I THE TEST OF KNOWLEDGE. High marks in examinations depend upon a trained memory and a power of acquiring irrevelent information, says Ideas." Culture, on the contrary, is a sympathetic assimilation of the best in the realm of thought and achievement. Culture is a slower process and a deeper, and its re- ward strikes further in. Assimilation of the best that has been thought and accom- plished affects not merely the brain, but the character-the whole spirit of a man. Cul- ture implies a soil plowed and fertilised, where whatever seed falls has the better chance for growth. Information even in vast quantities, so long as it remains mere information, used for purposes of passing examinations, need not affect the manners nor the morals of a man both may re- main hopelessly lax in an encyclopedian mine of facts. But culture affects prim- arily the manners and the morals. A cul- tured gentleman has external methods of getting on with his kind he has the true sense of relationship, the feeling that all he can learn to feel or to be is not for himself, but for service he knows himself in a net- work of human inter-relations. In the end the test of knowledge is not examina- tion marks it is living. §o§ Wraa ropes very high tensila strength, whiclL are ordinarily called "plough steel ropes," are made ef a high gradii of crucible steel, which, when put in the form of wire, will bear a strain of from 100 to 150 tons per square inch.
