Kut for the conflict between Russia and Japan, peace might now reign in China. 5 " Before the war and revolution the foreign policy of .the Russia of the czuis was controlled by the country's need for warm-water ports. 'Russian commerce under the soviet government feels no less- the need for year-aiound harbors. Japan's population long ago reached the saturation point of , the country's territory, so her national problem of first importance is territorial expansion. Manchuria has been the "apple of tho eye" of both KussjVund Japaii for more than a score of years and the center of civil wars and other domestic disorders fomented alternately by tho two neigh boring powers. 1 i . , , , .; Tpi Russia, Manchuria offers the warm-water ports of visitinK i ehiih aha huu c,irh iiniul TV T.,n..n f ..rr . ....

Some teachers have accordingly been hunting jor excuses to get rid of it. In Ohio it has been removed from the list of compulsory subjects in the high schools;, the pupils may study, it or not, as they choose. It is no niore valuable as' a mind trainer, we "are told, than other Tornis of mental gymnastics, and outside or the engineering and n few other professions, high school mathematics algebra, geometry and trigonometry is of little or no practical use lo most persons. ' -. ll is evidently in an' effort to check 'the spread or this it-hellion against their specialty that the mathematical as sociation has decided on reforms.' It will be interesting to know that they propose to tr.kp the drudgery out of the subject. In the elementary schools some success has been attained in making the children enjoy problems in addition, subtraction, multiplication and division by playing at shop keepingthat is, making n game of the study of arithme tic. It is to Ik- hoped that the mathematicians will lie equally successful in making high school mathematics entertaining. Have You Tried Our Pies? v-.--.lhcy are just bke M-.M,.,. Ke.
