL you're not one

Of the faculty were In measure re-

"You must keep your heads" he
said. "God knows, do not seek to
judge your duty In this gravest mo-
ment Of your lives, nor assume to tell
you what you must or must not do.
But by hurrying into service now, with
out careful thought or consideration,
you may impair the extent of your
possible usefulness to the very cause
you are so anxious to serve. Hundreds
Of you are taking technical courses
which should be completed-at least
to the end OF the term I'm June. In
structors from the United States army
are already on the way here, and mill

II speak to you in a crisis Of the
university's life, as well as that Of the
nation, and the warning I utter has
been made necessary by what took
place yesterday and today. Yesterday
morning, a student In the junior class
enlisted as a private In the United
States regular army. Far be 1t from
me to deplore his course In so doing;
he spoke to me about 1t, and In such a
way that felt had no right to dis
suade him. told him that 1t would
he preferable for college men to wait
until they could go as officers, and,
aside from the fact Of q greater pres
tige, I urged that men Of education
could perhaps be more useful In that
capacity. He replied that If he were
useful enough Us private a commits
sion might In time come his way, and.
as l say, did not feel at liberty to at.
tempt discussion. He left to ioin
regiment to which he had been as.
signed, and many Of you were at the
station to bid him farewell.
But enthusiasm may be too con-
tagious; even great and inspiring
motive may work for harm, and the
university must not become a desert.
In the twenty-four hours since that
young man went to Join the army last
night, one hundred and eleven Of our
young men students have left our
walls; eighty-four Of them went of to-
gether ut three o'clock to catch an
east-bound train at the Junction and
enlist for the navy ut Newport. We
are, say, In danger Of stampede"

tening; she had become obsessed by
an idea which seemed to be carrying
her to the border of tragedy. When
the crowd poured forth from the build

and paused in the dark outside. She
spoke to a girl whom she did not
know.

"Yes?"
II wanted to ask: Do you know
who was the student Doctor Crows

the first to enlist, and that they were

NEW WASHINGTON FAD

It were discourteous, perhaps,
to call our largest suburb, the
nearby city of Washington, hob
by-ridden. But we may certainly
saw in truth and candor, that it IS
probably the home Of more lads,
cults and isms than any othersclty
in the world. There is reason
for this, of course, but it is not
necessarily pertinent here.
The latest fad to be taken up III
the national capital is that of a
little band of scholars who are as
ISOLATED for the purpose OF study
ing in collaboration those plays
which, they claim, go under
Shakespeare's name, but which
modern research tends to show
were really the production OF
other authors and were merely
touched up-some of them more,
some Of them less-by the mas
ter''s hand. They propose to try
to decide not only which plays
may thus be classed as partly
Shakespearian, but also those that
are absolutely non-Shakespearian.
To what end? For what pur-
pose? The plays themselves still
remain the most marvellous pro-
auctions of the human mind thus
far known to the world, and are SO
insuperably grea ter than the
literature that has come to us from
antiquity, or than anything since
produced-that all standards OF
comparison utterly fail. This IS
the important thing to us. What
matters it who wrote thenl-one
or many!
However, there are certain i'll
disputable evidences, to us at least,
that interpose themselves at the
outset. The best evidence, we be-
ieve, would be the testimony OF
Shakespeare's own friends, who
knew the man intimately, who
hobnobbed with him at the Mer-
maid, and who were familiar with
his literary work as it came out
from time to time. For instance,
rare Ben Jonson, his boon COM
panion and daily associate, thus
apostrophizes his lifelong friend ::
