 To eliminate this item of drudgery is easy, according to President Cook. All that is necessary is for the far ner to realize that the farm is also the heir to modern invention: An isolated farm can be supplied with system of waterworks for an outlay of about $25O; pump, $25; gasoline engine, $40; tank, $2o; bathtub, $29; commode, SEQ; kitchen sink, $4; ba- sin, $4; 500 feet of pipe. $40; valves and installation, $75. These figures are for first-class porcelain-lined fix lures; cheaper fixtures can be had. Such a system, if intelligently and conpactiy planned will not only sup splv all of the household needs, but will supply practically al the farm needs besides.

EDITORIAL NOTES

Uncle Sam's new ambassador to the court of Yoshihito, George Wilkins Guthrie of Pittsburgh, win celebrate his sixty-1fth birthday today in Ja- pan. Owing to the frequent ernbrog- 1ios between the American republic and the Oriental monarchy, the Jap anese post is considered one of the
 most difficult and important in the United States diplomatic service. For a time, it is understood, President Will son considered the appointment of Charles R. Crane, of Chicago, who was appointed minister to China in 1909, but resigned before assuming his official duties as a result of alleged undipIo- matic utterances. Eventually the choice fell upon MT. Guthrie as the man best fitted to look after United States interests in Tokio.
 MT. Guthrie was born in Pittsburgh on Sept. 5, 1848, and was educated at the Western University of Pennsyl- Vania and Columbian (now George Washington University He was ad- nitted to the bar and began practice in his native city in 1869. His connec- tion with politics dates from his ad- mission to the bar. He was one of the counsel for the TiIden electors be- fore the Florida returning board in 1876 In 1896 he ran for mayor of Pittsburgh, heading the Citizens Mu- nicipal- League ticket in a reform cam paign, and in 1909 he was the Demo- cratic candidate for 1ieutenant-gover- nor of Pennsylvania. From 1906 to 1909 he was mayor of the Smoky City, and his successful administration of affairs made him a national figure.
 President Wilson and MT. Guthrie have long been firm friends, and from the election of the former it was un- derstood that the Pittsburgh man would be given an ambassadorship. He was originally slated for the Mexican post, but when the California-Japan- csc controversy came up it was con sidered best to shift him to Tokio. Am bassador Guthrie has long been stu dent of international law. and his fa-

Put a clean suit on an active boy. and turn him loose, the chances are that within an hour he has been roll ing or tumbling. After a few days struggle, the maternal standard of cleanliness becomes much, more e1as- tic. The average boy gang by tho last of August is reduced to a dull uniformity of soiled overaI1s and khaki.
 The last days of vacation are pre- monitory to a general period of boy cleaning. The new clothes purchas- ed at this season give the youngster some slight pleasure, which is more than offset by the certainty of scrub pings to come The prospective reg ular washings and hair brushings per haps seem even more harassing to the little barbarians than the toll of the school room.

WATER SUPPLY AND EDUCATION

President Joe Cook, of the Missis- sippi Normal College, believes that the first step in the education of wo- men in the country should be the elimination of needless farm drudg- cry. No matter how good the rural school may be, he declares, 1t can not help permanently in making life in the country attractive unless there goes with it the movement to tighten the labor of women on the farm.
 The water supply in particular rouses President Cooks indignation. He is convinced that as much as nine tenths of the drudgery of women on the farm is due to anticipated methods of handling the water supply. Here is the way he states the case in a bull Ietin of the United States Bureau of Education:
 ''The getting of the water from the source of supply to the point of appli- cation requires more manual labor than any other item of housekeeping. The water for the kitchen has to be lifted from the well, carried to the kitchen, poured into a kettle, poured out of the kettle into the dishpan, and from the dishpan out of doors. This makes six times the water is handled; i; and a bucket of water containing 2 gallons. with the containing vessel, will weigh 20 pounds. When this is handled six times, the total lifting is 12O pounds. The cooking of meals a day on a meager allowance of wa ter will necessitate 10 buckets, which will make for cooking alone 1,2o0 pounds of lifting per day. When to

 Blood is thicker than water" and the realization of this fact has often Englfshmen, even when engaged in war. A tragic conception of this yer ity came to the people of Portland. Me, as a result of the naval battle between the American brig Enterprise and the British brig Boxer, fought off the rocky coasts of Maine just a hun dred years ago today.
 When the United States ship Ches- apeake was taken prize to Halifax, hundred years ago last June, the people of the Nova Scotia city felt mingled emotions of joy over the vic- the brave American commander who lost his life after gallant defense of his ship.
 So it was, too, when the Boxer was taken, prize. into Portland harbor Both commanders Lieut.. William Bur rows of the victorious Enterprise and Capt Samuel Blyth of the vanquished Boxer, were slain in the engagement. Both were young, both had fought braveIy, and Portland wept for both. With impressive ceremonies the youth full commanders were buried side by SlQe III POrtland cemetery. Tn the midst of battle, in the roaF of con- fict, they found the serenity of death' '' That funeral in Portland, when gal 1ant friend and heroic foe were alike honored, may be taken as symbolic of the hundred years of AngIo-Saxon peace soon to begin-
 In armament the Enterprise and the Boxer were equal each having four teen guns.

l in quest of English cruisers. On the morning of the 5th she sighted a Brit ish brig in a bay near Pemoquid Point It was the Boer, with Capt.
 Samuel BIyth in command.
 The Boxer did not wait for the En- terprise to take the offensive, but inn mediately bore down on the American. Burrows, accepting the challenge, or dered the decks cleared for action.
 It was twenty minutes past three in the afternoon when the vessels closed in within pistol shot of each other. They opened fire simultaneously. There was light wind, and very little sea, so that the aim of the gunners was good and the connonading was destructive Early in the engagement Capt. B1yth wac cut nearly in two by an etghteen-pound cannon ball.
 The American ranged ahead of the Boxer and, steering across the bows of her antagonist, poured in so ter rib1e a fire that at four o'clock the British officer in command shouted through his trumpet that he had sur rendered Blyth had nailed his flag to the mast and it could not be low cred until the Americans ceased fir ing.
 Burrows was mortally wounded at about the same time as Blyth. The latter was killed instantly. but the American commander lived several hours, and refused to be carried below until the sword of the commander oe the Boxer was brought to him. Grasp ing it in his hand, the lying man gasped, t'Now I am satisfied; I die contented." Lieut.. B. R. Mccall, who succeeded Burrows in command of the Enterprise, conducted his part of the engagement with great skill, and took both vessels into Portland harbor on the morning of Sept. 7th.
