FALL ACTIVITIES

In October the settlement houses
will begin their indoor activities.
Summertime, out door sports, and
camp life have brought to the
youth of the communities renewed
vitality and the keen enjoyment
that the clean air out of doors al
ways invites. This should and will
make the more serious and educa-
tional efforts now to begin more
welcome and easier to absorb.
In st. Paul Halle @. Brown House,
together with the several other
welfare centers, will again find a
welcome, not alone from the youth,
but from many adults as well,
who look forward eagerly to the
opening of the Sunday Forum,
glee club, rehearsals, dramatic and
dancing lessons; instructions in
cooking, dressmaking, and a host
of classes in useful accomplish
ment.
AS the years go by there is, and
rightly, growing appreciation of
the value of this communal center
as it reaches farther into the So
cial life of the city and brings
benefits that increase with the
passing of time.
The social security that the
president of the United States en-
visions finds ready foundation in
these centers of helpfulness and

CUM Oil company and the Stand
ard Oil company of New Jersey,
were the organizations he sought.
George S. Walden, chairman of
the board, and H. Dundas, vice
president of the Standard Vacuum
company, called at the State de-
partment, and admitted ownership
of the oil lease in Ethiopia, thus
clearing up the mystery in which
the interests behind the big deal
were enthroned.
'The company officials were in
formed that it was highly desirable
that the necessary steps be taken
at the earliest possible moment to
terminate the present concession"
a statement by Secretary Hull re-
layed here by wire, said.
Other information was to the eff
feet that the head of the State de-
partment of the United States had
talked sharply with the officials,
showing them the consequences of
such a move which would no doubt
have involved their country in war.
Duce to March, September Is
In the meantime Mussolini in
Italy gave out information to his
people that his present plans are
to march on Ethiopia during the
week between September Is and
20. It is planned to start the Ital-
ian regiments to marching toward
Adowa, scene of Italy's discom-
future in 1896. Simultaneous move
ments of motorized detachments
of cavalry will see other Italian
divisions driving toward Gondar,
not far from Lake Tana.
Flashing the golden sword given
to Emperor Halle Selassie by the
king of England when he was
crowned in 1880, the African rul-
er's personal bodyguard, cream of
Ethiopia's fighting forces, led by
General Habuta Mikael, went
tramping off toward probable
war front with the blessings of
their king ringing in their ears.
General Habuta Mikael, who
guarded the emperor's life for
many years, led 700 modernly
equipped fighters, who were the
vanguard of 10000 crack troops to
the southern front. It was said
that $4,000 soldiers have already
been sent to the southern area and
that $4,000 more are being held in
reserve.
Charm for Victory
"This sword" the emperor
stated, in an address to his men,
coming from a great, wise and
