ANNAPOLIS, June 28—Reduction in the number of civilian teachers at the Naval Academy, due to a policy of retrenchment, is believed to be _the beginning of the end for civilian teachers and a return to the old policy of having practically all the instruction given by naval of- ficers. Twenty-three civilian teachers, out of a total of seventy-two, not includ- ing those in the department of physi- cal training, have been dropped, and the number included several who had been connected with the teaching force of the academy twgnty years. The reduction amount to practically one-third of the whole force. Ten of those who failed of reap- pointment were attached to the d partment of modern language: seven to that of English, four to mathematics and one to marine en- gineering and naval construction, One instructor in the department of physical traiging was also dropped. May Appeal to Congress. There is no doubt that an appeal wlill be made to Congress in the mat- ter, particularly as it is claimed that the standard of education will drop on account of the drastic cut in civil- ian instructors, who are trained and experienced teachers. Many Navy officers who hold that as much instruction of midshipmen as possible should be by naval of- ficers. Others hold that in the gen- eral branches, better instruction fs glven by outside teachers. In 1914, following an investigation of the system of instruction, a large number of civilian teachers were in- stalled, and the number has been in- creased from time to time. Now it is feared, the force will be cut t& such an extent that it will exert little in- fluence in the education of midship- men. Rear Admiral Henry P. Wilson, su- perintendent of the academy, stated that the reduction was made neces- sary by the decreased appropriation made by Congress for the payment of instructors. He also said that the gelection, of those to be retained were made for the best interests of the Naval Academy. NEW THOUGHT HISTORY COURSE IS BEING GIVEN American U. Also Has Summer Class in Economic Changes of Present Day. Two timely and interesting courses are being offered at American Uni- versity for tHe summer term in con- nection with the convention of the National Education Association, which opens today.

It is given by Dr. Tansill. The xecond is concerned with the economic changes of the present day, and is designed to bring out to’ just | what extent the accepted standards of economic thought are actually experience. The various economic systems that have func. tioned in history will be briefly sur- a prin- efpal discussion. by Dr. Drury. A third course that will be of spe- cial interest to candidates for ad- It is given is concerned with is designed to set the student straight on the work he is doing for a thesis in order that he may not find a great deal of his ¢fforts wasted.

Bankers, computing at a reasonable rate of interest, believe the fund should be around $250,000, yielding at least $10.000 a year. To date, only about $20,000 in awards have been made from the fund. e o Before the revolution in France it ‘was customary when a gentleman was_invited out to dinner for him to end his servant”with a knife, fork and spoon, or, if he had no servant, he carried them with him in his pocket.
