Young America Armored
in He Sophietication
Left to fend for himself, as he usuiil
ly makes sure that he is left, the aver
age young American is surprising!}
precocious In getting his sea legs. It
he has had free rein through his last
years In high school he has an armor
of hardness and sophistication by the
time he reaches college which his fa
ther probably did not possess at thirty
and his mother mny not yet possess.
If he doesn’t have it at the begin
ning of his freshmen year, he will by
the end of It People who still talk
sentimentally of “the tender years,’'
meaning the late teens, should read
from slxt^ to one hundred themes a
week for five years as I have done,
and should hold three hours a week of
conference over - anything from the
placing of commas to the expediency
of booxe parties.
At the end of a regimen like that
one feels that he knows what Is In the
heads and hearts of young people. And
except for the rare young person who
has come up In a home where the
rlght-and-wrong standard was still
rigorously applied, and whose case.
Just because he la u<A armored like
his fellows, la very sad Indeed, I do
not worry greatly about the mere
wastefulness of the standard which
finds Its sanction In experierire.
I am still awed by the surenesa and
the level-eyed poise with which sor
ority pledgers ateer In waters their
Ibothera never dreamed of trying to
navigate. They tnow^Tbeee rouged
and murceled seventeen-year-olds, (hut

Trade Dollars
The trade dollar of 420 grain* tray
was authorized by the act of February
12. 1878. It was Intended for circu
lation in oriental countries aa a sub
stitute for the Mexican dollar, which
it slightly exceeded in weight, bht hy
the. terms of the authorizing act It
was made legal tender In the United
States In sums not exceeding $5. This
legal tender quality was withdrawn by
the Joint resolution approved July 22,
. 1876, and the coinage was limited to
such amount aa the secretary of the
treasury should consider sufficient to
meet the export demand. The act of
February 19, 1887. proiifded for the
retirement of trade dollars or sub
sidiary silver. For six months after
the passapj of the act they could be
exchanged at the treasury or any sub
treasury, dollar for dollar, for stand
ard silver dollars or subsidiary coin.
The total number ^f trade dollars
coined was 35,965.924.

Persons borrowing books from a
new type of circulating library being

a review of each volume taken out
before it can be returned. These re
views ere arranged and analysed and

this system It will be possible to de
termine the subjects most In demand
by the reading public or by special
groups. The director of one of these
libraries wllj. be able, ten years from
