Purpose Of Learning
Helen Keller, most famous of the world's Mind people since Homer,
seems to aee with surprising dearness what is going on in the world,
and what it needs. She writes in a letter to a college publication:
“Let u* remember to include among our standards the highest truth
—that human welfare i* the only ultimate goat, the sole justification
r the immense enthusiasm width* great sacrifice iaid upon the altar
of learning. Civilizaiion expands or collapse* at we foster or neglect
the eenyrtUdyal—to multiply the blessing* and lessen fits calamities
of mankind.
“The momentous need to which all our present problems point is to
gather all philosophies, which shall bring peace, sanity and healing to a
fear-driven, bewildered world?"
Dr. Alexia Carrel, who wrote the great book, “Man the Unknown,"
would agree with Mtss Keller about this. So would the great eighteenth-
century Pope, who said "The proper study of mankind is Man.” What
human knowledge i* for is mainly to make human life more worth
living, ft would be a wonderful thing if aH the boy* and gtria going
to college could start with this idea and hold to it.
And now how long'will it be until “An Austrian army awfully

What’s What
IN WASHINGTON
By CHARLES P. STEWART
WASHINGTON, D. C.—Our foreign policy has been explained to the
tune of thousands of Words. But what do they mean ? S&rcely any two
recognized authorities are agreed on the answer to that question.
President Roosevelt and his various spokesmen express themselves
voluminously enough, but when querists f*H* tht point, "Ho#, pleas*,
is such-and-such *n utterance to be interpreted?" The stock rejoinder,
to effects is, “Surely that ought to be dear to any normal intelligence.”
Weil, if so, sub-normal intelligence must be in about a 99.0 per cent
majority.
Oh, yes, we all know w« have to have a powerful armamlhi for
it* wonderful new plant necessary “purely defensive" purposes. But who ever heard of a country which,
and upon the fine edition celebrst- getting Into a war, admitted that it waa getting in otherwise than

Her brother seemed to have
plenty of money, but he gave her
no explanations. ' He said' he was

not encourage ncr to ask ques-

admitted having helped her

been quite ready to promise her
to have nothing more to do with

When, however, her brother
