 We arc living at such q. swiGt pats just now and amid so many dangers and anXicties, besides an ilfllitc num- OCT of gay. diversions. that our ,inle for hard thinking and the putting Of pertinent questions is necessarily limited.

 To the philosophic mind the spec tacle of devoted and conscientious parents sending their offspring to boarding school and college without asking what they are to be taught Is but another proof that jud gment has fled to Drutish beasts. Y ct it is a mat ter of commo on. knowledge that even our leading universities are not free from the malign influence that is poisoning the whole social fabric of the nation. The various chairs Of social science and economics in Wom- ems colleges as well as in those for men are too often given over to the matching Of ideas which in their fruiton be2omc a, menace to our civilization. The disscm ination Of German propaganda did not cease when the armistice was declared. It merely acquired q new cunning. What better vehicle for the spreading or dangerous and disloyal theories than a scattcrbraincd professor with d store Of transformation 10 impart and scores of immature minds to receive il?

Casket 12O Years in Making.

The casket used in the recent fu-
neral Of Grand Prince VI Of Korea was
fashioned 120 years ago and was coat
ed with black lacquer two and half
inches thick, states the Seoul Press.
In Korea it has been custom from
olden times to keep various sizes OF
collins in the ChOsei (Long Life) pal
ace, and to apply new coat of lacquer
twice each year, in spring and autumn.
Thus the lacquer gains in thickness
with each generation. Before being
placed in the casket the grand princes
body was bathed in sandalwood water
by court ladies, then dressed success
sively in an ordinary Korean dress, a
military uniform and q court robe.
Then it was wrapped in linen, next
with silk wadding and once more In

dressed In knickerbockers, wearing

asked If Admiral GraysOn would have
some tea.
"'No, never dring tea, replied Ad-
miral Grayson.
Something eIse?' queried the serv-
ant.
mo doubt rejecting on the dry con-
ditions rapidly spreading through the

piled:
"'Well yes. 1 would like little

MANY COLLEGE
TEACHERS HOLD
RADICAL VIEWS
Government Official to Give
Their Names to Commit
tee Investigating
Propaganda.

Washington, Jan. 22.-Archibald
Stevenson of New York, rep
resentatiye of the military intelli-
gence service, testifying today be-
fore the senate propaganda investi-
eating committee, declared a large
number of professors in American
colleges and universities sub
scribed to radical and pacihst views.
This, he said, was particularly true
of professors and instructors in So
GEOLOGY, economics and history.
The witness said he would give
the names of such professors to the
committee.
Senator King Of Utah remarked
that it was time to weed out and
drive out of our university these
pernicious teachings"
The committee decided to discuss
in executive session whether the
namest of the professors should be
made public.
Referring to the Ford peace par
ty Mr.. Stevenson said Rosika
Sehwimmer, who aided in the
movement, and accompanied the
peace ship to Europe, undoubtedly
was German agent.
The Nonpartisan league was
characterized as pacihst move
ment. Mr.. Stevenson said the or
ganization was financed by the dues
of its members, some of which were
paid in cash and others in notes,
which money was advanced by
Rudolph Pagenstacher, a New
York banker.

Another Peace Envoy
For United States
May Be Appointed

Paris, Jan, 22-WhiIe the peace
congress is getting into action the
question of President Wilson nam
ing fifth delegate to act on the
American mission when he, himself,
departs for home has again arisen and
the names of William H. Taft and
Elihu Root have been mentioned. Mr..
Wilson's decision as to the appoint
ment of another delegate depends
wholly upon whether he will con-
slider it necessary to return to
Europe after the adjournment of the
American congress in March. There
is absolutely no question that he
feels he must return to America in
time to sign bills that have been
passed at Washington, He has no
thought of signing them here, on the
theory that the embassy is Ameri-
can territory.
