breadth and diplomatic experience
Secretary Lansing's informant de-
cIared that The Hague would be far
better for such negotiations than Der
lin because 1t Is neutral territory and
because of the absence of public -sen-
timent inevitable in the capital of a
warning nation and of a character
which would hamper delicate negOtfa-
tons. There is also involved in the
suggestion the idea that the men VINO
are now conducting the American
negotiations at Berlin are not Ideally
fitted for the difficult post. Ambassa-
dor Gerard seems to have taken the
wrong cue for successful work at that
end OF the line. He does not seem TO
be much I'm favor with the officials
OF the German foreign office and this
lack OF touch between our representa-
tive and the people with whom he
must deal Is hamperfng the situation.
There has been complaint that both
our ambassador to Germany and other
people corrected with our present
state department work. both there and
in neighboring countries, have exhib-
tied not only lack OF diplomacy but Of
neutrality as well. and by 80 doing
have destroyed their usefulness to
promote good and satisfactory rela-
lions either between this country and
Germany, or between America and the
other warning nations.

NORTHAMPTON.

Northampton, Mass, has the pecu-
liar distinction of being the most en-
dowed community In the United
States. The reasons why men ana
women of wealth have established
charities in this ancient colonial
town are not stated. but the fact is
obvious. Located in the western
part of the old Bay State. where the
Connecticut river breaks through
from the north with burden of saw
logs on it's bosom, hidden away in
the inlands a hundred miles from
Boston, it's ancient buildings over
shadowed by great elm trees, North
ampton has slumbered with its lap
full of gifts. for two and half cen
turtles.
1t was SOPHIA Smith. who. forty
years ago, endowed college for
women which was built in the very
heart OF Northampton. There have
been many endowments of schools
for women, but Smith College was
destined to attract to itself greater
numbers OF the sex in pursuit or
higher education than any other. Sew
enteen hundred of them each year
matricuIate, and their presence gives
a distinctive atmosphere to this town
of twenty thousand.
Smith is 4 good name in Northamp-
ton. There are the Smith Charities

than any young man in all the region
thereabout may have $500 in cash at
his disposal when he comes to the
age or twenty-one-if he meets GER

that every native born young woman
receives $50 when she marries or
$3.50 at twenty-one.
But to get this money these young
people must put themselves under
the eye of the directors OF the smith
charities to whom reports OF gooo
conduct must be made regularly by
employers or guardians. The idea
is that a desire to obtain this money

SELF CLEANING MUSIC BONES.

A cleaning attachment for play
er pianos and similar instruments,
recently patented, is claimed to over
come one of the greatest difficulties
in preserving the musical quality Of
these instruments. 1t includes a
pneumatic device and suction de-
vice, and means for connecting them
with the instrument.
Suction is the power depended up
on for the production of sound. 1t
is the motive force controlling and
regulating the flow of air through
the perforations upon the music
sheets.
These sheets pass over a tracker
board. The wear upon them. and the
dust sitting in from outside. tend to
impair the tone of the instrument.
The cleaning device removes this
dust by a utilization of the same
air which produces the sound.
The invention is especially adapt
ed to street pianos, and instruments
used in moving picture shows and
other places in which great deal of
dust is in the air. 1t not only inn
proves the quality of the music, but
prevents the loss OF service resulting
from the instrument being taken
apart for cleaning, which is usually
an expensive process.

A PrnrticaI Pence Plan.

That the United States could insure
peace between this country and Ger
many and very probably could accom-
plish much in the direction of ending
the war in Europe was the assurance
fust given the secretary of state by
we'll Informed American who has just
returned from six months in Germany,
where he was in the closest touch with
the foreign office. The plan he pro
poses Is the sending of a special am
bassador to The Hague to confer with
such representative as Germany might
send there. This man points oat that
Germany is greatly handicapped in
the present negotiations by her in
agility to communicate with its am
bassador in this country except
through England or our state depart
ment. He is convinced that If the
president could send to The Hague
such a man as Elihu Root, 0ho could
treat face to face with some German
authority of equal standing and
ability, the differences between the
two nations could soon be settled.
The American ambassador would
have no difficulty in communicating
with Washington in code, while the
German could communicate with Ber-
lin by telephone. Secretary Lansing
was further advised that. the difficult
ties between the United States and
Germany having been disposed Of,
through the maintenance OF the spec
faI embassy the influence of this coun-
try could be potently eNerted to bring
about a termination OF the war, always
provided the ambassador chosen for

The Real TroubIe.

The great trouble with any steps
looking to an increase of military
af3cIency under a Democratic admin
istration is that there is little real
sympathy with such steps in tnat
party. The initial step in that dlrec-
ton must come from the chairman OF
the military committee of the House,
lanes Hay. The wobbly attitude OF
Mr.. Hays mind has been emphasized
by Richard Harding Davis, the well
known author, by the use OF capitals
