The Richmond climax. (Richmond, Ky.) 1897-1914, 1914-09-09
For The President.

Now that practically all Europe has
been plunged into war over a pre-
text that must be considered trifling-
indeed absolutely contemplate in view
of the untold misery involved-it is to be
hoped that fair-minded Americans will
begin TO estimate more at their true
value the wisdom and justice of that
policy of watchful waiting which has
proved so successful in President Viii
sons handling of the Mexican question.
The United States had far more provo
cation for Intervention in Mexico than
Austria Hungary had for its truculent
attitude toward Servia. Huerta proved
himself a peculiarly exasperating per-
son, with much more ability and a
greater command of resources than were
at first credited to him, and there can
be no doubt that war OF invasion, and
possibly even of permanent occupation,
would have proved popular with large
part of the American public. After the
landing at Vera Cruz nothing would
have been easier than to find pretext
for such warlike policy. IL is infin-
itely to the credit of President Wilson
and his advisers that notwithstanding
the sneers and jeers of the empty-head-
ed, the malevolent and selfish interests
that desired to exploit Mexico for the
benefit of their own pockets, he resusd
to take advantage OF the weakness of a
sister republic, but adhered firmly to a
line of action that was high minded and
patriotic. Contrasted with the bullying
arrogance of Austria Hungary, which
has set all Europe aflame, the Presi-
dents course has shown the highest
craftsmanship, and his country has ben
Gifted immensely by his patience and
tact. This fact is now generally recog-
nized by intelligent Repub leans. The
Boston Herald, a loyal stand-pat organ,
after praising the President for resisting
the clamor to attack Mexico and com
pairing his course with that of the au
thorities in Vienna under less provoca
tion says: "But the President exercised
staying and steadying hand. We die
not go in. We have saved ourselves ih'
horrors of war, and the long legacy o
hate throughout Latin America, which
would surely have followed. If the ex
ample of our own President could flint
imitators among the crowned heads o
Europe it would be blessing TO human
lity."-Philadelphia Record.

ISddOrd Duncan to Teach
Thirty American Children

Closely following the news that Isa-
dora Duncan has transferred her
noted school Of Greek dancing to
Rye, n. Y, comes the announcements
that she intends enlarging her school
by the addition Of thirty American
children. With the twenty others
who escaped from Paris when the
war broke out, this will make total
of fifty children whom she will
clothe, feed and teach until they are
twenty-one The conditions for the
admittance of the fortunate thirty
are simple.
They must be between the ages Of
six and nine. for Miss Duncan be-
lieves that her art in It's perfection
can be exemplified only by the minds
and bodies of children. They must
be physically sound and show that
they have some natural instinct for
art as she defines it. Their parents
must agree TO allow them to stay in
the school until they are OF age.
These are the only requirements

In addition TO the privileges Of the
school, the children are allowed to
have "A months vacation at their
own homes every year. and to re-
ceive callers twice a week.
When they reach the age Of
twenty-one, they are expected to
carry on the teachings of their child
hood, which have fitted them for
many branches of work, for in ad-
dition to their dancing they are
taught nearly all the modern lam
guages. they have a comprehensive
grasp of history, and they are skill
ed I'm the arts, Industrial and prac-
teal.
Miss Duncan does not wish them
to use their dancing for commercial
purposes, however. 1t is one Of her
favorite theories that art is spoiled
by being used for monetary gain.
She believes that the beauty of soul
and body cultivated by the school
will have an immeasurable influence
for good when her pupils are sent to
face the world.
