thrilled with the thought that vast

will touch the pen with new fire to
portray the varied life that teens in
a land where the rich earth responds to
the strong touch of abundant heat and
moisture. What lavish wealth Of vege-

what tropical gardens possible! This
will broaden and intensity the impulse
of the farm; not alone to the Ameri-
can farmer, but, in a greater degree,
to those native millions who people the
Philippines. These great island homes,
under the Aegis of the American flag,
and the purpose of American institu-
tions will be lifted to a permanent
civilization by a closer contact and ad-
justment with the earth and her or
derly products. How quickly the seats
of learning respond to the new order Of
acquisition! The curriculum is to be
enlarged and be made to include a
scholarship capable to meet the new
conditions. It's horticultural studies
must now include knowledge Of trade
and commerce and language. The Con-
sular service becomes an adjunct to the
Department of Agriculture. The new
century will see capable young Amer
leans as Government aids in far away
countries studying the possibilities Of
