ENGLISH VIEW OF CANAL.
Paper Says It Is Great Britain S
Duty to Protect World.

LONDON. July Recommending on the
protest of the British government in
connection with the regulation of the
Panama canal. the. Pail Mall Gazette to-
day contends that Great Britain is in the
responsible position of having to uphold
not only her own rights. but those Of the
whole world, which depend on the Hay
Pauncefote treaty.
At the same time the Pail Mall Gazette
recognizes the entire reasonableness of
the American contention that, having sup
piled the capital and skill to build the
canal, Americans have the right to every
consideration not conflicting with the
treaty obligations of the United States.

MENACE TO THE FARMERS
Lack of Educational Funds Traced
to Farm Renting.
CRITICISM OF COLLEGE LIFE
Students Declared to Be "Extrava-
CANT Idlers"-Salt Lake City
Next Meeting Place.

CHICAGO. July 12.-Rural education
as now conducted was described as
behind the times" and threatening the
prosperity of the farmers by speakers
before the National Educational Asso-
citation today
The lack of funds for country schools
was said to be due to the system Of
renting farms. Warren H. Wilson,
director of missions. New York city,
declared that in Illinois SO per cent
and in Iowa 38 per cent Of the farms
were rented, and because the farmers
paid rent to city people the lands were
going up In price, while their pro-
ductiveness was diminishing. Thirty
four counties in Ohio. he asserted. are
less productive now than they were
during the civil war.
In a country whose soil is new we
are beginning to import from countries
where the soil has been titled a thou
sand years" said Mr.. Wilson.
Under the One-year lease system, he
said, farmers could not be expected to
spend money either for improving the
land or for schoolhouses. They would
not build schoolhouses in a community
where they were only temporarily To-
Gated, he said. He quoted figures pur-
porting to show that the profits of
farmers in Iowa depended on child la

Students Extravagant Idlers.
In an arraisnment of American univer-
sity life delivered last night before the
higher education department of the asso-
citation. Chancellor Samuel Avery of the
University OF Nebraska declared that in
many cases students are extravagant
idlers, who, being able to afford it. spend
their winters in fashionable universities,
which they regard as attractive winter re-
sorts. under the guise of institutions of
learning and culture
"A student nowadays must be very
brilliant or very troublesome before the
college president becomes acquainted with
him at all. said Chancellor Avery. The
enormous influx of students has changed
the character of the student body. Every
college president knows, and II he Is frank
will admit. that there is some truth in
the structures of the late r. 7. Crane
The story widely circulated and COM
monty believed that in the destruction by
fire of a fraternity house at one institu-
ton the students lost their lives because
they were too Intoxicated to escape and
the other story of the drunken student
who blundered into the wrong apartment
and was shot as a burglar are sufficiently
well known to make every college presi-
dent wonder il those things are not pres
ent in his own institution
