~HE Fourth international Congress
or School Hygiene which con-
renes IN Buffalo from the 26th
to the 3oth OF August. will bring
together a.ooo OF the worlds greatest
educators and health experts who Will
unite In one grand crusade to pro-
mote sound bodies for the school
children of the world.
The Congress and It's aims are OF
such magnitude, and the work 1t Will
fnaugurate has so many manifestations,
that it is almost impossible to give
an adequate impression Of its immense
Importance and size within the prlef
confines of a newspaper article.
Briefly the Congress Will bring TO-
eether the leading men and women
OF the world who are interested in
the health OF children: II will organ
ixe a program of papers and discus
sions covering the field of school by
giene: il will assemble scientific and
commercial exhibits OF practical and
educational value to school people,
and 1t will publish. for scattering
broadcast. the many important re-
suits OF It's deliberations.
In the old days tife child which
seemed unable to master its lessons
was given a perch on the ounces
stool, and the birch rod was often
resorted to as the most successful
stimulus for tagging brain. In these
days OF more scientific educational
method the backward child Is given
a medical examination and a set oi
well filled teeth or pair Of properly
fitted eye glasses are often found Il
work far more good than an applica

A DIPLOMATIC KNOT.
II Wasn't Tied In Tan9le Just For
the Fun of the Thing.

Ever since diplomacy was first In
vented its most eminent practitioners
have expended their best efforts in
mystifying If not in actually deceiving
their rivals. Uber Land und Nicer cites
an amusing anecdote of diplomatic life
in the eighteenth century.
In 1741 Count Bestushew was sent
by the emperor of Russia to Stockholm
to put the question Of war or peace to
the Swedish government. Upon arriv-
ing the count made known his mission
and then waited patiently for an an
swer.
Finally when he had almost given up
hope of getting a reply he received a
long communication from the Swedish
minister of war. Eagerly Count Bestu-
shew opened the letter, for he knew
that 1t contained the long expected an
swer. But to his despair he found it
so encountered with official phrases
nothing of its meaning. For two hours
he struggled in vain to comprehend the
confused document. Then he fastened
to the minister of war.
MY dear Count Bestushew," said
the minister when the count had ex-
planned his difficulty, II have no au-
thority to communicate TO you orally
the contents of this document. could
not think of it,
But 1 have puzzled over this for
two hours, and still l can make moth
ing of it."
pray, do not blame yourself, count"
said the minister. "You could hardly
expect to unravel In two hours doc
ument that took me two days to knit
and knot together"

YOUR OWN VOICE.
How You May Hear 1t as II Sounds to
Other Persons Ears.

Laloy, who appears TO have scien-
tifically Investigated the matter, as
sures us that not only does one not see
himself as others see him, but that he
does not hear himself as others hear
him. Some interesting experiments
were made by the French savant In
this connection.
| In order to ascertain whether man
really knew the sound of his own
voice, Laloy has been at some pains TO
determine the facts. His experiments
show that II person record on n
phonograph disk few sentences pro
nounced by himself, together with 9th
ers recorded by friends. and causes the
machine to reproduce these, II most
frequently happens that the man more
easily recognizes the voices OF his
friends than he does his own.
1t appears that the differences lies
in the quality Of the tone. One hears
his own voice not only through the
air, as do his auditors, but across the
solid parts between the organs OF
speech and those of hearing. The
sound thus produced has n different
timbre from that conducted to the ear
by the air above.
If one entertain any doubt as to this
let him try the following experiments:
Take the end of wooden rod between
the teeth and pronounce the vowel
continuously. Let the other end be
taken alternately between the teeth
and released by another person who ut
the same time stops his ears. The lat
ter will find that every time he seizes
the rod In his teeth the sound will be
stronger than when 1t reaches the ear
the air above and that it has
different quality. The passage of
sound through a solid body augments
Its intensity and modifes its quality

Only those who have tried 1t and
failed know the disappointmentso of the
song writer striving to induce pub
Usher to look at his work. For those
who would try here is tip from one
who has made good: "If your song Is
to make hit the air must be hard to
remember. though catchy and pleasing.
II 1t can be whistled by any one who
hears 1t once or twice 1t will not sell,

PORTLAND UNION STOCK YARDS

/ Receipts for the week have been;
Cattle 1926; Calves 1872; Hogs 2125;
Sheep All.
Cattle market steady to stronger at
the close of the weeks business.
Prime grass steers offering on Thurs
day and Friday sold at SS25 to $3.50
in small quantity. The demand for
this class stuff is fine, but for medi-
UNI and half fat varieties prices are
no higher thln they have been for
the past two weeks. The steer top
on bulk sales-S.00 to S.25-Light Of
ferings of COWS and heifers has
strengthened the market somewhat,
in choice grades. Cows
700 to 7.25-heifers 1925 to $50, bulls
600 to 6.25, and calves 900 are top
quotations on the various classes.
Buying demand in the hog pens in
creased materially the latter part of
the week; tops sold in bulk at 900 to
9.15, with few loads at $40 and 9.25
The market is steady to strong on
a basis of 9.l5. Good demand for
smooth and rough heavy hogs. -
.ceipts have been fairly liberal consid-
ering the season of the yaer and liqui
dation will doubtless decrease dur
in the next two months.
Sheep house prices have suffered
to some extent during the last six
days, due to the slow demand on the
part of the killers. Good fat mutton
is not finding a broad outlet, while
lamb values have decreased 25 to
