is distinctly an o.d world product.
But although it is cf European incep

from her tr.c- folio ing:

".Vni'-rica has been forced very rap

the t-'.ol:.tion of social organization

urtiveraitic-.i. at an all-round develop
ment, physical and social ns well as
intellectual, and to provide means of
physical and social well-being far in
advance of anything we have yet at
tained. But, most important of all.
It has constrained her to relate the
teaching of subjects to life, in order
to interest and to afford intellectual
nourishment to many who do not
come from cultivated surroundings,
and who are not preparing to bo schol
ar or educational specialists. . . .
"America is so intensely alive; it
is her eager and thrilling vitality
which, above everything else, strikes
the English visitor to ber shores: re

at first it may slightly overpower him.
"We, cf the Old World, are Just a
little weary disillusioned it may be,
critical certainly; and. In academic
circles, we have been known at timet
to be somewhat suspicious and unre-
ccptive about new methods. This is.
possibly, the penalty of a long tradi
tion and. accumulated experience of
centuries of scholarship centered at
our old universities and from them
radiating throughout the country.
This experience may, perhaps, be
helpful to the New World, desirous of
raising its standards to a high degree
of finish and perfection. On the oth
er hand, in the special task which
lies before us in England, of the re
fashioning of our education in closest
relation to life, in order to meet the
needs of our great industrial popula
tion, I believe that America, of all
i..e countries of the world, is the one
that can teach us most."
Contemporary Opinion
TAFT ON ATHLETICS
Are modern colleges putting the
cart before the horse in the matter of
education and athletics? Ex-president
Taft believes athletics are in the pro
cess of assuming the role cf the cam
el which eventually superseded his
host and took up all the room.
Mr. Taft, in a recent address before
lumni of Yale, expressed the belief
that the growth of bis intercollegiate
athletic exhibitions was militating
against the intellectual life cf the m-
j stitutions. and should be curtalied.
I He further said that colleges are to
! promote students' minds from that
! principle.
That college athletics have grown
of recent years at an amazinar rate
is true. Stadiums which will scat
50.000 persons have been built and
j roved too small to accommodate the
the crowds that wish to see the grid
iron heroes perform. Nearly every
college which amounts to anythins
n stadium or :s p.anmn? -u:

A note cf warnip.z has been sound-p
(d. however, that contains wisdom,
' Athletics in colleges now occupy
ac-'enouzh of the spotlight, and while it

their present size, much more devel
