ing from students In training for teach-

“as a child he was precocious In po-

group of ladies about ancestral pride
“Ancestral pride is an excellent
thing.” he sald, “but there sre better
things. We have long felt in Great
Britain that there are better things. 1

pressed last season by a duchess. Hers
is a great family, but she was talking
to a young marquis whose family Is
incomparably greater. He is a rather
worthless, lazy, dissipated young mar
quis, and he boasted to the duchess
about his people.
“1 am very proud of my ancestry,
you know,’ he ended.
“Yeos,' sald the duchess, ‘and you
have cause to be, but I wonder how
your ancestry would feel about you?
