known to me in detail Iowa, Oregon and California were his only residences, except for his work the geological survey of Arkansas.
 Since his graduation from Stanford University in mining and engin- eering his professional life always has had a world scope. It began during the period of some twelve years prior to the war when he enjoyed an international practice as an engineer. No calendar year ever went by, with the exception of 1898 and 1917, in which he not for some portion of the year a resident of the Unit ed States.
 On these two occasions of considerable absence he was engaged in engineering con structive work in Australia. His engineer ing practicve has taken him into every country in the world It is credit to the universities of the United States that her engineers are in such demand in such work
 It is within my knowledge that the total period that Hoover could have been actually in England would not exceed an aggregate of more than three or four years out of the total forty-sy of his life, although at times he left his family there when he was obliged to journey to Russia and other parts of Europe on professional business. His son came home in time for the Fall term of school in California, as soon as he was old enough for public school.
 MT. Hoover has been actively connected with Stanford University, acting as adviser to the President In the engineering depart ment or as a trustee of the university. For over twelve years he has maintained for his family home either in San Francisco or at the university. During this entire time his life has emphasized those sterling American qualities that are the pride of us all
 and colleague, I am happy to say that I know no finer character no better Amer lean, no more genuine lover of the United States than Herbert Hoover

PRESENT STATUS OF PEACE TREATY

The action of the Senate in unanimously recon sidering the by which the peace treaty was rejected and by which the so-called Lodge amend ments adopted does not mean that the Senate has agreed upon what 1t will do with the peace treaty and the League of Nations It simply means that the Senate has unanimously agreed to take the treaty up again for consideration, and that was a necessary parliamentary proceeding in bringing 1t to life again As it stood the treaty dead as far as the Senate concerned. The Senate had adopted the Foreign Relations Committee amend ments~and then it had refused to ratify the treaty with them in it.
 The action of the Senate in reconsidering the votes by which the treaty rejected and the Lodge amendments adopted, with reference of the treaty back the Foreign Relations Commttee, that when the treaty comes back to the Sen it will have exactly the parliamentary stand ing that 1t had last November before the voting on the amendments and the treaty began It will again be subject to amendment and that will offer those who may have compromise propositions to submit
 We may now expect the peace treaty and the Leagne of Nations to figure largely in the news columns again until the matter is finally disposed of The conviction seems to be general that com promise that win be acceptable to the necessary ma jory of Senators and the President will be agreed upon,

An Alarming Prospect
Cincinnati Enquirer)

Cincinnati Enquirer)
 That the 1863 instructors in the colleges of Ohio should be receiving average annual salary of $1,445, or $28 week, is fact that will over whem the ordinary person who has an interest in education These deporable statistics based up- on reports made to the State Superintendent of Pub lie Instruction by forty colleges.
 It is sad to contemplate the sorry condition of this class of trained minds, whose individual lective work means so much for the future of this country. Everywhere there appeals arising on their behalf because for some reason, possibly the same one that makes them college instructors they appear to lack drive and initiative in matters that concern themselves personally.
 s45 Comparisons odiOus but still cannot es- cape comparing these niggardy salaries with the s,- perior incomes of illiterate alien laborers who re- joce and roll in that double the stipends of the learned educators. It is small wonder that college students march today in sympathetic sion with their tutors in demand that living wages to give them that name-be paid them

 If you would have your blankets and comforts as spOtless and i'm maculate as your other bed linen, send them to us. We employ a special method of laundering that makes them light and fresh, that gives them a wonderful fluffiness, that frees them from every impurity
