MODERN IDEA OF
FORCED LEARNING
“Never regard your study as a
duty,” said Albert Einstein to the
Princeton students, “but as an en
viable opportunity.”
Quite true! But how shall the
student know this, if we persist in
treating the university as a school in
which tasks are assigned as a bur
den, and punishment is meted to
those who do not do them?
If study is an opportunity, the
ondy penalty for not taking advan
tage of that opportunity is failure to
reach its goal. He that does not
learn has thereby lost learning, just
as he that does not eat has thereby
lost nourishment. Why should it be
anybody's task to force learning om
him? If he does not want it, that is
bis verdict that he has no use for it.
Probably he is right,
Primary learning, for children, I 8
a duty. They do not know why they
need it, and they may not want it.
But, since they will be a burden to
others when they grow up, if they
do not learn, we have laws te com
pel them to go to school, and we hire
taskmasters to make them study.
But not higher learning. Nobody
needs that unless he does need it,
and he is the best judge of that.
The university should offer learning
to all who wish it and are able to
recelve it. Why force it on others
or think it anybody’s business but
theirs whether they choose to take

Imposing Defenses of a Bloodier Turkish Age
CHARAC'I‘ERISTIU of the new Turkey is the fact that the harem of the Ottoman sultans, who for centuries tyr
annized over the Near East, has been transformed into a museum, and the. casual visitor may wander through
precincts once more closely guarded than any other in all the world. The harem was the most luxurious of
women's prisons—for prison it was for its Inhabitants—with its elaborate entrances, pillared courtyards, beautiful
mosaics and Jeweled treasures, Including a throne inlaid with 25,000 pearls and a cradle inlaid with 120,000 pearls.
In the days of its glory the harem contained from 300 to 400 women at a time. Four of these were the legal wives
of the sultan, in accordance with the teachings of the Koran, and the others were attendants of the wives, The
picture shows the fortress-like entrance to the palace, which represents several centuries of building.

had just hopped over the Old Orchard
when a beautiful clear, loud whistle
drew his eyes to the top of an apple

short. He couldn’t quite believe that
he saw what he thought he saw. He

hadn’t supposed that anyone even
among the feathered folk could be
quite so beautiful.
The stranger was dressed all in red
except a little black around the base
of his bill. Even his bill was red. He
wore a beautiful red crest, which
made him still more distinguished
looking. And how he could sing!
Os course Peter lost no time in hunt
ing up Jenny Wren. ‘“Who is it, Jen
ny? Who is that beautiful stranger
with such a lovely song?’ cried Peter
as soon as he caught sight of Jenny.
“Glory the Cardinal,” replied Jen
ny Wren promptly, “Isn’t he the love
lest thing you've ever seen? If 1
were Mrs. Cardinal I'm afraid I should
be jealous. There she is in the very
same tree with him, Did you ever see
such a difference?”
Instead of the beautiful red of
Glory, Mrs, Cardinal wore a very dull
dress. Her back was a brownish
gray and her throat a grayish-black.
Her breast was a dull buff with a
faint tinge of red. Her wings and tail
were tinged with dull red. But If she
wasn’'t handsomely dressed she could
sing. In fact, she was almost as good
a singer as her handsome husband.

“Well, you needn't think that of
Glory,” declared Jenny in her vigor
ous way.“ He's just as fine as he
{s handsome, He's a model husband.
If they make their home around here
you will find him doing his full share
in the care of their babies. Sometimes
they raise two families. When they
do that Glory takes care of the first
lot of youngsters as soon as they are
able to leave the nest, so that Mrs.
Cardinal has nothiflz to worry about
while sitting on the second lot of eggs,
Everybody loves (:‘:nry. Excuse me,
Peter, I'm going over to find out if
they're really going to stay.”
When Jenny returned she was 8o
excited she counldn't keep still a min
ute. “They like it here, Peter!” she
cried. “If rhf'-y can find a place to
suit them thgy are going to stay, My,
they will asdd a lot o the quality of
this neighborhood!”
Mr. and Mrs. Cardinal whistled and
sang as if their hearts were bursting
with joy and Peter sat around listen
ing as if he had nothing else to do.

Wm SAT and talked beneath the
trees,
A scarlet bird sang from the wall
The wind blew silver harmonies,
And Paula did not speak at all,
Os those who shared the garden close,
She was the only prisoner;
She and a flaunting yellow rose
From the green garden could not
stir.
In her low chair she sat apart,
Her trusted crutches by her side,
Her eyes the mirror of her heart,
Her busy hands a sign es pride.
And as we spoke of many things,
The changing world, the lengthening
mile,
She watched the flirt of redbird’s
wings,
And smiled a little, secret smile,
Across her countenance it went,
As sunlight flits upon the sea;
And watching her, I grew content
With life, and all it gave to me.
In that gay group of women none
Abjured the world but she. .., The
grace
Os her sweet spirit met the sun
And played upon her classic

First Use of Paper Money
Paper money hag performed an im
portant part in the history of these
United States. Adopted as a matter of
necessity, and not from choice, by the
Massachusetts Bay Colony, in 1600, it
was gradually issued by other colonies
until in general use by all. It was the
original intention of the Colonies to
have it equal current coin, but depreci
ation took place, followed by succeed
ing issues of paper money, until it
became practically worthless.
Claim Paper Violin Is
of Superior Quality
A violln made from the gummed
paper used in orthopedic appliances
has been shown in Vienna, and it is
claimed that it possesses a tonal
qualily comparable to instruments
mmde from selected weods by the
bedt Italian craftsmen,
The acoustic properties of the
gammed paper were accidentally dis
eovered during the manufacture of
orthopedic appliances and the vie-
Kn was made as an experiment.
While it is possible to construct
eisily enough from paper an instru
ment rigid enough to permit of use
as a violin sounding board, the purity
of tone could not be gauged without
a test. Popular opinion regarding
the nature and qualities of woods
employed in old violins have recently
been controverted by scientific tests,
Even trained musicians ecannot
readily distinguish between the notes
obtained from a “Strad” and other
highly prized makes when properly
tuned and played.

Why Hospitals Use
a Liquid Laxative
Lifuid
Hospitals and doctors have alwa
used liquid laxatives. And the pub?i'?:
is fast returning to laxatives in liquid
form. Do you know the reasons?
The dose of a liquid laxative can be
measured. The action can thus be
regulated to suit individual need. It
forms no habit; you need not take a
“double dose” a day or two later.
Nor will a mild liguid laxative irritate
the kidneys,
The right dose of a liquid laxative
brings a perfect movement, and there
is no discomfort at the time, or after.
The wrong cathartic may often do
more harm than good.
A properly prepared liqnid laxative
like Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin
brings safe relief from constipation.
It gently helps the average person’s
bowels back to regularity. Dr. Cald
well’s Syrup Pepsin is an approved
licuid laxative which all druggists
keep ready for use. It makes an
ideal family laxative; effective for
all ages, and may be given the
youngest child, Member N, R. A.
