Scholarship presents an equally
formidable difficulty. In the many
colleges of the United States few
have exactly the same scholasticy
standards. A student who gets me-
dium grades in one school in cer-
tain cases represents a mentality
equal to that of a student with allI
A's in a college of more lenience, and
vice versa. In addition to this some
of the smaller colleges are known
to put men through school solely
because of their ability as athletes.
Their marks would not necessarily
represent mental activity or effort
expended.
Little need be said about the third;
consideration,-character. It is some-
thing almost impossible to compare;
in different people. Each has his
faults and his virtues, and to weigh1
the two on a definite scale in order
to judge entrants from hundreds of
colleges is to assume something whichI
cannot be done.
Altogether, it would seem that the
St. Louis ball club is motivated by
an ideal which deserves commenda-
tion. But it is extremely likely that1
if a carrying out of the plan is at-
tempted the judges will find them-
selves facing a problem which only:
the gods can solve.

- RE @wTY (OF BRANS
hio Lantern)
Some yc s ago a student of py-
chology made extensive research in
an effort to discover the tap-root of
genius and brilliant mentality. His
publications on the subject were in-
teresting because they were so basic
and made so close an approach to a
truthful explanation of mental phe-
nonena.
This scientist introduced conclusive
evidence in proof of his assertion that
the mental status of individuals is vir-
tually determined at birth. He under-
took to explain isolated instances of
remarkable mental acumen in people
of mean birth, and to show why some
people, given every advantage of so-
cial training and position, are bel v
par mentally. Cases were cited in
which brilliant minds were sprung
from apparently obscure parents, but
in every instance it was proved that
in some antecedent generation there
was mentality of a high level. Kings
might be born from cabbage-heads
and great scientists sprung from a
parental motley, but somewhere in
the line of ancestry there was in-
fallibly a strong link.
It is interesting to watch the opera-
tion of this law in daily contacts, Con-
erally speaking, the student who does
brilliant work in his studies can
point to educated parents or ances-
tors. 'There are inevitably cases in
which students, given the advantage
of brilliant ancestry, fall below the
level, but the ability to measure up to
a high standard of mental life is al-
ways inherent in the progeny.
The modern investigator might in-
stance such cases as the younger Taft
at Yale and the daughter at Bryn
Mawr, of which institution she was
acting president for several years; of
the son of Charles Evans Hughes in
Harvard Law School; of the president
of Yale today, son of James Burrill
Angell, ifichigan's famous executive
of other years; of the Adams line at
Harvard, with whom high intellectual
life has been a tradition; of the Low-
ell family.
It is largely because. colleges and
universities fail to produce such minds
as these that they are subjected to
merciless censure today. But the in-
stitutions of higher learning cannot
make mental power; it is inherent in
the student. Colleges can only give
students the instruments with which
to bring their mental endowment to a
ripe fruitage; obviously if there is no
inherent mental power. there can he
no development of consequence. Col-
leges may be able to improve open
minds; perhaps the wide clamor for
owlication'today is a hopeful sign for
the mental life of the next genera-
tion.
For the present, the cold fact that
so few people are given an heritage
of mental power looms as an ogre
Riun nation on this point leads to th
belief that an "aristocracy of brains'
is more of a living thing than a mere
catchword.

trade in even a more curious manner'
than does the local "lone kid" who
has received so much publicity This
ecicentric robber makes a practice
of entering churches and while wor-
shippers within are kneeling in:
prayer, he snatches purses and rides3
off on a bicycle. Hence he has been
given the unusual name of the "bi-.

LEARNING'S }MiASSY
(Philadelphia Pub. Ledger
The day dawn of a child's mind is -
one of the sublimest spectacles in na-
ture, but assisting in the process is
like trying to help the sun rise. Few
so wise or unabashed as to feel equal
to the task of evoking those orient
intellects, still shining with the star-
dust of heaven.' Wisdom of men and
of angels must meet in the elect of
this high. vocation,
So it happens that Dr. Finegan, a
good man and a wise pedagogue. urg-
es that the best and not the worst of
the State's public school teachers be
assigned to the primary grades. That'
it should be so, lie says, is the plain
right of the youngest pupils and in
harmony with the democratic princi-
ple of education.
After all, why should the most skill-
ful teachers, the graduates of normal
schools and colleges, the imasters of
arts and the doctors of philosopliy,
ilistruet the pupils in the high schools
and raw, untrained girls, with little
more than a grammar-school edu-
cation, as sometimes happens, be in-
trusted with the intellectual fortunes I
of the little ones? A sort of scholas-
tic equity enters into the matter. The
vast majority of children are con-
denmned by hard circumstance to leave
sclool after the grammar grades.
Yet their parents pay in school taxes
for their complete education. If the
years of school must be compressed
into the brief term of early child-
hood, why not give them the best
teachers possible, that with lit l-
sehooling they yet. may be thoroughly
grounded in the fundamentals?
The need is to bring up the standard
of primary school teaching. The need
is to impress upon the teachers of
the e large, noisy, sometimes stupid
classes the dignity as well as the
difficulty of their work. They belong
to the corps diplomatique of learning.
