Several years ago, there appeared a series of papers that purported to be the confessions of a successful man who under no delusion as to the essential quality of his attainments. The papers are not before me as I write, and I must trust to memory and a few penciled noted of the mind of the average college graduate. He stated that he came from a family that prided itself on its culture and intellectuality and that had always been a family of professional folk. His grandfather was a clergyman; among his uncles were a lawyer, a physician, and a professor, his sisters married a professional man. He received a fairly good primary and secondary education and graduated from his university with honors. He stated of a distinctly literary turn of mind and during his four yearat college imbibed some slight information concerning the English classics as well as modern history and metaphysics, so that he could talk quite glibly about Chaucer, Beaumont and Fletcher, Thomas Love Peacock and Ann Radcliffe, and speak with apparent familiarity about Kant and Schopenhauer.
