whom Robert Owen bought the land

was given authentic publicity, through

Duss.

Earlham College

This is stock taking season for Earlham Col
ege. The management is endeavoring to meas
ure the progress made in the past year, to esti-
mate it's present strength and to lay plans for
the future. While this is going on, it might be a
good thing for the community to take stock of
the college and to make as careful an estimate of
what it possesses in the institution.
The mere opportunity of being able to send
our sons and daughters to college in our own COM
munity is in itself very great advantage.
large number of young persons have been able
to get college education, because the college was
at home. who couldn't have afforded to have gone
elsewhere. To this economic advantage Of hav-
ing local college must be added the still more
important advantage that great deal OF the
moral danger attending college life is eliminated
when the student is able to live at home while
getting his education.
1t is also of inestimable value to the commu-
nifty to have living in its midst the splendid set
of men who compose Earlhams faculty. Tak-
ing all things into consideration Earlham has the
best faculty of any college in the state" said an
Indiana educational authority some time since,
and a study of the list of professors appointed
tor the coming year fully justifies this comp-
mentary remark.
Some may be inclined to underestimate the
Importance and standing of the school because
of its comparatively small size. But it is coming
to be understood that this is in no sense as much
Of disadvantage is popularity supposed. In
many ways, it is far better for pupil to be in a
small school than in large one. He receives a
share of individual attention which would be
quite impossible in the great institutions and
comes under the personal influence of the profess
sors to an extent which the extremely heavy at
tendance of the universities often make quite
impossible

"the successor to Rapp is married
man.
This, Duss, stated to the writer, was
the popular misconception of the Rap
pites toward marriage.
While celibacy was advocated and
pra cticed, it was not compulsory, said
Mr., Duss. There were always occa-
sional marriages among the members
of the community.
On the train returning from New
Harmony the writer heard high school
boy say to a couple Of school girls ::
you know they didn't believe in mar
riage."
Just who he meant by they" and
what he meant by didn't believe in
marriage" it is difficult to say
But this remark epitomizes the
vague attitude the public sustains to.

its earlier phases.
Many persons think the Rappites adj
vocated celibacy, and Robert Owen
and his associates what is curiously
termed free love" But the fact is
that neither state was advocated auto
cratically by either regime.
Rapp is Genius.
The RappiteS conducted commun.
lty upon some Of the principles of the
modern Socta'i9tic prOpag anda But
the success Of this community was al.
most wholly owing to the organizing
Genrs at its head. And this, saws
Duss, was Frederick Rapp, the adopted

I The interest from the standpoint of
modern Socialistic propaganda, there

autocratic head. the community would
not have been the successful industrial
experiment it was.
The RapDites were the first arts and

VARS COST TO THOSE LEFT BEHIND.
sUFFER|NGs OF THE HEROES UNsUNG

Praises Of the heroes OF the firing
line and OF the quarter deck are ever
the theme Of the war correspondent
and the news agency in time Of war.
During the present European embro-
Clio the most cruel and highest eff
ficient'' from a death-dealing stand
point the world has ever known or
probably ever will know, the war COR
respondent is lacking Apparently he
is a thing Of the past However, by
the grace CT the board Of censors of
the different countries involved, lit
tie news is allowed to trickle through.
News CT the bravery Of this or that
admiral or general, sometimes even
the bravery Of a man in the ranks
calling for comments but never word
of the bravery Of the long-sunering
grey-haired parents awaiting through
sleepless nights for the return OF
their" boy, or of the heart-bioken
wife and comrade of the man who
marched away at "duty's" call, wait
ing for the loved one who will never
return.
The following letters, received in
this city by Mile. Juliette Dintilhac
from her aged parents and heart-brok-
en- sister-in-law, evidence in striking
fashion the suffering Of the heroes
left behind those heroes whose
praises are left unsung in the de-
spatches from the front, for the rea-
son that their sufferings never can
be known along the firing line.

Under date Of August 81, from
Esvres, France. the mother Of Mile.
Dintilhac writes as follows:
MY Dear Daughter:
II have just received your letter
dated July the 10th. 1t must have
been delivered, for things are very bad
just now In France.
The country here is very sad and
desolated. All the men are gone to
the war up to As years old and per-
haps those from 45 to so will be called
also. There is nobody left to work
in the fields and so the poor old faith
er like many other old men has to
work very hard. Today your father
is working at the station to embarque

necessary for the poor soldiers and
horses.

I'VE pray that the war will soon

The letter from the sister-in-law,
dated at Paris, August 10, follows:
"My Dear Sister: -
Yesterday received your letter
and | am very happy for you do not
ignore what is happening in France.
| IT is sad to see such terrible things.
1t is two weeks that my poor Eugene
is gone and where he is at this time
do not know. When he left me he
was going to Chatauroux, but since
the 18th he has left Chatauroux. He
went away the second day Of the mo-
Utilization.
Since the third of August l am all
alone and very sad. You know that
the children are gone down to the
grandparents.
My little girl writes me very often
and she tells me not to worry about
her little papa, that he will be all right
but you know that cannot help feel
ing sad when one sees those that
they love so much going away In
such terrible conditions. If he was
in good health would not feel the
same for know that there are many
classes to 60 to the front before his
class. But how many poor fellows are
there who do not go to the firing lines
but nevertheless die from exposure
When the doctor came to examine my
little girl he did not hide from me the
fact that my husband was a sick man
and when see him far away, grow
ing worse, without the care that +
could give him, the anxiety is too great
for me.
George, our nephew, the poor boy,
is in very bad place He is on the
first line Of the battle front but his
news is good. But how many young
men will never return.
Il viii write to you again as soon as

Mcbride stated that he was scared,
fearing that McCarn might have an

loose. He said that after he had left
the federal building and had started
to run down the street toward town,
