The action of the German Imperial
Olympic committee in changing it's
title to the German Imperial Commit
tee for Bodily Exercise" has aroused
much speculation among athlete
authorities throughout the world.
Many close followers of Olympic
sports have expressed the opinion that
the move on the part of the German
committee is an intimation that Ger
many will not compete in these inter-
national sports after the war. Others
hold that the change of name merely
marks the taking over of other duties
and plans considered more necessary
and pressing at this time in. Germany
than consideration of future Olympic
meets.
In this connection it can be said
that the international Olympic COM
mittee has not abandoned the idea of
these games and that with the restora-
ton of peace in Europe there will be
a determined effort made to hold an
international meet within a year fol-
lowing the official close of the con-
fiict. 1t has been intimated that the
gathering may be more than a series
of athletic competitions; taking the
form of an international celebration of
the restoration of peace, with impos-
ing ceremonies and pageants to which
the nations of the world will be invited
to send representative delegations.

is not confined to petty monetary
scrimping on food, clothing, or recrea-
ton. One may be thrifty in the use
of time, labor, mental powers, mate

handling of money. Thrift is not linn
tied to those who merely lay aside
money for a rainy day. 1t is prac-
ticed in other ways by wise present
investments which increase efficiency
so that the rainy day never comes.
For some, the use Of surplus funds
may be the establishment of a saw

bonds, or real estate. Money used
for %judicious home-buying is money
actually saved. When a family unites

.CITY TO FORECLOSE
ON PAVING LIENS
jackson street Property Owners Who
Have Not Yet Paid Their Assess
ments Are Involved.

The longfought Jackson street
paving fight is soon to go a few more
rounds after a long period of rest.
The city Is preparing to foreclose the
liens against the property of those
owners who have not yet paid their
assessments. Last evening City Attor-
ney Fee was empowered to secure le-
gal assistance if he deems it neces-
sary.
After the paving of the street, sew
en- or eight property owners escaped
payment through a supreme court de-
cision which nullified the councils
proceedings on the ground of mi
nor technical error in the district map
Later the city adopted an amendment
TO the charter permitting reaSsess
ments in case of such errors and this
amendment is now held to be retro
active. The city attorney will bring
proceedings in the recorders court to
foreclose the liens and stiff opposition
is antiipated.
