Purple and gold as sunset of the North , Thou Pansy , toll what thought lies hid in theo ; Dost dream upon a time when knights went forth , The pomp and splendor of thy court to see ? In trailing robes of satin and brocade , Didst reign a queen o'er nations wild and vast , Till ruthless Time decreed their suns should fade , Their glories be but ashes of the past ? Close to thy side , all fierce in black and gold , A pansy warrior guards thee still with care. i Dost thou recall u day when , over-bold , He wooed thce with the sunlight on his hair ? And near in shadow , pale as some sweet saint , A snow-white pansy opens to the day A pious nun with pallid lips and faint , Who bows her head the while she seems ' to pray. For thee , O pagan princess of the dawn , For thee , O warrior knight of valorous deeds Thepale nun prays , with downcast face i and wan , - - While through her lingers slip the silent beads. And is it true that all the prayer and love , And all the wealth and worldliness of powers , When centuries have come and gone , will prove Mere memories in thoughtful pansy flowers ?

I well remember a long conversation which I had with one of the best Eng lish scholars , who came over here to lecture when I had been only a short time in the country , and was without experience in American academic affairs , says Prof. Hugo Munsterberg in the May Atlantic. We spoke about the disappointingly low level of American scholarship , and he said to me : "Amer ica will not have first-class scholarship , in the sense in which -Germany or Eng land has it , till every university pro fessor in the leading universities has at least ten thousand dollars salary , and the best scholars receive twenty-five thousand dollars. " I was at that time shocked , and called it a pessimistic and materialistic view. But he insisted : No , the American is not anxious for the money itself , but money is to him the measure of success , and therefore the career needs the backing of money to raise it to social respect and attractive ness and to win over the finest minds. My Oxford acquaintance did not con vince me at that , time , but the -years have convinced me , the years which have brought me into contact with hundreds of students and instructors in the whole land , the years in wliioh I have followed the development of some of the finest students , who hesitated long whether to follow their inclination toward scholar ship , and who went into law or busi ness for the sake of the social premiums.
