POLITICS AND EDUCATION.

Wisconsin University is going
through the throes of a divorce from
politics. LaFollette conceived the
idea of making that institution a part
of his political machine. Now the
process of undoing his work is prov.
ing a hard one and it is also having
a very unfortunate effect upon the
university itself.
The reputation Of LaFollette and
his policies in Wisconsin has neces'
STATED a readjustment between the
university and the state.
We quote from an article in! the
New York Post, which sent a special
correspondent to investigate condi.
lions at Wisconsin:
AT the capitol, in the press, and
among all sorts and conditions OF
men in Madison one hears statements
such as these: !
- The university has tried toSrur
the state; the university has been. a
hotbed of radicalism and LaFollette
ism; the university has encouraged
and fostered government by commits
sions aid bureaus, and is largely re
sponsible for the intolerably high and
heavy taxes of the local and state
governments; the university has at
tempted too much and has abused its
freedom"
Thee is a general feeling that the
institution a be divorced from poll
Tics without injuring the efficiency OF
the university.

NO GERMS ON FIRING LINE
At Least Soldiers, Hourly Exposed to
Death, Have One Advantage
Over Civilians.

Trenches are healthier than bar
racks or camps for soldiers, 80 far as
infectious diseases are concerned. De-
spite the hardships, cold, exposure, IT.
regular meals, strain Of nerves, and
other wholly unhygienic conditions,
Infectious diseases are usually at .;
minimum, on the firing line, so says
Col. Valery Harvard of the United
States medical corps. DR.. H. w. Hill
Of the Minnesota Public Health asso'
ciatlsn explains this seeming paradox.
In Me barracks and camps the sol
diers have wide intercourse with each
other, and with civilians, thus picking
up whatever infectious diseases are
going about. Despite regular life,
good meals, discipline and sanitation,
the infectious diseases attack them
But lin the trenches they are compare
lively isolated, and since infected sol
diers are not allowed there, those on
the firing line have little chance to be
come infected at all. Such injuries
as cold, starvation, strain a produce
are, Of course, suffered, but infectious
diseases are not included in this, list
Parallel cases in civil life are not un'
common, and everyone knows OF fam
