For that reason the experiment to be started soon at the University of Wisconsin by Dr. Alexander Met- klejohn must be of interest. A selected group of stu- dents is to study under a selected group of teachers. There will be no definite course of study and there! will be no definite requirements for each student to fulfill. But there will be examinations at the end of each term much harder than those which students in) spoke. As Mr. Coolidge said, the India: the other branches of the universities have to take. This is the system now in use in England and other European lands. It has proved entirely successful there, and its success should be as great here. The one great difficulty of our universities is the fact that all students are arbitrarily bound to take the same amount of work, no matter whether their mental ca- pecities are capable of assimilating more or less. There ig @ distinction between the student with an average mind and the one whoee intelligence is above the nor- mal level. If ever there is to be any solution of this problem of lumping the students together the group education system, as Dr. Meiklejohn proposes to apply it. seems the best.

In one little town in Pennsylvania, we are told, more than 100 children of striking union miners are being Kept out of school because children of non-union min- ere are there. In another town 20 children walked out rather than | pursue studies in the same rooms wick the children of “gtrike-breakers.” The men of these towns are robbing their children of an heritage the world owes them. That heritage is télerant, unspoiled childhood. Tn a tenement district in a certain eastern city, there ate five nationalities in the same building.

The battle was fought in 1890, and some of its survivors danced for the president after he have been brought to their present citizenship status as a result of three federal acts—that of 1871, denying recognt- thon to tribal governments as euch; that of 1887, indi- vidualiging Indian ownership of land, and that of 1923, making all native-born Indians American citizens who had not previously become such. More than 10,000 In- Gian youths served in the army and 2,000 in the navy 4a the world war, with a valor and fidelity recognized by other governments as well as our own. In a single sentence the president sketched the In- Gian problem, 60 far as there is @ problem: “Today we find that the Indian people, recently primitive, not 80 very far from the hunter stage, are surrounded by twentieth century conditions, which are alien to their tacial characteristics, their tribal ways and their states of mind.” What is to be done about it? Nothing, so far as the older tribesmen are concerned: “They wish to live and die according to the traditions! ways of the In- dians and should be permitted to do so.” Many of the younger ones bave adjusted themselves to the new order of things, and men of Indian blood are in the senate.

The German Nationalists make n0 secret -f their aspira- tons in that direction.

To Improve Weight If you are more than 10 pounds underweight, eat more at each meal, get more rest and learn to relax. If you feel worried or nervous, eat less than usual. Drink six or eight glasses of water a day. Drink a glass on rising in the morring. ink water with your meals, but do not use it to wash down food insufficiently chewed. Cool water is better than ice water.
