Princeton Restricts Enrolment

The announcement of Princeton university
that it would hereafter restrict its enrolment to
1000 students was distinct surprise, inasmuch
as most universities seek to increase instead of
limiting their student roll.
Princeton is seeking to attain high degree
of scholarship within the limited number of sub
jects that will be taught. It's leaders evidently
believe that there is a field for an institution
that restricts its curriculum and invites only
students who are intensely interested in these
branches. By this method Princeton hopes to be
able to confer degrees upon students who have
attained real proficiency. A premium is set on
scholarship.
The many departments offered by some uni
versities preclude selected enrolment, as the
very multiplicity of studies offered brings with
it large enrolment. There is distinct place in
the American educational field for universities of
this type, which, differing from Princeton and
its restricted enrolment, insist on high scholar
ship as a prerequisite for degree.
Princeton's new policy invites attention to
the advantages which many small colleges offer.
They may not offer abundance of courses, but
the curriculum nevertheless is broad enough to
include the essentials which young man and
woman needs. With small enrollments, as COM
pared with the big institutions, professors are
able to give more attention to the individual
student the result being that the training which
the student receives often is superior to that of
the larger schools.
Many small colleges, Earlham, for instance,
have national regulations for their scholarship
and for the ability of their graduates. Small
classes, with the close supervision of the profess
sors in charge, account in small degree for the
proficiency of the men and women who annually
are added to the roll of graduates.
-.
our educational system, and it's development
within certain restrictions should not be over
looked or neglected. We must always have great
universities where the accumulated knowledge
of the world is preserved on large scale and ex-
tensive research work carried on, but the small
college also has well defined function in train
ing our youth and preparing them for life.

FROST ING

WHEN Wally Woodchuck and his

brown, rccky mountain, it hadn't
rained for days and days, and they
hadn't had a drink for dear knows

Wally. 1--WE have a few more feet
to climb, then we can taste the white
frosting that seems to be 50 thick ev-
erywhere, and start back home. One
thing sure, Mr.. Sprinkle-Blow has
kept his promise about the rain. Not
a drop since we left"
Wally took 4 few more steps and
reached the white stuff that he
thought was frosting and dug his
face down to take a large bite. Sud
denly he gave a whistle Of delight.

WHAT we need most of all now is
a cash market for our products.
Until that is obtained Investigation
will never become a reality in the
measure and with the success that it
should. The erection here Of a grain
elevator, where the fatmer could
bring his corn, cats, wheat, peas, vel
vet beans, peanuts and sell it at once
for cash at the prevailing market
price, would do more to eliminate the
peril Of cotton from Sumter county
than any one thing. The elevator
provides the sure and certain mar
ket. for it is the buyer and shipper,
in touch with the nations markets,
and when the farmer knows he has a
certain cash market for his products
he will produce those products, just
as he now is forced to produce cot
ton because it is the only certain
cash crop available to him.
Sumter county's greatest need at
this time is a cash market for grain
an6 field products other than Gotten.
An elevator will provide it. And an
elevator will pay profits just as they
do in the North and West.

THE PEOPLE of Kansas City have
shown what an outraged public
sentiment can accomplish when gem
timely aroused, in spite Of the negi-
gence of public officials.
During the early part of 1920,
criminals of all sorts overran the city,
causing veritable reign of terror.
Finally the leading citizens organiza-
tons decided that the only way to get
relief was to take things into their
own hands
A law enforcement association was
organized, its watchword being:
Clean Ur Kansas City,
There has been a steady improve
ment in the situation ever since.
During the first five months of 1920
there were 10 murders and 1888
burglaries. During the same period
in 1921 there were but nine murders
and 695 burglaries, about SO per-
cent cut in these two classes of
crime
Highway robberies and auto thefts
show a like decrease.
There seems to be no good reason
why the people of Americas or any
other town cannot do what the people
Of Kansas City have done if they act
with the same energy and intelli-
pence.
