Captain Barry's Services.

In a recent letter to the Chicago
Daily News, Martin L. J. Griffin of
Philadelphia says:
Had H. Fl. Humphreys been more
observant of my language he would
not have written to The Daily News
taking issue with Mr.. Griffin" in
stating that Capt. John Barry was ap-
pointed to superintend the building of
the first frigate of the United States.
I say so again. I did not say he was

Barry: You are to consider yourself

and which is to mount forty guns.

that all parts of the business harmo-

So Barry superintended Humphreys

John Barry alone is worthy to be

Jones was a noble character,
brave, manly fellow, but never Who'll

authorities nor even justly treated by
them. Even he had to write: when
the America was taken from me | was

of Jones' fleet except one were French
and that one, the Alliance, was COM
manded by a Frenchman, Landais.
All the others were owned by the
French king, Louis xvi, who fitted
out the expedition.
So Jones would scarcely be known
at all but for the favor of the king of
France. And he did not compare in
worthiness to John Barry, who alone
is entitled to be called father of the
navy-the very words which were
first used and applied to him after
his death. He was a Catholic. He
was Irish In these you have the main
reasons why he has not been lauded

ties. He said, in part:
"a few years ago, student honor con-
noted primarily the students bearing
toward the faculty and toward the
property owners living near the col
lege. In both these respects there has
been d significant change for the bet
ter, college rebelliOns as we'll as con-
tiicts between gOwnsmen and towns
men being now comparatively rare.
Student honor has STILL however, its
inconsistencies, the two nerve centers
now being athletics and examinations.
The popularity of baseball and foot
ball has grown faster than the means
devised to control the abuses connected
with them. Methods Of safeguarding
intercollegiate athletics are yet to an
experimental stage The duty of the
hour is to educate public opinion in
and out of the college SO that it will
despise the doctrine of victory at any
price. This is the slogan that is most
responsible for deception both on ex-
aminations and in athletics. The fac
ulties of colleges and universities have
here a high duty and a rare oppor'
tunity.
''In many cases, however, the STU
dent is ignorant rather than guilty, the
case being one of perverted vision
| rather than of moral obliquity. Ath-
| letic tactics have not been adequately
| interpreted to students in simple terms
| of right and wrong.
1.-THE honor system Of conducting cX-
| aminations is better than the espion-
| age system The former trains the
| student for responsible citizenship and
from the testimony of those who have
tried both systems, gives occasion fol-
less cheating.
There is no reason for pessimism
| The responsibility for a high standard
