THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE pants. Even if they had the money to buy machinery, their farms are too small to make cultivation by machinery economic and effi- cient. The Mexicans have had the same experience and are proposing a change back, not exactly o the old conditions, but at least to the estab- lishment of farms far larger than could be en- trusted to a single peon. Whether the rever- sion can be made without a return to what was little if anything less than slavery for the agri- cultural laborers is a question. These experiments in Russia and Mexico are 00 | of especial interest to Americans because for two decades there has been a trend in the Uni- ted States away from small farm holdinzs. 9 | Farming on a large scale is decidedly the most! profitable here and many men find ownership! of a chain of tenant-operated farms pays good dividends. But there is no threat of enslave- ment of farm labor here. If wages and work- ing conditions on the farm are not to his lik-| ing the farmhand finds employment in the nearby town or nearest city. an N. (Official City, State and County Newspaper) A Time of Inspiration One of the duties of a poet is to phrase great Rumania Every so often the average newspaper read- er lifts his eyes from his paper and wonders} audibly why in thunder there is so much stuff printed about Rumania. Probably he concludes} that the country must have a good press agent. | Rumania before the war was distinctly aj} minor nation. Since then, however, it has oc- cupied an important position in European af- fairs. It is more than twice as large and twice as populous as it was before 1914. Its position as one of the middle-sized states in Europe, and its very strategic geography lo- cation, has made it important in European} politics. Rumania expanded at the expense of Hun-| gary and Russia. These countries would like to get their territories back; Rumania natur- ally wants to keep them. The result is a game of alliances and diplomatic schemings. The peace of Europe rests in no small measure on what Rumania and her enemies do. Hence the nation has an importance far greater than it had before the war. Which, of course, is why the details of its internal troubles get front page space in newspapers. Unfortunately, the poet sometimes does this Then it becomes a hackneyed jingle, and we Sych a phrase, for example, is the familiar “Lives of great men oft remind) oh “visitors’ day.” It smacks of the copy book, trite and platitudinous. | Yet it expresses a truth. One of the best ways you can spend your time is in reading hiographies of great men. {f. This is a presidential year. One of the ways Um Voter can prepare for it is by reading the takers of the leading candidates. Doing that/ ‘will not only help him to cast his vote intel- ligently; it will prove as interesting a task a3 he could find for the long winter evenings. It is encouraging for example, to read of Dawes, the penniless attorney in a small west- en city, fighting his way to the top; of Hoov- er, working his way through college and toil- ing with a pick and shovel in a gold mine after graduation; of Smith, born in a tenement over a barber shop, quitting school at 15 to help support his family, rising to become his excel- lency, the governor of New York. are a great many ambitious young men in this country, but many of them get disco too easily. “I want to get ahead, ibut there’s no future in this job”—haven’t you ‘heard that again and again? The fact of the Ematter is—as a reading of biographies shows —that any job can “have a future,” if the man Milling it so wills it. 2 George Bernard Shaw, for instance, started zin life as an employe of a London telephone company. Probably he had an occasional doubt that there was any chance for advancement in his job. Al Smith, at the end of his first term in the New York legislature, wanted to quit politics altogether; he was convinced he never could “get anywhere” that way. Henry Ford, “when he was earning his living as night man in a power house, must have wondered if he hadn’t been side-tracked. All of this is perfectly obvious, of course. But it is so easy to forget it; so easy to give way to discouragement, to feel that all the ave- nues of advancement have been closed. Each man’s opportunity lies within himself. That is a lesson everyone learns, but many for- get. If you happen to be one of those who ' WASHINGTON ™ BY RODNEY DUTCHER ham and Fess.

There has been a mild revival re- cently of the “draft Coolidge” talk, and that may well be a significant item in the current fanning. Mr. Coolidge, of course, is not a candidate.

They'll do you good, Intellectual Advance It is the prediction of a Kansas educator that the country will need “seven Harvards and seven Yales” and a compulsory school age of 18 or 21 years at the end of another half cen- tury if the present demand for education is} tained for that length of time. The time of the so-called self-made man is past. Trained and cultured men are being sought by big business. One of the self-made men of yesterday is author of the statement that the railroad business can not progress without the assistance of the college and uni- versity trained men. It is the judgment of leading educators that this nation is on the threshold of an intellec- tual movement unparalleled even by the cul- tural eras of Egypt, Athens and Rome. The country’s educational facilities are already woefully inadequate, and, unless greatly aug- mented, will seriously hinder this intellectual advance. This appears to be a natural ,development common to all civilized countries. Learning has always followed the acquisition of great wealth, Man’s turning from the quest of mate- rial wealth to the quest of learning is a natural sequence, Mental development in its several manifestations —in literature, philosophy. science, music and art—is always to be found after periods of intensive production of mate- rial wealth. The principle has been demon- strated by the Egyptians, the Athenians and the Romans. The history of these three ancient cultures is a warning to American civilization that to halt in this intellectual advance will prove fatal. It must strive ever onward and upward or slip backward. There can be no “decline and fall” of the American empire if this era of cul- tural advance is not followed by a period of in- tellectual apathy and retardation, resulting in licentiousness and prodigality. , y or another. His remark to alt way, as between Dawes and point just now is, however, arding Hoover’s apparently ex- chances of victory, that ge _hasn’t promised to refi High Academic Mortality (Indianapolis Star) Announcement is made by the University of Wisconsin that about one thousand and seven hundred “children” who entered last fall as freshmen will not return next year as sopho- mores. The term “children” was used by the registrar in his report to the board becaus the students were found to be lacking in abil ity to attain the academic level required at the institution. Others will be barred because they evidently enrolled with the intention of mak- ing the campus a “glorified playground.” The freshmen enrollment at Wisconsin last fall was 2,900 so that the elimination of 1,700 will con- stitute a cut of considerably more than 50 per cent of the class. | The problem is one that confronts most higher educational institutions, which have been making a study of academic mortality. An Eastern professor started some rather acrimonious discussion a few years ago when he contended that the privileges of the univer- | sities should be limited to “an aristocracy of brains.” His critics contended that it would be almost impossible to determine which stu-' dents should thus be selected for continued col- Jegiate training and which should be summar- ily barred. The rule was especially criticized in its possible application to state universities | supported by all the taxpayers, who would resent alleged discrimination. i It is evident that many who enter college; for the first time regard the campus as a “glor-| ified playground,” where study is merely an} annoyance to be tolerated for the enjoyment derived from social and athletic activities. | Membership in a fraternity is frequently re- garded as essential to a successful course, al- though the actual benefits such an affiliation confers may be ignored for the shallow social seperianiies associated with the Greek letter on. i The answer to the problem is being found in a definite trend toward higher scholastic re- quirements. With the cost of higher educa- tion increasing and the value of university enhanced by the introduction of more scientific and commercial courses, it is essen- holdings, | tial that its benefits should be preserved for in prac-| those who appreciate them. lege may still 8 playground to those who devote them- selves to intense : primarily for the The mortality That the “Coolidge threat” is con- sidered very real by some politicians was adequately proved by Senator LaFollette’s insistence on the pass- age of his an ird term resolution —and by the vigorous opposition of such of Cal’s pals as Senators Bing- OUR BOARDING HOUSE OTHER NIGHT, WHEN You “Wo FEATHER-HEADS PUT ON A HOWLING ConTEST!. awe MRS.
