Until we give as much time, care and study to the raising of our children, as we do to raising pigs, and sheep, and chickens, I wonder if we can hope for a better race?" Dr. El mer Bryan, president of Colgate Col lege, in his final address before the Richmond Chautauqua Friday afternoon.

Dr. Bryan said that he understands that the mothers and fathers of this country love their children infinitely more than they love the cattle they raise but that he questions whether or not they give nearly as much thought to the science of raising these tremendously important possessions of theirs, as they do their live stock. "Only once in a thousand times, does the young man who Is a thoroughbred decide of his own accord to go into the teaching profession," said President Bryan. Is of course because in this profession they are paid such miserable, puny, salaries, and I hope and l-ray that the day will come when the fathers and mothers of this country, and all the other tax payers, will see that they are being cheated unless they provide the beet and finest teachers possible for their children. V'I hope the time is not many years off when all the teachers and professors of our children can really be call ed fine enough to be teachers and professors, and this will not be until this kind can afford to enter the pro fession, "What do the people of this coun- tuiB auu uuuvi tiaouuirjiuu, iicuci- Bfin a fl on1 ttia In-nor lin a fit statesmen whnso tnnrorifii then hold i dear? Is it because they lived at beautiful Mount Vernon and Monticello? "Surely not, for if it were what should we think of Lincoln? No, it is becahse we hold dear the ideals for which they stood, and which they made those of our country." In closing this part of his address, Dr.

Bryan said: "He is silly who Ignores the high rost of living today for we the people must live, but he Is wilkedly sillier, if he fails to pay the price of high living, the prire of right thinking, of right thoughts." Dont Judge League. About the League of Nations, the speaker said: "I saw the manuscript of the League of Nations. It was written on good raper, and it was as great as a Montgomery Ward catalogue some of you know how large that i3. "I read several paragraphs of the covenant. I know something about it, but I say to you that I do not know whether or not the League of Nations is right because I have not had time to study it.

If I began the study of that volume today with my knowledge of history it would take me at least two months. "Now do not misunderstand me. We can not all be expected to read the League of Nations through with historical and political understanding and make a perfect decision; we are most of us far too busy with our daily tasks, which we must do in order that we may live, but I do say to you, do not try to disapprove of a League of Nation's because of Washington's last speech, or because of the Monroe doctrine for anyone who has read either, knows that there is no reason there. "Washington said we do not want any entangling alliances because we are a 'young and struggling nation' that is not true now. And do not let U3 expose our ignorance by saying that he Monroe doctrine, which was born in the head of an Englishman and handed over to Mr.

Monroe, afterwards taking his name, and which has since been kept through the power of the English fleet, stand3 in the way of us entering a league of nations. "I ask you not to make either of these foolish remarks in discussing the league. I do not tell you whether or not I think the League Is right because I do not yet know."
