America Should
Aid In China's
Uplift
By CHARLES W. ELIOT,
President Emeritus of
Harvard University
T
N China the present is clouded, and the conditions are very-
grave. Americans and the graduates of American universities
should feel the heartiest sympathy in the phenomenon we have
seen worked.
H t I?
AMERICA, I FEEL SURE, HOPES TO GIVE TO THAT GREAT
COUNTRY THE BEST THAT SHE CAN TO GIVE TO THAT MOST IN
TELLIGENT, THAT MOST INDUSTRIOUS AND FAITHFUL PEOPLE THE
SAME POWERS THAT SHE HAS.
K i K
We have witnessed a great change in China, and it could not have
been accomplished unless there had been long preparation for it in the
minds of thinking Chinese. I am in full accord with the men who
have this reconstruction in hand and will hopefully watch to see how
the spirit of freedom and public justice can be spread in China.
The influence of American universities is largely due to the changt
which has been made in the educational systems during the last forty
years. EDUCATIONAL CHANGES AEE NEEDED IN
CHINA. We have been through changes ourselves and are now
reaping the benefits. m v
The great advance is due in the main to- the LNTEODUCTION
OF THE INDUCTIVE METHOD, and it is a method that must
be established in China. It has been responsible for tbe great ad
vancement of the world during the last 400 years.
. Lecturing is the most important of all systems of instruction of
today. The time has come to abandon the old static method. The
fact that the American universities are preparing more men each
year for work in connection with the world's affairs in view of the
fact that the introduction of the INDUCTIVE METHOD has been
responsible for this great advancement should'be A LESSON TO
CHINA.

STUNG
By College Students
By AGNES l BOYD
Two young men stood on the plat
form of a railway station waiting for
a train. At the other end were three
young ladies also ready for departure.
Now, the two men were college stu
dents, and if there is anything else In
the world like a college student It has
not yet shown itself. The collegian is
unique. He usually looks like a man,
but when sifted down is three out of
four parts boy. If he would take as
much pains in his studies as In the
invention of pranks he would be learn
ed indeed. Usually his studies don't
Interest him, while bis pranks are his
delight "
These two young gentlemen on tbe
platform were eying the girls at the
ther end. Then one said something
to the other, the other replied, ' and
when the train came along the one
took bold of the other's arm and. guid
ing his friend, entered the same car as
the young ladies. The latter turned a
seat, and the three girls sat down to
gether. The student led bis friend to
the seats occupied by the girls and,
lifting his hut politely and pointing to
the one vacant seat, said:
"May 1 beg a seat for my friend,
who is blind?"
The expression on the girls' faces as
they looked up changed from irritation
at having a strauger thrust among
them to pity. One girl moved aside,
and the blind man was guided into the
vacant seat by his friend.
"This is no Intrusion upon your con
fidences, said the latter, "for the
gentleman is not only stone blind, but
a deaf mute. He can neither see. bear
nor talk.""
Having said this and thanked the
girls for their courtesy, he took a seat
In another part of the car, drew a
newspaper from bis pocket and began
to read.
What the girls had to say to one an
other was of little Importance com
pared with their Interest in this nice
looking, well dressed young man, who
necessarily lived in a world by himself.
There was a sweet melancholy look on
his face as of one born to sorrow. Not
withstanding that the young ladies had
been told they, could converse near
him without being overheard, for a
time they refrained from extraordina
ry conversation or remarking upon
him; but, since he continued to look
straight ahead of bim into vacancy,
they grew careless and began to say
things about him to one another.
"Poor fellow!"
"Handsome, isn't he?"
"What a pity to be born with two
faculties wanting which prevent a
third! I wonder who he is."
"Did you ever notice the heavenly
! expression there is on the faces of
these unfortunates?"
j "Yes. Isn't it lovely?"
"Divine!"
I This was pretty hard on the student.
wuu was one or me greatest scamps or
his college; but, summoning all his will
power, be kept a straight face
The girls grew bolder.
"I suppose if I should put my hand
on his be wouldn't know whose it was
Anyway, he wouldn't know it to be a
girl's."
"Of course not How should be know
anything about girls when be has
never seen one or heard one speak?"
At that moment the conductor, com
ing through tbe train for tickets, took
two from the blind man's friend.
When be had passed one of the girls
remarked.
"Did you see the other give up this
one's ticket? It wouldn't be any use
for the conductor to ask for it The
poor fellow wouldn't bear."
"The conductor might poke him.
They all do that to passengers who
don't hear or don't wish to hear."
"I never thought of that"
"I have a good mind to touch him to
see what he'll do."
"Don't be silly."
"Wouldn't It be fun to kiss him, be
not knowing who you were?"
"In the train?"
"Certainly not; in a house."
"You wouldn't dare."
"I bet I would."
Meanwhile the blind deaf mute star
ed straight ahead of him, turning nei
ther to the right nor to the left, main
taining that same sad expression of
countenance, though the last remarks
were well nigh too much for him. For
tunately a trainman called his station,
and this helped him to keep a straight
face. His friend got up, came to
where he was sitting, jabbed him in
the ribs with his cane to attract his at
tention and 'lifted him out of his seat
The- blind man gave a groan it was
really to suppress a laugh and the
girls looked daggers at the cruel young
pilot :
"I'd like ttf stick a pin In him,' said
ona
"He's a brute," chimed another.

The former were chatting glibly, and
both cast admiring glances at their
victims.
"Girls, we've been stung."
"Oh. heavens! What did 1 say about

"You made a ninny of yourself;
that's all. J'm ashamed of you."
"Did you ever!"

Turtles and Their Eggs.
Turtles which weigh more than 150
pounds are not in demand, as tbe flesh
becomes coarse with age. But these
reptiles grow to 800 pounds and meas
ure seven feel In length
The eggs of the green turtle, a great
delicacy, are generally deposited in the
sand la nests of sixty If not found
by man or eaten by rats or birds they
are hatched out by the heat of the sun
In about eight or nine weeks, and the
young turtles at ouce make for the sea,
where many of them fall victims to
crabs or other fish.
National Headdresses.
There is uo sucli thing -as a national
headdress In America. Even tbe mil
lions of Immigrants and descendants
of Immigrants from countries possess
ing a characteristic headgear prompt
ly discard any such distinguishing
mark during their first week In the
new world. Perhaps the fact that the
English dominated our early history
may account for our lack of peculiar
headgear, for England is the only
country in Europe which has not a
distinctive national headdress. -
Royal Women Gamblers.
Marie Antoinette was a slave to
cards. On one occasion she played for
thirty-six hours at a sitting with but
an intermission of a couple of hours.
"The play at the queen's table at
Fontalnebieau." wrote the Emperor Jo
seph IL. "was like that In a common
gambling house people of all kinds
were there and mingled without de-'
coram. Great scandal was caused by
the fact that several of the ladies
cheated."
Anne Boleyn. Henry VIIL's III fated
queen, was never quite so happy as
when playing for high stakes. Thi
records of privy purse expenses are
full of her winnings from her royal
spouse, for she was a lucky-player.
