AROISKS COMMENT.
Infere-nce Gained by AndltorI to
Effect That rnlTer-rftj Has Xo
Plac for "ATeiTMce Man."
EUGENE. Or.. Feb. 2. (To the Edi
tor ) I bop that I am an average
man. It la. of cour possible that I
hare flattered myself and that I do not
rank so high, bat am lesa than an aver
age. Ftl!!. be that a It may. I am dis
posed to wonder If I drew the Intended
lesson from the address or Profeasor
Phafer last Wednesday. Tha lesson
aeems to be that there Is no place for,
nor any deelre to make a place for. the
average man In the State University.
Notwithstanding tho undoubted fact
that at least i per cent, probably more,
of the 100 persons who listened to him.
would, by any fair teat, be classed as
average or mediocre, only those who
were ft for what Ae chooses to consider
the higher rlaces In the world have
any right to enter those sacred prem
ise and fritter away the time of tha
professors In lmln how to live,
when that precious time might be so
much more valuably spent In teaching
the other per cent what was the '
of trie sllrpers worn by Empedocles
when he walked from his couch to tha
humldarlum.
It Is undoubtedly true that tha at
tempt made a few year ago by tha
colleges to dictate to the high schools
Just what branches they should teach
and how much of each, has utterly
failed. This dictation, accompanied as
It was with the stern proviso that a
failure to live up to Its requirements
would ee punished by refusal to accept
the high school graduate as a fresh
man, resulted In quiet determination
on tha part of those who are paying
the expends and salaries of both, to
take the high school Into their own
hands and decide for themselves how
their children should be trained for
the Inevitable strugcle with the world.
Th men and women whose hardened
hands and bowed shoulders rive per
fect evidence of their Intimate knowl
edge of the fierceness of this struggle,
determined that their boys and glrla
should first have a chance to obtain
a training, which would. If they should
prove to be the only "average" men
and women, enable them to pick up
the portion of the world s work which
should fall to them, and be able to do
Jt with more ease and a greater sure
ty of success than their fathers and
mothers had done, feeling sure that
any fltnees which might exist, for a
Supreme JudsesMp would work to the
surface and assert Itself in spite or
the fact that they had learned to get
a living without It. If it became neces
sary. Culture, even In tha sense In wnlcn
the learned professor osee the word.
In undoubtedly a very valuable acqui
sition. It Is also undoubtedly true
that there are many men and women
In the world who are Just as useful and
Just as necessary to the plan of God s
creation as are even the professors
themselves. The average man, ac
knowledged to constitute the great
mass of mankind. Is patted upon tha
head, told that he Is a good little fel
low and undoubtedly capable of doing
tha rough and unimportant things of
life, and It Is hoped that he will do
this work well and remain quietly con
tented In the position In which God
has seen "fit to place him. but. really,
you know, only those are worth both
ering with who are capable of re
ceiving the polish which can only be
given to them by the college professors,
and hence, by Implication, the college
professors are tie very emhodlment
of that cufture which Is so absolutely
required in order to make a man or
woman worth while.
Is It possible that the average col
lege professor has forgotten the days
when he sat in the chair and with that
marvelous Insight which childhood and
youth alone possesses. . read the very
Inmost souls of those who stood upon
the platform before him? Is It rot
possible that some of the culture which
Is displayed before him may appear
not very attractive to the students? Is
It not poeniblo that he may find, out
side amongst the average men and
women of his acquaintance, a culture
which far better satisfies him and
that he wades through the other wito
a pitying smile, for the sake of the
Tiuggmts of knowledge which he can
hardly obtain In any other way? He
1-arned this from the miner, who wades
through the mud and slush of tlie mine
dump in order to pick up the nuggets
of gold which he knows are there.
College culture Is undoubtedly ad
mirable and deslrabhs but the student,
happily. Is able to find a culture In a
larae proportion of his professors and
widi-iread amongst his acquaintances
outside of that body, which appeals to
. . , - vnm.ilck heart, helps
nis ion,- nt. . ... .
him to lift the burdens the world is j
beginning to pllo upon nis inouwi".
stretches out a helping, guiding hanu
to him in his weary effort to drag
himself upward from the position in
which birth and environment have
placed him. which carefully avoids
touching that raw and bleeding spot
ttal sets his soul quivering with ex
quisite pain by reminding him of that
position and those environments, which
pvlnts out and assists hlrn to climb
the Udder Just as far aa time, cir
cumstances and ability will permit
him. and then, with a hearty Godspeed,
sets his face toward the road which
circumstances make the only one it
possible for him to follow, after
fitting him out with the beat poastbla
equipment for his weary Journey.
Tho contrast appeals to the "aver
age" man In a way which makes him
thank God that there are professors
who are human, soma that are nearly
human and only a very few who are
superhuman, and aa he steps out to
grapple with the world it is possible
that he may remember that somewhere
he heard of the bow-legged floos
walker who. being asked by a woman
where she would find expensive laces,
said. -Just walk thla way. madam." but
the lady, seeing him waddle down the
aisle, quietly remarked. "I guess I
won't walk that way." and turned to
another counter and contented herself
with a bo, of ""-plns.T
