for Her.

Mrs. Matthew T. Scott, retiring presi-
dent general of the Daughters of the
American Revolution, will be elected hon.
orary president general at the annual
congress which opens in Memorial Con-
tinental Hall here April IA, if a movement
now under way among her friends is
carried out. The position of honorary

sidered one Of great distinction.
Friends of Mrs. Scott declare that her
work as president general for the last
four years entities her to all the honor
that can be paid her. They say that they
will be greatly surprised if there is any
opposition to her election even among
her most determined opponents. They
expect her to be chosen by a unanimous
vote.
Delegates and visitors to the d. A. r.
Congress have already begun to arrive in
the city, although the opening session is
over a week off. There is to be meet
ing of the Continental Hall committee
next Friday night. and a meeting of the
national board of management next Sat
urday morning. At both of these meet
ings preparations for the congress will
be taken up.

One Of the principal subjects to be
taken up by the congress will be the
question of the erection Of an additional
building. A bill providing for the pur-
chase Of a site for the addition is now
pending in Congress. Mrs. Scott has
given her Endorsement to this bill, and
the national board of management at a
recent meeting upheld her course. Some
of the followers of Mrs. William Cum
MINIS Story object to it. however.
The completed program for the con-
gress will not be ready for distribution
until next Friday, but practically all ar
rangements have already been made.

EDUCATIONAL STANDARDS
HELD TO BE IMPERATIVE
DR.. George Edwin MacLean Urges
Necessity for Complete Reorgani-
cation of System.

Our age makes standards imperative -
declares DIR. George Edwin MacLean, for
merly president Of the State University
Of Iowa, in bulletin just issued by the
United States bureau Of education. DR..
MacLean points out how the same need
that has led to standard gauge railway
tracks and common monetary basis ap-
plies to institutions Of higher learning.
In the case of the universities, "the
worldwide interchange of thought, ex-
change of scholars and migration of
students have inevitably created the de-
mand for recognized standards.
Portrays Former Standards.
DR.. MacLean attempts to portray the
as they have been and as they are. After
tracing the significant changes that have
taken place in American college standards
from colonial days down through the bat
tie over the elective system. he discusses
the present standards Of collegiate depart
ments in the United States: standards Of
theological schools medical schools. law
schools. schools of engineering. dental
schools, schools of pharmacy, schools of
fine arts and music. and universities in
general.
In his summary DIR. MacLean suggests
standards. which make the American
graduate twenty-six or twenty-seven years
old in beginning the practice OF his pro-
fession. form an important point in the
demand for a complete reorganization OF
the educational system.
