Swap More Teachers?
 Indeed Not!- Berlin

Berlin, May 23.-The introduction some years ago of an exchange profes- sorship system between Germany and America was a tremendous mistake. for it led America to the false belief that her educational institutions are as good as good as those of Germany, according to Prof. Edward Meyer, him. self one-time exchange professor, and now as then professor of history at the University of Berlin.
 ''The exchange of professors says Prof. Meyer, which the government called into being against the warning of the Berlin philosophical faculty, was failure. In reality we sacrificed the hitherto recognized superiority of our universities, and awakened in the Americans the energeticaIly exploited belief that they are equal even supe- rior to us. It is clear that hte Ques- ton is not settled and that it will not arise again. Should an effort be made to revive it am firmly confident that it would collapse under a storm of in dignation.
 Prof. Meyer, who holds the degree of LID. from the University of Chicago, went to Harvard in 1909 as an ex- change professor. He holds honorary degrees from Oxford and St. Andrews Universities in England, and from number of German institutions.

 Part Two.)

The first instalment win be received by the commissioners of the subscr1p- ton, and the certificates of stock for the proportion of the same payable in funded debt, must be then delivered, accompanied with sufficient powers of attorney from the proprietors of the same, to transfer the stock to the President Directors and Company of the BANK OF THE UNITED STATES and a form recommended for this purpose is hereunto annexed Q Any number Of subscribers more than one may unite in the payment of that portion of the capital stock, both coin and funded debt, which will be payable at time of subscription but the.

 Receipts will be delivered by the commissioners in the name of every fsubscriber specifying the amount paid Iby him in coin and Funded Debt
 If a larger un1 should be subscribed than the capital required, the surplus as soon as ascertafned, according to the act of incorporation, will be forth with returned to the original sub scriber, his attorney or legal repre- sentative.
 To enable the subscribers to be represented at the first choice of Di- reetors of the Bank; it is desirable that an agent should be seasonably appointed by those who may not per sonally attend at Philadelphia, and for this purpose a form of authority, as proxy is annexed hereunto.

 Australian Apples

Melbourne Australia, May 23.-The Australian apple crop which is unus- ua1ly big this year is seriously af- fected because of the death of ships for export. In the two chief apple producing states, Tasmania. and Victo- ria, nearly 5,OO0,0OO cases of apples have been harvested, but not more than a million cases can be exported There will thus be left nearly 4,O00,- 900 cases of apples from these states alone, and Australia must either eat them or see them go to waste. There being some 100000 people in the Commonwealth, every man, woman and child in the country will have to eat an apple a day regularly for five months if the whole, unexportable har- vest is consumed.
