As a warnine for the future Colonel Leader suid that the youn men mid women of Oregon have the finest bodies of any people in the world, and reminded the students; that they must remember that their bodies are temples and if they are neglected that God has a way of col lecting his dues. "The people mf this country don't know the rudiments of play," Colonel Leader declared. Education Is In Play, TJie greater education is sained on tlio playing field in that it tenches the player initiative, team work, tloggedness. chivalry and many other virtues neces sary to the making of a gentleman, the speaker pointed out. The people of the west are too serious, he said. Aiiother reason for tJie value of free piny as pointed out by Colonel Lender was that play put vitality back into one's body and made honest work enjoyable ED E! weans.

"Internal ion'llv the world is a slate of mUundcrf sanding irri tation, and want of fundamental unity." the report nays in viewing the work of the association during the post-war per iod. "Inter-racially it is passing through ueriod of marked race-consciousness and of crowing friction and strife. Kco- nnmically the situation for many nationt is an impossible one and the whole world keenly feels the effects. ' Industrially there are days of much hardship, strife and bitterness. F.thically there has been relaxing of moral sanctions. In the realm of religimi men throughout the world are questioning sources, of author ity, re-examining all foundations, and demandiufr reality. I'hat the associations of the L nited States and Canada have felt these effects is not surprising, the report goes on to say. but adds that they have largely weathered the storm and many are mov ing on with greater strides and with more matked achievements thiiu during the fruitful period before the war.

"This ensures the successful launching of the retirement, plan which has receiv ed the constructive attention of three preceding international conventions.' In regard to the demobilization of the National War Work council the report states that a two-volume history of the war work of the American associations is now in press. It constitutes a worthy record of this vast, unparalleled ministry. The number in educational classes mir ing the three years has increased from Nti.000 to 1 10.00O. This expansion has been largely due to the generous appro priation from the war fund toward ser vice rendered ex-service men. "Without exaggeration we may speak of the foreign work as having become a world power, tlie committee says m tins renort.

'Berlin,' 0lv 21, O'nited Press), Americans and other foreigners will be unwelcome in (.ermany this winter. Already, a keen spirit of resentment, especiallly among the. working classes, is setting in against what are called "Valnta-strone foreigners. And. nart of this resentment it ninv be said in ail fairness is attributable to the conduct of certain traveling foreigners, who have been swarming over Germany this summer. They have made it difficult for Ameri cans and others whose business requires them to remain in Germany. They have flaunted in the faces of waiters and shopgirls their dollars and their cheap marks; they have boasted of how cheaply i they can buy foods and goods in Ger many; and have said ttiey would be glad to get rid f this junk" meaning the uiaiKs they bought by the bale. Foreigners Extravagant Tiio German has seen this; he has read, too. daily of how many marks can be had for a dollar, ami of how the for eigners were "buying out" the country, taking along not only hixtiries but neces sities, lie has heard of the foreigner feasting with cavier, lobster and cham pagne at rates comparatively low wk.cn reckoned in American or British cur rency. Further, he has observed that many of the foreigners were leading a loose lite wine, women and hoiik. - Then he .has turned tko. page, and read how many hundred marks his meat and his butter and his bread and potatoes are costing ana win cost, tie nas reck oned that up in terms of a weekly wage running between 2,000 and 4,000 marks at present and has come to the couclu- tliat the economic situation, is ait wrong. , Sullenly Dislikes Them And, along with it, he bus gathered a sullen disli'to for the foreigner. The result, is a distinct spirit of hos tility. A few cases have come to light in the lust coujile of weeks where per sons speaking Kuglish on the streets were hissed. 1 he foreigner wonders nt such treat ment and resents it. (In the other hand. though, the German resents the boorish impoliteness and loud mouthed bracea- docia. which too many travelers assume. MEXICO CITY AS 5 T t Jloxico City.
