Mere accumulation 30 volumes.of facts, culture and learning is veritably a petty accomplishment as compared with the gift of realizing thefull significance of life. While theone is shallow, the other is deep; theone is superficial 'and passing, the other is permanent and spiritual. Thereis nc more miserable type of mortalthan he who is successful in that hehas acquired possessions and overlooked life, as for instance, the studentwho is graduated "with honors" andyet is utterly purposeless. Education without religion ,it has been said,is useless,-as is living in a housewithout a piece of furniture.

Chamberlin in his Convocation address. Dr. Chamberlin isprofessor of Geology and head of theaepartment of Geology and Palentology. He resigned his position !is president of the University of Wisconsinin order to become aIlied with the newUnversity of Chicago at its foundingin 1892."In the first stage of the University's existence training in the powerof independent inquiry and directivethought were merely dreams", saidProf. Chamberlin. "But as, in thesecond period, the university idea dom-inated the college idea the' realizationof the. original dream came to be anactual possibility. This realization,however, is a matter of decades ratherthan of years."Now the third stage is approaching. The growing spirit of earnestness shown by the student body is acharacteristic. Volumes containing thediscoveries of scholars who are working and have worked in the University halls are reaching out into thewarp and woof of the higher thoughtof the world. In this third period willcome the fuller organization and endowment of research work, and, thefuller realization of the value of creative scholarship,"MANUSCRIPTS ON EXHIBITIONGunsaolus Colleettons Now in Reading Room of Harper.Manuscripts of antiquity and importance, partly presented and partlyloaned by Dr. Frank W.

I shall write a realnovel. Enough of the bosh and claptrap which merely sells. I'll show'em the real thing sells too. Take thetheme ot the wealthy married womanwho finds her cotton-wool environmentintolerable, seeking some sane solution of her anomalous position,-realidea! Truly American!, She mustleave her husband and work, of course.And when she has made a success(Failure?-perish the thought;-) hewill recognize her right to be considered a Person. NowIet'a see whatkind of a girl (she must be young)could she be ? Not the regular societysort, because somehow or other theylike it all. No! she must have abackground which makesher rebellionlogical. This is to' be a real book.We'll make her mother a feminist. Oneof the Pioneers,-so that she still possesses remnants of gentility. And thegirl will be a college' woman, of course.Bqlly start, that! Right, out on thecampus. Real idea. But of course thegirl can't have too many ideas to begin with, else she'd never have gotinto the mess. She's young and ''undeveloped"; that's it! And,-andpretty! Yes, by the gods, I will haveher pretty. A college woman canbe pretty. Piles of 'em are. A woman doesn't have to be .a perfectfrump to have ideas. Besides she's"untrained", and so when she leaveshim she's going into the chorus, andhow: could she get into the chorus ifshe weren't pretty? Once- Mr. Barriewrote a story of a woman who left,her husband by carefully saving tillshe had twelve pounds, And of courseit didn't matter how she looked, be-cause when she met her husband againshe had the Twelve Pound Look. Butthen that was in England. In Americawe want to know bow people look;'and even that one looked like EthelBarrymore or I'll eat my hat!Besides, our heroine's story doesnot depend on her looks. Her husband isn't going to fall in love withher for her looks. The manner oftheir meeting is very unusual. Sheshows in the very beginnin� that shehas spunk. Let's see! How can awoman show she has sphnk? Why, byarguing with the atreet car conductor.of course! The very thing. It ispouring rain and he wants to put heroff the car. Says she didn't pay herfare, and of course she did. And shehas only one more nickel to get homeon. And so when the conductor puta out his hand to detain her from entering the car she says "Don't you dareand touch me l" like a read pe:r"SOJl.And her future husband, who's a real.person himself,--quitt: plentifullyrich, of course, (or else therewouldn't be any point in her rebellion and she'd have no one tJ shockby going on the stage) but a reallawyer for all that and perfectlyhuman; doesn't believe in au ..tomobiles because they clutter up you!'life; rides on the streetcar in thepouring rain like a real democrat andisn't a bit of a snob anyhow; has somereal friends among radical authorsand such ungodly people;-her futurehusband, I say, stepped right off theear with her into the rain. And heaccidentally kept her note book, whichof course he had to return to her; sothat in a couple of weeks they weremarried.Now of course when people aremarried they live happily ever after,-in books. But this is real. And soit becomes humdrum. The excitementof tussles with conductors is a thingof the past, as is likewise the excite'ment of taking notes on the FrenchRevolution. The excitement of strollsto the lake with a bovine half-backwhich once enriched life, is no more,and Rosalind's husband is only herlover and not her friend. Even children cannot compensate for that, because children do not fill the life oftheir mother but of their nursemaid,when father has too much money.Therefore it doesn't interfere at all tolet Rosalind have twins. It just refutes those carping critics who mightotherwise say the solution was unreal.You know how they do it. Look wiseand sophisticated and remark cunningly, "Have you ever noticed that it'salways ,the wives without children wholeave their husbands? These authorscan't face an issue squarely," And soRosalind goes away despite the . twinsand because this is a real story sheonly goes a thousand yards to the other side of Clark street instead of toKansas City or Utah or somewhere.And a further real touch is addedwhen she begins to play in the chorusright in Chicago, never dreaming -ofcourse that she might thereby w,oundher husband's sensibilities. You seethere's no place for a successful theatrical person or for the successfulmodiste and designer which Rose is tobecome, except Chicago or New York.Yet this is to be an American novelexpressing American life. What'g tobe done? Rose has to be successful,according to the premise. Ah! Shegoes on tour; the company getsstranded in Centropolis, and she earnsa, living there as a milliner. Finestuff. It shows us she's the real thing;that all the things the author's beensaYing about her are true. Moreover,it gives' us the small town with its.narrow prejudices as weil as the bigmetropolis. The whole thing is perfectly logical .. It turns the trick. Evenher success and final reconciliationwith husband is gradual enough to bequite as perfectly real as the mostexacting realist could demand." I don'tknow what isn't real unless somehow,despite everything, she isn't. and heisn't. The situations are real enough.Can the people be merely puppets setup to carry out a neat theme logically? Can it be. that the real Americannovel is not yet?Hold Reception Friday.The Christian Science society willhold a meeting and reception for itsmembers and alumn Friday at 7:45 inLexington 14.THE BOBBS-�lERRILLPAKY, $1.50 r\ET.By Dorothy Weil, '14."A readable book; a serious book;altogether the best thing Mr. Websterhas done."
