Allen Shattuck, Democratic nominee for Terri- is one of the ablest men that ever Alaska Legislature. He was Chair- and Means Committee in the last He was a watch dog of torial Senator served in the man of the W House of Representatives. the treasury, but fair and p ve. Those who served in the House with hinwithout regard to polities or location of residence, fay him very high tribuse. They say he is thoroughly honest, very able, of send judgment, a hard worker and always alert. His fellow townsmen know all that to be true. They also know of his public spirit and his loyalty to Alaska. Mr. Shattuck was a boy when he came to Ju- neau. He grew up here and accumulated a com- petency in the real estate and Insurance business. For many years he was President of the Chamber of Comerce, and He has continued to be active in that organization and otherwise whenever it is possible for him to be of service to Juneau and the Territory—and that is most of the time. People are fortunate when they get an oppor- tunity to vote for such men as Mr. Shattuck is for publ€ office—particularly for membership in the Legislature. It is not often that the opportunity comes. Straigtforward, square as the compass, true as steel, he ought to be elected to the Territorial Senate by an overwhelming majority. DROUGHT REDUCES WATER FOWL. The waterfow] of the countrny this year find themselves figuratively between the devil and the deep sea—only most sportsmen are not devils and the birds have been hard pressed to find enough water to meet their requirements. Game protectors of the Bureau of Biological Sur- vey of the United States Department of Agriculture have made careful observations in some of the States worst hit by this year's drought, and their reports, together with others that have come from Canad- ian Provinces to Paul G. Redington, Chief of the Bureau, are to the effect that many of the sloughs, ponds, small lakes, and even larger bodies of water are at the lowest level known for years, and that some of the best waterfowl lakes are drv. Shortage of water and other conditions have cut the hatch of the game-fowl species 50 per cent. be- low that of last year, according to estimates made by certain Canadian observers, and last year's hatch in Canada was far below normal. As a result, the waterfowl of both Canada and the United States are facing a serious séuation. It has been reperted to the Biological Survey that many of the large duck clubs ase pumping or preparing to pump water into their lakes from larger bodies of water, and that State game depart- ments are transferring fish from one point to an- other or pumping water into the smaller streams. Furthermore, the Govrenment has reduced the bag limit on waterfowl for the individual hunter to 15 ducks and 4 geese a day and has precribed a posses-‘on limit of two days' bag. This should help—but there is oill cause for apprehension. For example, local observers who see plenty of wild fowl in their localities may think that there are plenty in all otker localities. This conclusion, according to officials of the RBiological Survey, would very likely be wrong. Ti boint out that reduced water in many States ma, centrate the birds in places where there is water. Most hunters are interested in maintaining the game-bird supply, and Mr. Red- ington has made an urgent appeal to the Sportsmen of the country to recognize the situation now men- acing the waterfowl and to. be governed thereby in taking ducks and geese during the present season. REASONABLE CRITICISM. Senator James A. Reed of Missouri, which to base his criticism of the investigations of the Wickersham Former has a lot on long drawn out Law Enforcement Commission. He said: There is no need for an investigation of a situation that is perfectly ohyious to every intelligent person. I think it is perfectly obvious that the people of the United States have given this “noble experiment” a very thorough trying out and that it is the ghastliest fail- ure of any law that has been enacted in the last hundred years. The time has come when this thing is bound to be a political issue. It cannot be any longer treated as something under trial. Every candidate for public office must come out and say where he stands. He is right. in investigating the weather. and we have lack of Prohibition enforcement. authority can change the weather and no authority | can enforce Prohibition.

(Boston Globe.) | | { Do children really learn a foreign language more |easily than grown-ups? That they do is one of |the oldest and most popular ideas about educa- {tion. Prof. Edward L. Thorndike, head of Columbia ‘Umversxty's Institute of Educational Research, says it isn't so. He has measured the rate of learning |languages between groups of children and groups |of adults. His results lead him to say: { The facts are in flat contradiction to 1 the doctrine that childhood is the period | for easiest learning to read, write or under- | stand the hearing of a language. | Pupils nine to eighteen years old in a | good private school having over twice as 1 much class study as a group thirty-five years | old and older gained little more than half as ? much. Younger groups of ages around nine | and eleven show still slower rates of learn- | ing, despite the fact that in one group they were children of exceptionally high inte)li- | gence. | The result of his comparison of the rate of learn-| |ing betwcen children and adults, not only in lan- iguuges but in other subjects, so impressed Profes- |sor Thorndike that he has made it the key to a very |significant new book on adult learning that is ac-| icppted as authority by the specialists in educational | | psychlogy. He argues, from his tests, that there should be | Imore adult learning and less effort to keep child-| ‘ren in school.

Excepting Belgium, France | suffered more by the World War than any. other | |nation. Her buildings and manufacturing plants | {were destroyed, her farms ruined, her wealth wast- |ed, and her man-power tremendously depleted. To- |day France is one of the most prosperous countries |of the world. From a point of considerable less |gold than some of her neighbors, she now pos- Isesses half as much gold as the United States, and nearly double that of Great Britain. Her economic ipoliclc» are such as to insure industrial activity {to absorb the greater part of her industrial power. | This means increased earnings and increased wealth accumulation, says the Mining Congress Journal. A Paris dispatch states that France with the second largest store of gold in the world may soon turn to the collection of a huge stock of silver to permit France to compete with other nations of Europe.

Polo, like yachting, can never be counted among the ‘““popular” sports, but there are few interna- tional contests that fail to make at least tempor- ary enthusiasts of us all, and, if only because the United States seems to have had possession of the Westchester Cup for a longer time than is perhaps good for herself, as well as for the game, we were disappointed to learn that the British challenge at Meadowbrook had ailed, although in neither game was our team disgraced, while it was cer- |tainly unfortunate that, after the long and arduous training in this country, illness should necessitate a |complete rearrangement of our forces. May Sir| Thomas Lipton be more fortunate in his tireless | effort to relieve America of another trophy she has | held all too long. A more unexpected defeat was| isuffered by Britain at the Women's Games at |Prague, where the German girls, trained on more scientific lines qand timing their arrival at “peak” form to the year's biggest prize, gained a very notable success. Incidents at the Olympiad at Am- sterdam brought women's athletics into some dis- favor, but in two years the girls have made extra-) ordinary progress, and in none of .this summer's international contests has there been farther rea- | son to suspect the stamina and decry the per- formance of “the weaker sex.” 1 Viscount d’'Abernon of London says the world | needs a new drink.
