STUDENT COSTS s641.60 YEAR
Tuition Expense TO Princeton UniVer-
atty, for Which He Pays
But S174.

Princeton. y J.-President John
Greer Hibben Of Princeton university
authorized the following statement:
At the request Of the university au-
thorities, Treasurer H G. Duttield Of
Princeton has just completed study
Of the actual cost to the university Of
educating a student.
The figures show that for the years
1912 to 1917 II cost an average Of
S641 80 annually to educate an under
graduate. Toward this the student
paid an average of STA in tuition fees.
Thus. a student who attended Prince
ton received, in effect, an actual gift
from the university each year of serv-
ices and work involving an outlay on
the part Of the university over and
above the amount the student paid
Of S467.
The statement asserts no increase in
tuition fees is contemplated.

Few Town Crlers left

There are hardly any town criers
left In England now. At WycOmbe, this
post, which has been held by members
of one family for 80 years, lapses with
the resignation Of the present holder.
"Oyez! oyez! oyezW and the" ringing
OF the bell will cease to be heard In
the little old town, as 1T has ceased to
he heard In many towns within the last
ten years. In rural districts of France,
by the way, public proclamations are
made by the "garde champetre," kind
OF keeper, or village policeman, whose
Office embraces various functions. Evi-

HOLDS MYSTERY AND HORROR
Which Can Only Come From
Civilizations Light.

Tibet, the mysterious land to the
north Of India, has got no wheeled We
hicles, and the grand lama is carried
in q sedan chair. Punishments are
cruel. Men are cut to pieces slowly.
Women suspected Of adultery have
their noses and lips slit and then are
whipped to death.
Newborn babies are plastered over
with butter and then laid in the sun
naked. Ears are pierced and heavy
rings inserted which often tear out the
lobe Of the ear.
The limbs and trunks Of the dead
are hacked apart and left on stones
for the dogs, pigs and vultures to de
YOUR. The pigs are I'm turn q table

The "breakers of the dead" are also
the scavengers Of the country. They
live in filthy huts four feet high, built
OF human bones and the horns OF
cattle.
Yet the POtata, the seat Of the
Tibetan ruler Is a magnificent white

FRENCH HELD IN PRISONS
Captive Returned From Germany
Tells of Being in Solitary confine-
ment in Fort.

DijOn, France.-Germany still re-
taips French prisoners of war in close
confinement, 1t is claimed by Louis
Poucher, French volunteer, who was
taken prisoner in 1913. and returned
to his home here recently.
h declared that he, with two COM
rades, was tried before a court-martial
for attempting to escape, and was SEN
fenced to ten years Imprisonment In
a fortress. He was taken to Danzig,
and the others were sent to Koenigs-
berg. The French mission from Ber-
lin which visited the Danzig fortress
discovered, according to Boucher, sew
eral prisoners In solitary confinement,
and had them released. Boucher was
among them. French war Office rec
ords had carried the word "disap-
peared" against his name.

pose the gift, saying with some rea-
son that America has given enough.
No matter how much we have given,
it will not save some millions of peo-
pie from the misery that confronts
them now 1t is to our own interest
to help preserve Poland, and while we
owe nothing to Austria and have al
ready helped Armenia beyond the
limit, we should not let their peoples
starve if we can help it. But it's our
opinion that this handout should be
the last. With the beginning of
spring, the nations should go to work
SO they will have harvests for autumn.
America cannot feed them any longer,
for beside our needing our food. cloth
ing and money for ourselves con-
tinued charity will pauperize rather
than help other peoples.

Joe Earman of the Palm Beach Post
has three jobs on hand. His town
needs a Y. W. C. A; it wants the
French Grand Opera Troupe Of New
Orleans, the most classy musical ag-
gregation in the United States, to stop
there and sing on it's way from Cuba;
and it's library wants thousand dol
lars worth of new books. In these en-
terprises Joe will be not only a leader
but one of the wheelhorses. Joe is a
journalistic Robin Hood. He sep
arates the plutocracy from its coin for
the benefit of the proletariat, and does
it in such way as to make the plutes
enjoy being held up. P. S.-Any man
who has ten dollars he has no immed-
late need for looks like plutocrat to
Joe.

by every man standing up and sup
porting what he knows to be honest
and right.

Holland having refused to give up
the ex-emperor of Germany, he will
probably remain safe until the end of
his miserable life if he stays on Dutch
soil. There is no fault to be found
with the Dutch. They probably have
Nc more use for the old villain than
Americans have. but they are acting
strictly up to their international
rights in refusing to give up man
who has sought refuge on their soil
for political reasons. There is little
probability of the Allies forcing the
Hollanders to give William up. They
could do it. but an invasion of Holland
by the Allies would be something like
the invasion of Belgium by the Ger
mans. 1t is a pity, however. the AL
lies did not make William a prisoner
during the last days of the war. The
spectacle of his imperial majesty
dangling at the end of rope would be
a great encouragement to future ty-
rants.

Margaret dillingham;. an English ex-

q hawker's license, then a caravan and
finally q stock Of women's small wares,
and now they are travelling from town
to town in England, dispensing their
wares along the way.
According to Miss Fillingham, they
have made a hit. Their rural and
small town sisters promise them their
patronage and invite them 10 call regu-
larly.
1t seems that a carpenter hit upon
the same plan, for they tell of meeting
him In their travels, pursuing his trade

If the Allies offer the mandatory
for Armenia to Holland and the Dutch
accept the Office, it will probably prove
a good arrangement all around. Hol-
land is a small nation, and the other
nations would not have the jealousy
for it that they would have for a
great power. The Dutch have also
proven themselves excellent diplomats,
and in the far east they manage with
very little trouble colonies containing
a population of forty millions, made
up largely of some of the most tur-
bulent peoples on earth. If the Ar
menians can be given a few years rest
from oppression they can build up a
strong nation of their own and their
troubles may come to an end.

There is a classic poem called
"Young's Night Thought" which was
much read by the highbrows of fifty
and sixty years ago. We would rather
read Thorn's night thoughts, which we
are glad to see are reappearing in the
Palm Beach Post. Thorn has been
sick, but the castor oil he has alb
sorbed has cleared his brain and his
thoughts will now more than ever
shine like stars in the armament.
