Director General JohngBarrett of the Pan-American union carried an im- poftant message to Boston this week vhen he urged them to make their popular motte ‘Get ready for the Panama canal and go after Pan-Amer- -an commerce,” He pointed out to em the greal epportunity for trade which the opening of the canal will give and declared that there should e three steamship lines from New England going into the countries of South and Central America. In those ountries there is a big future and New England can share in the bene- ts, as that undeveloped field offers immense possibilities, Today Ameri- cans are seeing the advantages to be gained by going to and growing up with those countries and where one American was going, even to the Ar- gentine Republic, a few ypars ago, here are ten going today. What Mr. Barrett said to Boston an be assimilated with profit by every port in the New England states and why should not one of those great steamship lines go from Comnecticut? The state has voted a million to stim- ilate steamship business at the port of New Loundon, and the committee is now making efforts to find a line that will do business there. It is probable that it will be many months and pos- sibly years before a steamship line will be making New London a termi- nel, but there must be preparation, and untll the advantages are set forth and the line secured, the million doil- lars of state money will not be ex- pended for the building of wharves. The Grand Trunk is preparing to do a greater business than ever in New Fngland. It is trying to get an en- trance into Boston through a com- pany which will be a subsidiary. If t is successful, it wiil then have lines to all the important porfs in New England—namely, Portland, New Lon- don, Providence and Boston, This would indicate that the Grand Trunk looking to the great .possibilities ahead of New England and might in- dicate what may be expected from that great system in addition to the pvell equipped lines already serving this section. FOR PURE FOOD. The attempt to unseat Congress- man Higgins does not interfere with his interest or efficiency in behalf of the people. As & member of a committee of the department of agriculture he has de- fended the pure food law and in a recent address upon this subject he said: ‘T will join with any gentleman in a properly conceived attempt to im- prove the administration of the pure food law. The record of accomplish- ment by the department of agriculture is the best answer to the charge of inefficiency.’ The law became opera- tive January 1907, and up to July 5, 1911, the secretary has had re- ported to the department of justice 785 cases for prosecution. One thou- sand nine hundred and ninety-two of hese were criminal cases and 773 were sefzure cases. Of these, 1,400 were decided in favor of the govern- ment and only 33 were adverse to the government. During the fiscal year fan L1772 cases were sent by the secretary to the attorney general and | 330 of these were "essfully prose- ited during that y The work of he enforcement of the pure food law vas critically examined by vour com- mittée, It showed a zeal both in the, yreparation and prosecution of cases ely exceeded by administrative of- A law of this nature' vesting such unusual power to be maintained must be enforced with reason and jus- Any other course will rapidly work elther its repeal or emasculation and make impossible of attainment the object sought.” Congressman [iggins n matters of direct cople TS, stands value firm to the NOT IN QUICK DEMAND. The vacant district attorneyship in he United States court at Hartford has been twice tendered attorneys in this state and has been rejected. The Bridgeport Post is authority for the statement that Judge Banks has written Senators Brandegee and McLean that he will not accept an appointment as United States district attorney to succeed John T, Robinson of Hartford. “It was understood at the time the decision was made that Judge Cooper of New Britain was second choice in the matter,” says The Herald, “but while he was not approached by those directly in authority he was spoken to about it by those whose influence ounted for something. He .conclud- however, that he did not want the lace anyway. and now that his sal- as corporation counsel 18 to be in-' reased to within $100 of the amount vd the district attorney the Itkeli- lood of his accepting the appointment s than ever.” The action of the two senators in unison is regarded as political evi- dence of the removal of the fesling of hostility between the McLean and Bulkeley factions and consequently attracted general attention through- eut the state LR of falrness with nemination. reference Mr, propriety and discretion. second to no president the well being of the people. regard tradition, and is even chang- to sacrifice anything to mu’y an am- bition which he even denies has pos- session of him. The American people are to make the choice; and The Bulletin does not believe they will consent to a third term for any man. POOL TO BE ERASED. The National Billiard association has taken steps to make billlard play- ing less obnoxious to women's clubs and church organizations by making “pocket billiards” a substitute title for “pool,” which is French for “hen,” and was taken as a name for the game because of the simple fact that French hens lay sixteen eggs and that sixteen balls, drew the conclusion, some thirty years ago, that the French word “poule,”” meaning “hen,” should be designated as the derivative; es- pecially since this French word meant also an aggregation of players for gambling purposes. Hence, the hen got the blame, But the edict is precipitated be- cause of the widespread misinterpre= tation of the term “pool”—certain classes and individuals giving to it a meaning that it was a playground for gamblers and a rendezvous for mis- creants. These particular classes, get- ting back to the hen again, have in- gambling; whereas, the percentage us- ing the game for that purpose has been small, but enough to cause the change not only in terms but in the style of play. Pocket billiards, there- fore, will henceforth be a commenda- bie substitute. The billiard room keepers, who rep- resent practically every state in the union, were emphatic that the uplift sentiment of genuine reform organiza- tions should not go unheeded:; that, as they form the best class of billlard men, they would see to it that no wora or game, however misplaced or mis- construed, must efface their places of business. Action wag taken by the executive committee looking to the promulga- tion of this ukase and violations of it will be fully prosecuted, EDITORIAL NOTES. 1t is neither a sign of greatness nor Statesmanship for a man to think he is a second Lincoln.

The December ox- aminations by this decision will be postponed until after the Christmas re- cess, and mid-year examinations will begin three weeks after the relumg tion of college work in January. e Jjunior promenade festivities are to be moved to the days immediately preced- ing the beginning of the sccond half- year. In adopting the half-year system, which obtains at practically all other universities, its bearing upon the con- tinuity and effectiveness of the collega work was carefully considered. By the new plan there will be three or four unbroken weeks between Thanksgiving and Christmas, free from the distrac- tions of outdoor athletics, and a similar period of three solid weeks in January, unbroken by the prom. festivities,which have had a demoralizing effect on study in the past. Then it will also re- move the present inequality between the amount of work examined in June and in December, of which there has been much complaint. Incidental to commenting on the bet- ter opportunity the new system will g ouf half-year courses e way, Professor Duncan reported some figures suggestive of the degree to which, in some cases, stu- dents scatter their courses and enmer- gies. In the present senion class 67 men are simultaneously pursuing six different courses; 86 men seven courses; 69 men eight courses; 31 men nine courses, and nine men ten differ- ent courses. In the junior class matters are much the same, nine men taking ten courses, 40 men nine, 110 men eight, $2 men seven, and 38 men six, The new system will enable the stu- dent to concentrate on fewer gubjects at the same time, and thus make his work far more effective. The new system will go into effect in the college year 1913-1914, The “honor system” came before the freshman class of Sheffield Scientific school on Wednesday night, and fol- lowing the example of the two upper classeg, it was passed by a large ma- jority. The votes were 187 for and on- Iy 17 againet. The total vote of the whole school was 481 for, 114 against, a percentage of 81. This means that hereafter in Sheff. the “cribbing” evil that has sprung up widely in the past few years, will be | ended. Every man in the school, by the | terms of the proposal of the Sheffield student council, will be put upon his honor not to give or recelve ald during examinations. It has been a subject digcussed with extreme interest during the past few weeks, and there is a general feeling of satisfaction that the new system, while it is acknowledged a far from perfect means of adjusting the difficuity, is to be giver a trial The Yale gymnasium brought it winter season of classes to a close on Wednesday evening by an exposition of the work of all departments on the main floor, with over a thousand. inter- ested spectators ir attendance. The programme included fifteen interesting events, among them the class work in “body building,” apparatus work, ex- hibition of sparring, one of the boxers being George Borup, ‘93, the Arctic ex-~ plorer, who is thus getthag in shape for his coming trip; fencing pyramid building, advanced work on the parallel bars, horse and other apparatus by the Yale gym. team, weight lifting by Clarence F. Foster, assistant instruc- tor in the gvmnasium, and wrestling. The first of March seems to be pre- eminently a time of feasting in college circles. Some of the larger banquets of the past two weeks have been the h annual of the Yale Dally News, the 20th annual of the Yale Record, Phi Beta Kappa's 182d banquet at Yale, and on Wednesday night of this week the 76th annual feast of the Yale Literary Magazine. Among the speak- ers at the last affair were Tudor Jenks, An Awful Example; Ralph D. Paine, The Lit. and After; Prof. C. U. Clark, Good English, and I'. Hopkinson Smith, The Old Time. Graft, Its Cause and Cure was dis- cussed Wednesday night before the Yale Soclety for the Study of Socialism by Lincoln Steffens, author and pub- Heist.

Yale was the only college that favored the re-elec- tlon of Taft, while the University of Michigan polled 449 votes for Woodrow Wilson, Roosevelt geiting second place with 362, At Michigan Debs, sccialist, recefved 192 votes, and Taft was last with 140. Roosevelt led the fleld by considerable pluralities at the Univer- sity of Pennsylvania, at Cornell, at (hicago, and at Minnesota, The totals were: Roosevelt . 2324 ‘Wilson 1649 Taft .. . 1444 LaFollette . 624 Debs ... 192 Cornell was the strongest supporter of Roosevelt, giving him 766 votes, with Taft 526, and Wilson 516. Yale gave Taft 470 votes, Wilson 127. A college education is not essenti at least In Thomas A. Edison's fleld according to a recent statement by that distinguished inventor. “In my business,’ he said, “if a Yale or a Har- vard man should come to me for em- ployment, I should probably say that there was no place vacant, for I be- Heve that a man without an academic education is as well fitted for my em- ployment as a college graduate, and probably will learn the details quicker. Therefore, while I believe in education, I believe also a technical education is far better than any other kind, not on- ly in my business, but in practically others with which I am acqualnt- ed. The Yale swimming team was able to secure only third place in the intercol- legiates, against Pennsylvania, Prince- ton and Columbia at Philadelphia last! Saturday. At this meet the American record and the intercollegiate record for the plunges were broken by Willis of Pennsylvania, with plunges of 80 and 77 feet 6 inches. On the same night the university gymnasium team won a victory at Princeton by the close score 27-26. The gym. team is entered in the intercol- legiates for its last meet for the sea- son, A recent newspaper rumor that Os- Dborn hall was to be torn down and a new senior dormitory was to be erected in its place, is emphaically denied by Dean ¥\ S. Jones. The facts of the cage are that a number of the class rooms in Osborn will be given up next vear, as the classes will be transferred to the new Wright dormitory at the opposite corner of the campus. Then the Sloane physical laberatory will also afford recitation rooms for Acad- demic classes, when the scientific courses are transferred to the new Sloane laboratory that is nearly com- pleted out on Plerson-Sage square. In this way the inconvenience that was caused by the removal of Alumni hali will be put to an end. Prof. James H.
