made a great reputation in the days
Of plain living. and wealthy parents
began to send their daughters. These
rich girls soon dazzled and outshone
the farmers daughters. The farm
ers' daughters began TO be distress
ed. They worked harder. and Dor
rowed money, and stayed out OF
school TO earn money so that they
might keep up with their rich class
mates. For a time the faculty tried
To limit the expenditures OF the
richer girls, but this required a
great deal of pains and trouble.
Finally the president said that I'M
less a girl could have $500 year
il was not best for her TO go TO col
lege at all. Today not single farm
er's daughter can get into that
school unless as charity student.
The whole institution has been taken
away from the people, for whom
il was founded.
Now when this thing has hap
pened TO a great many schools thru
out this world, ii becomes our duty
to take warning for ourselves in
time. We have been able for twen-
ty-three years TO keep the expenses
at Berea from rising. We have met
each rise in the price OF provisions
by some new device in economy,
and with some effort we have kept
the customs Of simplicity down TO
the present time. II is a struggle
every year. Every year there are
students who try TO introduce ex-
pensive customs, and teachers who
suddenly discover how fine il
would be TO do certain things which
some people do, but which Berea
Omits because of the cost.
So | wish, this morning, as a
part of my farewell charge, TO teach
all Of you the reason for this eternal
war against the rise in school ex-
In the first place il is a trouble

mountains are in definite layers as
TO their financial ability. We now
estimate the expenses of a college
student at Berea at $40 a year, Of
which he may comfortably earn in
term time $40. II costs him or his
family $3.50 cash. Now this is
prohibitive price for large pro-
portion Of the country people Of the
United States, and especially Of the
mountains. But there are a good
many who can and do raise the $3.50,
and send us a son or a daughter. II
we allow a raise in the total ex-
penses-an increase in price OF
board, or books, or clothing or
amusements or any other item--if
we allow a raise in this total net ex-
pense, so that il goes up, let US say
from $3.50 10 $50, that will cut of
certain families that were already
doing all they possibly could in
raising the $3.50. The school has
such a reputation that other stu
dents from richer families will
come in and Ill the vacant places,
but the $3.50 families will be hope
lessly excluded. In other words as
q school increases the expenses OF
its students il changes its constitu-
ency; il cuts of the poorer families
and takes richer ones in their
place.
Now Berea has taken her stand
TO provide for the middle class Of
mountain families, those that can
raise $3.50 a year for a child's ed
ucation. We wish we could go
lower. We wish we could reach the
$50 families, or even the S25 fami-
lies. These can only get their chill
ldren to Berea through the Halliday
/ School.
But we must not desert the great
middle class of mountain families
those that can raise $3.50 and can
not raise more. II is our business to
see that enough is added from our
endowment and donation income so
that these $3.50 families shall get
the best training possible for their
children.
They cannot afford what DIR. Pear
sons called ian education with
frills," and il is our duty TO make
il possible TO get an education with
out the frillsl

Death And Revolution

TNHE repeated announcements from Berlin,
y which quote Constantinope as proof that
there are revolutions in India, Ceylon and Egypt
are probably safety valves, in which respect the
French and British press have the German Crown
Prince to fall back on. About every time India
seethes" the Crown Prince meets his death"
The first time the Crown Prince died it was
as the result of an assassination in Berlin Au-
gust 5, 1914 when the was just gathering
Roadway. On August l8 he MORALLY wound
ed in battle on the French frontier and two days
later he was again the victim of attempted as
sassination, this time losing leg. The third
attempt against his life made on August "a
and on September he committed suicide. Nine
days later he died in Brussels hospital and on
September IS he had narrow escape while lead
ing an attack upon Verdun. The next day he was
hit by schrapnel in Poland and two days later
again wounded on the French front. On Sep
TENDER 20 he was FASTENED from the firing line to
his death bed in a field hospital and on October
"a he was buried in Berlin The same day his
dead body was found the battlefield in the
Argonne and he again buried on November
3. The next day, November 4, the French killed
him again and on November 8 he went violently
insane and taken under guard to a lonely
Prussian castle. On November Is he was APP
pointed commander7 Fin chief the east front and
on November IL he, was once more killed. Until
January 10, this year, he was unchronicled by the
press of the Allies, but that date he was once
more MORALLY wounded and on February he
was sent home crippled and in a hopeless
dition. "
Just now the revolutions in India are breaking
out again in the Teuton press and the Crown
Prince is recovering from his latest death.

Rial argued the right Of the Filipinos to self
government through the inherent knowledge Of
the principles Of free government he claimed for
them and through their ability to both make and
obey laws. His teachings wen of, honesty, in
dustry and thrift, and isspatriotisrn was shown
as much in the manner in which he combatted
the evils he saw amongst his own zcountrymen as
those he traced to Spanish, overlordship. His

from their own errors as from the rule OF Spain,

has long since graduated from the idea that it's

Yet, in Honolulu he is almost compelled to

| This is not because the average Honolulan does
not want to mix with the average soldier but
mainly because the soldiers are here in such num-

Love Of Country

MANY thousands of Americans praise Ger
AVA many for her efficiency and loyalty who re-
fuse to do anything, toward efficiency and loyalty
in the United States? -
No one can estimate the relation of military
drill to love of country.
Until within recent years high school boys were
instructed in military tactics Now this has been
abandoned. The state university which has mill
tary instructor is now the exception rather than
the rule.
Men are willing for their sons to take dancing
lessons in order that they may be graceful in So
ciety. The same fathers are opposed to military
/. sttuction, which is the only thing which will
cause a man to carry himself as if he possessed
life and vim.
The colleges, whose presidents advocate peace
at any price, will shout themselves hoarse at a
football game and scarcely give second thought
to the boy who is hurt on the field If the second
thought is given the boy is called hero and his
wounds are incidents of the battle.
Germany is praised for her stawart manhood by
the people who hope to make stalwart manhood
in the United States at prayer meetings
System and order are demanded on the farms
of Iowa. and nothing promotes system and order
like military training.
The United States needs an army of reasonable
size for the defense of her shores, but the United
States more than all else, needs to build up pa
triotic citizenship. ,aN.l sfe
If the youth has not learned patriotic airs while
he is youth he will never learn them A youth
loves his college songs because they recall college
days. The old soldier loves Marching Through
Georgia" because it recalls his glorious days of the
past But during the last forty years the youths
of America have been wandering. Their hearts
have not been located. The minister says, Trust
in God" The heavy taxpayer says, This nation
does not need defenders until attacked"
What is needed in the United States is not a Zig
standing army but big hearted citizenship which
will not stand around and listen to any ma
ligning the great republic, which represents the
last struggle for self-government.
In Portland, Oregon, the peace bas gone

stroyed patriotism at home.

FINALLY DECLARED OFF

On account of paucity of bookings
the Inter-Island company has called Off
it's projected excursion to Kahului by
the steamer Kilauea; which was to
have sailed for the Maui port tomorrow
night.
Mere than one hundred soldiers who
had expected to be able to make the
trip have been prevented from doing
so on account of their services being
required to repair the damage done BY
the recent storm at Schofeld Barracks.
Up to noon yesterday only fifty other
bookings had been received. The com
pany. required guarantee that 200 per
sons would make the trip in order to
ensure the excursion.
HOnOlulans who are DESTROYS of

Hell and Automobiles

SS'1NHERE are more people riding to hell in au-
L tomobiIes than in any other manner" shout
ed sensational preacher in Buffalo the other day.
And he might have added that most of the autos
are made in Detroit, without sandering anybody,
says the Free Press of the latter city. For If any
riding to HELP in autos it is not the fault of
the auto nor argument against the use OF this
modern means of transportation. D.: ..s
There was a time when people rode to hel' in
bugges. But the buggy is going to join the Sedan
chair which in it's day was sometimes spoken of
popular conveyance to birthstone regions. The
auto rs everyman's vehicle now and is subject TO
the whms of its owners. The auto is not in
trnsically enthusiastically fiendish or devil
possessed 1t is metaliferous so to speak 1t
does not think 1t is no more than machine.
Some varieties excel others, according to report
and belief But all of them act as they are made
to act by their drivers and road conditions.
The sensational preacher can't shift the respon-
sibility of the individual to the nanimate machine
If any auto is carrying anybody to hell or toward
high water it is made to do So Blame the driver
the individual driver not all drivers.
