Colleges Seek to Retain
the Underpaid Professors

New York, Sept. 6.-Secrets Of
science, unless written into per,
manency, die with the brain and
humanity is so much the loser.
Feeling the situation keenly, a
number of leading educational insti-
tutions have embarked upon cam
paigns, which if successful, will
make a sufficient addition to their
endowments to repair their deficits,
and make salary increases for their
professors a Consummation of what
has long been devoutly wished.
At Harvard for instance, no in
creases have been allowed for 1}
years, the present scale having been
adopted in 1906. At that nstitu
ton, which is typical Of all, the max
mimum of service in sight for any
Professor, regardless of merit ant
length of service, has been $S,5OC
This is all too small, unless supple
mented from private sources, whic,,
is not the common experience.
Among the institutions which ar,
waging a campaign for money ar,
Columbia, Harvard, University O.
Pennsylvania, Cornell, Exeter
Mount Holyoke, Fordham and
Princeton. For the first time in
their history they are making a
general appeal to their graduates,
some of whom have become fam
Gus men since leaving school.
One hundred and fifty thousand
American college men went to war,
besides the greater number in the
army forces of this country, others
had posts in important administra-
tive and executive capacities. 1t is
common knowledge how we'll these
tasks were performed.
Peace has its problems, no less
than war. The world looks to its
educated men for their solution, and
if it is not to be denied, the colleges
must not be hindered i'll their great

So much has been said Of the
trials and hardships of the Ameri-

But there's another side.
Siberia Is He'll.
Mai. Gen. William S. Graves,
commander in chief, established at
Vladivostok, Siberia, can tell of it.
In fact, any officer or private of the
9th and 3lst infantry can verify
what the general has to say.
In a word Siberia is hell"
In October. 1918, the high COM
mand at Paris, perhaps answering
the dictates of Johnny Bull, de-
manded that a front" be estab-
lished in Siberia-that the bolshe
v;k and other "erring soldiers of
the late Gar Nicholas be checked
in their inspired advance on civili-
zation."
Shortly afterwards troops from
all allied nations were sent to in
wade that barren, ,~>eold, isolated
country, set up camps and prepare
to reinforce the wavering Czech
line in Siberia. The British and
French were first on the scene, but
were closely followed by the 3lst
United States infantry. Great Lakes

Help to Fight
Tuberculosis; Buy
Christmas Seals

The Christmas Seal campaign has
opened in earnest, and next week will
see the seven teams actively at work
at the various booths in Mariana.
Remember, the ladies in charge Of
this work are sacrificing valuable
time from other duties to leave their
homes these busy days to promote
the sale of these little Christmas
Seals, and it is asking little of the
public to have them buy the seals.
Even though you can not use all you
buy, bear in mind each penny spent
goes toward a splendid work. Not
splendid alone from a humanitarian
standpoint, but economically as we'll.
Therefore, when the campaign work
ers approach you be ready to con-
tribute as literally as possible to
this work.
Ninety per cent of the funds de-
rived from the sale of Christmas
Seals is used for tuberculosis work
in this state, and if our county sale
is large enough we will have full
time county nurse to help spread the
gospel of health in the county.
