If Our Debtors Paid

The business of readjusting the affairs of the
world is much complex than 1t seems. No doubt
complete plans have been devised around the stoves
of thousand roads stares and in the private
associations To these solvers of
the hesitation of government and other govern
ments and world financiers to turn simple trick
crirninaly stupid
Some of them in the first place believe would
be right If had what is coming to u.s. that Is
if associates In the late would begin to pay
what they us; at least, pay the interest.
Now, suppose that by miracle debtors
should suddenly be able to discharge that in
debtedness and should dump upon billions Of
dollars in gold. Inasmuch this country already
as much money it needs, seven billions would
be embarrassment rather than help. We would
be faced at once with a serious readjustment
problem than ever.
But We will suppose that debtorsi lacking
the gold should suddenly able to pay in goods
and then should dump upon seven billions of
dollars worth of commodities of all sorts, most OF
them in competition with American production. 1t
would smother US; it would put the fire out Of almost
every furnace in the land We would have such
era of prices and low wages and unemployment
as had never dreamed of.

Taking Feminism to the Orient

the women are illiterate. In Japan
conditions are brighter, but unlike
the men who go from the middle
school to college and often from col
lege to university, the Japanese
girls education often stops with the
middle school or even earlier. This
is not surprising when it is recalled
that the Japanese government sup
ports 33 Institutions of learning of
university grade for men students
and but one institution of college
grade for all the girls of Japan.
Until recent years the small
schools maintained by church mis-
sion boards were the only educational
provisions which was made for the
girls of the Orient. They began
about so years ago, at about the
time Vassar College was started,
and at that time the boards were
weak and insignificant organiza-
tions themselves. While the results
of the schools established by the
mission boards have been encourage
ing in the extreme, yet the individual
boards were never able financially
to establish colleges and high grade
medical schools. They had not the
money to equip nor to run them.
The mission boards realized the
folly of trying to run poor sectarian
schools, when by uniting their eff
forts they might establish strong
union Christian colleges and give
the girls of the orient the same
educational advantages the American
girls enjoy. Accordingly the lead
ing church boards of England, Am
erica, and Canada united, in 1913.
and established the first of these
high grade Union Christian colleges
at Madras. India
The success which which attend

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES

The Yakima trip proved to be dis
astrous one for the Kennewick high
school basketball players. The girls
team was defeated by score of 40 to
9, while the boys were beaten sc to
16.
The large score was due to the slip
perry floor and the large gymnasium.
The Yakima team showed much i'm
provement over their game here a
week ago and were out for revenge.
1t was rather slow game due some
what to the referee.
The same night the second team
went to Whitstran and came home VIC
torious with score of IL to 10.
Friday night the eighth grade boys
and girls basketball teams played the
Richland eighth grade teams. The
Kennewick girls were defeated but the
Kennewick boys were victorious. The
Richland players were much heavier
than our teams and wore the strength
of the Kennewick pupils down.
The high school pupils assembled in

were entertained by members of the

was given:
