THE PROBLEM OF POVERTY.

Why does poverty exist today!
Poverty exists because nature is
niggardly and because man, even
if he is not lazy and thriftless
like the savage. is ignorant of
the mysteries of Nature and I'M
skillful in coping with her. Now,
if we pulveriZe the institutions
of existing society and set up a
socialistic state and transfer to
il by confiscation all capital at
present in the hands of private
owners. what gain would come
to the poor as result of this
revolutionary change? Capital
does not admit of boarding and
storing and safe Keeping. VIII

accumulate capital with the same
initiative. enterprise and practi-
cal genius as are displayed in our

running" which is the term given by
the mldshipmen to the mlder forms OF
that delectable pastime. Captain Gibbons
has little liberation. Congress has FORBID
den all forms of hazing. and that alone, In
the eyes Of the superintendent, makes IL
his duty TO stamp out the practice And
II is safe TO say that he has done more TO
achieve this end than any OF his prede-
Cessors He has visited swift and sum-
mary Justice on those found guilty OF dis
obeying the law and the regulations In
this respect. and yet there are probably
few men who have resorted TO severity
with greater reluctance and with more
heartburning, for underneath n dignifi ed
and even stern exterior Captain Gibbons
carries a heart in proportion to his stature.
AS said. he takes his duties seriously.
on him rests the responsibility for the
welfare OF the entire brigade Of more than
80 young men and the necessity OF bear
ing in mind that consideration for the IN
dIvidual must never be allowed TO become
a menace to the general good And wholly
apart from the strict Congressional prohi-
bItion Of all forms OF hazing. he realizes
that even the most innocent form or run
ming when administered by thoughtless
bows may serve seriously to retard the

time that should be devoted to work, even

worry and distraction. Realizing these
things, the present superintendent has

ures, such as tactics. law and construc-
tive and designing technical work, have
been either eliminated or abridged, with a
alton.
The postgraduate course will in the
main, be preceded by three years of sea
service and qualification for the grade OF
junior lieutenant For the present the
course will include ordnance and gun
merry, marine engineering. electrical en-
cheering. autobiography naval con-
struction and civil engineering.
An immediate occasion OF some. at
least, of the changes in the curriculum,
etc, was the enactment Of Congress pro-
viding that midshipmen should be COM
missioned as ensigns on the completion
of their four years course at the Naval
Academy, instead OF being carried as
passed midshipmen for two years before
attaining the grade Of ensign. The sub
stitution OF summer cruises with the fleet
in lieu of summers spent aboard a school
ship for the upper classes was, doubtless
the immediate result of this enactment
II the officers OF the fleet will cooperate
with the spirit of the Navy Department
and the aims of Superintendent Gibbons
these practical cruises will prove doubt
less Of the utmost value to the midship-
men.
Captain Gibbons is convinced that no
influence is so beneficial TO the young
men at the academy as association with
officers Of the navy. from whom. he be-

lieves, they will, even unconsciously. alb
sorb much of that spirit which has made
the navy always the pride Of Americans
and the admiration OF the military world.
II is to that end that he would. where
1t can be done without detrlment to the
academy, substitute officers for civilian
teachers. In some degree this is getting
back TO the custom which prevailed when
he was himself a midshipman, or, rather,
a cadet as they were termed in those
days, the cadet becoming a midshipman
only after graduating from the academy.
The brigade was far smaller than II is
to-day. Officers were more numerous In
proportion to the demands OF the neet
than they have been for a considerable
time. and small classes with numerous
officer instructors were the rule. To the
good influence OF the instructors with
whom he came in contact Captain Glib
bons is ever ready to testify. This does
not mean OF course, that the superin-
tendent contemplates substituting officers
for the instructors in foreign language
termed 'dago" by the midshipmen-or
that he would seriously impair the eff
cheney of the instructing body To carry
out his theory, but he does believe that
the more the midshipmen can be brought
in contact with naval officers the more
thoroughly they will be fitted for their
something of pedagogic proficiency TO gain
such association.

SIMPLIFYING THE CURRICULUM.

Second chronologically, but not in i'm
portance. are the changes which Captain
Gibbons is effecting in the curriculum OF
the academy The completely of modern
naval warfare as compared with that of
a former generation. the intricacies Of the
modern battleship as compared with the
sailing frigate of the early part of the
last century, must be apparent to the
veriest tyro And with this development
came increases in and complication of
the academy curriculum. In the effort
to turn out midshpmen proficient in all
the phases Of duty they would be called
upon to perform there has been an ever
increasing danger that. like the proverbial
jack Of all trades, they would be mas
ter of none. The importance OF q change
of system was obvious to those who gave
the subject sufficient serious considera-
ton. The first step toward correcting
the evil was necessarily in the direction
Ct specialization. There were no super
fiuous subjects, therefore provision must
be made for special training in the sub
jects eliminated after graduation. Some
progress along that line had already been
made, bu. now a postgraduate school has
been established at Annapolis and a sys-
tematic and varied course provided Cap
tain Gibbons has been made head Of the
more advanced school, as he is Of the
Naval Academy.
The entrance examination has been
somewhat simplifed by the elimination Of
worlds history and in some minor de-
tails The first years work has been
made more elementary and is better de-
signed TO afford a substantial basis for
subsequent education. The practice of
sending the first and second classes to sea
with the feet instead OF on school ships
during the summer months, in order that
they may have an opportunity TO apply
their knowledge and to supplement theo-
retical with practical experience, has been
adopted. and the more advanced. feat
