Rowing Grows in Favor.

Unaffected by the unrest in other
branches of intercollegiate sport, be.
yond suspicion Of unfair practices
stands rowing. College athletic lumi
naries are disqualified, many var
sity hero is suspected of having been
drawn to his colors by considerations
not altogether scholastic, but oars
men are not among these.
intercollegiate rowing stands out
as the one major activity with which
the taint of professionalism is not
associated. 1t stands out as the
one medium of true amateur effort,
and to this may be traced a. great
deal of the influence which is in.
creasing popular interest in the sport.
Regattas this year are more numerous
than ever, regatta crowds are bigger,
new crews are seen on the water.
Massachusetts Institute of Tech
nology, after few years of expert
ment, has made it's debut in open
competition this spring. Wisconsin,
which withdrew from rowing some
years ago, has revived the sport, and
Brown, which dropped out of the
game in 1888, when the new era Of
eight cared shell racing was ushered
in, has organized a four and bids
fair to come back in 1923. Rowing
is booming in the colleges, it is boom
ing among the clubs, and it deserves
its prosperity.
College coaches do not get their
sweep swingers ready made. Prac-
tically all of the stalwart young men
who win seats in the varsity boats
must be developed. Very few of
them ever saw a sweep before they
entered the college boathouse. There
are no gate receipts at regattas. Row
ing is all expense and no income.
This precludes proselyting, profes-
sionalism, loans from enthusiastic
graduates. More power to rowing!

Armenia and the Allies.
An Alternative TO the Investigation
OF Turkish Atrocities.

To THE NEW YORK HERALD: The pro-
posal OF investigation by Great Britain.
France and italy of recent Turkish
atrocities perpetrated on the Armenians
and Greeks is an attempt TO placate
civilized public opinion, which has been
affronted by the base betrayal of the
Christian peoples of the Near East.
The moral bankruptcy of Europe Is
plainly revealed in this proposal of
farcical and futile investigation, to
which the American Government has
very wisely refused to lend dignity. In
vestigations of Turkish atrocities have
been conducted for the last fifty years.
to the great amusement of the Turks.
who have no objection TO their indefinite
continuation as long as they do not
deter them from perpetrating atrocities.
The most opportune and welcome in
vestigation would be an investigation
into the promises which the Allies made
during the war for the liberation OF
Armenia, the greatest victim alike OF
Turkish brutality and Of European per-
idy. and into their postwar conduct.

Women as Surgeons.

The statement OF Mrs. GARFIELD
BRYAN, described as the only woman
surgeon in Paris, that women are bet.
ter adapted to the practice of sur
gerry than of medicine presents an
interesting subject Of discussion.
While many will accept DR.. BRYAN's
reasons for her belief in the special
qualifications of women for surgical
work, the grounds on which she bases
her opinion that women are i'll fitted
for medical practice are more open
to question.
Her. assertion, for instance, that
women lack the deductive faculties
essential to successful diagnosis, and
especially that women have defective
intuitional powers. is rather surpris-
ing. There is very widespread
popular impression that intuitional
powers, at times almost uncanny in
their manifestations, are a marked
characteristic Of feminine mentality.
Just what is the difference between
powers of deduction and powers Of
intuition has been the subject OF
more or less psychological hair
splitting. To the lay mind they
seemingly come to very much the
same thing.
Both involve reasoning from prem.
ises to conclusions. and they differ ap-
parently only in that the one is de.
liberate and the other all but in
Simultaneous; the reasoning points OF
departure of one process are the more
obvious, outstanding data, while the
other may work from minute surface
manifestations which feminine keen
ness Of observation is alert to detect.
IL Dr. BRYAN means that her sex is
incapable of the slower. judicial de-
ductive reasoning essential to medi-
cal diagnosis, that is one thing. II
she means that women. are defective
in intuitional powers. she is very apt
to hear chorus OF denial.
That women are capable of becom.
ing adept in surgical work, and that
in some branches of it at least they
are better equipped for success than
men, DR.. BRYAN argues with much
force. The manual dexterity essen.
tial 10 the surgeon women unques.

other necessary appendage of expen-
sive parade
He made the aristocrats and the
democrats dance together. One OF
the naughty Warehouses; OF
Qusensberry had good reason to re
member him, for when she came to
the Assembly ball wearing an apron
he took 1t off with the remark None
but abigails appear here in white
aprons" He would not allow swords
to be worn at balls, and he strictly
enforced every social custom. He
greeted booted and spurred young
squire and begged to know IL he had
not forgotten something. II see you
have your boots, spurs and whip, but
where is your horse?"
Bath owed much of its prosperity
and its position in the height of it's
social success to Beau NASH. 1t did
not forget this debt, for the town
granted him a pension when his own
resources failed. gave him an expen-
sive public funeral and erected a
monument over his grave in its ia
nous old Abbey church.
In the course of time easy and
comfortable means of travel diverted
the stream of pleasure seeking guests
to other waters and resorts and Tun-
bridge Wells and Bath lost much OF
their social prestige. On one OF his
last visits to Tunbridge Wells
THAcKERAy says that fiddlers, harp
ers and trumpeters were playing in
a weak little old balcony, and he
asks Where are the earls, duchesses,
bishops and magnificently embroid-
cred gamesters?" A half dozen chill
dren and their nurses were listening
to the musicians and an old lady or
two passed, "and for the rest l saw
but an uninteresting population Of
native tradesmen."
The story of Bath and Tunbridge
Wells is that of many other famous
pleasure resorts. Since the great
days of Old Orchard, Long Branch
and Saratoga America has seen their
social glories eclipsed by Newport,
Bar Harbor, Asheville and Palm
Beach.

Teredos at Barnegat.
Invaders From Abroad Threaten
Wooden Piers and Bridges.

To THE NEW YORK HERALD: New evil
oence Is found that American waters
have been invaded by a teredo OF a
foreign type.
Professor Thurlow G. Nelson. biolo-
gist OF New Jerseys State Experiment
Station on Barnegat Bay, reports that
a boring pile worm of European origin
and of great destructive powers is at
work in brackish coastal waters. He
is quoted as saying that the railroad
and State bridges across the bay, as
we'll as docks and bulkheads, are threat
ened with destruction should this sum-
ners pile worm breeding season, which
begins about June ], be favorable to the
borer.
II was by an impressive object lesson
that this foreign teredo made Ii known
TO the scientists that IL had got here. A
pile supported platform at the Barnegat
Experiment Station suddenly collapsed.
Investigation showed that the piles had
been eaten through by borers; investi-
cation Of the borers disclosed that they
were not of our own home grown va
riety but were Of foreign origin. How
they got here or when they came is not
known. but here they arc and, as Pro-
fessor Nelson afiirms, busy on the Job.
1t Is not because the foreign pile
worm Is more destructive than the ma
tive that its presence should cause anx-
iety: It is because its radius Of action
IL greater. The native borer canpot
live out of salt water. Its. European
relative penetrates slightly brackish
ater and even the fresh water of riv-
ers. Furthermore, It has no known nat
ural enemies in American waters. but
even II there were such an enemy the
tcredo has way of retreatng into Its
hole in the wood and locking the door
with bit of shell.
To the end that the ravages OF the
combined American and foreign teredo
armies be checked Professor Nelson
urges that all infested wood be immedi-
ately destroyed. A single colony Of bor-
ors in one pile may be the means Of
losing an entire bridge or dock. The
case OF San Francisco Bay is cited as a
specimen Of what this destroyer can do.

Our Waste and Wet Lands.

Waste and wet lands have their
uses, and under proper management
can be made yield good return
Drainage, which is always expensive,
Is often employed to transform land
which would be available as q sane
tuary for waterfowl, or for the pre-
duction OF fish or nut crops, into till
able land in regions where there is
already plenty of farming soil. The
needs of many communities would
be better served IL wet lands were
developed naturally.
According to a report of the De-
partment OF Agriculture 40 per cent.
of the land in the United States is
nontillable. The proportion classi-
fed as swamp or marsh lands is
large. Every acre of it could under
proper control be made at small ex-
pense to produce returns through its
possibilities for game conservation.
Areas on which wild fowl shooting
could be had during the open season
would be valuable, for every commu-
nifty in the United States has its
contingent of sportsmen.
Other nontillable land outside the
inaccessible territory in mountainous
regions might be used for the produc-
tion of nut crops. Once nut bearing
trees are established the matter Of
land deterioration ceases to be prob
lem. Far less labor is required in
the care of the trees than for the
cultivation of grain crops.
This question Of what to do with
waste lands is live one. Any tray
eler who keeps hfs eyes open In a
journey through the United States
will, see plenty of evidences of worn
out land, much of which was once fer.
tile. How to make it productive
again is one of the problems of the
hour.

The Ways of Men.

The men who walk alone in life.
Down ways diversified,
VIII find the paths that they have
known
Converge when they have died.
For each must pass from life to death,
And yet | dare to say
That no two men in going hence
VIII take the same dark way
For out OF gloom remembered paths
That they have loved will gleam
And each viii journey into death
Upon his own lost dream.
For one a stretch OF shining sea,
The call of blowing sails;
For one n road between tall trees
with stars and nightingales
A highway in the sky for one
And for another hills.
And just meadow for a third
With spring and daffodils.
And some will walk and some will ride
And maybe some will fly
whichever way he loved on earth
That way each man will die.
Perhaps IL isn't true at all,
But death seems kinder So
An endless journey down the road
Where most We love to go.
