The Englishman Spoke.

From the New Republic.
In second-clasS railway carria @e
going from Lausanne to Paris I once
passed night Of conflict. On NV side
were a Swiss who spoke English and
an Englishman who didn't speak. Our
opponents were two members of a Lat
in race. They wanted the windows shut.
We wanted at least one window open.
Our common cause drew the three of us
together. At first the Englishman's ex-
preston had seemed to wonder whether
the SWISS and the American We're quite
worthy to prefer fresh air. AS the night
wore on this expression waneG. and !
thought | detected a trace of sympa-
thy in the glances he sparingly aimed
at us. In answer to my question the
Swiss explained his mastery of the
English language by saying he had
learned without teacher, just by sit
ting near an open window in tub of
cold water. At this the Enelishman
almost spoke. Morning came. He filled
his pipe and began to hunt through his
pockets for matches. The Swiss offer
ed him a box. THANK YOU" he answer
ed gravely. Il prefer my own" and
went on hunting.

Botany and Agriculture.


To be sure, we can farm without be-
ing botanists, but We cannot farm so
well. Through the ages agricultural
man has stumbled on many important
facts and principles that the botanist
has later on explained, thus making
more scientific farming possible. Wit
ness the enrichment of land by grow
ing leguminous cropS-a fact mentioned
by PIiny, and explained by modern bot
any, and as a result utilized with vast
ly Increased success by the present-day
agriculturist. Witness. too. the history
of our knowledge of the wheat rust or
the recently discovered hereditary SYM
biosis of bacteria and seed plants
phenomena seen by agriculturiSts as in
glass. but very. very darkly until the
theoretical botanist explained them.
In spite of these instances and a hun
dred more. the practical man is coming
Increasingly to look with scorn upon
the theoretical botanist. What matters
it, say We" Alas. it matters much, I'M
less we happen individually to be en-
doWed. For botanical positions, like
other things in life, are controlled by
the law of supply and demand In
more than one institution that ! know
the tenure of position of the botanist
depends upon his success in attracting
students. The student, needing bread
and butter. will not be attracted to-
lines in which he cannot earn it, and.
as Mr. Dooley says, There ye are" In
several state universities the clash has
already come. and in every case of
which am co2uizant the more practi-
cal botany of the agricultural depart
ment has won as against the more
theoretical botany of the academic de-
partment. Even in our private institu-
lions we commonly have practical trus-
tees who sooner or later may see the
trend of the time and act accordingly.

From the London Chronicle.
Those who have tried it declare that
the petals of snowdrops. dried and
crushed to powder, make a fragrant
and eNhilarating snuff. However. some
of our country folk, who fill their
pipes with all kinds of weeds as sub
stitutes for tobacco, might not care
to hand round a box filed with snow
drop snuff. In many rural parts Of
England the snowdrop is flower Of
i'll repute 1t is unlucky to carry the
first spray of the season into the house
and it is a barbarous act to offer snow
drops to any one of the opposite sex.
Such gift is supposed to imply wish
for the death of the recipient.

Favors Regular Army Training.

The answer: ITO make the regular
army a training school to prepare men
for possible service in national de-
Tense would remove some of the dam
gers inherent in the maintenance OF a
comparatively small number of highly
trained professional soldiers. When
ever any one group becomes exclusive
and isolated from the general interests
and life of the nation there Is created
a condition out of which may come an
insidious danger to democracy. How
ever, any policy for general military
training must be carefully safeguarded
to prevent its becoming a mere agency
for intoxicating military ideas and es-
ia blishing more general sympathy for
military ways and purposes. In any
such plan, publicity and democracy Of
control are necessary to safeguard the
national welfare"
