kindergarten to the Ph. D. degree,
nevertheless the spirit of Dr. Can
field's remarks remains as true as
when h,e uttered his words some thirty-five
years ago.
"I hope and believe it i:i truo that
the University has influenced the high
schools In many of the better and
finer things connected with their edu
cational development. We have some
times been criticized for influencing
the high schools too much. Even tho
standards that we have advocated,
equipment, scholarship, entrance re
quirements and the like, are some
times said to be out of harmony with
the inhabitants of a new agricultural
Btate. On the other hand, some have
thought that we have allowed too
much emphaRis to bo placed on extra
curricular things, athletics, frater
nities, sororities, and social life;
that we have been too tolerant of
the excesses of the times, and not
sufficiently resisted the exuberance
of youth. We have sometimes thought
it necessary to reply that we did not
make our times, that we can only in
some measure guid"? and direct the
current of public fceline and thought
to the best of our ability, with the
means at our disposal.
"There is, in my opinion, no
thought more essential to the proper
guidance and1 development of educai
tional tendencies than a just appre
ciation of the value of the various
factors with which we have to deal.
I think the young people too fre
quently get a wrong notion of rela
tive values. If they did not, they
would be much wiser than their sen
iors. With less experience, youth is
not in a position to make sound judg
ments. In twenty-five years from
now you may be much viser than
yourselves of today. I am, therefore,

trying to say a few words to help
young people in making a more just
appraisement of life,
"In order to appraise values Justly
we do not need to take too seriously
into consideration tho immedlnto in
terest aroused. The winners of the
Olympics in ancient Greece probably
created more conversation than the
immortal philosophers teaching irn
their quaint schools, but who of them
now rank with Plato, and Aristotle?
Those of you who in Latin are read
ing the majestic verses of tho Aeneid
are probably not aware that Vergil,
Horace, Ovid and the rest created
less stir in Rome than the public
games of the period. Any of your
lawyer friends will tell you that one
of tho great landmarks of history
was the codification of the laws of
the Roman world at Constantinople
under Justinian. The work of this
commission attracted much less com
ment than the almost forgotten
games of the hippodrome.
"Now do not misunderstand me. I
am not attacking sports or athletics.
I recognize the part that Greek em
phasis on physical education had in
repelling the Persian invasion. Even
the brutal- Roman games probably
had some influence in maintaining
the solidarity of the Empire, and per
haps even the hippodrome contribu
ted something to the strength of an
Empire which was able to hold back
the Moslem hordes frJm Europo al
most to the time of the discovery of
America. The point I wish to empha
size, however, is that sports, con
tests, spectacles, long have had And
will continue to have a prominence
in conversation and in the press al
together out of proportion to their
permanent influence on the thoughts
of mankind. Do not feel, therefore
that they are more important than
those things of more permanent
value. The clouds that tower miles
high over the mountain peaks create
more comment and interest for the,
time being than the mountain itself,
They pass away and are forgotten,
while the granite wall endures.
"Comparisons of late have been
made between the great difference of
interest in the passing of a movie
actor and of America's most distin
guished educator, President Eliot,

Probably there were athletes or ac
tors in ancient Greece whose death
caused more comment than the death
of a Plato or an Arixtotlc. Do not
forget that time emphasizes real val
ues, and do not confuse real values
with ephemereal interest.
"Tho purpose of all worthy educa-
tior) then, is to fit one for successful
living, and to be successful one must
live worthily. Tho more he contri
butes to his day and generation, the
more worthily ho lives. Faithful work
day by day is necessary. Enthusiastic
study day by day is higher than mere
faithfulness. Remember, then, that
to master the curriculum is your
duty, to acquire an enthusiastic in
terest in your studies is an oppor
tunity; and that to participate in
extra curricular activities is a whole
some diversion, but never a matter
of supreme importance.
"In harmony with this thought,
tho members of the faculty of the
University have been gradually rais
ing their standards. It becomes a lit
tle more difficult each year to retain
one's connection with the institution.
To meet these higher standards suc
cessfully and to leave you suff .
time ior recreation, it is nee f
for each class to come to tho institu
tion better prepared than its prede
cessor. You cannot learn to concen
trate and study too young. It is well
for you to acquire early an aim and
purpose in life, even if you go so far
as to outline a career that you will
ultimately not fojlow. It is better
than having no plan for the future.
Let me illustrate what I mean. A
boy once studied mathematics and
science, expecting to be a professor
of physics. He next decided that he
would apply this knowledge as a
practicing engineer. He finally found
that his bent was for the law, and is
now a prominent lawyer specializing
in patent cases, making use of his
scientific and technical knowledge in
a highly professional way.
"My thought is not in any way to
belittle any of the good things of
school life, such as events and social
activities, they all have their place.
My only hope is that I have said
something to enable you to have a
just appreciation of their relative
values. There is nothing incompatible
between the diversions incident to
school life at the end of the week and
enthusiastic devotion to the regular
work of the school on Monday morn
ing. "Do not confuse publicity with im
portance. President Eliot and Ru
dolph Valentino are dead; but Presi
dent Eliot's spirit is a very vital liv
ing force in American education and
will continue to be so, while with the
flowers placed on Valentino's coffin
hardly wilted the movie fans are
looking around for a new hero."
Radium Was Discovered After Months
Of Hard Work, Prof. Hendricks Says
"Have you ever watched the shin
ing figures upon your radio watch
or clock dial at night and wondered
what makes them glow?" demands
professor B. C. Hendricks, in tho
November issue of the Cornell Rural
School Leaflet published in Ithaca,
N. Y. Tho U. S. government consid
ers this and similar questions so im
portant that they have given Madame
Currie, the discoverer of radium
chloride, tho element involved, $70 -000
worth of it to use in her labora
tory for experimental purposes
Radium first camo to the notice of
Dr. and Madame Pierre Currie in the
following way: One day a scientist
placed some material, which looked
like a powder or rock, over some pho
tographic plates which had not yet
been used. Later he found these
plates had been affected as if they
had been exposed to light. He put the
powder, called uranium compoound
away in a very dark room and left
it for several months and tried it
over the plate again. The result was
ihe same.
Why should this material make a
picture upon the plate in the dork
even through its covenng of black
paper? This was the problem that
Madame Currie decided tz solve.
"She first performed some experi
ments which measured these rays
coming from the uranium com
pounds," explains Professor Hen
dricks. "Next she tried to discover
if there were other elements possess
ing the same property and a great
number of minerals had a greater
radiation than the amount she ex
pected. "Madame Currio decided that since
tho uranium compound produced so
much greater effect upon tho photo
grapher's plate than any other sub
stance there must fn o new clement
in it which made tho difference. She
and her husband then separated tho
ore into different substances and
tested each for its rays. By discard
ing the parts that did not show the
rays, they soon found two instead' of
one new ray forming substance. One
was called polonium and tho other
radium.
"Although thov felt certain they
had two new elements, tho scientists
were not ready to accept theni Ater
five vears of slowly and patiently sep
arating the parts containing the pol
onium and radiun from tho other
material in pitcnblend", which thty
had got from Kohomn, Mme. Currie
prepared some puro radium, chloride)
about the size of a pia head.
"By studying th's sho showed to
the satisfaction of ail scientists that
radium was really and truly a new
element never befof3 known by any
body. It seems a grecz deal of trouble

for such a little material, d'esn't it?
But scientists the world over do not
think so. Twice shn has linen given
the Nobel prize for her work, and
scientists are anxious to hear of all
her work and discoveries "
The Varsity football team at the
University of Columbia will use the
huddle system in their football
games this year. This system was or
iginated at Princeton and haa since
been taken up by several colleges
and among them Yale and Harvard.
It is the contention of eastern coach
es that it speeds up tho game.
