OVER LACK OF CULTURE
NEW YORK. Jan. Professor
Munsterberg, of Harvard, who was In
New York today, has a poor opinion
of the average American man. "The
average business man." he said, "Is
too little interested In anything out
side his business. The women of the
country control culture and higher I
Ideals. The man takes too selfish an
attitude toward himself and his bus

should fill our lives with idealism. The
man who simply sees in his vocation
a means of getting the better of other
men. destroys his power to get sat
isfaction from anything."
