rNTEJLECTUALLITY IN THE
SENATE

Tho Dallas News in commenting on
,be probable retirement of Senators
poot and Burton, takes a rather pes
,mestic view of the trend of things
i the United States Senate. 1t is
,rua that these Senator's are very
strong men but we can not expect
mon Of the same intellectual type
or personal habits and bearing to re-
main in the Senate all the time. The
fact that they retire and others take
their places does not mean however,
that the Standard is lowered. 1t is
like BOYS going to school. Those who
know of the personality and intellec
ha ability of their colleagues often
feel that their successors are not in
teectually as strong or mature. 1t
is simply their way of looking at
things.
1t may be possible that there is
something in the system that puts
men into office that is not very ac-
ceptable to men of the highest in
tellectual type. Commenting on this
the News says;
"The Senate will lose two men
whose stature is equal to the tallest
in that body, with no prospect of ac-
cession which will compensate for the
loss. The average of intellectual
ability in the Senate has suffered
steady lowering for a good many
years and there is nothing to suggest
that the end has been reached. We
don't know whether this is a condition
which could fairly be charged to the
new method Of electing Senators or
not; but if it can be, then the change
was a doubtful reform, to say the
least A system that makes public
service repulsive to such men as Sen
ator Burton and Senator Root lacks
good deal of being ideal"

For Federal Censorship.

The Christian Science Monitor of
Boston, which wields wide editorial
influence, is in favor of the proposed
federal censorship, because it believes
that it is "a step that would make for
Capitalization, compactness, and fixed
responsibility" Most likely such a
step would be, as the Monitor con-
tinues, welcomed by all respectable
film producers and motion picture
houses" if, and the "if" could well go
i'll capital letters, there could be any
assurance that federal board would
retard the mushroom-like growth of
censor bodies all over the country. But
we are afraid the federal idea is some
what late in it's birth; too many small
boards have already tasted the joys
of minding other peoples morals, too
many legislators are ready to create
new jobs, while making good campaign
material No, there will be ninety-and-
nine censor boards whether there is
one labeled federal or not. And
meanwhile the poor picture straggles
along it's trouble-beset route.

Queen Victoria In the Films.

A new moving picture spectacle en-
tledi"Victoria, Sixty Years Queen"
which for some time has been on view
in London, is now in this country.
This elaborate picture not only en-
braces the main incidents in the life
of Queen Victoria, but illustrates i'm
portant events in England's history
during the sixty years of her reign. 1t
is given in seven sections, comprising
two hundred and eighty-nine scenes.
These scenes include Victoria's nOti-
fication, when sixteen years old, Of
her ascension to the throne, her coro-
nation at Westminster abbey, the
meeting with the prince consort, her
wedding, the christening of the prince
Of Wales, the attempt on her life in
Hyde park, the Indian mutiny, the
death of the prince consort, the we'd
ding Of the prince Of Wales, the
queens meeting with Charles Dickens,
cabinet meetings presided over by
Benjamin Disraeli, General Gordon's
last stand at Khartum, his death, and
other events up to Victoria's death In
1900. Three actresses portrayed the
queen at different stages.

MADE ONE VAST HOTHOUSE
Fruit and Flower Growers Have Taken
Almost Complete Possession of
Island Of Guernsey.

"Why! the beautiful little island
has been spoiled by the fruit grow
ers." SO said an enthusiastic lover of
nature when he landed at Guernsey
few days ago.
Who ever heard disparaging word
about the lemons, oranges, vines. figs,
olives and flowers that abound in
Sicily? 1t would be considered the
height of bad taste to object to those
delightful growths of the Mediter-
ranean island, remarks the London
Telegraph. Then why complain of the
cultivation in Guernsey? Because it
is quite different. Sicify's products
grow under the canopy of heaven, but
Guernsey is practically one large
glass house. Nurseries, growers, and
agents are the principal features of
the place. The names of British fruit
and flower statesmen are emblazoned
in prominent positions, and cOnversa-
ton in Guernsey does not stray much
beyond the limits of such subjects as
deal directly with the cultivation and

It is all very well for the idealist to
grumble because the natural beauty
of the place is injured by the enor-
nous number Of glass houses, but this
is utilitarian age, and the output of
those houses is most acceptable to
England in general and London in par
tGular. From the "a square miles
