NIOW YOUIC, (AP) To-opcra- lion, among the colleges of the world to establish an official course of travel und study in foreign coun tries, was the subject of an address delivered In this city by Marcus M. Marks, of New York, before Ihe tenth annual meeting of the Asso ciation of American rollcgcH, Tho ultlinnle hope for a real world peace lies In International education, und the, colleges of the world muy well take an active ahd united Interest In the development, Mr. Marks argued. "In a relatively small way, ''he continued, "the ad vantages of travel abroad have been long recognized; groups of students have been coming and go ing; privately organized travel bureaus uro multiplying; several colleges have adopted official courses In oilier countries; 1ml to secure the desired, far reaching re sult, Ihe colleges of tho world should formally cooperate to de velop tho Idea, of International travel, Including recognized courses of study, und bring their united ex perience to bear on the, great work; foreign truvel arid study should be come not as at present a sporadic effort but on official college funo Don, a sla-ted college extension. It Is necessary that the best, inluda of all the colleges und universities roncentralo on this greut cause. Outside of the advantages of tho work, the direct benefits to tho col leges ihomseiveH, would be many; this new opportunity for continu ous touch with the students during the vacation periods would bring great advantages to Ihe college fac ulties; many of the professors would thus incidentally see urn tho otherwise unattainable opportunity Ito travel abroad Hi their own and their students' interests; further more, both student and professors would bring back to their college much new Information and fresh spirit. "Nearly all tho educational lead ers with whom I have discussed this greut plan are heartily in Its favor. Tho lime for action Is now, Tho financial side, must be bundled by a strong committee of practical nun inspired with the great pos sibilities of this movement. "Steamship compunles and other havo advised mo that many econ omies will be effected through dealing with largo numbers of travelers; still, even with reduced expenses, many deserving students would not be ublo to undertake tho trip, and largo sums will bo requir ed to establish scholarships to pro vide tlie opportunity. , TRY US On Delicious Apples Potatoes gOFQlbOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO o o o o o o o o o Onions- . . n . , g o o o o Real Bargain Used O , o. ,E TOUniNO OAR o o: VRINO CAR Ol VI o o a o o o a o o a o P , o o P V p o We HaJo OlIUPMODB 9 r DODGE JTO "in i in i minimi miii ft O - sV" o Singers, Speakers Everybody!
