(Official City, State and Ccanty Newspaper) They’d Be Poor Students Abraham Lincoln, Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin and Grover Cleveland would never get de- grees from American colleges if they were young men today, says Professor Whittlesey of Princeton. | He explains himself thus: Lincoln probably wouldn’t go to college at all) because of the expense. If he did his mind “would | have outrun all bounds and been unwelcome in the > average university.” Cleveland had a very slow and deliberate habit of mind, and lacked the glibness and quickness de- | manded by modern instructors. | Fleeting Fame Unless fame has a very sound basis im genuin:| service to humanity, it is apt to be pretty short-; lived. : A number of the personal effects of the late Ru dolph Valentino were cffered for sale in London | recently, and it was advertised that they could be viewed by the general public for a period of two| weeks. Not one girl or woman visited the place to have a look or to buy. The auction was sparsely at- | tended, and most of the buyers were middle-aged | men seeking curios. Franklin and Jefferson would probably be ex-| pelled very early in their ccllege careers because they would not abide by the restraints placed on modern students. One man’s guess on all of this is as good as an- other’s, no doubt. It does seem as if the professor had, in the language of the day, said something. Just what it proves, however, is another matter. At first glance his statement would seem to im- ply a sharp criticism of our modern educationz! | institutions. And, doubtless, these institutions | have many faults, which it would be easy to enu- merate at considerable length. Yet their supposed inability to cope.with youths | like Lincoln, Jefferson, Franklin and Cleveland doesn’t prove much of anything except that genius is always hard to handle. | A Lincoln or a Jefferson ix separated from the rest of us by a wide gulf—a gulf that is as wide in youth as it is in manhood. He is not normal | and never can be; will not and cannot abide by the rules and formulas that the rest of us live by. We never understand him. Often enough we dislike and suspect him. helping to shape the course of our civilization. Professor Whittlesey may be right in what he says; he probably is. But it doesn’t necessarily mean that our colleges and universities are all wrong. Socialism—or What? The socialistic doctrine of yesterday is the main- stay cf tomorrow’s conservatives; the man who was a radical in the gay nineties finds himself classed as a tory in the year 1927, It wasn’t so long ago that a man could have the department of justice casting eyes upon him sim- ply by suggesting, publicly, that our coal mines ought to be owned by the government. But today? Well, the current issue of the Mag- .azine of Wall Street has a lengthy article discuss- SAmg that very question—and the article is highly & Sympathetic toward the proposal! = ft this article it is stated that not only the coul mijyers, but the mine operators as well, would wel- come" government ownership of the coal mines. | And this is a publication by, of and for Wall Street! The article goes into the coal mining situation: thoroughly. It shows that during the twenty years between 1905 and 1925, there was only one year in which there were less than 25,000 coal miners on strike at one time or another: It asserts that! these long-drawn-out disputes have resulted in vic- | tory for neither side and that neither side nowa-} days really expects victory. In fact, the whole tone of this Wall Street article is favorable to the government ownership proposi- tion. It would take altogether too much space to dis- cuss government ownership intelligently here. The point we are trying to make is this: Our social and economic creeds are changing faster than we realized. ~ Twenty years ago—even ten years ago—Wall Street would have thrown up its hands in horror at ‘a government ownership proposition for. the Fs hie industry. Now we find a Wall Street 4 ition, representing Wall Street’s inner circle, aid the question without a tremor. ae) ly, times do change! Ege Something to Remember ae et -ppecial issue of two-cent postage stamps will printed this summer to commemorate: the defeat of Burgoyne’s army at Saratoga during the Revolu- tion. \ This is a good idea: The great struggles of the World War—the titanic combats at. Chateau Thierry St. Mihiel—have rather overshadowed those bat- long ago. Saratoga’s total casualty list looks small compared with that of even a minor engage- ment. on the western front; but we should not let 3 that make us forget Saratoga’s importance. . |—the peace-time betterment of American youth. | G.

According to this cheerful highbinder, he has} lost $1,500,000 on horses-and dice during the last! two years. This money, you know, was gained) through his own gambling houses and through bootlegging. : This item calls for a comment of some kind; but somehow we can’t seem to say anything that will do the case justice. But what a revealing little | fact it will be for future historians who try to piece together some idea of our present-day civilization! | The Associated Press could be wider of the truth, It is foolishly said that The Associated Press dreads ‘competition. On the contrary, it welcomes it and thrives by it. This is due to the fact that it is a body of some 1,200 news- papers in all parts of the United States, represent- jing all parties, all religions, all sections, and bound together merely for, the sake of the collection and mutual exchange of news. It is not a privately owned or money-making concern, All the profits the sake of strengthening it.

Editor Journal of the American Medi- cal Association and of Hygeia, the Health Magazine Human beings ali over the world have, since time immemorial, regu- larly used drugs of one type or an-) other for various purposes. The natives vf South America’ chewed coca leaves because they; believed that this relieved’ fatigue. Actually it gives a dose of cocain sufficient to abolish hunger and to give a sense of euphoria or well being, ulthough in the long run, the habit is injurious to health. Na- | tives of the Orient chew the betel| nut for the same purpose. It has) been estimated that one-tenth of all! human beings in the world indulge! in this habit. | The use of opium and its deriva- tive, morphine, and the use of cocain are addictions apparently difficult to! overcome once they are established, | ‘and apparently dependent to a large extent on weakness of the will as) weil as on some changes brought| | about in the body by the habitual! | use of the substance. | Tea and coffee «contain caffein| their chief drug. It has been! aid of coffee that it is the drink! which cheers but not inebriates.

It 'is not habit-forming in {the same ‘sense, as are | jcocain. The best scientific evi-) dence indicates that taken in mod-j searioey tea and coffee are not harm- | ful. | Many persons ate known who have persons who react . unfavorably. to stimulation of any kind, should avoid tea or coffee. In such people sleep is interfered with, and the system is constantly whipped up to a point where the/ nervous system is unable to withstand the strain. It is also inad ble, when great- ly fatigued, to attempt to relieve this feeling by drinking’ tea or coffee. This is like whipping a tired horse, The caffein does. not relieve the fatigue, but merely gives stimulus sufficient to overcome the fatigue, placing, however, an added burden up- on the worn-out’ tissues. A person éngaged in | mental ac- tivity sometimes finds a cup of coffee a temporary bracer of great value. Used in this gvay, it may be highly desirable; but not when - repeatedly used without rest so-that the effects of fatigue accumalate.
