FELTON, on October 81, to deliver
his lecture on "Our Town-A
Typical Community"
The first of series of extension
lectures in Delmar was given by
DR.. W. 0. Sypherd OH Friday even
ing, October 30, the subject being
."What Should a High School Stu
dent Read9" The speaker refer
red in his introduction to the diff
ficulty Of answering the question.
Even teachers of literature dis
agree as to the books which should
be read during the high school
period. In order to arrive at a
satisfactory answer, we must be in
reasonable accord on some funda-
mental ideas in secondary educa-
ton; for instance that student
must study things that he does not
like and that he must do many
things which he find difficult to
understand. The general answer
to the question might then be sug-
gested. A high school student
should be asked to read these
books which are generally ac-
cepted as constituting a part of
liberal education and which are
near enough to a student s in
terests and comprehension to
justify an honest, intelligent,
to justify and honest, intelligent,
and profitable reading. Giving a
more specific answer to the ques-
ton, the speaker indicated brief
list of books and authors which he
considered most important: The
Bible, Shakspere, Milton's Para
disc Lost, Pilgrims Progress, Rob-
lnson Crusoe and Gulliver's Tray
els, Vicar of Wakefield, Burns,
Scott. Tennyson, and Stevenson.

Had Heard Only Rumor.

LONDON, Aug. 21.-Victor H. Luras, American vice consul at Liege, Bel gium, reached London today. He left Liege last Friday to make report at Brussels to Brand Whitlock, American minister to Belgium. After concluding his mission in Brussels the vice consul was unable to re-enter Liege, although he tried to gain access to the city from all sides.
 Luras said he did not know whether or not Liege had capitulated. He said all sorts of rumors are in circulation in Holland but there is no definite in- formation as to the conditions in Liege Most of the American tourists left Bel gium several days ago but Luras said that many foolishly had rushed into Switzerland, where conditions are un- satisfactory. He found Americans well cared for in Holland where many are getting accommodations on ships sailing for America.
 Luras is under orders to proceed to the American consulate at St. Peters, burg. He will be unable to cross Ger many or the Baltic but will try to get through on the railroad route from Norway,

Last Heard of leipziu

SEATTLE, Wash, Aug. 21.-The first definite information as to the whereabouts of the German cruiser Leipzig since she left San Francisco early on Tuesday morning was brought to port by the American tank steamer Catania, which arrived from Port Luis and reported that she had been halted by the Leipzig on Tues day one hundred and fifty miles north of San Francisco
 Captain Canty of the Catania said he was running along without dis playing his colors when the Leipzig bore down upon him at full speed from the southwest. When within a mile of the Catania, which paid no attention to the approach of the German cruiser, the Leipzig displayed her colors and hoisted signals which read: "Heave to, show your colors. '
 The Catania promptly stopped fer engines while the quartermaster ran up her signal letters and displayed the American flag at the stern Ap- parently satisfied, the Leipzig sig nailed the Catania to proceed and turned about and put to sea.

 "Advices received here indicate that trouble at Ray arose from law less acts by individual Mexicans.
