They were fond of earrings. noserings

their love for these adornments, but
they are gradually being accustomed
TO the wearing OF breeches. The
Times says that full one-half the
humble people OF the hills now clothe
there neither limbs in the garments of
their civilized brethren" Two rea-
sons are assigned for previous back
Wardness. one was the lack of funds
to indulge in such luxuries and the
other a popular belief that the new
American officials were opposed to
breeches.
III isd ifficult TO understand how this
belief originated. We are assured by
the Times that IL is ill-founded The
Igorrotes had doubtless heard that
there had been a change OF ad-
ministration at Washington. Doubtless
some of the promises of return to
Jeffersonian simplicity were taken too
literally by the Filipinos. Even some
Americans were misled by Democratic
utterances whose Pickwickian char
acter they did not recognize. But Gov.
Harrison has done all in his official
power TO dispel the delusion that the
administration is opposed TO the wear
ing of breeches. Director Frank L..
Crane of the Bureau of Education has
addressed a communication to the di-
vision superintendent of school in the
mountain province assuring him that
instead of harborig a grudge against
trousers he would be glad to see them
worn by all the male children attend
ing the public schools. Commissioners
Illustre has been given special charge
to correct the rumor and is industri-
ously disseminating the truth. Per-
haps in a little while all the lgorrotes

servative people who will insist that
some parts of the Philippines are too
backward TO be given self-government.

MANY CHANGES

BY the time the European war is
over the people of the world will have
to learn their geography over again in
order TO be in "a position to know
where the various boundary lines are
and where the towns are located. The
luminosity between the different ma
lions engendered by the war has led
to the changing of names of towns
and countries 10 such a extent that
the new names will cause much con-
fusion in the future In Russia all the
German names of towns have been
changed and the same tactics have
been pursued by the Germans, French,
English and other nations. At the
end OF the war the map OF Europe
will be a strange looking affair to the
people who have not kept in close
touch with the things that have hap
pened during the past few months and
will continue TO happen for some
time to come. The last change to be
announced is hte changing of the
name of Servia to Serbia, which is
considered by the allies to be degrad-
ing to the little country that has been
one Of the buffer states of the war
and has been practically wiped out.
War develops strange alliances and
still stranger ideas and the world will
have to learn anew the geography of
Europe as a result of the war.
