1t IS likely that people will esteem General
Eaton, who gave the Phi Beta Kappa Grafton
at Middlebufy This wear. guilty Of an ont
ragcous piece Of lavoIilism in providing for
President Hubert son chance to travel in
Europe al the expense of the Government.
General Eaton may perhaps be- imperyiOus To
such criticism, but We should think the pres
idcnt of an American educational institution
would take an interest in the cause of Amer
Ican education deep enough to prevent ms
connivance at anything so cXccllently Calcu-
lated to bring discrcdit upon it as such an
appointment. II We are not TO lool, 10 the
presidents Of our colleges gradually to bring
1t about that education shall more and more
seem a serious and practical matter to the
American public, the problem becomes at
once Unexpectedly complicated.
