Much az may be T., dcrogatory to

there Is at lcast something in the study.

was demonstrated by DR.. Luz at the
High school when he picked out OF tho
audience Of young people those pos
sessine certain traits of character. Tho
speaker spoke to a very attentive audi
ence and some Of those who were
skeptical about the question Of phren-
ology were forced TO admit that the
subject Is more nearly an accurate
science than they had supposed.
Announcement has been made by Dr..
Lutz that he will deliver a lecture at
the Christian church next Monday
night on the same subject. This ad-
dress, which will be free of charge,
will attract a large audience OF those
interested in the subject Of vocational
guidance. DR.. Lutz docs not claim that
he can absolutely say man Will mako
q success as, for instance. in medicine
but he does claim that he can tell ap-
proximatcly whether man is fitted

enter into the creation Of career that
q positive guarantee could not be made.
| A demonstration Of the use Of phren'
ology in fixing vocational aptitude Will
be the object Of the address. The meet
ing will begin at o'clock.

GARFIELD AND NATURAL RESOURCES

Harry A. Garfield, though retir-
ing from the dictatorship of the United
States fuel administration, remains in
the public eye by reason of his con-
nection with d possible program of
governmental activities in connection
with natural resources.
President Wilson is expected to
present to congress program which
will provide for government associa-
ton in the development of coal, oil and
gas resources. His plan is not one of
outright government ownership, it is
said, but one which cOntemplateS a
supervision and direction which will
make impossible privately owned mo-
nopOlies of these natural resources.
For some time Doctor Garfield has
been working out plan for the presi-
dent. The purpose, it is understood,
would be to obtain a more equitable
distribution of these necessities of in
dustrial life and eliminate the capita

been in effect. Practically the greater

RATIFICATION WITH RESERL
WALTON

Confusion has naturally marked the
discussion of the covenant of the So
ciety of Nations. The subject is new
and vast The public has been con
sidering not merely an idea, but doc
ument of many details. Men have
to emphasize partial truths, and thus
to lose sight of the whole, or to seem
to do so.
But a basis for solid judgment seems
maturing. This judgment promises tC
be, first, that there is enough good in
the covenant to warrant it's general
acceptance, and second, enough weight
in the criticisms lodged against it tC
require it's qualification when accept
ed. The conclusion naturally follows
that there should be notifications, but
notifications with reservations.
What good is in the instrument that
doubts should be construed in its ia
yor? 1t is the provision under which
international conferences will period
ically assemble In itself this may be
small thing; but it may have big in
direct effects.
Heretofore when a crisis has arisen
it has been necessary to Wrangle over
whether a conference should be held
Sir Edward Grey believes if he had
secured a conference in 1914 no war
would have occurred.
At league conference each nation
represented by delegates who in fact
will be ambassadors, may do as 1t
pleases. The unanimity rule secures
this liberty. But it will be constrained
to send ambassadors, though it with
draw them the next day.
What is the bad of the covenant
which needs to be guarded against? In
brief, it is the implied departure from
the sound traditional rule that we
keep out of foreign entanglements and
nreserye intact our national sOver-
eighty. So reservations are needed
in the ratifying esOlution-reserva-
tons which shall, among other things
/. Preserve the Monroe doctrine.
Q Keep us out of quarreles not our
concern.
3. Lift the indefinite obligations of
Article X.
Ratification with reservations is &C
c0rding to American practice. The
books are full of supporting prece-
dents. 1t is a method which has the
merits that would flow from formal
amendment, while free Of the Objec-
ton that amendments would need to
be submitted to the other powers, thus
perhaps delaying the peace. 1t is IN
ternationaI custom to accept without
new negotiations interpretations which
declare how a nation understands it's
pledges.
The President would scarcely reject
a ratification thus qualified. To do
so would lodge with him responsibility
for delaying the peace. AS to the
other powers, their assent may be
safely assumed. They have indicated
their willingness to follow Americas
lead in peace league matters.
The American people have no wish
to surrender their independence, their
liberty of action, when new questions
arise. At the same time the evidence
is that they are willing to associate
themselves with other nations for
peace maintenance. The two claims
are reconcilable-at least, it is posi-
BILE to save the good in the covenant
and at the same time. avoid the bad.
The periodic conference principle
would seem to be worth solving, and
it may be that by use and wont the
practice of acting in concert will de-
