CHARM
At last it has come. College curriculums (or should
it be curricula?) are crowded today with all sorts of sub
jects which never came within the ken of the founders of
the great medieval universities. If these reverend educa
tors could once more visit the glimpses of the moon, they
would certainly be startled at some of the things that are
being palmed off on the public in the name and under the
auspices of the higher learning. But to the latest addi
tion to the range of studies they would assuredly accord
a benign smile and their most fervent benediction, for the
new branch of knowledge covers that which the wjorld
has always needed most and has but seldom found, name
ly Charm. Now, charm has hitherto bee'n supposed to be
a personal attribute and therefore something intangible,
incommunicable, and incapable of being taught.. The Chi
cago Trade Union college, however, evidently thinks dif
ferently, for it has given Charm a prominent place on the
prospectus that went into effect with the opening of the
fall semester.
According to that document, charm is much more
than a mere matter of looking pleasant and eating with a
fork—a proposition, anyhow, which one would have thot
to be axiomatic.. There are to be lectures on charm in
dress, conversation, health, friendship, and literature,,
and even in budgeting an income and in interior decora
tion. All one can well say to the promoters of this new
branch of learning is that the wTorld is wide and the har
vest ripe for the garnering.
If a fan talks about next year, you know just about
where his home club stands.
A SCHOOL ALWAYS IN SESSION
There is one school that's always in session. “The
school of experience" is open 24 hours a day—365 days in
the year. This school is always crowded and many bitter
lessons are theirs who have not benefited by the records
of history and the experiences of others. Every one
knows this class.
You don’t matriculate in the school of experience,.
You just say: I’m leaving home forever."
HOW WE USE OUR MONEY
Europeans who accuse us of being dollar chasers
ought to remember that if we didn't engage in that sordid
pursuit we shouldn’t have so many dollars to lend or con
tribute to the various relief expeditions which are still
functioning in that desolated continent.
Man would like a church wedding, also, if everybody
looked at him instead of the bride.
SO THIS IS JUSTICE
Nathan F. Leopold, jr., and Richard Loeb, sentenced
to serve 99 years for kidnapping and to life terms in Joliet
prison for murder, have served two years, and now there
is talk of the possibility of their release at the end of nine
years and three months. This is quite an interesting sit
uation in view of the fact that there were few people who
were able to fathom the strange operations of the judi
cial system that enabled them to escape death.

MORE ON TUCKER
(Continued from Page One!
ectly after the retirement of Presi
dent Bartlett, he was sought by the
trustees. His duties at Andover Sem
inary, which was then in a legal crisis
caused him again to decline. A year
later the inability of the college to se
cure a president and the long delay
in filling the office so appealed to the
loyalty of Dr. Tucker that he yielded
to the urgent solicitations of the alum
ni and the trustees and consented to
accept the election.
Recognition in the form of honor
ary degrees and appointments to not
able lectureships was accorded to Dr.
Tucker on numerous occasions. He
was given the honary degree of D. D.
in 1875 by Dartmouth, and in 1904 by
the University of Vermont, and re
ceived the degree of LL.D from Wil
liams in 1893, from Yale in 1895, from
Wesleyan in 1903, and from Columbia
in 1906. In 1S94 Dr. Tucker deliver
ed the lectures of the Lowell Insti
tute in Boston, and from 1899 to 1901
was a University preacher of Harvard.
He was also a lecturer of Union The
\
ological Seminary in 1897 and Lyman'
Beecher lecturer of the Yale Divinity
school in 1S97 and 1S9S;
Dr. Tucker was a member of the
Phi Beta Kappa Society, a Fellow of
the American Academy of Arts and
Sciences, and a member of the New
Hampshire Historical Society, and the
Colonial Society of Massachusetts.
He was the author of many books:
“Liberty to Unity” in 1892, “The mak
ing and unmaking of the Preacher” in
1S99, “Public Mindedness” and “Per
sonal Power” in 1910, “The Function
of the Church in Modern Society,” in
1911, “The New Reservation of Time”
in 1916, and “My Generation,” an au
tobigraphy in 1919.
Dr. Tucker is* survived by his wife,
and three daughters, Mrs. F. H. Dixon,
of Princeton, N. J. Mrs. Nelson P.
Browp, of Everett, Mass., and Mrs.
Frank Cushwa, of Exeter, N. H.
