LEADER. 1 Conference on Limitation of Arma ments Is Having Wholesome Effect, Says II. W. Stone. A spirit of prayer is spreading over the country- The conference on limi tation of armaments is having a no ticeable effect In churches, schools, civic organizations ' and business clubs. The people are realizing that preparation Is under way to, meet new world conditions. This was the observation of H. W. Stone, general secretary of the Port land Young Men Christian associa tion, who is boms after attending na tional conferences on T. M. C. A. work In New York city and Atlantic City. N. J. "Mr. Hughes' opening statement gave a note of confidence and optim ism to business in America," said Mr. Stone, who sat with some of the country's leading business men at a meeting of the board of governors of the United Y. M. C. A. Schools of America. A year of remarkable growth In attendance was reviewed at thie meeting. It was reported that 140.000 young men now are attending Y. M. C. A. schools In America, and that the "Y" now has the largest vocational educational institution under private auspices In the world. ' The schools have enjoyed a period of prosperity since the educational work was reorganized three years ago. When the war ended, three years ago, Y. M. C. A. school work was not going well. At the request of the metropolitan secretaries the board of governors induced Mr. Stone to re vise Its educational work in the United States and Canada. He ef fected this reorganization, and then was asked to become executive leader of the educational work, with head quarters In New York city. Mr. Stone declined to accept, saying he pre ferred to make his home in Portland, where he hoped to develop one of the strongest vocational colleges In Amer ica. He accepted the- position of chairman of the board of governors, a non-salaried poet, and has eince di rected the policies and work of the educational department.

Plows enable to Make Headway In Snow Accumulations. HOOD RIVER, Or, Nov. 26. (Spe cial.) After a week's lethargy, due to the paralyzing effects of the un precedented NovemDer snow storm. Hood River valley returned today to the semblance of normal business ac tivity. With roads broken ranchers reached the city with milk and cream, and work was resumed at the Hood River creamery, averting a butter famine. Householders were again provided with their morning Orego nian. Passenger service to Portland was resumed by the O.-W. R. & N. com pany. Two stub trains will be operated daily to Tne juanes ano Celilo, where passengers will be transferred to regular trains No.' 19 and 17 which will be detoured into Portland over the Spokane, Portland Sc. Seattle line by Fallbrldge. Be cause of . the heavy drifts of ice in a cut just east of Shell Rock moun tain, rotary snowplows were unable to get at the accumulation of snow on the O.-W. R. & N. tracks west of here yesterday. Crews working blasting the ice six feet thick at points made less than 100 feet. When the deep cut Is once cleared out, progress is expeoted to be rapid and officials express the hope that the line will be open by Monday. J. P.

Grants Pass Has Preacher Who Can't Talk. Rft. C. M. Cllne, Onee Circuit Rider of Iowa. Affected From Exposure lu Terrific Bllxsard. BY EVERETT EARLE STANARD. BROWNSVILLE. Or., Nov. 26. (Spe cial.) Rev. C. M. Cllne, pastor of the Baptist church at Grants Pass, baa the distinction of being the only Oregon preacher.who can't talk. What we mean to say is that . a strange husklness seizes him at times and he can scarcely be heard. This Is due to his circuit-riding days in Iowa. He was once caught out in a terrific blizzard and the exposure affected his throat Naturally, Rev. Mr. CUne's voice Js one of the strongest, and it is his boast that he used to be called to the platform in middle-west conven tions to make announcements; but nowadays, often in the midst of a ser mon, his voice dies down to the ver iest whisper. In the days of the world war this voiceless preacher laid aside his min isterial role and entered the ship yards at Tacoma. After wearing out many a man with the cross-cut saw, he was promoted to the position of head hook-tender . Rev. Mr. Cie began preaching when he was 17 years old. While attending the' University of Des Moines he -carried the gospel to out lying points, and this was the begin ning of traveling which has taken him practically all parts of the United States. He has preached in such widely separated cities as Hennesy, Okla.; Bend, Or.; Emerson, la.; Sno homish, Wash.; Buffalo, N. Y., and Custer. S. D." In the extreme south Rev. Mr. Cline strove to convert such- tribes as the Kiowa Indians and the Tonkawas, once cannibals. He knows the negro race l'ke a book. For a period of years he was stationed In the noto rious Black Hills, South Dakota. Hither came bad men and criminals from all of the states, seeking to hide. The Oregon preacher can tell many a graphic tale of the little town of Custer, where sleep Calamity Ann and Wild Bill. When he was sent to central Ore gon to become district missionary he made his headquarters at Bend. His field, he says, was limited only by the providence of .God. He went Into Bend in an old-fashlonfd horse-drawn stage, and well remembers the discon solate monologue of an old negro mammy that kept walling something about "this Gawd-forsaken country." About the first thing that the preacher saw In that city was a des perate battle between a burly black smith and four or five Greeks. The blacksmith finally got his back to the wall and knocked out his opponents as fast as they came after him. Game Birds Suffer. WHITE SALMON, Wash.. Nov. 26. (Special'.)
