Pessimistic View of Student Life Given by Speaker
Walter Brown Formulates Three Rules to Follow to Guarantee Happiness
"The Romance of Being a Student," is only the romance of living, "according to the words of the writer and lecturer who spoke at concession this morning. In spite of his misnaming and witty address he has not forgotten that student life and of life in general.
Mr. Brown gave the inevitable formula for those who would find the "bloom of life."
"We go racing nervously about seeking for something we believe to exist but have not found." Mr. Brown said, "We are supposed to be mountainous to be bitten by flies, and are in the pursuit of romance at the rate of 55 miles an hour, when in reality happiness and a productive life are found by a much simpler process."
"We must be able to see, to use our eyes, not in any mystical metaphysical senses, but in a very real physical way. No person of any note in the world," said Mr. Brown, "who has had keen powers of observation."
Ralph Waldo Emerson, if he should visit the K. U. campus, would go back out and write an essay on the works of Mr. Brown. Pastur, with his scientific observations, was ranked by Doctor Brown as one of the greatest men of
Study Methods at Fault
The second part of the formula consists in the ability "to look at life and remember that it has an end as an end or a beginning," and to regard it with confidence. That is why the word thing according to Doctor Brown, that life does have an end for if all lived to be as old as Methuselah that he did not live in the possibility of such longevity should exist, a year and a half was allotted for every given by Mr. Brown. Methods of student study came in various forms: a high school age student, according to Mr. 4rown, both man and woman, studies after the accepted "College Hunger" method and, on the other hand, defolding the professor in the back of his mind. This lack of concentration to the work in hand is an explanation of failures, Mr. Brown believes,
If a freshman, the student can concentrate for 15 minutes, increase the amount to 30 minutes when he is a sophomore and to two hours when he is a junior. I feel that he has become one of the great people of the world, for there are very few persons who can concentrate for so long a time." Mr. Brown
The senior who can study with all of his mind on the subject for two hours is entitled to walk out under the guardian and reorganize the United States Steel Corporation or in some way elect a governor to be appointed who will stick. He must be to Mr. Brown.
To the faculties of "seeing" and "concentration," Doctor Brown would add the saving up of things we would need to find. So we are to find the clusive "bloom."
Philanthropists Are Watched
"Do you know what you will be doing in 30 years?" Mr. Brown said, sitting with others sitting around with some old man or old woman arguing which one of you wanted to marry the other."
To avoid such an appalling condition, Mr. Brown would have us begin a work on the philanthropist's active work which we have accomplished. Philanthropic work, accorded more importance than the philanthropist will be suspected of desiring to become candidate for an office. However, after receiving an offer to believe the rewards will be ample. The meaning of the world for those who receive the "bloom" will begin to clarify without losing any of the romance of its mysteriousness, if the three steps are
