UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.Single Copies10 Cents. CHICAGO,: ILLINOIS, SEPTEMBER 10, 1896. VOL. IV, No. 47.HALF TRUTHS.REV. FRANK CRANE.The Bible alone, of all books, mercilessly uncovers -the faults of its heroes. Its great ones include lyingAbraham, incestuous Lot, drunken Noah, adulterousDa vid , and its wise man Solomon comes down to oldage as a senile backslider. Only an inspired recordcan afford to be so mercilessly truthful.Historical accuracy is a modern invention. Onlyin these latter days has criticism been applied to his­tory, and has eliminated much of the story of Greece,Rome and medieval times. Yet the Bible narrativestands the test of antiquarian discoveries, higher criti-.cism and the testimony of the sciences.Even to-day passion destroys or mars histories; asthe lives of Columbus and Washington, and Napo­leon are usually written from a preconceived stand­point which taints precision. They are flavored withpraise or detraction.Consistency is the evidence of fiction. All realmen, except idiots and fanatics, are inconsistent. Sothe figures of sacred story combine faults and virtues.It is a little strange that the only perfect man wasthe most sympathetic, the most charitable towardsothers' weakness. True goodness, therefore, is notpriggish, only temporary virtue is so : and we are hot­test, in our pious moments, against the very evils towhich we are other times prone.What are we to. learn from the mistakes of greatmen?We are not to imitate them; Every hero touchesthe sky,' but also stands upon the earth; and to imi­tate his errors is to emulate him at his lowest point.We are not to be like him where he resembles, butwhere he excels, common men. It is characteristic ofsmall minds to. follow the faults of genius. They canmore easily put on the headstrongness of Jacksonthan his integrity, the selfishness and theatric posingof Napoleon than his intense application, the story­telling of Lincoln than his humaneness. But theflaws of a genius are no part of his genius.Their mistakes are rather to encourage us. ThusLongfellow:" St. Augustine, well hast thou saidThat of our vices we cau frameA ladder, if we will but treadBeneath our feet each dee'd of shame." And Tennyson, alluding to the above:" I hold it truth with him who singsTo one clear harp of divers tones,That men may rise on stepping-stonesOf their dead selves to higher things."A deception may be right when it shades into just. and charitable repression of hurtful facts or dispro-portionately magnifies another's virtues. But themotive is the test.A lie is hurtful in proportion to its admixture oftruth, as to. mingle fable in history or our own concep­tions in our account of a neighbor's deeds. Truthand fiction are like two harmless chemicals whichmixed make a poisonous compound. The clerkexcuses himself from the office because his mother issick; this is one half the truth, the other half is thathe was not at her bedside but at the ball game. Themerchant advertises he has marked down his goods;the other half is that he previously marked them up,The newspaper published that its political opponent haskilled a man: the other half is that he did it in self-defense. It is manifestly true that 110 woman is betterthan she ought to be; yet, if you say this with theproper tone, it is slander.A lie must make up to imitate truth. It mustborrow truth's clothes. A lie must wear clothes,truth may go naked. Thus Adam and Eve began towear clothes when they began to deceive. Iagosays:When devils will their darkest deeds put onThey do suggest at first with heavenly shows.Truth gives no thought to dress-'tis always ready-but a lie must primp and powder. It is a greatcompliment to religion that men simulate it and thatno religious man pretends to be irreligious.Every lie is intrinsically ugly and repulsive. Badart, bad music and bad literature is simply lying art,lying music and lying literature. We speak of the"beauty of holiness" because to be holy is man'sideally true condition. A true character will havesymmetry and proportion and health and vigor, whichare also the elements of' beauty. To be true is to bebeautiful. The good, the true and the beautiful are atrinity; three, yet one.1038 UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.The habit of deception is the mother of all vices.It is the trunk of the tree whose branches are theft,lewdness, hypocrisy and the rest. Above all thingsthe child should be taught a white life. The hatchetincident is the best story ever told of the youth of agreat man. No girl will go astray who habituallytells her mother the truth. No boy, who can tellnothing but the truth, will do what he is ashamed totell. A truthful nature is better than one emotionallydevotional. Many criminals have been noted forreligiosity, none for truthfulness. And it is the con­servator of all vices. Arch-villain Holmes was pri­marily a liar. His murders were accessories to hisfrauds. The sin confessed is half cured. Disclosurelances the boil of vice. It is sin cherished in wardlythat rots the soul. So we pray with the psalmist:" Cleanse thou me from secret faults. " No man whohas the habit of truth can go very far into depravity;he will overtake himself. The Roman church hasthis virtue in the confessional, that it purges the soulto speak its crimes.Half-truths about man do damage. He was madefor happiness, to be sure, but for intelligent and per­manent happiness, not beastly and temporary. ' Tishuman nature to err; certain, but not the best andhighest human nature, which leads us to confess andrenounce error. Life is short, this also is but half thetruth, for its short term here is the prelude of a longcareer hereafter; the conclusion of the half-truththerefore may-be, "Eat, drink and be merry, for to- morrow we die," but of the whole truth is, " Is notthe life more than meat? Seek first the kingdom ofGod and all these things shall be added." To holdthat man is wholly depraved leads to despair: to holdthat he is wholly good will obliterate all moral dis­tinctions: therefore, the Gospel fits the state of manby assuming both these half-truths as one whole, ad­dressing itself to man as lost and fallen and yet ap­pealing to him as having infinite possibilities andseeds of virtue.How shall we escape the pitfall of half-truth?How shall we become wholly truthful?First, by striving always to be and not to seem.Much of our desire for learning, piety and promi­nence, is merely a craving to be called wise or goodor great. We want to master Greek, not so muchthat we may be perfect scholars as that we may beso reputed.Again, we should be eager to attain the virtue ofintegrity, or wholeness. Thoroughness is an Ameri­can need. The best paid man in the store is the onewho writes the advertisements. The Greeks weresculptors and architects; we are painters, grainers,and live in "stone fronts." We' are all dying witheagerness to become known. So we are flooded withquack doctors and advertising churches and SalvationArmies, who attract with brass bands. Have we lostfaith in the drawing power of truth and genuineworth? The result is we come to have an artificialreligion. jCOLLEGE SECRET SOCIETIES.(PART I.)A. P. JACOBS.The attacks which have been made upon the secretGreek-Letter fraternities have been only more ridicu­lous than the lines of rebuttal adopted by certainmern bers of those organizations. Some one has saidthat Christianity must indeed be of divine origin elseit never could have survived Mr. Jeremiah Black'sdefense of it against Colonel Ingersoll's strictures;and in reading- what has been advanced in behalf ofthe" Greek" societies by writers whose experienceis limited to petty colleges or perhaps to agriculturalschools or scientific institutes, I have realized thatthe worst enemies of the fraternities are their i11-equipped advocates. Unable to see that a consistentdefense of a great number of good, bad or indifferentsocieties is impracticable, these rash volunteers invari­ably are worsted in debate. It is clear that the ques­tion is not whether the fraternities have a right tolive; but whether each particular fraternity, judgedby its members and its record in the various colleges wherein it has had branches, is worthy of approval.Although I have been for twenty-five years amember-and a devoted member-of a secret Greek­letter order, I have never been able to regard the col­lege-society system, so-called, as an unmixed good.In my student days two or three of the societies in thecollege were altogether worthless. He who joinedone of them was certain to lose in reputation if not incharacter. I have been informed by college presi­dents and professors - themsel ves graduates of" Greek" societies - that in some of the smallerWestern institutions the influence of the societieshas been very bad. From all that I can learn,however, the fraternities are improving in disciplineand in morals; certainly the complaints against themare weaker and less frequent; and we may hope,unless there is in them something inherently vicious,that many of the student federations will ultimatelyrise to a high plane. I propose in this article to con-UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.sider briefly some of the objections that have beenurged against, and some of the characteristic defectsand mistakes of these societies.It is not worth while to discuss at length the ques­tion whether secrecy per se is or is not an evil. Mostmen and many women belong to secret societies.The few who hold that secret organizations are neces­sarily dangerous to the cause of morality and inim­ical to the welfare of the- state, cannot be convincedof their error by any argument however strong. Mr.Charles Dudley Warner went to the root of the mat­ter when he said that whether secrecy is injuriousdepends very much upon what the secret is. Notanything in the constitution or in the by-laws of anyof the college societies inculcates immoral doctrinesor encourages vice. No doubt it is true that some ofthe branches of these student clubs are largely com­posed of persons whose morals are 'not above re­proach; but it would be hard to show that the re­quirement of secrecy has anything to do with theconduct, good or bad, of the members of the secretorders. Speaking very positively for one fraternity Ican say that if any member of it lives otherwise thanuprightly, the fault is his and not that of the order.Nor is it true that secret societies offer greater oppor­tunities for political or other combinations than theywould if they were not secret. As a society man Ihave never regarded the anti-secret argument as im­portant. In the large colleges few students refuseelections on this ground. During my long experi­ence I have not known more than two or three desir­able men who were conscientiously opposed to joininga secret society simply because of the secrecy. Notlong ago I made a thorough examination of the cat­alogue of the non-secret college fraternity- all ofwhose earlier members were pledged to anti-secretprinciples-and I found enrolled therein hundredswhom I knew to be members of the Masons. the OddFellows and other secret organizations. N ow it isimpossible to conceive of objections to secrecy whichwould not apply as well to postgraduate as to under­graduate life; and, therefore, one is forced to concludeeither that these members were not sincere while incollege, or that their convictions underwent a changeafter they had received their diplomas.Speaking of secrecy, it has always seemed to meabsurd and almost fraudulent for members of the col­lege fraternities to assure candidates that these organizations are not particularly secret, but are simplyprivate. This is as short-sighted as it is false. Tobe sure, the societies are not absolutely secret-that is,their grip and mottoes cannot always be kept from'outsiders-but for all that their secrecy is amplysufficient to work injury if secrecy itself is injurious.Aside from the fact that those who in these timeshave scruples on the subject are usually weak-kneed 1039and undesirable, it seems to me that the societieswould better stand up for what they really are. Themore secret a society is the more attractive it is­other things being equal-to the American collegestudent. In these days when nearly everything ispublished to the world, the organization which re­quires its transactions to be kept secret bids fair tosecure the best men. Therefore I have always feltthat if a student hesitates to join a society because ofits secrecy he should be told that he is not wanted inan organization that is professedly secret. I am awarethat old and eminent members even of my own fra­ternity have thought otherwise, but I am also awarethat their practical experience is limited, and thatthey have not sufficiently considered what would be .the consequences were. their views adopted. I thinkthat the tendency in the best societies is to strengthenrather than to relax the obligation of secrecy, andthat those societies which enjoin absolute secrecy inregard to their transactions will be the most pros­perous.Astronomers at the Yerkes Observatory.The Yerkes Observatory will be visited for the firsttime this week by a party of foreign astronomers, whowill be the guests of the University while in the city.The party so far as known will include Professor W.H. M. Christie, astronomer royal of Great Britain;H. H. Turner, professor of astronomy at OxfordUniversity, and Captain Hills of London. The dis­tinguished visitors come direct from Japan, wherethey made observations of the solar eclipse. A partyof French scientists are also expected and the com­pany will be in charge of President Harper andDirector Hale.The observatory is fast nearing completion and thebig dome will be under cover in a few days. Thetelescope will probably be ready for use October IS,and at least four professors will make Lake Genevatheir home during the coming winter.Harvey at the University.Mr. W. H. Harvey, author of "Coin's FinancialSchool," addressed the members of the University onMonday evening in Kent Theater. A large crowd ofstudents and residents of Hyde Park were in attend­ance and listened for two hours to an exposition ofprinciples by the well-known champion of bimetallism.The speaker tried as far as possible to answer the ar­guments for the gold standard presented by WilliamE. Mason in his speech in Kent two weeks ago. Thespeaker pointed out that the" crime of ' 73 " was onlyincidental to the debasement of silver and that peoplein general and the workingmen in particular wouldbe benefited if silver were restored to its rightful posi­tion in our coinage system.1040 UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY of the clubs in bringing these speakers here, seems,therefore, to have been fully justified.

The fact that the observatory buildingwhich is to be the home of the Yerkestelescope is nearing completion is turn­ing the attention of astronomers toward Lake Geneva.Some distinguished astronomers from Great Britainare visiting the observatory this week, and they arebut the vanguard of scientists who will make Genevatheir Mecca within a few years. And it is safe to saythat probably few gifts which the University has yetreceived will make the University as well knownamong great institutions of learning as will this tele­scope. The wisdom of the donor is now seen to mani­fest itself more than ever when it is considered whatthe great telescope is destined to accomplish in thescience of astronomy.The plan inaugurated by the Repub­lican Club of the University in invit­ing a champion of the gold standardto address the members of the University, has beenfollowed this week by the Bryan Club, which securedCAMPAIGNSPEAKERS.a well-known advocate of the bimetallic standard tospeak here.

The nationalcommittees are willing to assign good speakers to theUniversity, and the Bryan Club and the RepublicanClub ought to be on the alert to get the best men thecommittees will send them.FOOTBALLTRAINING. As the football practice continues, it is en­couraging to note that more and moreattention is being given to the matter ofThis is as it should be, for inability totackling.tackle well has been one of the chief weaknesses of'Varsity football players. Some of the men on for­mer teams, who have made weak tackles which weresometimes very costly, have complained that they didnot know how to tackle. Consequently what is nec­essary to be done in order to develop the men in thisrespect and make them on a par with the members ofother leading football teams, so far as tackling goes,is to emphasize this point in training. This is beingdone now, and already the men who are trying for theteam are beginning to show improvement. Thereforelet the good work go on.Greetings from Major McKinley.The WEEKLY'S presidential election has been cop­ied far and wide, and leaders of the different partieshave given it wide circulation.

But ourpolicy, like Lincoln's; is governed largely by circum­stances. When a comet sails into the sky one can­not be expected to gaze at ordinary stellar bodies. Inthis instance the splendid visitant sweeping into therange of the Stroller's telescope was the Cook CountyTeachers' Institute held at the University recently.Now, it must not be supposed that we intend tospeak lightly of this gathering. By comet we did notmean an astrological vagary that ought to he headedoff by a bull of the Pope, a "scorching" cyclistamong the stars whom some policeman should takein tow, but simply an unusual phenomenon. Indeed,we have had for many years a profound respect forcultivators of the young idea. We began our scho­lastic career in a little red schoolhouse. In those daysthere was rotation in office, a new teacher each termwho started us in at fractions. The old one-capitulatedto some swain, as Pope calls him, and got married.Modern improvements, such as sand boxes, comfort­able seats and legislation against corporal punishmentwere unknown. The convenient birch taught us re­spect. The more athletic a school-ma'am the morewe reverenced her. But hold! some there were whohad seen the vision of iife and the future, and likeMerlin, pointed the way and cried:" After it, follow it,Follow the gleam."A regular student, who disregards University noticesand term bills, was surprised last week to see severalhundred people pouring out of Cobb and distributingthemselves in lunch parties in the grove. His firstsurmise was that there had been a large influx of newstudents, and he at once looked around for verdureand "football material.' Observation called up thespecter of doubt and he then inferred that the com­pany was a Sunday- school out for its annual picnic.He joyfully set out to discover the lemonade barrel;alas, there was none. Could they be an adjournedsession of a Woman's Congress, with a few men whocould conduct the opening and closing exercises andbe used for illustrations, as the campaign presti­digitator uses Mexican dollars? His perplexity wassolved only by an appeal to the Information Bureau.There he learned that the University was not forgetfulto entertain strangers, then he went out to see ifangels were not being entertained unawares.The Stroller was much pleased with his observa­tions.

With no food before them thedivinity (?) man sat there and the campus swell satthere-both soliloquizing. The divinity man seemedto be dreaming about the chicken dinners he wouldhave spread before him after he had received a callfrom some congregation, and the swell was perhaps.wondering whether he had not better make a break­fast out of a sandwich and a glass of milk, insteadof spending twenty cents for it, and use that otherdime to help to pay for having his dress suit pressed.The young lady stood there waiting for her turn.It is needless to say that no chivalrous gentleman,whether he pretends to be a servant of God or lays claimto being a leader of society, will allow a young lady tostand hungry while he sits. If we are acquaintedwith young ladies we should respect them because weknow them; if they are strangers to us we shouldshow them courtesies because they are women.

The ambitious strife of the citycauses exhaustive drains upon themental and physical resonrces of men,and it is singular that more do not seethe necessity for rest.But where can this be obtained? Thetime occupied in lying around in a ham­mock, or loafing on the veranda of somebusy hotel, does not refresh the mind orstrengthen the body. The proper relax­ation is to enter into the delights of pis­catorial pastime, hunting, boating, orsome other occupation that will brushaway the cobwebs from the musty cham­bers of the intellect.And then the busy housewife and thechildren need the change of air andscenery. Not all families can afford themore expensive outings that involve avisit to some far away resort, but theGoodrich Line, with its magnificentsteamships, offers all the opportunity ofa pleasant, healthfnl trip at very moder­ate expense. In fact, it is cheaper tomake a trip on this line to any of theresorts on Lake Michigan, than to re­main at home.

EXPRESS CO.It Thought•ISby some advertisers that advertising is valuable in proportionto the circulation of the paper. This is not strictly true. If itwere, only papers of two or three hundred thousand circulationcould exist. The Chicago daily which has the smallest circu­lation, namely, the Evening Post, charges more than twice asmuch per thousand for its advertising space as any otherpaper. That is because this paper is published for a selectbody of readers and not for everybody to read: So with tradepapers. Men pay ten times as much. for space in trade papersin proportion to circulation as they do for the large dailies,because the trade papers go to a greater per cent. of the peoplethey want to reach than the dailies do. So merchants whowould like to reach the 2,000 students and 200 professors of theUniversity can reach more of them through the UNIVERSITY,VEEKLY than they can for twenty times the same amount ofmoney put into the dailies. The advertisements in the WEEKLYare read. As advertisers are coming to understand the .knaclcof preparing the copy, they find that the readers will turn moreor less eagerly to their space to see what they have to- say. Ahundred dollars worth of space in the ,VEEKLY can be made todouble its value by a skillful wording of the advertisement,Unless a merchant is sure he knows how to write his ad vertise­ment he should turn the job over to some one who does know how.CHARLES H.
