ENGLISHLIYERATURE
LEADSAT HARVARD.
373 Upper Classmen Choose
1t as Their Field Of Con-
centratiOn.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass, Nov. 26.--Figures
Just compiled by the committee on the
choice of electives show that English
literature heads the elective courses.
with economics second. A total of 37S
Harvard upper classnnen have chosen
English as their field of concentration,
and therefore at the close OF their senior
year must take their general examina-
ton for graduation on their work In
this field. There are 302 men concen-
trating in economics. IFS In Romance
languages, l60 in chemistry and 134 in
history.
Comparison OF these figures with those
OF recent years shows several interesting
changes. In 1914 economics led in popu-
larity. with English second. In that year
there were approximately four men spe-
cializing In economics for every three
specializing in English. Beginning with
the class OF 1917, however, men concen-
trating in the division of history. gov
ernment and economics were required
to take general examination for grad
uation, and this requirement had the ef-
feet Of discouraging many men from con-
centrating in economies. English then
took the lead.
Since then the general examination
has been extended. so that next spring
seniors concentrating in other subjects
also will have to pass such "a test in
order to get their degrees. Every senior
save those whose special work is IN
mathematics or the natural sciences is
now included The test for men concen-
trating in English. in Romance and
other modern languages and in the
classics will include an examination on
Shakespeare and the Bible.
Another change is the increase in the
popularity OF Romance languages. Last
year this subject stood fourth. with IT'S
concentrators. while chemistry was third
with 200. This year the positions are
reversed
The complete figures for the year,
showing how many men are concentrat-
ing In each subject, are as follows:

INCREASE IN TUITION
TO HELP TEACHERS.
Necessity of Salary Raise Is
Impressed on Undergrad
yates at Yale.

Special Despatch to THE New York HzsnD.
NEW HAVEN, Nov. 25.--That tuition
in American colleges and universities
should be raised to meet increases that
are imperative in PROFESSIONAL salaries is
the gist of statement made to Yale
students to-day by julius III. Barnes,
chairman of the Institute OF Public Ser
vice, which is seeking to improve the lot
of professors and instructors in this
country.
How can higher education" asks Mr..
Barnes. "be demoeraticaliy extended to
every young American who Is able and
anxious to benefit from it unless we stop
paying college teachers half of what
they ought to get and stop charging coll
lege students half of what their educa-
ton costs?
although Yale figures in our report
as paying the largest maximum, S1O,-
600. few sons of Yale could have failed
to realize that, generally speaking. col
lege professors are grievously under
paid. Conditions are not so bad as
they were; of 2S9 colleges reporting to
us 243 have increased maximum salaries
for professors since 1914. Although
many Of these increases have been but
a
a condition that needs to be changed.
Yale has the distinction of having de-
cided to increase its salaries even before
It knew where the money would come
from. Having stated the higher sums
needed 1t then told les alumni a big
enough story TO bring a big total OF
gifts. But even Yale has not raised
what must be put into college teachers
If students are to get what Yale prom
lses to give.
Although 253 of 2S9 colleges reported
tuition increases almost nowhere are
students even now paying half what they
cost.
"As I looked over these two sets OF
facts showing that college teachers are
being paid less than they need for a
growing wage and that college students
are paying less for tuition than it costs
suggested that two sources Of addi-
tionai income be discussed and possibly
tried:
II. Pay as you go tuition for those
who can afford to pay all 1t costs to
teach them.
"o. Deferred payments on promissory
notes of the amounts which students
cannot pay until after they begin to
learn.
IF you could not pay more than you
are paying---if you are not spending in
luxuries moro than Yale Is giving to you
in rebated tution--wonld you rather
give up your life at Yale and Its oppor-
tunities than promise to pay back the
difference between your tuition and Its
actual cost when your earning power
permits?
II am particularly glad to have this

DAVIES CO. FARMER
STAYS ARMED BANDIT


Greensboro KY, Feb. 15.-The in
cessant barking Of a dog tonight at
the home of Alfred Frey, a farmer,
residing eight miles south of Owens
boro, caused Mr.. Frey to tell his lit
tie girl to open the door and see who
was in the yard.
When the child opened the door
two men were standing few feet
from the house, with leveled guns.
On of the men opened fire on Mr..
Fry, wounding him in the abdomen.
His wife quickly brought a pistol
which she gave to her husband Altho
painfully wounded, he rushed out Of
the house and opened fire on tie two
men. One of the men fell at the.frst
shot. Two more bullets were fird
into his body as he made an effort to
rise to his feet. AS he fell to the
ground second time, Mr.. Frey start
ed in pursuit of the other intruder,
but lost sight of him in the darkness,
altho he shot at him.
Mr.. Frey was taken to the home Of
his father-in-law, Buck Baird on an
adjoining farm, and DR.. Westerfield
summoned. A large crowd of farm
ers shortly arrived at the Frey home,
and posse started in a search of the
man 1ybo M do bio acoona
The man who was shot and killed
wore a belt buckle with the name, &c.
Peach" engraved on it. Mr.. Frey
did not see the dead man, but said a
farm hand named Ernest Peach for
merly worked for him, and he would
be able to identify him. Il is said
Peach had recently returned from the
army. Mr. Frey is 45 years of age.
He has a wife and two young chill
dren. He is highly respected in the
Utica neighborhood, where he was
born and reared. He is veteran Of
the Spanish-American War At a
late hour tonight the posse in search
of the dead mans companion had
found no trace of him. %
Blood hounds were used Wednes-
day in an attempt to run down
Peach's accomplice, but the trail was
lost in a public road, apparently
where the man had entered some sort
of vehicle. Diligent search was still
being made for the escaped party,
but at last information he had not
been apprehended. Mr.. Frey, 1t is
said is not seriously injured and his
recovery is almost certain.
