NEW YORK, Oct. 1S.-Charles A..
Beard, professor Of politics at Column
bia University, has resigned because,
he said, the University is under con-
troll Of a small and active group Of
trustees who have no standing in the
world Of education, who are reaction
airy and visionless in politics, narrow
and medieval in religion.
1T these were ordinary times" Pro-
lessor Beard wrote, lone might more
readily ignore the unhappy position in
which the dominant group in the
board of trustees has placed the
teachers. but these are not ordinary
times. We are in the midst Of a great
war and we stand on the threshold Of
an era which. will call for all the
emancipated thinking that America
can command"
At a meeting of the trustees Of Col
umbia last Monday the professorships
held by James McKeen Cattell, of the
department Of psychology and Henry

Rev. Strong told Of his intimate &C.

Dustin Farnum is the star in the
Pallas-Paramount picture ''Davy
Crockett" but his fine work is al
most equalled by the remarkable act.
ing of a hitherto little known actor.
This player has appeared in several
other screen successes but has never
before been given a part worthy of
his exceptional ability. This player is
a. perfect specimen of a full grown
cinnamon bear and has coat like
velvet.
In all the scenes which this per-
former appears he stars, if a bear
could ever be said to star. Whether it
is only to frighten the sleeping color
ed boy in the canoe or to perform the
delicate task of springing genuine
bear-trap the work is accomplished
in a faultless manner.
The remarkable intelligence Of this
animal and his comical actions add
much to the attraction Of this excep-
tional and differently told romance of
the frontier. This photoplay is com.
ing Sunday to the Sunbeam.

it's campaign of ruthlessness on eight
hours notice after months of assur-
ances that she had no intention of TAX
ing such a step.
The statement that Germany in her
Sussex note reserved a new course of
action is declared wholly uniustified.
The United States specifically refused
to accept that condition, and in defaul,
of any reply from Germany. was JUS
titled in believeing that Germany ad-
hered to her point of view. In diploma
cy the last note between two nations
is the binding note and stands in all
particulars until denied by one or the
other.
The chancellor's complaint that he
had received only Reuters despatch
and a verbal statement to the foreign
minister as to the causes of the break
recalls that a note setting out the rea-
sons for the action of the United States
was handed to Count Won Bernstorff

Wilson for announcing an embargo on

rect. The cases are held to be in no

Reichstag.
State department officials are amaz-

which they say are palpably opposed
to the most obvious events of recent
history.
The cEancellor's statement that the
United States severed relations
"brusquely" is viewed as too absurd
for discussion 1t is pointed out that
the American correspondence had
plainly threatened such action, that
Count Won Bernstorff had said for sew
