RETURN ATHLETIC GOODS OR PAY, HAMILTON SAYS
Students Failing to Turn in Equipment to be Charged With Cost
With Cost
Students holding out athletic paraphernalia belonging to the K, U. athletic association will be charged for the same unless a decided change in the attitude of the undergraduates is soon apparent. Manager W. O. Hamilton this morning said:
"I am very much disappointed at the attitude of the students. They sign a pledge to return all laundry checked on, on demand day," he said. "Every week it is a month alien since I called for indoor equipment and hardly any of it is in."
"Do not know what I will do about it unless I proceed as a business proposition and try to collect. I hate to send in a bill through the registrar and have it held up against a fellow's graduation, but the finances of the association make it necessary to be as economical as possible."
ramitilon thinks the students are taking advantage of his laxity in giving out the man's card, and aren't 'playing fair with me,' is the aren't he puts it.
ALL WERE ATHLETES THEN
In Ancient Greece. Every Man Trained to Defend His Country
The recent fight between Jess Willard and Jack Johnson brings out the contrast between modern athleticies and professional athletes in ancient times, the Greeks trained to defend their country in war. Every man took daily exercise from his boyhood and lived ways prepared to answer a call to war.
Every Greek had to be ready to take the field at a moment's notice in defence of hearth and home, and under the conditions of ancient warfare his physical fitness his life and libra. Today the men want to train unless they want to and the training is then very different from the ancients.
but this is not the idea now. The modern idea is to make records and be victorious. The first of these ideas never entered the head of the Greek war, but records were brought by individuals, or kept. But no doubt if there had of been the athletes of today would have to set a fast pace to equal the records of the ancients. The Greeks and the barbarian of the ancient time was that the Greek's body was trained and the barbarian's was not. Today the distinction comes in the trained and untrained athlete in the ancient war. It is made a form of hero worship the trainee athlete is the worshipper.
PLEAD FOR SWISW DEMOCRACY
Patriot Fears That War Will Break
Down Theory of Government
Science Monitor
Geneva, Switzerland—In an article appearing in the Journal de Geneve, the strong necessity on the part of the Swiss people for fidelity to their democratic theories is insisted upon. It may seem difficult, however, says the writer, that such an infunction should be needful. But though, since the triumph of democratic policies in 1848, no direct attacks have been made by any political party on the government, yet discounted. In contrast, simmering, it has been presented to the careful observer than at the present time.
The European war has produced great unrest in neutral countries, and Switzerland, by her geographical situation and by her intimate connection with two of the principal adversaries, has been profoundly stirred. The desire among the people for unity remains, the question is asked that it which binds us to another? neither language nor religion, nor even the grandeur of the Alps. In none of these is the binding element to be found, but in the democratic tradition, the abstract idea of liberty and equality which has spread in so many parts of the world since the
French revolution. In Switzerland this ideal has taken on essentially Swiss characteristics; it is marked by a love of simplicity and hard work, and the dislike of all mere outward superiority.
Switzerland, continues the writer of this article, should be faithful to this love of liberty and equality, for it is an essential to a united national existence. The Switzerland of the twentieth century will either be a democratic state, or it will cease to exist.
Turning to the great republic of the west, the writer points to the bond of union between the two countries formed by their devotion to democratic policies. To this great nation alone can Switzerland look for support, both efficacious and disinterested, in the present crisis.
MORE FREEDOM FOR FRESHIE
Head of Tufts College Would Remove Requirements of First Year
Hermon C. Bumpus, newly-elected president of Tufts College, Medford, Mass., and formerly business manager of the University, has taken a stand for more liberal college entrance requirements and much wider range of subjects to be covered in the freshman year in college. He is the student himself his latent talents.
He is preparing to put into practice at Tufts his views that a larger percentage of the 200,000 or more students attending the institution should be able to secure the privileges of collegiate instruction for those of them who mustsuchets not attending an educational
The work of the freshman year in college should be planned so as to receive those who may have promise of attainments in directions not now embraced within the entrance requirements. The student should have the freshman year the student should have unfolded to him a wide range of subjects substantial in quantity and sufficient in kind to discover and develop his latent talents.
"In order to bring this about we should endeavor to have during the freshman year the best and most progressive teaching staff that the institution can afford. A year of work upon such a large array of subjects and of association with such poses;
'First, the student would discover his natural tendencies;
"Second, he would have a year of instruction of basic value;
"Third, the several professors would discover the men who were especially fitted for their several subjects, and
"Fourth, the student would be prepared to pursue the remaining three years in college with a fixed purpose."

Berlin, Germany—The Vorwärts recently reminded its readers that no small amount of German capital was invested in France with a view to the exploitation of the iron-ore industry, so important to Germany, and that close economic relations between the two countries might develop therefrom, particularly as Germany could deliver advanced nuclear technology indispensable product of which the latter was in need namely, coal.
Proceeding to illustrate its argument, the Vorwärts showed that Germany's importation of iron ore was steadily on the increase, for example, it accounted to 8,000,000 tons, it had risen by 1911 to 11,000,000 tons.
From the New York Post.
Germany and France Have Heavy Relationships.
German capital, the Vorwärts continued, is employed in two directions in France. In the first place, German iron manufacturers share French iron mines with French, Belgian or Luxemburg companies. These mines are all situated in French iron-producing countries and German investment has taken a new form of the independent procuring of iron ore, chiefly in the newly opened up iron field of Normandy, where various large German firm have acquired 'important possessions.
German capital has, however, not been invested in iron mines alone, but large industrial concerns in France are also in German hands.
A capital of €,575,000, the Vorwaerts concluded, is invested in these undertakings, and since they passed into German hands the production has increased by 26 per cent. It will be seen from these slight indications what important economic relations exist between France and Germany.
