LORDS PRAYER IS
 CUT BY .CENSORS

Paris, Nov. 17.-As threats and en- treaties have proved equally vain against the censorship, the Temps Isst night attacked it with ridicu1e, which is regarded as the deadliest weapon in the Parisian armory.
 Pierre Mile, one of the best-known contributors writes column article, beginning:
 Regarding the origin of the conl vulsion which is shaking Europe, to- gether with the least known dipIo- matic secrets and the most concealed strategic propects, am going to make some Amost important reve1a- tions.,'
 Before he can reveal anything here, however, the censor intervenes with a four-line cut. He continues:

FINE UNIVERSITY OF FRANKFORT
 OPENS DESPITE WAR ACTIVITIES

In still another respect the Uni versity of Frankfort differs from the other German i1sstitutions It has namely, no theological faculty. An effort was made to give it one but the proposal Was defeated by the argu- nnent that the number of theological students has greatly decreased at the existing universities, and hence that there~ was no ground for increasfnk the faculties for theological instruc- ton. Yet Frankfort will have n4ol $ faculties than the other universities owing to the fact that it assigns to separate faculties some subjects that are grouped together at the older in- stitutions. It will have the following five departments: law, medicine, phil osophy, natural science and economic and social science.
 Frankfort starts out with more than one hundred professors and ir1struc- tors, and it is already a greater insti- tuition in this respect than Giessen. TIlebingen, StrassbuEg. Jena, and some other German universities. The professors were mostly called from the other universities Several were taken from Berlin. several from Vi enna, still others from Liepzig, Basic, kiel and Prague.
 The, new university has libraries. hospitals and museums as part of it's splendid equipment. The city of Frankfort places at it's disposal the municipal library of more than $50. 000 volumes. as well as the great city hospital established about 25 years ago. This gives the Univ ersdty NhetteT facilities in some departments o1 medicine than some of the older in stitutions. Thus is has two clinics especia11y for cTi1dren's diseases, as well as others for ear and throat dis eases-facilitie which some of the other institutions are still longing for The George Speyer House for making reasearches Into pharmaceutical Izchemistry, which is presided over by the famous Prof Paul <EhrlIch, has apparently been Incorporated bodily into the new university.

THEN. ..... and. -. NOW

Fsorty-five years ago today Ferdi- nand De Leasepps, the builder of the Suez Canal, in company with Elm press Eugenie of France, began the voyage on the tAigle'' through the Canal followed by 68 vessels of Val- ious nationalities. It took them three days to reach Suez at the eastern end, and the canal was then formally op- ened to the maritime trade of the world. The new canal was only eight meters deep with a bottom width of only 22 meters. Vessels could pass each other only at widely separated crossings and in Great Bitter Lake. Passage for vessels drawing more than 23 feet of water was impossible, and for vessels drawing twenty feet, it was tedious owing to the danger of grounding. But the canal at once be- ca me a great boon to comm cree. For the first time the great storehouse of Indian wheat could be drawn on by Europe for bread, for on account of the tropic heat and the weavil, wheat could not be shipped by way of the Cape Yet on the other hand the large shipment of grain from India. had contributed to the causes of the frequent famines there. The Canal eompanay charged 10 francs per ton for toll. Though in 1870, 800 vessels used the canal it failed to pay ex- penses and continued to run behind for some years The canal from the beeinning was neutraiized, but in 888 reDresentativess of all the principal nations of Europe met in convention. and formally ratified the neutrality; Great Britain reservfng the right to declare that this neutrality should not interfere with her control of Egypt.
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1914-11-17

Today the Canal has undergone great improvements It has an av- craze depth of nine meters and a width of 65 meters at the bottom be- tween Port Salad and the Great Bit ter Lake and from the Lake to Suez an average of 771-2 meters. To make these Improvements 100,0oO,00O francs were expended. Had they not been made within the last ten years, the Panama Canal would now take from the Suez Canal great bulk of its trade. The Suez can now pass great steamers drawing Q depth of 28 to 29 feet of water and with their search lights they may easily navigate the Canal at night and pass each other at many points The passage xsnow eff fected in 16 hours. The71 71.snprove- ments entai1ed an expense that caused the French Canal company, large number of whose shares were held by the Khedive of Egypt to lose con troI Of the Canal to the British gov ernnient But France, having with drawn from Egypt, Great Britain in 1904 agreed fully to. the stipulation that the Canal should be a neutral highway during war as well as dur ing peace. Had this agreeement been in effect in 1898, Spain could have used the Canal fo send her heavy fleet to Manila to attack Dewey. Russts in her. war with Japan used~the Canal to send her Baltic fleet to the China; Sea. The Canal toll is now $1.20 per ton, the same as that of Panama Tn 1912. 5,37S vessels navigated the Canal, .the total receipts being sO,- 900 900 francs and the expenses 41s- 600 ,o00

 ssThere have been some deserip- tions of eases where these tubular lances have crumpIed up in action like an overburdened steel mast on a racing yacht.
