AN OPEN DOOR TO LEARNING.
IlIR. Arh ss, secretary of the Local Centre, salrl, the other
dzty, “I should like to hear two of your lt-cttlres-“Literary
hleluorials of Pltilztrlclpllia " and “ Bcnjanlin l’ranklin."
The fornlerlectllre was tlle breaking of new ground for
tile illidicrlce, and the general interest ill the latter
lecture is deiiioirstrnterl by the fact that only four of the forty-
iive books upon Benjamin Franklin in the Free Library of
Pbilailelpliia were upon the shelves during the past tlcck. '
A very short time ago the bettcr element of n conlnlunlty
. . . t . , . W
was divided into (“'0 clas.<esAthe class that possessed lcnniil.
edge anil tbe class that possessed culture. Today the divid-
ing line is rapidly disappearing; knowledge is the road to
culture and cttltllre the road to deeper knowledge. Professors
generously giving their valuable time to extend the Clllrlctlr
lum beyond the walls of the university, seeking to popularize
all learning and all culture, recognizing the obstacles that
prevent the people from attending the universities, bring M
these universities to the people.
Formerly, also, a man's education was considered to end
with his college career; to-tiny it continues to the nionlent of
his death, and it is often only then that he considers he has
learned how to live. In the Middle Ages a scholar spctlt
inany yeitrs of his life in study at each celebrated seat of
learning. He learned law at Bologna, medicine at Palcrliio,
theology at Paris. To-daya inau‘s occupations forbid this
cloistered and sequestered piirsilit of knowledge; the titli-
versity professor, himself a factor in the intellectual, active
and social life of the cotnrnunity, comes forth from the uni-
versity walls, engaging in at democratic system of instruc-
tion. All people cantlot go to the university; the university
must, then, come to the people.
Never in the history of the world has thcl-e bccn so great a
A craving for knowledge as at the present day. Public tlisr
putatiou is the test of a uulfs ability. Formerly svllolars
disputed in public. Socrates was. perhaps, the most perfect
artist in publicdisptitatioli. In tllc class room we lave its
germ in the questions of the nwakeiiilig mind of the pupil ; ill 0
the social and literary halt’ hour after the University Exten-
sion lecture its further development, into which the whale
audience enters with profit, enjoyment and elitliuslnsnl.
ARE AMERICANS POLITE?
A DISCUSSION has been raging in the Lorlduti press on the
question, Does politeness pay? Correspondents point out Ir
that not only have the ancient courtly ways fallen itlto dis-
use, but that even the cciiiiiinricst courtesy of daily life is fast
becoming llnfasliionable. Perhaps the most novel argument
advanced was tltat the American nation, “notoriously the
most impolite in the worlll," has tutuiaged to furgetotlle rriiiii ,“‘ -
in business and Stateslllallollip, and has thereby delitonstratcd
that politeness does not pay. ii-hile Spain with its cniirtcniis
grztndness, and France, famous for politeness, are ilot such
noticeable examples of success among natiotls.
Apart from the discussion or the question, which hardly ',
deserves to be taken seriously, the pungent criticism of the
American nation furnishes food for reflection. Are we less
polite than ollr neighbors? asks Robert Webster Jones in
the October Housekeeper. Otlttvardly, yes. It rtiiist be ad-
mitted tllat most of us have been too busy settling a new
country and striving for bare existence to put the utmost der
gree of polish of which we are capable upon our manners.
In England the conductorof the cniriihiis says “Thank you"
as he receives the fare. In France tliegeridarineron the street
corner is the personilication of courtesy as he answers the
stranger's inquiries. No such examples of politeness are
furnished by public servants in this country. In the native
courtesy that springs from the heart we yield to none, blit
our manners sometimes afiord room for criticism.
But we are learning fast, and really, “most impolite in the
world" is putting it a little too strongly. Granting that we
are already “first in business and slatesniansliip," may we
not hope some day to attain equal precedence in courtesy and
com: to be known as the “most polite nation in the world”?
ADVERTISING AN ART.
Advertising is called by shine an art. If it be an iiri it is
the art of telling a story simply snii tollvilicillgly.
Nobody knows more ahniil the strong qualities of an 5
establishment than the proprietor who oversees it. Other
things being equal, nobody should be able to write more con- :1
vincingly of the articles he oilers for sale.
a
In a store where the employer sells goods side by side with
his clerks it is rare that the employer will not be the best
salesman.
The reason is simple. He knows the goods from A to 7..
He probably has purchased them. He knows his liinis, His
arguments carry weight because they are convincing.
The same arguments presented in the salne way, with the
same enthusiastic spirit, the same knowledge of detail, would
attract new customers if presented through the advertising
columns of this pa r. '
If you have not tried it, why not begin.
