UNENFoKCED REGULATIONS.

Perhaps it seems a bit hard upon the
owners and operators Of theaters to or
der the play and picture houses closed
until certain structural weaknesses and
Inadequate FIRE protection have been
remedied, but it is so much preferable
10 tho possibility OF having these faults
responsible for large loss of life or
even the cause of death of one individ-
nal that there can be no liberation Of
any thought Of chance taking.
Having established the fact that de-
fects exist which do not afford proper
protection for the public, it of course
indicates that there has been laxity
in regard TO building inspection at the
time Of construction and that similar
disregard for safety has been shown in
the failure to insist upon the carrying
out OF the necessary preventive meas
utes regarding fire. But with those
conditions revealed there remains moth
ing to be done but TO insist upon cor
rection. and in the meantime safety
lines in closing the houses and, keeping
them closed until inspection can be
passed.
These revelations plainly indicate
that regulations amount to little CT
rothing unless those who are supposed
20 enforce them are living UP to their
responsibilities, and under the circum-
stances It Is to be realized that their
responsibilities are large.
Unfortunate as it is that so many are
forced to an untimely death and SO
many others unknowingly are subjected
10 great hazards because of the failure
Of others to meet requirements, yet the
conditions which have been disclosed
cannot be regarded otherwise than a
tendency which prevails to dodge regI-
lations whenever possible. and the en-
enlargement Of the habit will continue
Just as long as the impression is gain
I'd that regulations will amount to moth
re because they will not be enforced.

scRAPPING PAID COACHES.

When President Meklejohn of Am
herst college comes forth with the sug-
-estion that the paid coaches for ath-
leucs in colleges should be abandoned,
be hits upon a subject which is sure to
bring forth variety of opinions. That
he will ind many who are in full ac-
cord with the view he takes of the sit
lstion is certain, while there will be
perhaps as many who will think other
wise.
The president Of Amherst wouldn't
apply his idea to institutions which
might he ranked in the class with his
own for among them there is less at
tention paid to the paid coach. His sug-
rcstion is that the colleges that take
the lead in athletics. such as Yale,
Harvard and Princeton should start the
ball rolling, AMI by their good example
expect the others to step into line He
would have athletics an undergraduate
affair.
There are many educators who be-
.eye that sports in colleges are over
done. 1t IS not to be understood that
,Ley do not appreciate the great hene-
ht Of athletic training but they believe
that too much attention is given to il
TO accomplish such an end that college
for some students simply means athiet-
les. and it is when that becomes their
entire aim and effort that the ZEAL OBJ
Jet OF the institution is not being
served. Thai doesn't appear to be the
complaint Of DR.. Meiklejohn. but rather
is il his effort to remove the inequality
caused by the professional coach.
Perhaps it is possible to demonstrate
that. with the same material, the sth
letes in the different institutions coult
be as well developed by the undergrad
uate system of coaching as by the hired
coach. If such IS the case 1t certain!
hasn't Impressed the universities refer
red to. There is no reason to beIiev,
that such can be done but the aim o
the Amherst president seems to be II
get athletics in the various institution
onto a similar basis and that could b.
done through the abandonment of tn
paid coach.
Athletics is bound to have a promi
lent place In higher institutions o
earning and it will be hard to pry loos
he idea that the paid instructor is a
necessary for that as for othe
branches of training.

TREATY CONSIDERATION.

Whether the call by Senator Hitch
cock for information and documents re-
garding the four-power treaty is the
first of series of efforts at delay will
be demonstrated in time. When he
found in the report Of the delegates
nothing concerning the debates or the
discussion regarding the treaty it may
have been that he was deprived of
something on which he could base addi-
tional opposition to the treaty, but It is
the treaty and not the discussions which
the senate is asked to pass upon.
Reference to the different interpreted
tions which were given by the president
and Secretary Hughes to one provision
in the treaty might have been a point
well made were it not a fact that that
very difference in Interpretation was
taken up by the conference itself and
cleared UP, The conference had agreed
upon the Interpretation of the clause,
and at the time the opinion of the pres
ident was asked concerning it ne was
uniformed regarding the agreement in
conference. His view differed. It was
natural that it should not knowing of
the agreed Interpretation which followed
lines that would not ordinarily be an
ticipated. But inasmuch as the confer
ence itself took action to clear up any
possible misunderstanding reference to
that now seems to be a bit unnecessary
and uncalled for in acting upon the
treaty and the Interpretation that the
conference recognizes and the president
approves.
Proper and efficient attention Is ex-
pected to be given in every instance
where so important a matter as trea-
ty is under consideration, but that
doesn't warrant needless delays and the
consideration of something which is ir
no way involved as matters now stand

FROM LUCILE'S DIARY

Mothers forehead puckered into a lit
tie frown. and long sigh escaped her as
she read in the morning mail a letter
from Aunt Annie.
Whats the matter. dearie?" 1 asked.
Els Aunt Annie asking you to do some
tiresome shopping"
ooh, no." said mother. She Is coming
in town tomorrow to consult the ocu1ist.
She asks us not to bother to meet her
train, for she will taxi right up to the
house"
Then why worry when she is so con-
siderate, mother? You are always glad
to see her"
Yes, indeed but you see Aunt Rachel
has asked Fannie and me to take your
grandmother over to the luncheon she Is
giving for that school friend of hers who
Is passing through here on her way from

disseminate an atmosphere of gayety and

habit of fretting over small matters.
We'll, so that you do" said mother,
crisply. So when talking to Ernest Au-
brey over the phone the next day I told
him that 1 was having an early luncheon
all by my lonesome. I had called him
to ask what he thought of my idea for
the Dix Amies to give a June dance for
some of the ex-service men that I had
known in the A. E. F.
why not lunch with me, Lucile?" he
suggested. "And then we can discuss
your party more fully than by telephone
1t appeared the sensible thing to ac-
cept this invitation. and when I at last
glanced at my wrist and saw that it was

We'll then, all we have to do is tc

to meet her. We cam make it easily

We acted at once upon this comforting
suggestion and arrived at the station in
plenty of time, but no Aunt Annie
alighted from the 315. Ernest said he
supposed that she had changed her plans

OPPOSING A BENEFIT.

In view of the difficulties which have
been experienced by trolley lines in
continuing TO furnish service, the efforts
to snatch away their business and the
manner in which they have responded
to public convenience when it was i'm
possible to get sufficient revenue to meet
expenses to say nothing about taxes
and debts. there is no reason to ex-
pect that the effort which Is being made
in Massachusetts, to have a law passed
prohibiting the use Of one-man cars will
succeed.
The one man car has been a life
saver for the public and the trolley
companies. But for that means of cut
ting down the operating expenses, there
are sections that would have long ago
been without trelleys and the coming
reduction in trolley fares would proba-
bly, not have been possible at this time.
