Stirred as -the nation's veterans have been by the tragic events accompanying the B. E. j P; eviction, the majority of them will : certainly not listen with (sympathy to threats of violence to the president, I either now or later. If the president must be blamed for a. police-blunder, so must Waters and 'his fellow lead-. era. Waters ' generally' has shown himself a- capable, level-headed lead er, often too considerate of the laws for bis mure energetic iollowers. But the 'tragedy was Just as much the failure of his leadership and that of his fellows as It was the failure of the 'authorities. I At Eugene man, returned from the B. B.

From this distance It looks as though Waters and; other leaders had also failed their boys In Washington. When a man accepts leadership of such' a company , the B. e.

John 8: 31, 32. THE' TENTH OLYMPIAD . The world s greatest spectacle of sport is- now in progress m Los Angeles. The cream of the athletic prowess of fifty' nations is concentrated there for the mammoth sixteen-day contest which has attracted many thousands- of spectators. The word- "Olympiud" is the Greek term! for a period of ; foul1' year's, which was the interval between successive cele brations of!;he Olympic games, a custom probably instituted about 7-76 B. G, and continued regularly until abolished by 'TheddosiutHn 394 A. D. The' ancient Greek Olympic games were really just a part f gieat religious festival honoring Zeus and the other gods who were believed to dwell on the summit of Mount Olympus. The games consisted of five different events to test the skill of the young men, and the conquerors were highly honored. In 1896 the idea of the Olympic games was revived after considerable missionary work by Baron de Cpubertin of France, and in that year the event was held at Athens, Greece. The games began on April 6 and continued for five 6ajs. Since that time the event has been held every fourth yeai" with the exception of 1916 when the war prevented its being: held in Berlin as scheduled. Baron de Coubertin, in agitating for the revival of the gafaes, said: "The important thing in the Olympic games is not .to win, but to take part. The important thing in life is hot the triumph, but the struggle. The essential thing is noi to have .coiqgcred but to have fought well-. To spread thfese precepts is to build up a stronger and more valiant anH, above all, a more scrupulous and more generous human it." ' Such are the ideals upheld by the modem Olympic games ideals even higher than those of the ancient Greeks. The games today are international in scope, promoting good will a no Dunging men ana women ot many races into friendly competition; the original Olympics were held strictly within the narrow confines of a single nation, and were really a means of training young men in methods of warfare, that they might make slaves of the peoples of other races. In fuct, war was the principal occupation of the men of ancient Greece, and the Olympiad frequently came in the middle of military campaign. But, unlike modern men, the Greeks always postponed their wars in favor of the Olympiad; wherever they might be when the summer solstice of the fourth year came around, they laid down their arms and gathered on the banks of the Alpheus river near Olympia for their great religious festival. Perhaps the modern Olympiad might be developed into a mparts of stopping wars. The event i3 gradually growing in, scope and significance. More nations are participating every qundrennium. The entertaining nations do all in their power to make the visitors welcome, and to make their stay enjoyable. Tho Olympic ganws are certainly one of the healthiest influences in intoinatjonal relations today, gradually eating away racial barriers', and building up the bounds of friendship through their appeal to the universal ideal of good sportsmanship. ln.
