 Develop a girls brains. he argues. and you have an entirely different sort of person without the false charm which now wins husbands.
 MT. Chapman was speaking to an audience in connection with an ap- peal for funds to establish a college for women students.
 His experience, he said, had led him to believe that there were masses of young girls with no education and a distinct aversion to work who, given a certain amount of facial prettiness and other minor attrac- tions, seemed to annex men.
 The result was that they had very unhappy marriages. which lasted an extremely short time. Every day he was coming across a painful result of ignorance coupled with beauty It

CONCEPTIONS CAUSE DISRUPTION
 OF RUSS SCHOOL SYSTEM

Moscow, Jan. 30.-The virtual breakdown of RUssia's school system is one of the tragedies of the general economic situation. Outside of this city, in the dozens of smaller places where the correspondent travelled, the poverty of both teachers and pupils is appalling.
 Those in the United States who got their education by tramping for miles through the snows to the little red school house were far better off than the eager students of this land.
 How can I teach ?" asked a woman teacher in Samara. q have barely enough clothes to cover my body, I sleep in a cold room and have next to nothing to eat. For months my salary has not been paid. I keep life together by trading in the public mar ket, selling goods on commission. Nor can I expect the children to learn. They come to school hungry, poorly clad and, as the rooms are cold, we go through the motions of learning, that is all They haven't any books, there is no chalk for the blackboard. The discipline goes to pieces.'
 In Moscow, teachers salaries hadn't been paid for many months, until re-

Buenos Aires, Jan. S0.-(By The A. P.)-More than three weeks elapsed between the death of Sir Ernest Shackleton, the British explorer. and it's announcement to the world, made yesterday when the body arrived at Mon. evideo. The delay, LaNacion's s Montevideo correspondent telegraphs, was ascribed by Captain l.. Hussey. who accompanied the body, as due to series of wireless mishaps. Sir Ernest died aboard the steam another Antarctic voyage. while an shored off South Georgia Island on January 5. His body was taken to Montevideo on the first leg of the trip home aboard the Norwegian steamer Professor Cruvel.
 Captain Hussey bore a dea+h cer- tificate made out at South Georgia Island reading:
 T, Alexander Macklin certify to my best knowledge and belief that the cause of dea h was atheroma in the arteries of the heart. Before death he had not suffered an infectious or con- tagious disease"
 The certificate was signed by Dr. Mack1in as surgeon of the expedition
 The body arrived at MOntevideo in 8 dramatically sealed zinc cell covered with wood
 Captain Hussey told LaNacion's cor respondent that the Quest arrived at South Georgia Island with her main wireless plant out of commission due to OdHaSo Dy u0dNy SlOTII1S uUT1n5 luS voyage, which otherwise was unevent- full Sir Ernest had been in the be- of health throughout the trip. The day before his death he landed on the Island to supervise the purchase of provisions and returned to the ship apparently well. After supper he went 70 the cabin and conversed with his companions.
 At 3:30 o'clock on the morning of January he felt sharp pains in his back and called the doctor, who had hardly begun preparing remedies when the explorer died without uttering an- o"her word.
 When asked why the Quest did not inform the Falkland Islands with her minor wireless, Captain Hussey said it was not sufficiently powerful. The wireless equipment of the professor Cruvel also was out of order he de- clared.

The four horsemen ride. They are distractions, but the things they rep resent are real. No play, no pie tore no work of art can make them ,-.e picture t shows with such vividness and strength must be multiplied a million times, and the half will not be told.
 Fortunately the mind is not capable of making such a multiplication. If an audience could extend the facts of the Four Horsemen until they were coeXtenSive with actual facts or recent and present times the sheer weight of anguish from such a per- ception would leave them frozen in their seats, and quite effectualiy
 The spirit of good also is present There is love, even in the family of Madariaga. Love is the saving qual- ity of life. Whether the Four Horsemen ride again in the time of the living will depend upon the re- actions which come to the minds Of men from such lessons as this pic ture exhibits.
 If war is to be seen as a very pleas ant affair, if ''we'' conduct it, and a very wicked, and unforgiveable af- fair if "others'' conduct it, there will be no end to'war.
 War is horrible because it is war, and this the Four Rarsemen makes so plain that a child can see it.
 The picture is worth the time. It ought to De W1IneSSeu Wlli1 SOlIIc uii- derstanding of what it is about and where it is going. Julio and his loves are mere incidents. They are there that the mind may be fixed upon the causes of war. The Four Horsemen are summoned to ride by the beast of the Apocalyse, who vomits smoke and flame. That beast is man. That beast Is the hate. lust. greed and ig- norance Bv love and intelligence the beast may be slain, and the four riders will ride no more.
 As to the impossibility of exagger- atfon of the truths of catastrophe, note carefully the military cemetery, which is shown toward the end of the play. How many crosses, there are in itl How much grief they repre- sentl If all the crosses that actually stand in European soil. as the result of the great war, could be exhibited, the whole of the picture would not be sufficient to unron the millions and millions of them to the madden ed gaze. A glimpse that is all. The r7ind must do the rest. The horror must be completed by the imagina- tion? The thing so imagined, to be of value, must stimulate the mind to intelligent activity against war.

 They are not at all Commuuistic. They make fun of their comrades or teachers who wear long hair and call themselves Bolsheviki. They attend lectures by Lunacharski, Commissar of Schools, or Madame Lenine, or oth- CTS, that run through a whole after non and they do this on empty stom- achs and yet do not complain.

 His experience as regarded divorcei was that they were largely attributa. b1e not so much to what was called immortality as to ignorance. It was the uneducated woman who did moi make a good mate for a man.
 The moment they got a girl Whd loved knowledge and were really in- terested in the development of heI brains an entirely different woman eventuated.
 Anyone who assisted in the found< ing of a new college would be assist ing in the production of women who raised their sex by their self-restraint and by the feeling they engendered that they were worth while.
 It might sound little cynical, but the position of a preacher brought him into contact with the stupidest possible type. The religious type was a very stupid type - proaoiy speaking, 1t was rotten.

LIQUOR SAVED MAN
 FROM FREEZING TO DEATH

While starting out for a walk to Derby some time early last night, Dud Stafford, age 49. of East Main street. Stratford. fell by the roadside near Wheeler place. just over the boundary in Long Hill, and lay there until ' o'clock today, when he was found by police of the Fourth Precinct uncon- scious and half frozen due to ex- posture. He was removed to police station and the emergency ambu- lance summoned. Dr. A. B. Mar gulis responded and removed Staf- ford to St Vincent's hospital. where his condition is reported as slightly improved.
 Stafford is believed to be mentally unbalanced and is thought to have been under the influence of liquor when he started his mad walk for Derfby some twenty miles by way of Lor1 Hill What saved Stafford from freezing to death was the fact that the liquor kept him warm.
