Our Higher Institutions of Learning the Base
of Educational System
r 1
TV
Ey CALVIN COOLIDGE, Vice President
Our higher institutions of learning, are not tlie
apex of our system of education. They are its base.
All the people look up to their influence anl their in
spiration. They must" be under the guidance of men
of piety and men of an open mind. They must con
tinue their indispensable service to the cause of free
dom by bringing all the people unto a knowledge of
the truth.
There must be an increasing reliance upon relig
ion. It is the source of all faith. It is the evidence
of the eternal purpose, and of the true power, the
true nobility of mankind. It gives a divine sanction to the authority of
righteous government, to faithful service through economic relationship,
mid to the peaceful covenants of international understanding. It repre-i-.'nts
the only hope of the world, the only motive by which mankind can
bear the burdens of civilization.
The peculiar meaning of America is faith, faith in the first place
in an international power, faith in the second place in mankind. There
?i rc those who doubt the stability of republican institutions. There are
luose who question the ability of a people long to maintain a democracy.
The progress of the race does not lie merely in the intelligence, philos
ophy, or the art of a few, but in their possession by the many, in their
general acceptance.
America lays no claim to the discovery of the theory of freedom of
pelf-government. Its glory lies in the ability of its people to put those
theories into practice, nut merely the power to state them but the capacity
to live up to them.
The inalienable right of man to life and liberty and to be protected
in the enjoyment of the rewards of his own industry have thoir source in
religion. The rights of man as man, the dignity of the individual, find
their justification in that source alone. Whenever its teachings were fully
admitted, the rest followed as a matter of course. It was religion that
came first; then the establishment of free government.
AVith these there came the opportunity for a general education, for a
broader service by the institutions of higher learning, which ushered in
the age of science, resulting in the great material prosperity. These were
the institutions which Americans built up and supported out of their
faith in an eternal purpose and out of their faith in mankind.

YONKERS HAS THE CUCKOO
Elderly Lady Discovered She Had
Made Wrong Choice of Her
Resting Poiition.
It Is hard sometimes for the old and
the young to arrive at a common point
of understanding. The old lady and
the Sunday school boy in tills story
did finally arrive at an understanding,
but not until the boy had suffered
duiiia!;e to his feelings, if not to his
possessions.
A picnic was in progress, r.nd the
benevolent and elderly lady took much
enjoyment jn witnessing tlie delight of
tlie children who w ere disporting them
selves in her grounds.
She went from one to another, say
ing a few kind words to each. Pres
ently she seined herself on a grass
plot beside Dickie, a little boy with
Kolden curls and an angelic expression,
liut as snoii us lie observed her sitting
heside him Dickie set up an ear-pierc-ttig
howl.
"Have you the stomach-ache?", she
asked, anxiously. '
"No. I ain't." snapped Dickie. '
"Perhaps you would like some more
cake."
"No!" roared the angelic child.
"What I want Is my frog that I
ketcbed."
'Frog?" ; ,
'Yes, my frog! You're sl'tlng on
him !" Philadelphia Ledger.

from the straight-line figure that has
won the devotion of fashionables, but
It Is not to be a hard straight line.
The Russian Inlluence is felt In coars
as In everything else, and a Ions,
straight coat with a soft blouse, at a
low waistline, is the most promising
variation shown of the straight line
wraps. Tlie uneven hemline Is tin
other style po'nt worth looking for in
new coats, and large novelty fasten
hits placed at one side, on the bloiised
models, are aineng the things that
Ideiitlfv new coats us the last word

them cut In one with the garment,
and coats remain ' long w ish eight

IN THE LAND OF ROMANCE
Commonplace Couple Only Joking
When They Compared Their Dif
ferent Preferences.
They were sitting In the half-dark
ness of the picture theater, holding
hands. They were very small, pale,
and insignificant. He was "something
In the city," she was the same thing
In the female "line."
The stirring drama upon the screen
was "The Queen and the Duke."
"Ain't he a wonderful man?" ap
plauded the girl. "I could die for a
man like that a tall, dark, handsome
man, the kind that is born to rule. I
don't see how she can resist hira!"
Then he had his say:
"Ain't she a wonderful queen?
That's the sort I like the tall, stately
woman that can look you over like a
worm and go trailing them silk robes
round and granting her favors with a
cold, proud smile upon her beautiful
Hps."
"Really, Jack!"
"No, Sue; I was only Joking!"
And they held each other's hands a
little tighter, and tlie screen lost Its
Interest for at least two more In tlie
crowded picture house.
Unknown Australia.

occupy months and cover ground
hitherto untrnversed without the aid

Burmese Story of Man's Origin.
A myth current aaieng the Bur
mese says that hesreuly iwinjjs nme
down from the skiea to the earth, and
there ate Thalesan, a particular kind
of rich rice, which gradually made
them gross of habit, so thut thv were
unable to make their way hack to the
higher heavens again and had to be
come men and women.
The Chins have a story of the
Tower of Mabel to account for. the
various elans that Inhabit the mnge
of hills looking down on the Ray of
Hi ngal, and traditions of a deluge are
found everywhere.
The Kachlns tell a story of the pas
sage over a bridge, to the afterlife,
and there are many more of the kind
'.li.it suggest these folk-myths coiue
down from a long gone past.
To Tell Time Elsewhere.
I' A the convenience to know the
time in other leading cities of the
world as compared with New York
time, a new desk clock has been placed
on the market. This comprises an
attractive brass front in the center of
which is a small clock, says the New
York Times. Surrounding the clovk
Is a dial. This is marked with lines
on which are placed tlie mimes of the
various Important cities. Ry turning
tlie dial to tlie current time In New
York the hour at San Kranclsco, Lon
don, Purls, l'etrograd, Rio de Janeiro,
Tokyo and other cities may be axcer
ained. The dial Is marked with a
dark portion, representing the night
hours, ami the entire face Is easily

Citizen Complains That the Birds Art
Somewhat Too Attentive to"
Business.
A proud but truthful resident of
Yoiikers admitted that there were a
lot of cuckoos there. lie wasn't proud
of the cuckoos, particularly. As far as
cuckoos are concerned, his pride Is
strictly civic. If one must have
cuckoos, he prefers the Swiss kind,
which are vocal only when wound up
and then only at intervals.
The Yonkers cuckoo doesn't have to
be wound up. The imported eight-day
cuckoo Is a piker beside the Yonkers
cuckoo. The Yonkers cuckoo stays
awake half the night waiting 'for the
dawn and each has the same pride in
being the first to salute the earliest
gleam of the sky that a farmer's wife
bus in getting her washing out before
a neighbor's line Is strung. ,
From the moment that the night be
comes faintly luminous until about
9:35 a. m. the air is tremulous with
cuckoos. From 9:35 to 10:05, the
cuckoos knock off for lunch. Then
they're at it again until dark. They
yel "cuck-oo" at every resident of
Y'onkers they see and even at Strang
ers from Peekskill. When the street
Is utterly deserted they murmur
"euck-oo, cuck-oo" Just for practice.
BIRD DOESN'T HAVE TO FLY
Washington Specimen Uses the Street
Car as His Particular Means
of Transportation.
Now that spring is here, it may In
terest bird lovers to know that at
least one bird has solved the problem
of transportation without the use of
wings.
Birds are famous for their migra
tions, but hitherto they always have
used wing power. Now comes along
one local bird who gets himself from
place to place with scarcely the flap
of a wing.
This bird came riding down Penn
svlvania avenue about eleven o'clock
one morning last week. He was
perched on the roof of a street car
coming from Georgetown.
When the car stopped at Eleventh
street the bird alighted, and walked
gravely up and down the platform,
lie was a fine, big fellow, with a black
body and a blue head, but did not look
like a blackbird. ;
After surveying the' post office de
partment for a bit, the bird flew over
to a car about to leave for Mount ver
nin, and established himself on the
roof.
When the car pulled out, the hlrd
was wil! it. -Washington Star.
