The same thing can be said of Napol-

he never had an equal. There have
been great second basemen and there
are now. but they're no Lajoies.
John Evers is of the same general

him 70 inspired heights not attained by

which will be run over the Churchill
Downs course this afternoon. The field
will be the largest that has ever faced
the barrier in the Derby While eigh-
teen horses may not actually go to the
post, eighteen are entered. and the
Withdrawals will be mighty scarce be-
cause of the fair weather prevailing 1t
rained yesterday morning and the track
fob yesterday afternoon and the course
IS drying out speedily.
Every indication points to the fact
that today's Derby will be the greatest
ever contested. The best thorou ghbreds
that America and Europe could produce
are entered in the marathon, which is
worth $4,000 to the winner. There will
be an international flavor to the race
this time, where International rivalry
held sway in previous years.
Great Crowd on Hand.
People have been thronging to Louis
vile during the whole week and tonight
the hotels and streets are crowded with
turf fans who are talking nothing but
the Derby. 1t is a very open race. and
for that reason the bugs are having a
tough time trying to land upon one colt

the others.

looks as though the school of liberal
arts can for some time after the war
have little opportunity to grow in
Importance. The schools of engineer
ing, the schools of applied sciences
are likely to develop far beyond their
present status. The secondary
schools should feel the obligation Of
supplying as much as possible the
general culture which has heretofore
been furnished by the colleges of lib
eral arts. The colleges are likely
to become more definitely training
schools for the professors. The gen.
eral collegiate course will be COM
PEELED to introduce into its curricul-
UNI a larger element of practical adj
ministration, of sociology, of econ
omics.

work successfully. 1t would not be
surprising il the war marked the
end of the predominance of the class
les in English education, and before
many years the reorganization of
both schools and universities with
view to making them serve more eff
fectively the political and economic
aims of the nation.
The war will have a maneful effect
upon German scholarship. The over
supply of university-trained men in
Germany may, under certain condi-
tions, prove to be menace. 1t is not
improbable that after the war, when
its cost has been counted, and scrape-
goats have been found for the diplo-
matte failures, there will ensue a
period of radicalism. 1t is hardly
conceivable that the course of the
military party is going to meet with
universal approval. In the past the
university men have done a great
deal to further radical doctrines. To
be sure, conditions have changed AMI
the professors have, in a measure,
been taken into partnership with mill
tary men. They have done a great
deal to expound and popularize the

humanitarianism. There will be
other maladies to cure besides bodi-
ly ailments. We may expect sociolo-
gy to be placed on a more scientific
basis. 1t will have to occupy itself
with the question of caring for the
families that have been wrecked by
the war as well as for the men who
have been shattered in mind, body or
estate. 1t is difficult now to realize
the extent of the humanitarian work
that will have to be done; but we
shall have to regard it as a depart
ment OF study that will demand the
most thoughtful and expert atten-
ton.
fear the colleges and universities
may be forced, wisely or unwisely,
to set aside the pursuit of knowledge
as to a means of culture, and think
Of education as an intensely practi-
cal matter-not practical in the old
sense OF the word of teaching o
means Of earning a livelihood, but
practical in much broader way.
1t would seem that the department
of education that is likely to under.
go the greatest change in the near
future is the American college. 1t

tainly be modified. In the past Eng
lish education has given the impress
sion of being luxury of which every
gentleman should have liberal share
as a matter Of course. 1t is not har-
messed up with any grand national
project. 1t is safe to assume that
after the war England will adopt a
friendlier attitude toward technical
training, that the strongholds of
classicism will be shaken, that edu-
cation in general will have a more
definite purpose. England will find
herself occupied with the building up
and expansion of her industries, and
she will be forced to give to her
young men the opportunity of pre-
pairing themselves to carry on his

theories that have dominated Ger
many's internal and foreign policies,
and which have brought about the
present war. This applies, however,
especially to the men who have more
or less comfortable berths in the
universities, or to personages who
occupy posts in the educational sys-
TEN. They are committed to a policy
Of expansion. but there remains a
large class OF trained men for whom
the government is unable to care.
France has in recent years been
making the attempt to modernize
and render practical its educational
system very much more seriously
than has England. 1t is true that
the French scheme of education still
has very strong classical flavor.
There is something very literary, one
might say artistic, in the methods of
instruction which are employed by
French teachers. Yet, in spite of the
literary quality of much Of the
French instruction, France is turn
ing out engineers and scientific men
of great ability. Furthermore, she
is trying to make her schools meet
more fully the needs of the nation
than ever before. Recently there has
been strong effort made to teach
modern languages effectively, in or
der that she shall be at no dsadvant-
age in dealing with her neighbors.
The study of Russian has been pur-
sued conscientiously, but the results
are not all that the Russian alliance
with France might have demanded.
The training which France gives the
civil and other authorities who are
to govern the colonies is very thor
ough and extensive. She is trying
to meet the additional obligations
which her international position and
her colonial possessions are placing
upon her.
The United States will gain in
creased Importance in finance and
commerce, and also in international
policies, as a result of the war. Will
it gain in intellectual Importance?
Are we capable of selling this OPP
portunity to make American learning
secure an international significance?
Are the conditions of American edu-
cation such that he can become pre-
eminent in research? Most of the
great minds of this country have
been employed in practical affairs,
in bring ing to the surface and util-
izing and combining our natural re-
sources. The prizes have gone to the
men with executive genius. Pure
scholarship has not had a very large
place in the Americans scheme OF
things.
There many reasons for believing
that we shall enter upon q period of
industrialism when the struggle is
over. The unprecedented destruc-
ton of property which has taken
place has created, so to speak, an i'm
mense vacuum, which will have to
be filled from many quarters. Ameri-
ca will have large share in this re-
Mobilization. During the period of
commercial expansion it is hardly to
be expected that the impractical fea-
lures of education will receive much
attention.
In attempting to forecast changes
in education which may seem neces-
sary, now that we are in the midst
of very real danger, we must re-
