Mr.. Smith represented the world

making two hundred and sixty Id.
dresses in the eight months trip.
In one of his reports Mr.. Smith
said that the poorest hovel or street

ter in Canton, China, where two mil,

From the college president to, the

war may yet do to them.
The world is at the dividing Of the

angle of life pretty soon and the test
Of the future will be this: Were they
eventually going to find some method
by which they could live without war,
or were they going to settle down 10
the sordid idea that war was a per.

Commenting on the effect or the
war on business, Mr.! Smith said there
were men who could not come down
to the ordinary decent business, but
whimpered like children because they
could not profiteer every day.
