Snobbery at the Naval Academy

by the navy department. Miss Beers
was employed as a companion to the
wife of Lieut. Commander William T.
rarrant, VINO Is engineer Officer OF
the battleship Michigan of the Allan
tic feet. She was invited to one of
the naval academy hops several weeks
ago by a midshipman whose name has
not been disclosed by the department.
She attended the dance and shortly
afterward left Annapolis for her home
in New Haven At the time of her
departure she knew nothing of the in
cident in which she figured
One of the officers on duty at An
napolis suggested to the midshipmen,
on the supposition that Miss Beers
was domestic, that she should not
have been invited by the midshipman
to the hon.
The midshipman, according to the
report received at the department, re.
piled that he disagreed personally
with the view Of his superiors at the
academy. There was, however, moth.
ing that he could do under the cir
cumstances The inquiry developed
that Captain Bowyer was responsible
for the suggestion that Miss Beers
was not desirable guest at academy
social events.

trade one little bill for another little
bill, and incidentally to break a party

VIVA SHINGTON. = Some person,

well of truth, has said that no man
is hero to his valet The philosophy
OF the observation might have been
greatly strengthening IL the sage had
thought to add that no United States
senator is any great shakes to SEN
ate page.
There is a popular impression that
the senate pages are studious youth
with bullying foreheads, learned in the
Constitution and deep in the mysteries
OF senate precedents.
These wrong impressions about the
high constitutional atmosphere that
surrounds senate page come nat
urally enough from the superficial OBJ
servation of visitors in the gallery.
Looking down from there it is easy to
suppose that when senator claps his
hands and a page hurries noiselessly
to his side and inelines respectful
ear, that the fortunate youth is re-
ceiying information of the highest i'm
port. Doubtless he will write it down

to Prof. Henry A. Beers of Yale uni

Annapolis in which an attempt was
made to exclude Miss Beers from So

The incident aroused a big stir in

up in the house, charging that snob-

the matter and directed Secretary

Fly Models to Assist Aviators

fourth paper in series dealing with
the Investigations on the flying organs
of various insects and birds. These
Investigations. which were fostered
by Secretary Langley, now deceased
with the hope that they would yield
information useful TO engineers and
others interested in the problem of
aviation, have been carried out under
the direction of Professor Won Len
denfield of Prague university for ten
years.
Professor Won Lendenfleld believes
that of all forms of insects, and in

tern for flying machine, and that a

cording to the pattern and experiment.

All the grasping and the greed

All the grasping and the greed
of this world come from not re-
garding our fellows as our neigh
bors. One doesn't trample his
neighbors. He works with them
to Il common end. We must
come to look on ali the world as
our neighbors. We must do
away with the idea of classes.
There isn't any justification for
class lines in America. They are
unjust, unwholesome. upright
eous and American. Why
should we have class lines here
in this country and one man de-
spise another just because he
has been lucky enough to make
little more money? A man has
some right to be proud of what
he makes with his own hands
and his own brains, but he
hasn't any business putting on
airs over what he is merely try
ing to spend.-Jacob A. Riis.

is about as reasonable to expect good

twice during the year as it would be
to expect good corn crop by cult
vating it only once and trusting to
luck for the rest.
The sound Of raindrops falling on
the roof is fine music all right when
the ground is dry, but it takes the
kind of music that sooths the savage
breast to make man feel at ease
when it keeps drizzling away enough
to keep the teams out of the fields
when the weeds are getting ahead Of
the corn.
The grain drill came into general
use in this vicinity this spring and
gave good satisfaction, but from the
appearance of some of the fields there
are few who expected it to do the
work intendended for the disk and
the drag. These, no doubt, are dis
appointed.
There will be brisk demand for
fence posts as long as so many of us
keep setting posts that are not we'll

at least three times as long.
