V THE COLLAPSE
By Walt Mason.
Perk Perkins walked with statelyA
stride about our little town; we al-
ways spoke with honest pride of him
and his renown. When he returned,
at divers times. from circles high
and grand. the churches all rang out
their chimes, we met him with a
band. Triumphai arches spanned
the street. flags hung o'er every
door,'and damsels. garlanded and
sweet, sang. "Home Again Once
More!" To welcome him in noble
style we used to plot and plan; and
this was surely worth the while of
any mortal man. But all this love
and high esteem were not enough
for Perk: he had a dark and hateful
dream of grafts be well might work.
He worked his grafts and gathered
chink. a huge. dishonest pile; and he
would give it all, I think. to see his
neighbors smile. The other day
marked his return to Punktown-in-
the-Glen; he saw no ruddy beacons
burn. no maids sang “Home Again."
A clammy silence held the town. as
cold as winter sleet. when quaking
Perkins journeyed down the old fa-
similar street. Men watched in sor-
row as he trod the highway's turns
and bends, the man who traded for

A farmer sat on his porch steps
one morning doing exercises with
his fingers in the hope of driving
the rheumatism out of his finger

passing at the time. and said to
himself:
"The poor old farmer is deaf and
dumb."
So, as ho was thirsty. he took out
some paper and a pencil. wrote:
"\Vill you sell me a quart of fresh
cool milk?" and hapdcd the note
over the fence. .
The farmer stopped his finger
exercise, read the nolc, got up with-
out a word and went into the house.
He was back in a minute with a full
pitcher.

and wrote "liow much?" on another
slip of paper.
For answer the farmer held up
five fingers three times. The cily

(Springfield Republican.)
Puritanism has been the target in
recent years of a critical anl icono-
clastic school of the younger writ-
ers and social reformers. They
have affected to deplore the influ-
ence of Purltanism and the Puritans
on American life. Dr. Eliot is a pro-
duct of New England Puritanism
at its best in humanistic culture reli-
gious toleration and progressive out-
look. Ills poise. tranquility, sim-
plicity, directness of speech and
penetrating thought reminds us of
the finest qualities of the Puritan
character. So long as he may be
pointed to as a splendid type of
Puritan manhood, in his flower.
Puritanism will need no defense
against those who traduce its spirit
and scorn its works.
Dr. Eliot is a great citizen. He
has served a good end in living so
far beyond the usual span of life.

Harvard might have been done by
others of his generation; for White

lines when he was beginning his

educator in the ordinary sense: he
