He invariably refuses to talk polities, although they occupied the biggest part of his active life What he write? He is engaged now. and has been for several years. on a volume or se- ries of volumes which are understood to resume his outlook on life and its problems. But they are not to be pub- lished until after his death and the “Tiger” has not revealed anything of their content. Therefore it is only by a reference te his published books that one can obtain any adequate idea of the principles on which he has guided his career. Sometimes Clemenceau seems to be Aa socialist, as in tact he proclaimed himself at the opening of his parlia- mentary career. This, in another ar- ticle of “La Melee Sociale,” he de: clares that “the end toward which na- ture seems to be striving is socialism, which will fix by law respect for all, the rule of justice by association.” But in the next moment he proclaims that everything depends on the indi- vidual, that the individuas must be brought to such a point tha' law will be unnecessary, which may certainly be taken as an expression of phil osophie anarchy. does After all, skepticism is his dominant trait, in bis daily life us in his writ- ° ° : ® ing every 1 1g t O 1 e instructor.

He is merely nonreligious. Even in the worst days of the fight between the radical ex- tremists and the radical freethinkers and the church authorities, when the separation of church and state was the big problem in France, Clemenceau repeated time and again that there must be no attempt to suppress re- ligion or to persecute anybody for re- ligious beliefs. “Governments,” he declared in the chamber, “can do nothing against be- liefs. I have been asked if we want to destroy religion. Well, messieurs les deputes, here is my reply: We do not want to, we could not if we would, destroy a single belief in a single con- science.” In one of his hooks, “Le Grand Pan,” he takes up the problem of the inspiring principle of mankind. He finds it in action. “Pan commands us,” he said. “We must act. Action is the principle, ac- tion is the means, action is the goal.” Clemenceau has followed that prin- ciple all his life. In spite of his years he has his half hour of physical train- day.

T= summer following ny junior year in college | developed phys- ical strength and a very limited bal- ance in the bank by doing manual labor in the farming community in which I had grown up. We were thrashing for Cornelius O'Donnell down in the Dutch flats. Cornelius was a good farmer and a keen judge of human nature. He had known me almost from infancy, and I am afraid thought it a waste of dme and money for me to put so many years in at college. “How long you been in college?” he asked me, “Three years,” 1 said. “I've got a year more,” He looked at me quizzically. “I suppose there won’t he anything you don’t know or can’t do by the end 0’ that time,” he remarked. Well, a good deal more than I then realized, I have since discovered, edu- cation has its limitations, There are a great many things that even a do~- tor of philosophy doesn’t know and an infinite number of other things which he can’t do. When 1 was a graduate student at Harvard university a good many years ago, I became acquainted with a wan of forty-five or so who was doing his level best to acquire a doe- tor's degree. He was married; he had a family of four or five children; and, never having earned even a comfort- able salary as a teacher, he was poor. It meant sacrifice for him and for every member of his family for him to go to college. He had something of the opinion of Cornelius without having the old man’s shrewdness and common sense. He believed that when the degree was conferred and the erimson-lined hood was slipped over his head he would know everything and be able to do anything he set himself to. He was quite mistakes. He would never even be able to do well the one thing for which he was preparing. He had no skill in presenting facts, no mag- netism in holding attention, no in- sight into the way the human ming works or the human heart is stirred. No matter how many degrees he might obtain he would always be cold and dull and ineffective, Education could not recreate him. The amount that any one man can know or do is relatively small.
