the time is right for a reaction
against the slushy soldering plays

is a new variation of THE Tanning of

amusing. and ingenious diversion.
Instead of being the usual noble,
pauseating, magnanimous and chiv-
aIrous hero the principal male char
atcer is an approach to real mnn.
And the heroine, instead of being
worshipped for her virtues, is frank

who is entitled to no credit whatso-

she does not want to do.
In the first act she plays an out

which humiliates him and in an al
most incredible fashion. She DELHI

Foreign Students and the United

Foreign Students and the United
States.
Convinced that one of the results
of the present European war will be to
interest foreign students in opportun-
ties for education in the United States,
Dr. P. P. Claxton, United States Com.
missioner of Education, has authorized
the immediate preparation and publ
cation of special bulletin describing,
for the use of foreign students, the
facilities for professional and collegiate
study in higher Institutions of learn
ing in this country. The bulletin will
be printed in several languages.
This is Americas opportunity. de-
clares Commissioner Claxton. Thou
sands of students who have been at
tending universities in Europe will be
obliged 10 look elsewhere for higher
education, not only this year, but per-
haps for gears to come. Many foreign
students are already coming to us,
many more will come as the result,
direct and indirect, of present events.
I'VE have nov a supreme opportuni-
~ TO demonstrate our capacity for
intellectual leadership Whether the
war continues three months or three
years, our opportunities and obliga-
tions to take the lead in education and
civilization viii be the same, and
America should respond by Offering
the best opportunity in the world for
her own students and for those who
may come from other countries.
"In the case of South America this
atudent migration will be facilitated
by the eppertune opening of the Pana-
ma Canal Students from the western
coast of South America will find it al
luringly convenient to go via the Canal
to educational centers in the United
States.
Within the last two decades the in
crease in opportunity for graduate
study and research and for profess
sional and technical education has
been very remarkable. much greater
than most people even in America
realize. The recent raising of stand
ards and the better equipment of med
ical schools, the large endowments and
appropriations for all forms Of engi-
neering, the marvellous growth of our
colleges of agriculture, the Develop
rnent of colleges, and schools Of ed
ucation. and the rapid increase In in

it possible for this country to take the
lead in education in way that would
have been impossible even at the be-

The cominlssary OF the Mexican Is I'M

to the front their household pets as
well as their children. The household
pets consist as general thing of a
number of lighting cocks. 1t Is Mr..
