subject of education, I must confess
that it is not my own which chiefly
concerns me. Of that 1 deSpaired
long ago.
No longer do I plan to learn
enough of the French language to
take a makeup examination and re-
move at least. one black blot which
stands against my academic career.
Like Red Grange, I have decided not
to finish my college course.
But of late I have come in con-
tact with echoes of a school which
I attended once. It was and is the
only intellectual institution which
permitted me to serve out my time
and sent me forth, if not precisely
trailing clouds of glory, at least as
one stamped with the regular label
and trade mark.
And now that my son has ma
circulated at Horace Mann, I have
an interest in trying to find out how
things march at the old place.

made within the limited compass OF our
daily action. The little and obscure
places of the world have furnished
ample fields for some of the finest reve-
lations ever given to men. Many OF
the choicest treasures and indeed the
most useful we have were the contrlbu-
tionS of those who seemed to lack both
the opportunities and advantages of the
more favored. The capacity to see and
know and approximate l1fe'S best gifts
is not determined by conditions that lie
outside of us; they are determined by
what we possess of virtue and desire
within our own hearts and minds. MY

few of us know and understand the

the less favored enjoy in the contem-

the witness of new disclosures, dis
closures that serve to lend ease and
comfort and luxury to living. but it is a
world filled with d:stempefs and dis
illusionments because it lacks the
deeper satisfaction which alone comes
from the discovery of life's truest and
most enduring values. The great Mas

of the lesser emphasis placed upon
it among undergraduate bodies, is said
to be experiencing its first real spurt.
Meantime there is little to warrant the
suggestion that the game is losing out

If necessity Is the mother of inven-
ton" then a consistent kind Of curiosity
has been the inspiration of much of
the worlds genius. We begin our life
with a query on our lips and queries
multiply and increase with the passing
years. Man never Is, but always to
be bleSt." The cOnvenienceS and bless
ingS that we enjoy today have come to
us largely through the persistent search
of those who, on sea and land and in
laboratory, have toiled long and patient
ly to benefit and enrich their fellows
The worlds pathfinders have ever been
those who are unwilling to be satisfied
with things as they are or to pursue
the formula of the indolent: Let well
enough alone" Life grows stagnant
and uninteresting when men cease to
attempt new ways and to discover new
paths.
An appealing little book, entitled "The
Crusade for the Anemone." tells the
graphic story of woman'e efforts to
discover more fully by personal search
in Palestine the ways and environing
circumstances that attended the min
iStry of the worlds Supreme Master
In series Of letters written to individ-
uals her book sets forth the larger reve-
lation of truth that came to her as well
as the finer Interpretation of hitherto
misunderstood and obscure scriptural
passages. In her quiet wanderings about
old places and amid scenes that are
forever associated with the ministry of
Christ she received fresh inspiration
renewed courage and a deepened faith.
In her letters she attempted to make
more real to her friends the new in
terpretations that had been made to
her. For the first time the life and
ministry Of the NaZarene was made real
to her. She went out expectantly to
discover the anemone, and in the paths
of the Masters ministry she received a
larger and finer vision of the meaning
of he- own life. She had been a prin-
cess. had known the glamour and appea
Of the worlds material advantages; nov
in the light Of her quiet reflections amid
old and hallowed scenes she discovered
the worth of her own soul.
Her little book, beautifully written, is
testimony to the value of deter
mined and reverent search for those
things that give the largest and truest
satisfaction. We do not have to go to
some distant place to discover life's real
values; our richest disclosures may be

The Last Week.

Today ushers in the final week of this
campaign To borrow a recently famous
phrase, Let no man tell you that it
could not be worse 1t might, indeed,
be much worse. 1t might. but for the
forethought of the founding fathers,

doubtful if the American people could
stand it.
Some one facetiously suggested the
other day that the campaigns last much

have been placed in october or Septem-

thought uppermost in everybody's mind
now, from the tired and hoarse cam
paigners to the bewildered voters whose
Nightmares gallop through troubled
dreams in the form of demons armed
not with pitchforks but with points for
somebody or others program. For the
final week of a presidential campaign
marks the stage where the oratorical
steam of many months has filled the
political boiler beyond normal capacity.
1t is a wonder that there has been no
explosion.

placed before a peace-loving and suf-
fering Nation Of patriots. Senator

are asked to re-elect the President on
the strength of the administration rec
ord. Franklin D. Roosevelt is entitled
to the presidency because Of his great
experience as Governor of New York,
but he should be defeated lest the
people of this country meet the fate
already encountered by the good citi-
zens of New York
And so it goes. There are two
things that save the situation and pre-
vent the explosion. One is the fact
that everybody is holding on tight in
the knowledge that within another
week all the pent-up steam of the last
few months Will be turned into the
cylinders to set in motion the ponder
GUS machinery of a national election
The other Is the safety valve that ex-
lists in the rare good humor of the
American people
This latter has been strained, it Is
true. But one of the remarkable facts
about an election is the rapidity with
which this good humor and the ability
to forgive and forget will begin to
function again on the morning of No
vember 9. This phenomenon is prob
ably beyond the ken of the traditional
visitor from Mars. Were he now here
he would be completely justified in his
certainty that If Mr.. Hoover is re-
elected large portion of the Nation S
population will commit suicide to escape
the dreadful consequences of the next
four years, while if Mr.. Roosevelt is
elected everybody and everything will
be engulfed before the poison may be
got or the gas turned on.
1t might appear questionable whether
the tremendous emotional stresses and
strains to which the people are sub
jected once every four years are worth
while. But their safety as people is
in reality preserved by the fact that
once every four years no man is denied
the right to say anything he wants to
say and is protected by the extraordi-
nary license of the political rostrum.
The worst is always said. And if each
side competes in seeking to paint the
blackest picture should the other side
win, a new sun of hope rises on the
dav after the vote is cast. Toward
this sun, after the brief interlude Of a
restless campaign, everybody marches
in step again.
