“BE A MIXER.’
Advice From Inivemity of Chloniru
Kdueutoi* to IUm StudentH.
Be a “good fellow.” Learn to "mix.”
Acijuire tin* social graces. Do not
overlook the pleasant things of life,
which mean fortune and happiness.
And do not make books your only
friends, for they are small comfort out
in the cold, hard world.
This advice was recently given to
University of Chicago students as the
formula for success by Professor
Frank J. Miller, the Midway dean o:
aflilintions. says the Chicago Uecord-
Hcrald. The recent utterances of
•iolm L>. Rockefeller, who lias express
ed himself as opposed to being a
"good fellow,” were completely ignor
ed by the professor. His address was
entitled "Some Students’ Musts.”
"It is not good for man to be alone,”
said Professor Miller. "Therefore cul
tivate the social graces. By this I do
not mean going to balls seven tiinps a
week or even six. Dances are all right-
hut there are other places than ball
rooms to learn the social graces. Learn
to gain access to your fellow men. It
is wort!) a fortune to he a "good mix
er.” It means a life full of happiness.
The really successful man gets around
among men and does not hold himself
apart." v
A report received by the Canadian
government from Alexander McLean,
Canadian commissioner at Yokohama,
says that the recent agitation of the
life insurance matters In New York
has seriously affected the Japanese
business of both American and Cana
dian companies.
