Postmortem! and Prophlcles 'By H. I KYLE.
There is a young fellow named Chatt,
His face is round, Jolly, and fat,
At law he's a shark,
But he's scared of the dark,
Now, what do you know about that.

From the narrow path of sport away,
PDon't criticiaa too harshly, pray; -
Consider that It is our way.

W ATKINS ADDRESSES
CHAPEL AUDIENCE
Tells Students What Not to Study
Also Deals With the Great War
at Some Length.
Mr. Albert Watkina spoke to a fair
sized crowd of students and instruc
tors In chapel yesterday morning and
his address proved quite entertaining.
ITe digressed somewhat from his sub
ject in beginning his remarks to take
up the Great War, which he discussed
at some length. His advice to the
students he based upon his experi
ences, and offered proof for his con
tentions. Mr. Watklns illustrated his subject.
"What I Wouldn't Study if I Cafne
Back to College," by various samples
I of political platforms, personal and
party, which he had pasted on pieces
. of paper and then changed into ap
proximately concise and correct lan
guage, with a saving In words of
twenty to twenty-five per cent and a
great Improvement in form and clar
ity. The corrections on the margins
snowed tnat tlve papers were very
much mutilated. Everyone of the
writers of the sample papers was a
college graduate and some of them so-
called classical scholars. The logical
Inference, the speaker said, was that
no student should study rhetoric or
English construction. The seriousness
of this defect seemed Inexplicable and
deplorable, but the speaker added that
he knew enough about the teachers of
English at the university to think that
if the student should do his part they
would do the rest;
The other principal contention was
that students spend too much time on
some subjects to the neglect of others.
He believed in spreading over as wide
a range of studies as possible for the
sake of the breadth of knowledge there
by attained and the number of tools
acquired wtih which to work for in
creased intelligence throughout life.
He would spend some time, not a
long time on the classical languages
as well as on French and German. A
good foundation along merely these
lines had been Invaluable to himself.
So in the "case of such subjects as
chemistry, botany and mathematics,
it was desirable to learn only the
fundamental principles In "order to give
due time to languages, social science,
studies In art,-etc. Only the specialist
could afford to pursue any of these
topics at gfeat length. It was a great
mistake to hold that the average stu
dent should get enough of foreign lan

translation by scholars of peculiar
capacity for Interpreting the foreign
writer.
Perhaps this policy would be con
demned as skimming, but the speaker
had found In an experience of over
forty years that this sort of skimming
had caught the cream.
