WE GET 1T AGAIN

Editor Missoulian-In your Sundays
issue you take up the greater part of a
double column in discussing the rela-
tions between the town and the univer-
sity. In all that slaughter of words
you bring forward not one fact to sub
stantiate the many assertions you
make.
l wish to make a few statements of
fact which l challenge you or anybody
else to deny.
Missoula does not properly support
the university. Although the students
tax themselves more heavily than al
most any other college in the west,
they find it impossible to keep u of
debt, because of the woefully poor
support given by the citizens of Mis-
soula. About the only occasions when
Missoula turns out at all are such &C.
casions as a free concert, or some
function at commencement time.
You seem to think that a larger per-
centage of the citizens attend student
activities tina of the faculty. This is
simply preposterous. At the last
basketball game l was able to count
he's citizens in attendance upon the fin
gers of my W hands. Can you give
me the percentage that would be of a
population of owe $4,000? Yet of the
30 odd members of the faculty, l re-
member seeing at the game the fol-
lowing: Aber. Bolton. Biegler, Carey,
Gross, Phillips, Palmer. Plant. Ballan-
the. Reynolds. Whitlock, Rowe, Un-
derwood. Kemp, Plew, Mustaine. Rich
ter. Cunningham. Elrod, Buckhouse,
Patten and Feighner.
Now. the editor who in the face Of
these facts. will still persist In max
ing general statements unsupported by
any proof, simply reveals to the world
the fact that he has no regard for facts,
or does not fealize the significance of
facts.

ADJUSTED.

There Is general satisfaction over
the fact that the muddle over the dis
position Of the m%id-year graduates
from the eighth grade has been dis
posed of. 1t was good news that pro-
vision had been made for the accom-
mediation of the children who were
threatened with deprivation of school
facilities. When the matter was once
understood. there was no trouble in
getting it Strengthened out. There will
be no further trouble on this score.
The frank and prompt name in
which the question was met and
handled by the city school trustees is
pleasing to the friends of the schools.

ATHLETICS AND HEALTH,

The urgeo general of the navy has
completed the preparation of statistics
in which comparison is made of the
condition of about six hundred non
athletic midshipmen who were In the
naval academy between 1891 and 1911
and a like number of men who were In
athletics during the same period at the
academy. The latter men were N the
crew or the football eleven or repre-
scented the academy in some other
form Of athletics. On the fac of this
statement, the athletes would be ex-
They are men picked for physical ex-
ceilence; other things being equal 1t
would be stated off-hand that these
men should show greater longevity
n better strain-resisting qualities,
but the surgeon general does not find
this to be the case. 1t has been found
that from those diseases to which ath-
letics have a possible or probable re-
iation there has been but one death
among non-athletes as compared with
six for the athletic group. OF the men
siill in the service whose records show
abnormal physical conditions, 1877 are
non-athletes as against 1913 athletes.
Probably the most striking arraign-
ment of the i'll effects of strenuous
competitive athletics is to be found In

China and the Chinese are changing
so rapidly that only a battery of nov
ing picture machines working day and
night could catch the constant move
ment from old to new. The things
which were once regarded with super
stitious disdain, Them ridicule and
finally grudging interest, are being
taken yer bag and baggage by the
Chinese. The new things which the
foreigner observes on the streets of q
Chinese city are the surface evidences
Of the deeper changes which are go
ing on below. The government has
been turned upside down within a year,
The ancient system of ethics is hard
hit and all the modes and precedents
by which the people were guided for
centuries are being modified and
sometimes abolished altogether. Even
the old men testify in countless ways
that they hold the ancient good un-
couth. Not ever the women, guard
ians of conservatism the world over,
have succeeded in resisting the chance
to be different.
The transformation is not welcomed
by the tourist or the student from
abroad who appreciates the intrinsic
value of the archaic. In fact, the
pendulum is swinging too far the
other way. Many of the occidental
isms into which the Chinese are rush
ing headlong are not fitted for them,
Some Of the western customs or modes
which they are adopting so eagerly
are not half al sensible as those they
are replacing. Unless care is exercised
they may be the losers by the ex-
change in some instances.
Following the queue line in China is
a most interesting sport just now. 1t
Is like a game of hide-and-seek. Going
from province to province the traveller
notes that the time honored appen-
dage Is still in favor, or is yielding to
the altered order and hangs on by a
single hair, so to speak, or has sur
rendered Internationally to the prog
ress Of the age and is conspicuous by
it's absence. One Of the things Chi
nese which the globe trotter wants to
see on it's native heath Is the queue.
Great Is his disappointment upon
landing at Hongkong. Look as he may
he will not find a single queue. Every
man and boy has cropped 1t off and
the once shaved fore part of the head
Is covered with fuzz or bristles, ac-
cOrding to the hirsute vigor of the
Wearer. The same condition prevails
in Canton and all other parts of South
China.
1t cannot be said that cutting the
queue has added to the beauty of our
good-natured Chinese friends. An old
boy who now wags a two-inch relic on
the back of his head where once a
glossy rope suspended can have no
cause to thank the new style. Then
there are the bald -headed males. In
the days of the queue a Chinaman
always had some hair. even If was
mostly braid. On the other hand, the
young fellows welcome the modern
way. 1t enables them to display a
shock of luxuriant raven locks that
put a Hungarian orchestra leader out
Of the running.
Travelling north in search of the
shrinking cranial a%ppendage the tour
list may catch a glimpse of one in the
heart of the native city of Shanghai.
But it will be like looking for the
proverbial needle in a haystack, and
