about the embassy and the police have
offered bodyguard TO the American dip

bassador TO Paris, increased the anxiety
here. Italian Communists are demanding

E Although they are the shrines Of tradition,
colleges are given TO making experiments. The
Williams Institute of Politics and Bryn Mawr
summer school for working girls are not the
least interesting. The Pennsylvania institution
made it possible for 81 working girls, gathered
from various parts Of the country, to enjoy
college life for two months They lived i'll
dormitories, had fudge played tennis and at
tended lectures just like any college girls. One
OF these fortunate girls Miss Louise Beau
champ OF Kansas City, forewoman in soap
factory whose education halted in the eighth
grade. Miss Beauchamp is back in the factory
again, admitting that she did not get an edu-
cation in eight weeks, but owning up TO having
gotten coed deal out of her college course.
Having that altrusm which is the dover of
generous youth, Miss Beauchamp says that she
fellow workers and help them in every way
possible Sentimentalists may imagine Miss
Beauchamp carrying out her intention through
the medium of night schools, domestic science
classes and chaperoned dances. But on being
asked how she would seek to aid her sisters
Miss Beauchamps prompt reply was: I'D
unionize them and work for better hours and
better pay. This will be enough to convince
some people that Miss Beauchamp's college
course was wasted. But it is apparent that
the young woman was honest and practical
minded 1t is useless to deny that whatever
may have been unionism's sins of bigotry and
aggression, it has materially improved the lot
OF wage earners. Miss Beauchamp probably
did not have to go to Bryn Mawr to learn that
reforms are often best effected through exist
ing agencies rather than by creating new ones.

School and the Farm.

There is encouraging significance in the re-
mark by Ohio county farm agent in a re-
cent address at township high school: The
percentage of high school students who return
to the farm is greater than in most localities "
This said in a county where the CONSOLE
dated rural school system has been well devel-
oped 1t means that wherever consolidated
schools established, with facilities for A
high school course, either in the township or
the county, the farmers of the future will be
men and women equipped with the advantages
OF higher education than has been practica bile
under previous conditions environing the conn
try school. The educated farmer will be pro-
sressiVe in his tendencies and he will achieve
the greater productiveness OF crops, the better
marketing facilities and the wiser investment
OF the profits of his farm. All these results
VIII accrue to the general prosperity of the
country and better yet, establish a fine type
of citizenship.

Blaming Congress.

1t has long been the custom in this country
to rail at congress, and especially the house
of representatives, to declare it to be without
leadership and to declare in acrid tones that
it is not doing its duty by the country A ma
ton sick from economic ailments is always
dissatisfied and always ready to find fault
But the truth is that the members of the house
and senate doing what they believe to he
right and are endeavoring to bring about re-
lief. Perhaps the railroad labor board and
the administration have been a little slow in
the matter OF adjusting wages and freight rates
but this will come in time
The great majority of the people overlook
the magnitude of the task congress has before
it. The financial difficulties that confront the
administration are enough to upset any body of
men, The economic distress the country is
now passing through will not yield readily IN
treatment until the transportation question is
sponsible for all our ills Is a gratutous as
sumption that is not borne out by the facts
The beginning of most of our troubles was
the passage of the Adamson law which brought
ABOUT condition of affairs that has effectuaIly
suanSIed business from that day to this The
aruhclai prosperity of the war period modified
Its effect, but the moment that stimulus was
removed We began to suffer and are still
suffering.
Congress IS unable to find an Immediate re-
lief for all ills that aff1ict u.s. but if the press
md people will lend more aid and less criti
cisn we shall get along better

Telling Our Age.

Again has come up the question of whether
or not women should be made to tell their age
as preliminary to registration and have what
one OF them calls ~that brutal truth" recorded
for the inspection of anybody who chooses to
examine the books There are not a few men
who are quite as reluctant as any women are
to have their ages set down in permanent black
and white; and though in the two cases the
feeling gets different expression it has about
the same basis-for both sexes there are prac-
teal disadvantages in having it definitely
known how high the score of years has risen
For men old age makes more difficult the get
ting of new jobs when the old one has been
lost given up, and this difficulty c1rriousIy
enough, has been increased by the greater con-
sideration employers now have for their en-
p!oyes. With that consideration goes a dis
inclination to take elderly men and to as
sumo responsibilities that disproportioned to
the length of service in a new place that is to
be expected from such men.
Once this feeling applied to few women
but it does nowadays to multitudes of them
and they have, of course other reasons. which
also practical in passing as merely senti-
mental, for oSjecting to these disclosures In
strict logic il the voter must tell his age
the woman voter should not be excused The
problem might be solved by asking neither OF
them to do it That, indeed, would remove one
help to identification, and to that extent it
would facilitate fraudulent voting but the ex-
tent would hardly be great enough to measure
The loss of protection would be small and
could be more than made up in other ways
by means OF finger prints, for instance
