i European mission, Dr. Love made the following statement outlining the pur. pose of the commission:
 When the cali came to help save, promote and secure democracy in Flu. rope there came a louder call to help save promote and secure evangelical Christianity in Europe. That which alone will now preserve and perfect the democracy for which brave men have died on the battlefield of Europe is the Christianity of the New Tasta- ment. Southern Baptists can not long CT profess New Testament Christian Ity and decline challenge like that which is now presented to them to bear witness to their faith among the peoples of Europe Our people never before faced such challenge and such q sponsibility..
 @0f course We can not go to the men and women of Europe who have been stripped of earthly fortune and reduced to direst necessity with d message of Christian love and brotherhood if we decline in our abundance to carry some substantial pledge of our love and compassion Mothers will not be able to stay the crying of their little ones to hear us preach if we decline to practice the gospel of compassion and feed these little ones and build fires at which they can during the com ing winter warm their frosted toes Southern Baptists are under the most solemn obligation to help relieve the want and suffering of Europe. But if there were no reconstruction work in Europe, Southern Baptists have mo tives numerous enough and strong enough to compel them to make a com plete success of the Baptist 75 Mil lion Campaign. I would therefore. as my parting word to my brothers and sisters of the South. implore them to give themselves to this campaign and carry it to triumphant conclusion during Victory Week, November 30 December !"

ENGLISH IS COMMON TONGUE.
Chinese Girls Learn It to Talk to One
 Another.

Chinese women students in the Tung Flu College. Picking, China, are obliged to learn English in order to talk with one another because of the different dialects used by the student body.
 Girls from the extreme western provinces of China, who attend the school, must remain in Picking during all of the eight years required for their high school and college train ing, because to return each summer would require six weeks for the trip one way and would cost more than trip to America and return.
 Girls from each of the western provinces speak a different language and they cannot understand one an other any more than they can the girls from northern. southern, eastern or central provinces. Hence, they have adopted English as a common tongue

Governor Davis had spoken at Pot
latch last night and was brought to
Moscow today on railroad "speeder"
the roads and weather being too bad
to permit him coming from Potlatch

to Potlatch after him in the car but
the roads were found to be impass-

The governor spoke at the Univer-

gathered there. Judge F. S. Diet
rich was the chief speaker and Gov

GOVERNOR D. v. DAVIS MADE
PLEA FOR BETTER AMER|CAN|SM

Governor d. w. Davis was a guest
of honor at the regular weekly lunch
con of the Moscow chamber of com
merce today. The lunch was held half
an hour early in order that the gov
ernor could catch the 1890 train for
Lewiston He was introduced by j.
S. Heckathorn, president of the
chamber of commerce, and spoke
briefly. He spoke of the Armistice
day and what it commentaries, re-
viewing the tragic days of July,
August, September and October, 1918,
when the American soldiers were
thrown into the gap and hurled the
Germans back in their advance upon
Paris. Touching on the strike situa-
tion and the threats to overthrow the
government Governor Davis made
ringing patriotic speech in which he
said in part:
eve have been asleep at the switch.
We have allowed radicals to stand on
our street corners and preach anarchy
and disloyalty. We have been lulled
by false belief of strength and per-
mitted this to go on unchecked We
have permitted these radicals to
mould sentiment and some of our own
good citizens have been influenced by
it and our politicians and lawmakers
have been misled into the belief that
some of the doctrines these radicals
have been preaching were what the |
American people want. We must
awaken and demand that American !

has no right to free speech and if he
does not want to become citizen of
the United States just as soon as the
laws will permit him to become such,
he should be sent back to his own
country. (Applause.) This is no
place for the man who wants to des-
troy the constitution or the govern
ment of the people"
Governor Davis told of a labor
parade in Cleveland where strikers
paraded with red flags, parasols and
neckties and returned soldiers broke
up the parade and there were 125 ar
rests. Two of the men arrested were
Americans, two were naturalized
citizens and the other 121 were for
eigners who had never applied for
citizenship. 'That class of men can
not rule this country" said the gov
ernor 'They must become citizens or
get out"
Governor Davis had to cut his talk
short and rush to the train for Lew

Governor Davis urged that educa

about the constitution, the state, fed
