does he feel his rawness but the older

The freshman is, of course a little
absurd from his unfamiliarity with his
new world. Ignorant of its manners
and customs, he makes blunders. The
sophomore who sneers at them seems
an infinitely wiser parsonage. As
matter of fact, he doesn't know much
more. His additional year of study and
experience has still left him with no
sonceits of extreme youth. His college
life may even have added to these con
ceits. Despite the freshman's vari
Gus awkwardness, he is a very attract

and ambitions. Perhaps these are
more fervent than they will be later in

VIII of Martha Washington Returned
10 Virginia.

During the Civil War some miscreant
stole from the archives of the Fairfax
county court house the will of Martha
Washington. Many years later It was
bought from some one by j. Pierpont
Morgan, and became one of the rarities
of his wonderful collection of priceless
treasures. AS soon as the Fairfax
county authorities heard of the sale
and were thereby enabled to locate the
long sought-for document, steps were
taken to secure its return.
Eventually Virginia passed a law
that permitted the State to bring an
action against the elder Morgan's son,
who had come into possession of the
will on the death of his father, and de-
clined to return IT, The other day Mr..
Morgan changed his mind and sent the
viii to the president of the Virginia
Court of Appeals to be disposed of by
him at his own discretion. This ends
the suit and brings about the restora-
tion of the historic document. That
the custodian of the instrument will
turn it over to its rightful owner may
be taken for grained. What will then
be done to preserve it will be determin-
ed upon by those interested. The fact
that Mr.. Morgan has indirectly return
ed the will to the owners is commend
able. He has done the right thing. He
is not the only collector, midlitary or
civil national or individual. who has
given up to rightful owners things of
which they had been despoiled.
There are in the Fairfax county
court house archives a number of
priceless records that better care
should be taken to preserve. fire
in quaint old Fairfax county court
house and away would go in smoke
what could never be replaced Copies
should be made of the original records
in the court house and then the latter
put away in some safe place where
the hand of the vandal could not effect

REVIVAL OF GRAIN SHIPMENTS

TlHE increase in the grain export business
u of this port in the past nine months is
satisfactory only to those who do not know
what has been happening at other American
ports A little more than twice as much
wheat, oats and corn have been shipped from
Philadelphia in the period mentioned this
year as in the same period last year, but the
United States increased from S142, 400, 900 in
the fiscal year of 1914 to S4s2, ,40O, 900 in the
fiscal year Of 1915. Philadelphia has shipped
abroad 17900000 bushels of wheat in the past
nine months, whereas in the corresponding
period last year the exports were 10000, 900
bushels.
With all that has been done to attract
business here, it is evident that we have
not succeeded well as we should. There
remains much to be done before the port will
rise to the rank to which its location and
facilities entitle it. 1t will be a mistake to
assume that even the grain business which
once came here is to come again without
any one going out to get it. The exports
this year may be larger than in any pre-
vious twelve months, but other ports are
competing for the trade. It is necessary to
make conditions so favorable here that those
who use the port once will use It again. It is
important, also, that the Philadelphia busi-
other parts of the country by doing their
water-borne business through the Delaware
River instead of at some other port.

INCREASING THE WRONG WAY

EVENTS do not always turn out as we ex-
IL pect. There is that boom in South
American trade that was to follow the out
break Of the war in Europe. But the export
figures do not disclose any boom. In 1914 the
United States sold to Argentina goods worth
$45,OOOOOO, but in 1915 the exports to that
country slumped to $S2O0OO0O. There has
been decrease of more than 81, 900, 900 in the
exports to Brazil instead of the anticipated
increase.
Business depression in South America has
been partly responsible for the decline in
trade with this country; but the depression
itself has come about through lack of capital
for carrying on the business American in
vestors have not been willing to supply the
capital and the Europeans who have been
wont to finance South America have had
other uses for their money
We cannot increase our trade with Latin
American Republics by simply saying that
we should like to increase it.
