EDUCATION GOES DOWN HILL

(From the Chicago Herald and EXaminer)
Colleges this fall East and West are re-
porting an enormous registration. Here
in Chicago, Northwestern and the Univer-
sity of Chicago have both the largest UNI
dergraduate attendance in their history.
The professional schools are also crowd
ed But except in the department of sci
ence the graduate schools are not large.
In some cases, indeed. they are smaller
than usual.
The reason Is not far to seek. Tho
graduate students of science are in many
cases planning to go into business. Chem
lstry, botany and geology in particular
offer attractive opportunities. But in such
fields as economies modern languages,
history and philosophy. the graduate
school leads either to teaching or 10 moth
ing. And the great mass of our abiest
young men in this country to-day are con-
WINGED that teaching and nothing are one
and the same, as far AS prospects go.
They may be wrong. There are to-day
the same compensatons inherent in the
teaching profession that there always
were It gives "A certain dignity, a GER
tain leisure. certain opportunity to
satisfy the heart that inquiries for truth.
And these are very real rewards to some.
But the last rev years, Hoeeu the last
few months, have driven home the belief
that the ordinary college teacher does not
get pay enough to bring up a family
decently, They have convinced young
men that when a college teacher proposes
marriage he is offering the girl of his
heart gold brick. He is neither purely
selfish nor in love with celibacy.
Therefore he makes up his mind TO do
anything except teach and when he asks
older teachers for advice they are half
hearted in setting forth the advantages
Of their own profession.
What this means exactly is that the
next generation will not be trained as
we'll as the last. II means that education
will go down hill, And nation in which
education goes down hill Is a nation that
Is going down hill altogether

THE PRINCES HOME IN CANADA

The Prince Of Wales is evidently very
much at home In Canada. Indeed he has
given evidence of this feeling by purchas-
ing a ranch in the Far West: 81 think
the western spirit must be very catching"
the Prince had said in the course of his
speech, 'at least ] know I've caught 1t
badly. ! feel so much at home here by
this time that ] want to have perna-
nent home amongst the people Of the
West, place where I can come sometimes
for a while. To this end. recently pur-
chased a small ranch in southern Alberta.
and I shall look forward to developing it
and making it my own"
That the young Prince Of Wales has a
far-reachng appreciation of the serious
side of the situation following the war with
Germany is evident from this utterance
four western provinces played as impor-
tant part In the great war as all the
other provinces of Canada and the other
Dominions of the Empire, but despite the
TACT mat we won the war, 1t has LETT n
great social. economic and political
problem behind It, and Brltishers have
got to put their shoulders to the wheel
In the Empire to solve these problems
successfully. but know you are doing
this in western Canada as 1t is being done
throughout the empire, and the splendid
determined spirit by which we won the
war will carry us successfully through
the critical times in which we now live
We may not sec our way quite clearly
now, but we will find a way through as
we have always done in the past"
That determination to go on in some way
with the solution of the problem facing
the world is thoroughly characteristic Of
the British as a type 1t was that spirit
which helped to win the war. That spirit,
whether exemplifled IN Britain or America,
Is the one that will help to reach a sue
cessful solution Of the vast problems
which at time seem we'll nigh over

WOOL PRODUCERS LOSERS.
(From Daily Financial America

(From Daily Financial America.)
England's determination to rebuild
her manufacturing Industries are seen
in the imports of wool during the pres
emit year. For six months these are
double the amount brought into the
country during the same period in 1913
when the country was locked in the
death grapple with the Hun.
The total of 1.6S8,OO0 bales is small
compared with the great supply requir-
ed in pre-war days for the textile in
dustries Of the country. but 1t shows
the ministry OF reconstruction is max
ing progress in obtaining raw ma
terials. chiefly from the British South
Seas Dominions, for these WOODEN In
dustrtes. At the same time, as our own
manufacturers have complained, these
materials are not made available for
their own use though abundant stores
have been accommodating In Australia
and New England during the last five
years.
Apparently it is the producer in these
British colonies who is the chief loser
through the policy Of holding back sup
plies Of raw material from the markets
Of the world for another year, 80 that
the English manufacturer can be sup
piled first. The tendency, of course, is
to hold wool production in the world
is beginning for more clothing, and all
because the British manufacturer Ia
not able to use this raw material. One
result, OF course, is to drive the con-
sumner more and more to the use of
cotton garments and make a wider mar
ket for this material in the production
of which America leads the world.

FARMERS UNITE TO FIGHT RATS

A fund Of over $500 has been raised
TO fifh rats in Palm Beach county, Flor
ida. The rodents in that region have
multiplied with such rapidity that some
farmers fear rs per cent. of their pota-
toes and peanuts have been DESTROYED
Owing to the extent of the territory over
which the pests have bene roaming, moth
ing short Of "a widespread cooperative ac-
ton could be effective; consequently, the
local county agent has taken the matter
in hand. After survey of the territory.
he laid out a systematic offensive cam
paign. Under his directions the farmers
have undertaken to place poison with
various sorts of bats all along the lake
front on specified days
Much Of the region covered in this
fashion is grown up with weeds or is
still uncleared. and, therefore, the task
is of considerable magnitude. However,
1t is anticipated that the fall crops will
benefit decidedly by the campaign and
that the expenditure of the fund, which
was contributed by local business men,
will prove profitable investment

MAGAZINE WITHOUT TYpEsETrERs

An old saying is that necessity is the
mother of invention. The latest illustra-
ton of this adaye is afforded in con-
nection with the strike of outlaw printers
in New York. involving most of the
magazines and other periodicals publish
ed in the metropolis
Il will be recalled that some of the type
settlers decided to take vacations" with
of their employers, as one means of
conducting a "sympathetic strike" for
the benefit of the outlaw pressman who
struck or were shut out.
The possibilities of publishing a
magazine without typesetters became
apparent, when a copy of the October IS
issue Of one Of the leading periodicals
just come off the press, was exhibited
The whole magazine of so pages is
ing the original typewritten COPY.
The makeup of the magazine is
changed in no way, the only difficulty be-
ing that the style of type is that used on
typewriters and is uniform throughout.
Moreover, the right hand side of each
column is irregular as in ordinary type
written copy
This is what the publishers say: "A
magazine issued without typesetters
'How this number was issued without
compositors will be readily understood
by those familiar with modern typogra-
phical practice"
Since typewriting letters and characters
are made 10 represent almost every con-
ceivab,e type it will not be at all strange
II typewriter letters to resemble news
paper type, are one If the developments
growing out Of the printers strike in
New York. Under these circumstances
photography and caligraphy may COM
bne to form substitute for high priced
typesetting and printing.

NEW PROCESS KILLS GERMS IN
LIQUID FOOD WITH FIFTY
TON PRECSyJRE

To crush the life out Of disease germs.
or the kinds that inhabit milk and other
liquid foods. takes a pressure of 10000 to
loo,Vo pounds to the square inch. The
chemical expert OF a West Virginia col
lege in discovering this fact, found also
how to apply such pressures to liquids,
las described and illustrated in the
October Popular Mechanics Magazine.
1t is found that the malefcent bacteria
In milk are wholly destroyed by pres
sures considerably lower than 100000
pounds. while the beneficent engines are
UNAFFECTED, as the pressure is applied at
normal temperatures. For much Of this
work 10000 pounds, applied 20 minutes. is
found adequate.
The commercial application of the pres
sure method of sterilization will solve the
vital problem of making liquid foods pure
and "keepable." That means relief from
those sinister records of infant mortality.
so much of the responsibility for which
rests upon the bacteria of disease and
decay in milk, The germs Of diphtheria
and typhoid, known to thrive in milk,
are among the first to succumb to the
application Of pressure, and tine process
rendering them innocuous would there
fore be positive and reliable.
