DO YOUR COWS EARN OR SPEND

when your cows come home what
will they bring?
will they bring home the means of
gaining pianos, automobiles, electric
lights, washing machines, books, trav-
ell. and education, or will they bring
disappointment, drudgery, and make
it difficult even to buy food and cloth
ing for the family? What the cows
bring home at night largely depends
upon the kind of man that opened the
gate, and the kind of animals he drove
to the pasture that morning"
This is the way that Noel Negley.
formerly in charge of COW testing
work in Wisconsin, sees the question
of making dairying pay by having
tested cows and pure-bred sires.
WAS the man who opened the gate
a business dairyman who makes good
use of the part of his anatomy above
his shoulders, or was he the other
kind, who, without cause, still exist :?
Did he open the gate and send down
workers or drones? We're the animals
that he sent out to manufacture milk
from the grass, hay and grain, bred
for that purpose, or did they just
happen?
Many dairymen do not know when
the cows come home what they bring
with them. In the last analysis, it is
for the dairyman himself to answer"

Wisconsin to the Rescue
of the Private COLLEGES

Within the last four years the pur-
chasing power of endowment revenues
has been diminished by one-half, while
college teachers, impoverished and suf-
fering, are everywhere clamoring for q
more adequate remuneration and are
deserving college teaching by thOus-
ands for Industrial employment New
er was expansion in buildings, equip
ment, and teachers so urgently called
ments SO costly or the colleges SO un-.
able to finance them.
No wonder that in this unparalleled
combination of emergency and oppor-
tunity the friends Of these keynote In
situations are everywhere organizing
for their relief. The Harvard alumni
are raising $11, 100000. The friends of
Princeton have set their figure at $14,-
100000. The Massachusetts Institute
OF Technology is raising 100000
Every institution not supported by

minished at the very hour of it's great.
est opportunity.
Wisconsin sets the pace for Virginia
as well as for the rest of the states
of the Union. Here the privately en-
lowed colleges of the state, regardless
of whether UNCONVENTIONAL or monde
nomiAational, Catholic or Protestant,
have joined hands to work out their
common problems. Today they are &C
quainting the people of the state with
their needs During the last week in
October they will appeal for 100000
to be distributed among the eight in
situations on basis of student hours
and to be used by them in increasing
the salaries of the members of their
faculties, in employing larger and
more competent faculties, in construct
ing new buildings and in getting mod

dowments.
Again Wisconsin leads the way.

BY DR.. HENRY LOUIS SMITH,
President, Washington and Lee Uni
verslty, Lexington, Va.

The marvellous rise to leadership of
during the world war, has silenced all
pre-war criticism of the American col
]ege. All are now enthusiastic in it's
praise as the nursery of American
leadership, not only in science and en-
cheering, but in morals and public
service. The next ten years will be
memorable as a period of unprecedent-
ed university growth and expansion.
In this benefcent rivalry of public
service there Is ample room and need
for all kinds of institutions, local and
national, Church and State, liberal and
technical.
One class, however, which has done
a notable work in the past, is peculiar
ly fitted to respond to the needs and
nurture the ideas of the national, non
sectarian, non-sectional era of cooper
alive democracy now before us. l re-
fer to the small group of institutions
which are independent and self-gov.
erning, free from party politics and
ecclesiastical control, independent. OF
Legislatures and State boundaries. In
the future, even more than in the past
they are to be the melting pot where
students of all sections and political
creeds will be fused into the new ide.
ais of tolerance and cooperation.
Yet this is the group now facing the
most serious financial emergency OF
their history. With no legislative ap
tot fov oh
organizations behind them, their finan
cial support has always come from the
voluntary contributions of their
friends and alumni. All who have
even a casual acquaintance with high.
ier education know the tuition fees
have never paid half the necessary ex
penses of such colleges and universe
ties. Their endowments have been
their chief source of revenue.

The readjuStmentS succeeding the
great War call for a careful review of
all social, civic, educational, political
and church organizations and activi-
ties. There will be a re-appraisal of
values and clearer understanding of
/ the legitimate character and quality
of the work assigned to every human
institution. The more important the
service rendered to society by the in
stitution, the more critical will be the
review of it's field of activity and the
Equality of the work which shall be per-
| formed. In as much as educational
institutions rank first in training intel
iligence and preparing leadership in
the business and in the ideals of life,
come under more detailed examina-
,tion than it has experienced hitherto.
Society will determine what. special
function should be performed by each
unit of its public and privately sup
ported systems of education. Agree
ment will be universal, that the objec-
tive of education Is to train for loyal,
devoted, and progressive citizenship.
This objective must be common to the
work of the graded schools, the high
schools, the normal schools, the State
University, and the privately endowed
colleges.
With the Strengthening of the pub
1icly supported educational units, we
must inquire what is the function of
privately endowed colleges, and are
they adequately evaluated? We can

COLLEGES LOSE TEACHERS
Poor Salaries Forcing Professors
to Abandon Teaching and to
Enter Business World.
BY DR.. WILLIAM T. FOSTER
President, Reed College, Portland,
Oreuon.

Our colleges have done their jobs
too well. They have trained men so
successfully that when they desire to
hold one of these men for their own
use, they can no longer do it. The
teacher finds that there are any num-
Der of positions awaiting him in the
world of business at salaries that are
very much higher than the maximum
that his college will ever be able to
pay him.
Large numbers of students who new
er thought of going to college before
the war are seeking higher education
and ale coming to our schools of high
er learning in great numbers. The
teaching stats, on the other hand are
smaller than they were before the war
Men have left to enter all branches of
service. and they are not coming back
to the poverty of teacher.
River Falls journal. [volume] (River Falls, Pierce County, Wis.) 1872-2019, 1919-10-02

The eight institutions which are
members of the Wisconsin Colleges
Associated have 442 men and women
on their faculties. How to hold these
teachers with such small salaries as
they can offer, is one of the serious
problems facing the Wisconsin college
president today.

This Pointer May
Save You Trouble

%Don't be too generous with the
distilled water when you're putting it
in batteries, says Mr.. o. r. Merrill,
local Willard expert. If you are,
you're likely to do just as much harm
as if you neglected to put any water
at all in.
Of course water is necessary, but
the idea is to put in just enough to
replace the amount that has evapor-
ated. If you put in more you're
getting into trouble in two ways;
you're weakening the battery and
worse than that you're taking the
first step toward running your bat
terry box.
IF the water remained in the bat
terry as water there would be no
chance of damage-but it doesn't. 1t
mixes right in with the acid.
Consequently if your battery is
too full the acid begins to slop out
at the top with the first hard jolt
and keeps spilling little by little un-
til the damage is done. This acid is
strong enough to eat thru wood or
iron, and will take the wooden bot
tom right out of the battery box.
you'll sidestep a lot of trouble
if you remember, when you add dis
titled water, to stop as soon as the
solution rises to half an inch over the
tops of the battery plates"

New Government War
Savings Certificates

Banks everywhere will soon have
for sale the new government 500
and $1,000 war savings certificates,
which combine every advantage to
investors now possessed by war saw
ings stamps, according to an an
nouncement just received from the
United States treasury department
by Allen B. Eaton war savings di-
rector for Idaho.
These certificates are issued in re-
Spouse to widespread demand for
such, and mark the development of
the governments plan of saving in
vestments which can now be had in
denominations from 25 cents, the
price of thrift stamp to $1,000.
Same as Savings Stamps
Bearing the same rate OF interest
as war savings stamps, these new
new certificates will mature, also,
on the same date-January /, 1924.
They are redeemable in cash on the
same terms, have the same. tax eX-
emptions, and in addition are regis
tered and non-transferab BILE, thus pro-
tecting them from loss or theft.
Without cost a 1913 war savings
certificates with the full quota of
twenty war savings stamps can be
exchanged for a new 500 (maturity
value) certificate or ten of these
filed certificates will be received for
$1,000 certificate, or the savings
certificates may be bought direct.

of it. Where there is sweet clover
they lay out the stalks or punches Of
