The mountains of eastern Tennessee which produced Sergeant York and which in a former time of stress sent a greater proportion of men into the Union army than any other section of the country are the home of a hardy race, filled with wonderful latent possibilities but still held in the grip of poverty and Ignorance. They sent to the American army some of the most perfect physical specimens of men that it received, but one and all they were provincial, Ignorant of schooling, nevertheless filled with the dormant possibilities of a hardy race of Scotch ancestors who peopled the hills a century ago. Bishop Bristol de clared. The war meant en awakening to thousands of boys from the Tennessee mountains. .- They have found it im possible to return to the ways of liv ing that have been followed for gen erations. They are demanding a chance for education, not alone for themselves but for their younger brothers and sisters. Bishop Bristol sees in this the possibility ox a won derful change among the people, whose energies and capabilities have been untouched by the corrupting in fluence of the outside world. Occasionally there has come from the hills an uncouth youth who called for an education. He has returned from his university or college course a minister of the John Wesley type. From like parentage have sprung such men as Lincoln. The true force of the mountain people has been demonstrated many times but the problem has been to awaken more than a scattering few to the desire to come forth Into the world and battle for their ideals. The present move ment which the return of the soldiers has brought about may be . an aus picious one.

STUNTZ SPEAKS Statesman of Methodist Church Ad dresses Capacity Audience In. Sunny-side Edifice. Bishop Homer C. Stuntz, known as the statesman missionary bishop of the Methodist Episcopal church, oc cupied the pulpit at the Sunnyside Methodist church yesterday morning and delivered an eloquent and ap pealing sermon to a capacity congre gation. The bishop took for his text the Apostle Paul'a statement of his indebtedness, not only to the Greek and the wise, but the barbarians and unwise of earth. Paying one's debts to the Individ ual, to the community and to bu manity Is the privilege and obligation will hold a part of the truth and let the rest go. By miracle God pre served this Bible just as it is, and it is a Damascus blade. Think of it! A book written 19 centuries ago and some of it thousands of years ago, and still the 'best seller.'

Bishop Homer C Stuntz of Omaha has been mentioned for the place, as he has served four years as bishop of South America and is conversant with the language and work. Bishop Frank M. Bristol of Chattanooga has also served four rears ln South America and is a Dossible selection. It is probable that few changes will be made In the assignment of bishops to the fall conferences in the areas of the United States and the work will largely fall on each bishop to care for his own area except where emergencies arise.

The Irish troubles were brought up in a multiplicity of ways by members of the audience, but did not elicit a definite statement of po sition from Bishop McConnell. The settlement of the matter is a ques tion of vital concern to the United States, he admitted, because It is a source of friction between this conn try and England. Neither side has been free from serious blunders. Bishop McConnell declared, and a so lution that will clear up the matter is not an easy thing to advance. Bishop McConnell said labor unions have been thrown on the defensive so far as public attitude is concerned.

Mr. Will.iams has appeared before a number of the largest asso ciations of manufacturers in this country and Europe. The Methodist church Is on the eve of launching a movement to establish a line of industrial schools and hospl tals throughout Mexico that will mea one of the greatest steps ln the his tory of that country toward educating the lower classes of people and over coming some of the suffering and misfortune that has afllcted them, ac cording to an announcement made last night by Bishop Homer C Stuntz of Omaha. The move is being made on the lnl tiatlve of Bishop Wilbur P. Thirkleld of the Mexico area and Is not a matte before the present meeting of the board of bishops. . The time is con sidered so auspicious, however, that Bishop Thirkield gave up his plans to attend the conference of the board in order to begin raising money to carry out the work. The announcement of Bishop Stuntz was based on a per gonal letter from Bishop Thirkleld setting forth his plans. Obregon Regime Liked. The Obregon government, in the opinion of the bishop, has proved its ability to cope with the political sit uation and conditions in Mexloo are better today than at any time within the last ten years. The great moneyed Interests of the United States and England that have large oil, mineral and timber holdings in Mexico, and business enterprises that are Inter ested in the building up of that coun try as a source of trade are deeply conscious or tne drawback which ig norance nas placed upon the country. rney are known by Bishop Thir kleld to look with favor on the pres ent Mexican government and are also known to be ready to back a move to place efficient schools and hospi tals In a country where they are so soreiy needed. Million Dollars Sought. With this In view. Bishop Thirkleld is now approaching American inter ests to finance a system of schools an hospitals under his supervision that will be extended later through out the entire country. The bishop is entering the field on a larere scale ana expects to obtain at least J1.000 uuu ii noi more with which to launch his project. Although definite pledges oi tunas nave not yet been obtained, the tone' of his letter indicated that he was highly confident of raising me sum neeaea to start the work. He plans to establish Industrial schools for the niost part where trained teachers from the agricul turai colleges of the United States will Instruct the Mexican youths in animal ana plant husbandry and uiner courses wnicn will help them build up their farms, their cattle and other domesticated animals, aa wplt as gain a general education that will nt mem 10 no tneir full dutv as eitl zens of the country. The plan has Deen in operation in a Marhnriiet scnooi in India since the great fam ine" of 1836 and has shown remark able results, according to Bishop otuntz. Army Plan Is Copied. The chain of hospitals wnnlrl Via built on the style of the American army cantonment hospital at small expense, but admirably fitted to the cumate or Mexico. They would at tempt! to provide protection against the sickness and disease of the coun try and educate the people from their present squalor that has made disease a scourge among the lower classes. The proposed move meets the ap proval of Bishop Stuntz who rooks upon education as the one thing which will overcome conditions that have made possible the misrule and revo lution that has marked the past his tory of the country. "We can do more through churches, educational approaches and social and philanthropic enterprises toward righting conditions there than through armed Intervention," declared Bishop Stuntz. "In my opinion it is the only way to ever bring about harmonious WHY TRAVEL? Before deciding on a business trip, see if the long-distance telephone cannot save, you the journey. .. A long-distance call is a round trip. You start and return with your errand done, all in a few moments and without the inconvenience, expense and loss of time incident to travel.

I regard the Pershing punitive expedi tion as a colossal blunder and I have estimated that the money wasted on thaf emeditlon alone would have built and equipped 25 modern high school buildings. Only Hatred Held Aroused. 'The expedition aroused only hatred and ill feeling and failed in its ob ject. The schools would have been a means of accomplishing a permanent good for the people there." The scheme of Bishop Thirkleld Is considered an indication that things are really becoming stabilized in Mex ico. The fact that outside interests are ready to back such an undertak ing is also considered as the begin ning of active work upon holdings that have been practically unde veloped during the period of years ince the overthrow of the tlaz gov ernment. Bishop Thirkleld has been In the country more than a year. Prior to hat time he was executive head of Howard college, Washington, D. C, an institution devoted to the educa tion of negroes. In that- capacity, he em on at rated his ability to gain the financial support of moneyed men, ac cording to Bishop Stuntz, and Is pro ft blv well aware of the possibilities f the undertaking which he now has in mind. the Chehalis high school, winning out of a field of four candidates.
