AN INTERESTING CIT,

AN INTERESTING CITY
The city OF Atmer. where the school is
located, is an interesting place. and is a
most important city of Rajputana. It is
some 1000 feet above sea level, and has a
distinction OF being the highest city on
the plains OF India. 1t has a population
OF about So, 600 There are many beauti-
full lakes and hills about, and interesting
relics of ancient art and architecture
There is an important American Methodist
mission school here.
Rajputana covers a very large area I'm
northwestern India between the provinces
of Sind and the Puniab and is composed
of IS native States, the most important
of which are Bikaner, Jaipur and Udai-
pur As a particular instance OF how
education acquired at this college has
benefited these native States, l may mem
ton the remarkable development which
has occurred in Bikaner under its pro-
gresslve maharaja, who was one of the
early graduates and one of the most gener-
Gus patrons of this college. In the Mayo
College magazine, a monthly publication
issued from this college, recently ap-
peared an account OF the silver Jubilee of
the maharaja OF Bikaner at which an
interesting tribute was paid TO his high
ness progressive qualities by the Viceroy
OF India.
There are three other colleges in India

going over to enlarge their experiences,
to make new observations, to put in
practice the inductive method of arriv-
ing at truth, and to learn to think pro-
foundly and accurately in the German
universities That stream has flowed
backward ell over this country, fertiliz-
ing 1t with German thought and German
methods. These thousands of American
students have absorbed in Germany that
splendid spirit of scientific research now
developed In all fields of knowledge on
the same method and In the same spirit.
scientific research has been loarned
through practice In Germany by thou
sands of American students and teach
ers. 1t Is impossible to describe or oven
imagine what an immense INTEL sctual
gift this has been from Germany to
America. IT is, of course, true that
America Is indebt not only to Germany
but also to England, Scandinavia, France,
italy, and of late to Russia, for this per-
fected spirit and method Of research, but
America Is more indebted to Germany
than to any other nation, be cause the
range OF German research has been wider
and deeper than has been seen in any
other Of the nations mentioned.
There is another bond of union be-,
tween Germany and America which may
come some day to the stage of practical
efficacy. To be sure, IL is nothing but
sentiment or feeling; but sentiments
often supply the motive power for vigoF-
Gus action. The Teutonic peoples set a
higher value on truth in speech, thought
and action than any other peoples. Ger.
many and America, England, Scandi-
navia and Holland are one In this re-
spect. They all love truth; they seek It;
they WOO 1t. They respect the man who
speaks and acts the truth even to his
own injury. The English Bacon said of
truth: ut is the sovereign good of hui
man nature" That Is what all the Teu-
tonic peoples believe. They want to
found their action on fact, not fancy; on
the truth, the demonstrated truth, not
on imaginations. say that here Is a
fine bond of union, a real like mess of
spirit, a community in devotion and wor-
ship among all the Teutonic peoples. Let
us hope that at no distant day this COM
mon worship, this common devotion,
will result In common beneficent action.

American embassies and legations throughout Europe were authorized to charter ships in which to bring home American citl- zens.

 MT. Johnson pointed out that the requirements of international law de mand that no trasnfer of a vessel shall be made in a blokaded port or while the ship is on the high seas. In his opinion, however, with this
 limitation it simply is necessary that the sale be made in good faith, witI no intention to evade the conse- quences to which an enemy's vessel would be exposed and with no under standing expressed or tactic that the vessel is to be retransferred after hostilities."
