Ending a Fizzle.
{ pittsburgh Gadette-Times. J


1t is announced that the Senate inquiry into
the charges of illegal executions in the army in
France is about be brought to close. Unless
elevenhhour revelation sensational allegations
Of Senator Watson, of Georgia, will end in fzzle
The witnesses have told many stories but where they
differed from official records they of such
hazy character that they did not constitute real
evidence
Much of it circulated in the army,
having basis of fact in it's origin but magnifed
in its repetition that it became wholly untrue 1t is
altogether possible that there abuses but, if so,
this inquiry has failed to reveal them in any tangible
form.
AS a whole the witnesses appear have been of
class that would be able to learn the least about
what happening, had the worst of what was
alleged actually taken place. Probably none but
Senator Watson would have been gulible enough to
place confidence in the character of the testimony
which led him to make the grave charges and to
arouse without reason in the minds of many who
lost lover there fear that their may have
been the victim of officers brutality or caprice
About the only feature brought definitely was
the number OF legal executions offenses that
under civil law here home Ii there were outrages
committed by officers, if soldiers SHOT without
reason were executed without trial, there has
no reliable evidence to that effect
The best proof OF the fmsiness the charges lies
in the absence of knowledge of any such abuses by
the former soldiers, of whom any may inquire
the boys you know. They heard OF sueh hap
penings until Senator Watson started the talk But
1T is well that there has been inquiry 1t re-
moves doubt suspicion that might have remained
to be repeated by those seeking notcriety

Something is to be hoped for during 1922 from

URGING CALENDAR REVISION.

Something that will interest all classes of persons
in the United States is the attempt being made now
by the Liberty Calendar Association of America to
establish new calendar dividing the year into thir-
teen months of twenty-eght days each, perhaps to
make years more monotonous than now.
The Liberty Calendar" Bill, which has been in
PRODUCED in the House by Representative Thomas d.
Schall of Minnesota, with the Endorsement of the
association would put the time schedule into
effect in 1928 ito give the other an oppor-
tunty to follow" The bill is advocated by the as
year which would definitely fix all time the
dates of every day of the week by the uniform of
twenty eight day month division and thus dispense
with the need OF yearly calendars and incon-
venence of having to refer to these to establish the
coincidence of days and dates
In 365-day years the odd day remaining would be
disposed of New Year Day., the first of the year
and retained a legal holiday.
In Leap Year the additional one day lap would
be disposed of by creating Leap Year Day" be-
tween the months of June and July as legal holiday
The extra month of the calendar would be called
'Vern' TO include the ''vernal equinox and begin
spring.
The proposed calendar would begin the week with
Monday instead of Sunday. Thus 1928 selected for
installing it, advocates explained, because the next
day after the first is Monday. The same dates for
every month then would be fixed for each day the
week until the end of time. An estimated saving of
250O0,O00 year expended calendars is one
argument OF the association in support of the proposal

would not resign under fire." And he didn't
Although up for impeachment, and various other
things he defed his attackers fought the attacks and
when like good fighter, he won and as the incidents

College Athletics.
(Ohio State Journal.)


Probably most thoughtful college authorities feel
that the Importance accorded it by the students and
the public at large is exaggerated and undue The
faculty, says Dr. Lowell, rather paintively assumes
that education is the prime object the college, and
doubtless most faculties incline to that view
The aim of college athletes, most sober-minded
persons Of mature judgment will agree should be to
give student the advantage of heathfu exercise
and pleasant recreation College sport should be a
means, and not an end. Instead it has become an
end in itself.
In the present state of development few young
men of strong physique, the very ones who least
need encouragement to participate in bodily activities
Tor their natural incnations that way are train
ed to the limit, sometimes harmfuy overtrained
while the great bulk of the students including all
who need nelligenty directed physical exercise
sit in the grand stand and smoke An excessive i'm
portance is attached to the team, to membership in
the team and to victory by the team
1t is all more or less ridiculous but as Dr.
Lowell suggests, the public demands it, and so do the
undergraduates. There is doubt in the World that
a winning football team attracts students and gives
The people of the town where the educational ins-
tuition is situated feeling of interest in it and
loyalty to it.
He would be bold college President who would
insist upon placing athletics in his school on basis
likely his resignation would be requested by the
Trustees. We guess We shall have to trust to evou-
ton in this matter.
