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

"The people mf this country don't
know the rudiments of play," Colonel
Leader declared.
Education Is In Play,

world is a slate of mUundcrf sanding irri

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.

"The future of the summer school in
Mexico ia certainly a challenging one,"
lean it. fcv MacKlwee of the George
town university said to the I'luted Prest.
"With the cool Situate, (be many
place b nuil objects of historical, artis
tic and ninantic interest, the learning of
the Spanish language, and all the scien
tific lore offered by the erudite faculty
of the university, is offered a combina
tion of advantage for summer study and
rcrcutiou that cannot be equalled any
where.
This Hummer's courwe has been very
successful and I venture the opinion that
there has been started a form of sum
mer school training in Mexico that will
become the greutest education institu
tions barring none."

"One of the most helpful achievements
since the Detroit convention, both in its
immediate stabilizing effect and in its
promise for the future, has been the se
curing, during the past vear, ill good mid

accrued liability fund.' the report states.
"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. "whether we have in mind the
promotion of the physical well-being of
men. or of the development of a new
and hiuhly efficient educational force, or
the relating of men and boys to C hrist

binding together of the nations and ruces
of mankind.
'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.

county where increndiaririn started a fire
during the great coal strike nf 1S84.
The blaze, which has heen eating its
way through the mi mined stocks of
Ohio fuel, is raging again at the mouth
of an abandoned shaft near Shawnee.
The furnace hurls its tongue of flame
a hundred feet into the air and can be
seen for miles.
At otJier places in the hills the fire ban
broken through the surface stratum and
fdiuotrt as high as the surrounding tree

fire to exhaust its acreage.
