COMMITTEES ARE

FOOTSTEPS or v. S. AND
ABANDON TEMPORARY
ORGANIZATIONS.

Chicago, H.. March 26.---One OF the
most encouraging bits OF evidence thar
the quadrennial Olympic games are to
increase I'm Importance as an interna-
tional athletic feature II the fact that
a number of foreign countries have
followed the example set by the Unit
ed States and converted their temper
airy Olympic associations into perma-
nent organizations. England was the
first country To emulate the Americans
and an authoritative statement from
the British Olympic committee is that
its association is TO be permanent
body. charged with the duty OF secur-
English team 20 compete whenever
these meets are held and 10 promote
the cause of amateur athletics between
The various Olympiads.
The same thing has been done in
France. and the chances are that the
Swedish olympic association. which
was organized for the purpose of pro-
noting this years games and is or
ganizing a team to properly represent
Sweden, will continue its association.
The Swedes have developed a tremen-
dous interest in track and field ath-
letics, and propose 10 keep Sweden in
the front hereafter. From Australia
and South Africa come reports that
similar movements are on foot there.
France. which was virtually respon
sible for the revival of the ancient
olympic games AT Athens in 1896, has
maintained sort of national Olympic
association ever since that date.
The permanent organization of SO
many Olympic associations means that
the next time the Olympic games are
held in this country there will be n
good foreign representation. In 1904,
when the Olympic games were held
In st. Louis. the representation of for
eign teams amounted 10 practically
nothing This was due, I'm a measure,
to the fact that the revived olympic
games had hardly been firmly estab-
lished. AS a matter of fact. even the
eastern college athletes of this country
paid little attention to the games and
no effort was made to get together n
real American team. The information
al rivalry produced by the London
games in 1908 was responsible for the
permanent interest which has .ex-
pressed itself in permanent Olympic
associations.

village of Laurium today began taking
a census of the postotiice patrons UNI
der the direction of Postmaster Naire.
The work will be continued until ev-
cry resident OF the village who has
ceive mail enumerated and an ac-
curate record made of his street ad-
dress. 1t. is expected the census will
be complete after tomorrow evening.
This work will undoubtedly go a long
way towards familiarlzing the carriers
with their new duties.
one feature in connection with the
establishment OF free delivery for
Iaurium which has not been comment
ed upon, is the fact that residents of
Willow avenue will hereafter receive
their mail through the Laurium instead
of the Calumet postOtlice II will be
remembered that when free delivery
was established at the Calumet post
office. the resident of Willow avenue
petitioned the department to be at
tachedl to the district served by the
Calumet Office the request was acceded
to. The street is rightly part of the
village of Laurium however and it
has been decided to serve the residents
through the Laurium postofllce here
after.
The new drop boxes are expected
daily and will be installed saturday
or Sunday so that they will be avail
able for use early Monday morning.
Postal Inspector Otto of Marquette
will direct their installation.
