With the arrival of the commencement
period there come the annual protests from
various quarters over the tendency toward
adopting a profession already overcrowdod,
the line of argument being based on The
point from which the situation Is oonsid-
cred Among those TO sound a note of dis
tress is the Engineering News, which sus-
gests that If the movement In the direction
of strictly technical instruction continues
there ls a likelihood that the profession of
engineering viii be seriously overerowded.
The same sentiments are shared by the
legal profession, the medical profession and
others whose members view with alarm the
army of graduates turned out annually, and
who marvel that the asplrants for profes-
slonal honors did not pursue some of .he
other branches which to them appear to
furnish greater opportunities.
Within the last few years there has been
an undeniabe tendency toward adopting
one of a half dozen professions. Doctors
and dentists lawyers and engineers, have
been turned out in wholesale numbers, and
their number increases in greater proper
uons annually. That this tendency should
be viewed with alarm is not surprising, al
though much of the fear appears TO be un-
warranted The opportunities today may
not be as great as formerly, but they are
stu there for the man possessed OF ability
and willing TO labor for success. competi-
tion is the strongest spur 70 the ambitious
individual The one who can perform his
allotted duties more satisfactorily than can
his fellow man finds his services In greater
demand. with the employment OF his fac
ulties comes a development OF talents that

for existence. OF all the men who leave
educational institutions each year only a
certain percentage make success In life,
but Il would be incorrect to attribute all
the failures 20 the overcrOwding Of the pro-
fession adopted. The man determined to
win gains recognition; the one contented to
drift along remains In obscurity and views
with alarm the advent OF more ambitious
persons into the field which be has neg

BRUTALLY MURDERED
Body Of Unknown Woman Found in
School House.

Toledo, o., July 23.-The body of a
well dressed woman in such state
of decomposition that her identity
could not be ascertained was discov-
cred in a standing posture in a closet
of country schoolhouse near Carey,
Ohio, late this afternoon by farm
er residing close by. That the wo-
man was brutally murdered is ev:-
dsnced by the fact of the discovery
of huge coal chisel spattered with
blood in clump of bushes near the
school. An examination of the body
disclosed fractured skull but further
marks of violence could not be dis.
cerned. The murder of this woman,
who appears to have been about 30
years old, is shrouded in mystery.
Coroner Stutz of Wyandotte county is
investigating the case, but is at
loss to obtain single clue.

entertainment and repaired immediate

short drive by a portion of the party
around the city, they remained until

said:
THE japanese are naturally very
much gratified because in the present
war they have secured the safety and
security of their own country and have
checked, perhaps for all time, the radi-
cal advance of Russia. Our future
seems secure, but, of course, what that
future will be remains to be seen. Our
financial and industrial conditions will
improve as never. before, and we all

of unalloyed optimism and hopefulness.
THE western world has nothing
whatever to fear from the so-called
yellow peril, which is a mere figment
of the imagination of some interested
Europeans. The entire world, as we'll as
Japan and China, will be benefited by
this war. We could never have OBJ
tained victory over Russia had not our
quarrel been just; had not our entire
public service been wholly free from
corruption, and had not the mode of
living of the japanese people been Of
such simple nature as to equip SOL
diers for hardship and duty"

IT IS WICKED
For Anyone to Enter an Alliance sa.
loon on Sunday.

Alliance, O., July 23.-Today the
new saloon ordinance went into effect
in Alliance and the local officers were
on the lookout for violators. The new
ordinance makes it unlawful for any
one to enter saloon on Sunday except
the proprietor. 1t further makes scrub
bling out on Sunday illegal. Hereto
fore the local officers have been handi
capped in enforcing the Sunday closing
laws because men would enter the sa-
looms and when an officer appeared
the doors would be locked, and by the
time entrance could be effected the
men had gone. Now when anyone en-
ters a saloon on Sunday he will be ar
rested. whatever his business in the
place may be. 1t is expected that the
new ordinance will be sufficient to cope
with the evil. h
