Newly Yclept JeremiahProf. Keeps to Custom

Professor Kurrelmeyer of thedepa rtm ent of Foreign lan-guages announces further com-plication in his middle name.Evidently the notoriety given tothe confusion concerning thetruth about his middle name,has influenced him to changehis methods of propaganda.

Yesterday as he was about toannounce in his customary man-ner that his middle name wasShylock the realization cameover him that it might not gainthe serious attention it had pre.viously held. Instead he an.nounced that from now on Jere.miah would be used in the placeof Shylock. Undoubtedly theeuphony of Jeremiah and Kur-relmeyer influenced the choicethis time.

SANDMEN

[NTEREST is the most desirable characteristic a professor canpossess, according to a vote cast at the Massachusetts Agri-

cultural College. Whether sulch a vote would have the sameresult at Technology, wae are not sure, but we rather feel thatthe student body agrees heartily -with the cowboys.

After all, if a professor can't keep his students awake, whatdoes he think is his value in giving us an education? Ofcourse there arse perhaps other factors in our' ennui-we mnayhave "studied" too hard the night before. But in many casesit seems to us that the prof essor is not using all his effort topresent the subject in a wvay which arouses thought on thepart off his listeners.

It isn't as if the pr of essors weree attempting to inculcateGreek in the minds of unwilling schoolboys, or to teach phy-sics and chemistry at a girls" school. If such wvere the case,we could appreciate an extreme difficulty in "putting the stuffacross." But ther e are so miany courses at the Institute whichare essentially inlteresting, courses which have to do with oureveryday- life, andc directly with our chosen wvork. These, p ar-ticularly. should be presented in such a wlay as to create a de-sire for continued effort by the student. And it is these sub-jects according to the restllts of the Student Inquiry, whichcause the students most trouble.

-Whethzer wve master the intricacies of the sub ject at hand isnot the rnajor feature in an education. Of courlse such knowvl-edge is nlecessary for the conltinulance of our study here. But,the important thing is the habit Nve acquire of delvting into aproblem to a greater extent than that required to cover theassigned material. If these habits are not stimulated by thosewho -uidle us ill our studies, ,ve think that they fail utterly intheir task.

These startling statements wvere made only seventy-fiveyears ago by Governor Berkely of Virginia, but in our day andage Mwe can laugh heartily at his narrow-mindedness. With ourlibelral clubs, "bull sessions", r adical magazines, and freespeech it hardly seems possible that expression of opinion wasso severely restricted.

At the time of his address, Governor Berkely probably feltthat there was plenty of liberality of thought. And well hemight ho,.ve, for but a short 200 years before then a JesuitFathers Inchofer remarked with vehemence that "The opin-ion of the earth's motion is of all heresies the most abomin-able, the most pernicious, the most scandalous; the immov-a-bility of the earth is thrice sacred."

It is unnecessary to enumerate the r emarkable developmentswhich have been achieved in spite of adverse criticism, criti-cism to an extent which w, e cannot realize. Even nrow peoplefind it hard to accept a near theory-they are "from Missouri"until everything is proved beyond a possible doubt. Evolutionis perhaps the best present day example of this doubt.

W~e haste acquired a remarkable heritage, and we are surelyf ortunate that views on new subjects are not looked at in thehorror with which our' foref athers regarded the "heresies."People weill always hate to agree that their own opinions arewarong. As well informed members of the new civilization, it isup to us to profit by the examples of previous times. We scoffat the narrow-mindednless of other days-will future genera-tions be laughing at the ideas we now cherish?
