In its health ic h would have thou news the United h service says “Who ht that the tin can a menace to the public health? The expert laria investigators have found that discarded tin cans con- taining rain water are breeding places for the mosquito which is the sole agent in spreading malaria. Empty tin cans have no business about the premises anyway, but if we must dec- orate our back vards, let's see to it that the can has a hole in the bot- tom.” This is a matter which ought to get much greater attention than it does, for there is a double service that can be rendered by cleaning up the old tin cans wherever they may be. Not only do they cause a most untidy ap- pearance wherever they are thrown about a yard or lot, which in itselt should be enough for those who are responsible for their being there to stop the practice, but when it is real- ized that they serve as a breeding place for mosquitoes, a pest which is most unwelcomed even though it were not the extensive disease carrier that it is, no further urging ousht to be required to eliminate the cause inso- far as the discarded tin can is con- cerned. There is no excuse in 99 cases out of 100 for throwing tin cans out of the backdoor to go where they may and to remain where they stop. It is invariably the result of thoughtless- ness well as a disregard for the appearance of the surrounding prop- erty, all of which can be easily ove: come if there is the proper disposi- tion, and an understanding of the dangers that are connected with it. It is, however, not always in the DPoorest sections of the city that such conditions prevail for the willingness to make somebody else’s unused lot or in a dumping place invariably in most sections, but which would quickly end If each one lived up to his responsibilities to his neigh- bor as well as to himself. GERMAN RESPCNSIBILITY. Ever siuce the allies have taken possession of Saloniki they have shown the disposition to reimburse the Greeiss for any losses which such temporary occupation may have caused. That may have been the rea- son for the presentation to General Serrail, commander of the allled forces, of a bill for damages amount- ing to a million and a quarter which it is fizured was caused by the airship raids which have been made in that section by the Teutonic allies. That he could not accept the responsibility for that can be readily appreciated and it must be admitted that the French general acted within the man- ner that might have been expected when he referred the Greek officlals, as claimed, to Germany for the col- lection of the bfll. It could hardly be expected that the allies would admit responsibility for the damage which was inflicted upon Greek property by the actions of the central powers. It is possible to control that which is done by those under his command but General Ser- rail could not attempt to reimburse Greece for the manner in which the indiscriminate dropping of bombs up- on Saloniki by the Teutons has occa- sioned serious loss. Those attacks were not confined to the military po- sitions which the allies occupied, but were delivered with the abandon which has characterized them in other countries, where private property has been destroyed and defenseless men, women and children killed. This action by Commander Serrail is only what might have been expect- ed under the circumstances. He in- sists that Germany must settle for the damage which it has done to the Greeks, and though it may be difficult to collect the bill now, there can be no question but what Greece will be taken care of if the war favors the allies. THE OSBORNE CASE. Thus far there appears to be a complete vindication for Thomas Mott Osborne, warden at Sing Sing prison, whose activity in behalf of prison re- form has brought about much oppo- sition. One of the indictments which were secured against him has fallen to the ground. From the decision given by Supreme . Court Justice Tompkins the charge of perjury, which was made agalnst him’failed because it could not be supported ‘in :law. It was a case in which it has been repeatedly maintained "thatiiall the facts should be had before; judgment should be rendered even-by the pub- *c, but”there was. not:the.foundation R g e e N e N W for the case which warranted the tak- ing of the evidence, however much that may have been desired. It was with difficulty that the por- tion of the hearing which has taken place was secured by Mr. Osborne and inasmuch as the prosecution is unwilling to go ahead with the other indictments it is possible that nothing further will be done about them, but thus far there has been nothing in- troduced which shakes the confidence of those who have persistently backed the warden. ‘Whether the dismissal of the indict- ment will mean the immediate return of Mr. Osborne to the duties which he was forced to relinquish remains to be seen. That he should be allowed to carry out to a definite conclusion the work which he has undertaken cannot be questioned. To end it where it is would be a serious mistake. He has galned instead of lost as the sit- uation is at the present time and every facility should de afforded him to demonstrate beyond a doubt that he is either right or wrong In the ideas which he has concerning reforms in penal institution. CHANCE TO DEMONSTRATE AVIA- TION SERVICE. In the expedition which has been started into Mexico for the purpose of capturing Villa, this country is go- ing to have the opportunity for the first time of putting into use the aviation branch of the army. General Pershing is going into territory which has few if any raflroad accommoda- tions, a desert region and mountainous country, in an effort to locate those who are thoroughly acquainged with every nook and corner. Not only will he need to be in communication with all his forces but any information which he can obtain regarding the movement of the enemy is bound to be of value, and it can be appreciated that the wireless and the aeroplane are bound to be of the greatest bene- fit in this connection. Thus it can be appreciated that the claim is rot too radical when it is maintained by aviation enthusiasts that every aeroplane will be worth a thousand soldiers in this campaign. The aviator is bound to be of inval- uable use not only for messenger ser- vice but for the purpose of scout duty. The protection which can be furnish- ed through such a service is invalua- ble. It has been recognized during the Mexican revolution and used to a limited extent but it must be appre- ciated that the opportunity for trying out the merits of the aviation corps cannot be overlooked. It will not be surprising if the help that is rendered by the air squad proves of such a character as to call greater attention to the lack of preparation to meet just such an emergency than has ever been given in the past. The situation in Europe should be sufficfent but it is apparent that the present trouble with Mexico will bring the matter home witi: greater emphasis ATTACKING THE CATERPILLARS. Recognizing the need of exterminat- ing the sypsy moths, Prof. O'Kane of the department of entomology of New Hampshire state college not only be- fieves that effective work can be done by starving the young ones, but urges that such be done by removing the birch and oak, the prevailing hard- wood trees, upon which the caterpil- lars of less than two weeks old feed. This is what he is practicing in a number of model woodlots scattered over that state for the purpose of pro- tecting the other trees. In that section, however, birch and oak do not grow so freely as they do in other localities. Pine is to be found in abundance but it furnishes little sustenance for the baby cater- pillars, so that if they can be Killed off by starvation through the sacri- fice of the birch and oak, he considers a benefit has been gained thereby. However various states may work {to keep down the pest, it is to be un- derstood that it is a matter which ought not to be neglected. The pest should be fought at every opportuni and it cannot help but be realized that much good has been accomplish- ed in this state by the removal and burning of the egg masses. Millions of eggs have thus been disposed of and it means much less work and the same results are obtained without the | sacrifice of the trees if every one who | is Interested in placing a check upon the pest does his part. The ypSY moth Is a destroyer of vegetation to such an extent that it ought to re- quire little urging to get the whole countryside interested in destroying it, but it is chiefly through the lack of attention concerning this and the tent caterpillar that they multiply so rap- 1dly and do so much damage. EDITORIAL NOTES. March still has plenty of which to make up its mind as it will make its last kick. time in to when The end of the Osborne case indi- cates that it would have been much better had it not been begun. Fashion may decree that gowns will be simpler this spring, but the less there are to them the more they usually cost. With Bulgaria facing another loan and food riots, there can be little ‘wonder that these are anxious times in the Baikans. Though rated as a pacifist the new secretary of war has just the oppor- tunity that he needs to try that last syllable on' Villa.

He also aid- production Euripides’ “Iphigenia in Tauris was given in the Yale Bowl last spring under the auspices of the Dramatic ducing in this_country a counterpart held every year in England during the first week of July. This regatta is by far the most important of all the Eng- lish rowing competitions, and college | and schoolboy crews come from all parts of the United Kingdom to take part in the races. There is also pres- ent at the English Henley a fair sprinkling of foreign crews. It is at this regatta that the race for the grand challenge cup open to all the world is held, the cup which at present is in the possession of the Harvard College Rowing Assoclation. The idea of the Philadelphians to hold a simi- lar set of races in this country, of which the distance rowed shoud be the same as that of the English Henley, has met with some success. Each vear many of the eastern colleges and schools have sent crews to compete. The chief difficulty which faces the American scheme is the immense size of our country. The distance to be traversed by the men and their boats well night prevents a representative national regatta such as is the Eng- lish Henley. In the American re- gattas so far no boats have come from the Western collegs and schools, and of the eastern states but few colleges have sent their first crews. This year the Yale navy hopes to be represented by more than one crew, but, with the exception of the second _university, nothing definite has been decided up- on. The second crew should give a good_account of itself.- At least four members of the combination, which so ably defeated the Harvard second at New London last June, will have places in the boat, and the vacant seats wil be filled by members of last year's victorious freshman crew. The second vi of John Masefield, noted English poet, to New Haven on Friday, was a most interesting event in the literary history of the universi- ty. Yale was the first American col- lege as well as the last at which Mr. Masefield lectured during his visit to the United States. He salils for Eng- land, Saturday, where he will either go into the work of the Red Cross or else go at once to the front. He had not decided which he would do when he left New Haven. Mr. Masefield, be- fore leaving New Haven, visited the Elizabethan Club, the old Brick Row Print and Book Shop, and was enter- tained at a dinner in his_ honor by members of the English Departments of the Coliege and Sheff. Upon inter- view the poet gave his most interest- ing ideas as to the difference between the English and the American under- graduate. The former, he thinks, trained to be critical rather than ap- preciative of literature and art, and he belleves that we are inclined to be & great deal more appreciative than crit- ical. Another fundamental difference between the two, Mr. Masefield thinks, is in the matter of maturity. The English student develops far later in life than the American. Mr. Mase- fleld did not confine his remarks to the American and the English undergrad- uate. He discussed at some length the probable effect of the present war on English literature, and English so- ciety. The university swimming team de- feated Harvard in the Carnegle pool last Monday evening by the score of 44 to 9. The Harvard team was out- classed in every department and_ex- hibited a great lack of practice. _This was the first swimming contest be- tween the two colleges in three years The final arrangements for the event were completed last week after a pro- longed period of negotiations, and Harvard only consented to enter the meet with the provisions that Yale bar freshman performers from the events. Inasmuch as Harvard is not a mem- ber of the Intercollegiate Swimming Association, the results of Monday evening in no way effect Yale's inter- collegiate standing. Each year with the increase in the college registration the difficuity of accommodating the students in _the three upper classes increases. Dean Jones has presented a partial solution of this problem by dividing the dor- mitory rooms into three sections: those rooms suitable for occupation by three men; those which two men can occup; and the rooms limited to one occupant. Since formerly rooms which ordinarily accommodate two men with comfort have often been crowded to an undesirable capacity by the occu- pation of three men, and rooms suit- able for three men have often been occupied by two men, Dean Jones' so- lution seems quite practicable. The senior class at present numbers ap- proximately 2S1. When these men graduate in June their places will be taken by the members of the junior class which numbers 40 men. The sophomore class, which will occupy the Oval, has 396 men, and there is normal space in the Oval for 300 men. At the present time a great many requests have already been made for permission to take a third man in a suite, partly to accommodate a larger number. but partly for economical reasons. It fre- quently happens that the least desir- pled by three men, and since it is necessary for more than the number to be assigned to rooms, is it well to indicate occupant. Some of the studies are in many cases double windows. partial solution of the problem con- sists in making three divisions of dor- mitory rooms: first, those which can, without actual discomfort, be occupled ‘by three men; second, those which can not be occupied by more than two men; lastly, those which must be lim- ited to one occupant. If the students in the various classes divide accord ingly, and 1£ rome are assigned to the|oWwn delinquencies caused her father different sets of applicants as indicat- ed above, it would be possible—with & minimum. of “discomfort to accommo- date the largest possible number of men, and this is the plan proposed for the coming year. By this plan, the practice of putting three men in un- suitable quarters would be obviated, and it would make possible the hous- ing of all college men in dormitories. next month between Yale and University of Chicago. title, for Chicago holds _the champlonship of the Conference Lea- will probably take place when the Yale team takes its eastern trip to the ‘West.
