Further statistics would be nec-
essary TO indicate the changes that
have taken place in the number OF
persons on each side of the aver
age. But assuming that the vast
addition to the total wealth repre-
sents additions to the larger for
tunes rather than to the smaller
incomes, the suggestion of mark,
ed advance in the general standard
of living is unmistakable. Great
public improvements and semipub
lie enterprises which do not figure
in the statistics of ownership Of the
less we'll o-do represent also to a
considerable extent improvement
in their living conditions, compared
with the pioneer days.
It will probably surprise many to
learn that the region that has taxi
en- the leadership in per capita
wealth from New England is the
Pacific coast; also that the Pacific
coast leadership has been unbroken
since 1880, except that about 1900
1t gave way for short time to
the Mountain" group-of eight
states, from Montana to New Mexi-
co included. The development OF
the citrus fruit industry of Calf
ornia, the settlement in the south
ern part Of the state of many per-
sons living on their incomes and
the rise of movie" star million
aires in Los Angeles have doubt
less helped the region to maintain
it's leadership in recent years; yet
it is Oregon and not California
that stands firse OF all in the group
of three states.
The particularly interesting gains
of the last two decades or so are
-, NT;ob;0o-, Mouth Caco1;oo ovd
Florida, the reasons for which will
readily occur, to wit, the develop
ment of the automobile industry,
the building up of cotton 111anufac-
turing and the growth of great
winter resorts, with an accompany
ing real estate boom. 1t will be
noted that the first and third OF
these movements reflect the in
crease of money to spend in other
parts of the country, especially in
the Middle Atlantic group-New
York, New Jersey and Pennsyl-
yania-which continues to hold it's,
own, as it has for rs years, as lead
er by wide margin total wealth.
The Middle West, or the east
North Central" group-Ohio, In
DIANA Illinois, Michigan and Wis
consin-now has the center of pop
ulation, the center of the foreign
born population, and the centers of
manufactures, of number of farms
and of corn production, and ranks
second in total wealth. 1t is, how
ever, sixth out of nine in per capt.
ia wealth. There may perhaps be
detected here a reason why it is
not far from the center of political
and economic unrest. There has
been a steady pull southwark of
most of the "centers" here noted.
The South has still, however, a
long way to go to recover the rela-
tive position which it occupied,
both in total and per capita wealth
before the Civil war.-Springfield

Tigers Undeieated While Yale ~ Has Yet to Win One

New York, March a.--A growing, confident Tiger sprawls at the tip of the Eastern Intercollegiate basket ball staircase and glares upon five clawinG foes.
 Just a step below, Dartmouth hesitates, pulled from final claw with Princeton by a desperate Cor nell on Saturday night in one of the greatest upsots of tho indoor season. Columbia wrestles with Pennsyl- vania in the middle of tho Night with the balance in favor of the New York institution. Cornell, fighting valiantly, has started the climb while Yale lies at tht bottom, unable to gain even the first step after having been hurled back eight times.
 Dartmouth's fall started when the IIanoverians encountered Princeton two weeks ago. Then came defeats at the hands of Pennsylvania and Cornell during the past week, the Green finishing its season on foreign fields. There is one clash with  Princeton to como but this cannot change the league result Prince ton is the intercollegiate champion. Through it all, Captain Gloves. of the Tigers, has pushed his way to first position in individual scoring with 21 floor baskets and IS fouls for a total of 55 points. His team mate. Lemon. is only two points be- hind, having replaced Picken. the Dartmouth forward, who now stands third. Friedman, Of Hanover, Is fourth with 50 and Hynson, 4 of Princeton. fifth with 45.

 The Second Half
 Restelli returned to play at the opening of the second half and Sil- verman returned to Inc scoring column when he tossed in two free tries on foul by Laliar. This brought the Dixies' total up to 20. It was 22 minute later when Half ner again got away for double decker and 2$ when Waterman shot one out of two when fouled by Re- steln.

 LaHar played too rough with Wa terman, however, and it cost the Mats two points when Wardy tossed them both in. Sheehan sliced one off the gross count though when he tossed ip one when given free shot. The Dixies then returned to the assault and Hafner and Murphy scored double deckers In quick suc- cesslon. Restelli had a third per sonal foul called and Waterman made good on one. Here RestelIi was called out of the game and Hoist again went in. silverman and Hur- ley both cased two pointers within short space of time and then La Har got after Waterman again.

Red Reynolds returned to l the fray in time to see Murphy throw in the basket that sent the Dixie total up 10 34.
