A Progressive College

"Earlham College la now more than abe belongs to the people. It It they must serve."

These words of President Kelly are moat particularly well timed and bappy. Earlham knows that she has come into her own. This Bignal triumph means more to her than to the millions which great universities are receiving. The time has not been so long ago when people turned to the east

for their educational inspiration. And while this is largely so and perhapa always will continue it is by no means certain that the eastern insti-

' tutions are not forced to turn to the ; and their ideals. Nor Is this to be wondered at. The same phenomenon may be American civilization. The truth of it is that within the

shock. It is learning of the west and the west is learning that it has t something which the east has not. It will be easily understood when it is remembered that it is only a few weeks since Theodore Roosevelt broke out in admiration of the Uni

fy verslty of Wisconsin.

1 it was not oy acciaent. I In history, political science and political economy the University of y Wisconsin has done more that actually counts in the scheme of the life

of the individual than any other university in the country. And the effeet Is that the state is the best state for the common every day citizen a e a II a la na h fl 4 Via a n-ntr APntviArir nnrl 1 r f WW I i r W trtorQ Tst Tr)A Inrlt.

. force of the technical work of Puddue the engineers are forever leaving

y the state to tackle the world's work. , There is danger in speaking in general terms, but when we say that Indiana State university is not progressive, we mean that it is being left behind by the work of the University of Wisconsin and the University of

Michigan. Universities and colleges are net built nor changed in a minute but it seems certain that much can be done in Indiana in the colleges and at . the state institutions to help or hurt the idealistic progress of the people. The state university is hampered by the form of trusteeship which divorces it from contact with the state itself which pays the bills. And while there will Immediately arise defenders who will say that the form of trusteeship is the only thing that makes it safe it can also be said authoritatively that the self-perpetuating form of trusteeship has also had , much to do with the injection of the whole situation into Indiana politics. Indiana politics has been and largely is reactionary. Indiana University is in spots progressive, but the Indiana University is not the leader that it should and could be. If we were amenable to the ordinary political strings which control the policies of newspapers we should scarcely dare say these things about this institution. The State University is a powerful political influence. Its alumni are very loyal and every legislature is dominated by this influence. Xor Is our attitude to be construed as unfriendly toward the State University. It Is not because of the money which is given by each legislature to the State University but it is because the institution is a re-act-tlonary force at the present time. ,

With this situation it is our hope that Earlham in the seat of the most progressive community of Indiana known not .only as such inside but outside the state in money centers and in the capital of the country Itself that Earlham college should stand for these same things. It is not a matter of politics it does not enter the question of partisanship it is simply tho truth that should be taught by every university and every college in opposition to the forces ot greedy materialism which are so sadly wrecking this country. Therefore when we congratulate Earlham we do so because this community would never have come to the aid of Earlham if it had not felt that in It was the true expression of progressive principles just becoming crystal ized. This is a matter of personcl In the teaching force and ot the executive department. This is also a matter of the spiritual outlook which must be present. It does not concern the spending of money. It does not concern the adding of new courses it is the Intangible atmosphere of the place. Does the history that is taught in Earlham prepare its students for tbe conditions which all America Is facing? We think that Mr. Harlow Lindley is not by any means a re-actionary. Xor does William N Trueblood (an untrammeled thinker) fall under that category. David Dennis . in his pursuit of biological science gives a range of progressive thought which fits in with the work of which we speak. And it may be a very good thing to call attention to the Department of Latin now in the hands of Mr. John Rea. Because many people in this community have seen him on the streets from his childhood it will not occur to them that his scholarship is one of the thoroughest and that his Ideals are those of the idealistic man of action today in America. Elbert Russell In his department has given a very good illustration of what we mean. - And though we mention no more we feel satisfied that the whole Earlham situation is well represented along this line.

It Is a pleasure therefore to have the assurance of President Kelly that Democratic influences are to grow and that the feeling of responsibility to the people is held foremost on this occasion When the people have come to the support of Earlham. Things look bright for Earlham and this community.

JOHN H. HAMMOND TYPICAL AMERICAN

Ably Represents the United States at the Coronation of King George. (National News Association) London, June 23. The American people have always been represent ed in England by men eminently typical of the qualities of which they, as a nation, are most proud, and there is no exception in the case of the special ambassador to the crowning of King George and Queen Mary Thursday, and his naval and military aides are also Americans, every inch of them. John Hays Hammond, General Adolphua Washington Greeley and Admiral Charles E. Vreeland proved themselves well qualified for the parts of honor they played In the historic event and upheld the position of the United States thoroughly as effectively as did the last American special ambassador to England, Colonel Theodore Roosevelt, who acted in that capacity at the funeral of the late King Edward VII In the ceremonies at Westminsted Abber, Mr. Hammond shared royal honors with the following envoys from other countries: Duke of Aosta, of Italy; Prince Henry and the Crown Prince of Germany: Archduke Karl Franz, of Austria-Hungary; Prince Johann George, of Saxony; Prince Henry of Netherlands; the Crown Prince of Roumania; Prince Fushimi, of Japan; Prince Chun, son of the re gent of China, and the Crown Prince of Servia. , His Characteristics. The two most noteworthy things about Mr. Hammond are his large vigorous personality and his clever. helpful wife. Together with the heir esses of royal rank. Mrs. Hammond was presented at Queen Mary's draw ing room several weeks ago. However, Mrs. Hammond had met the Queen on several occasions before, when Her Majesty ranked as the Duchess of York. The first of these meetings took place at one of Queen Victoria's drawing rooms, when Mrs. Hammond was presented to the present Queen, also the Dowager Queen, Alexandra; King Edward VII., and George V. She became popular with the British roy alty from the first because of her keen wit. and during the several years' resi dence of the Hammonds in London, she attended many functions of court and state. Her position today was as the highest in official rank of any Ameri can woman. Handsome as are her gowns and costly as are her jewels which she wore Thursday, many of them of great historic value and priceless, It may be said that Mrs. Hammond and her hus band were the two most Democratic people who attended the coronation festivities. Introduction of Mr", and Mrs. Ham mond would read like this: Mr. and Mrs. Hammond, of Washington, D. C and New York, formerly of California, Mexico, South Africa and London. In all these countries, the Hammonds lived for some few years at a time, In London, where they lived for sev cn years after their return from the South African Boer country and its exciting life, they are well known Only the Hammonds know just how it happened, but not long after Mr. Ham mond took a London residence, he was hobnobbing with those in the inner circles of state and royalty. This too, in spite of his having been one of the leaders of the reform party in the Transvaal. For this he was con demned to death by the Boer presi dent, Kruger. For six months, un der a hot African sun, he languished in Jail, until finally, through the faithful activity of his wife and his Ameri can friends, he was released by Kru ger with the payment of a $125,000 fine. Admired by Edward. But King Edward, who admired America's big successful business men Is said to have been attracted to Mr, Hammond for his work as the expert mining engineer, who, with Cecil Rhodes and Barney Barneto developed the great gold mines of the Transvaal. Returning from this great task to America he was closely associated with the Guggenheims in their mining operations in the West. His political ambitions led him to offer himself as a candidate for the Vice Presidency along with Mr. Taft,' but his offer was rejected by the leaders. After the campaign, he became head of the Na tional League of Republican clubs. graduate of Yale and an old personal friend of President Taft, his name is now being linked more closely than ever with the position of running mate for the President at the next election His close companionship with Presi dent Taft caused him to be one of the first men considered for the special ambassadorship to the Coronation, and it is declared his advice was followed as the selecting of the military and naval aides.

SAVE THE BABES"

Chicago Has Campaign On Against Summer Peril. Chicago, June 23. Between the ba bies of the congested district, now facing their annual crisis in "summer sickness" and other ills of hot weather, another saving agency the Civic Federation of Chicago has interpos ed itself. With Dr. George B. Young, the city's new health commissioner, already vitally interested in the infant welfare movement, the health department acting as a clearing house for the efforts of a score of supporting organizations, the federation plans to continue the campaign of education which resulted last year in a marked decrease in the proportional infant mortality rate. Posters with pictures that any moth er, whatever her native tongue cannot fail to understand, and accompanying text in a half dozen languages soon will make their appearance on walls and fences in the quarters where the peril to infant life is greatest. The danger of meat, bread and all solids as foods and of coffee, tea and soda water as beverages will be depicted graphically. Pictures and instruc tions just as strikingly displayed will tell the mother that pure milk and boiled water are necessary to save the baby. These posters first will be displayed in the First, Eighth, Ninth, Tenth, Eleventh, Sixteenth, Seventeenth, Twenty-second and Twenty-ninth wards. They will show a cartoon by Ralph Wilder which illustrates the fact that infants, given food in plenty, but not of the right kind, literally starve to death. Although the campaign Is to be. con tinued on lines broader than were possible last year, it will be with com-, paritively small expense to the federation. W. B. Robbins, president of the American Posting Service, has agreed to put the posters In place without charge. The lithographing will be done at cost by Joseph Deutsch, president of the Edwards and Deutsch Lithographing compand, who also has contributed liberally to the campaign fund. The activities of the Civic Federa tion will be in co-operation with the general infant welfare campaign in which the various civic forces are engaged under the direction of Dr. Young, and under the immediate su pervision of Dr. Caroline Hedger, field manager of the campaign. In connec tion with the announcement that its 3 Your Oxfords Ski

campaign had been reopened, the Civic Federation sent a communication to Mayor Harrison commending his selection of Dr. Young as health commissioner.
