(By Mail).—Two Belgian students have already em- barked for America to enter the Uni- versity of California, to take advant- age of the exchange of students plan contained in the new civic charter of the Hoover University Foundation. 19 other students will leave Antwerp September. 1 to enter other American universities. . Other schools drawing students from Belgian universities are as fol- lows: Yale, Harvard, Princeton, Stanford, Massachusetts Tech, Col- umbia, Cornell, Chicago, Pennsyl- vania and Johns Hopkins. The schools they will go from are 6 from Brus- sels, 8 from Louvain, 4 from Liege, 2 from Ghent and one from Mons. Seventeen American youths will enter Belgian universities in accord- ‘ance with the terms of the exchange plan. Their names have not yet been made public. ™ The Hoover Foundation is the out-| come of what started out as the Com- mittee for the Relief of Belgium at the outbreak of the war in Europe. It was established as a private enter- prisy by Herbert Hoover, whom Bel- gians still call blessed. When the committee’s task of relieving suffer- ing throughout the devastated dist- ricts was completed, a sufficient bal- ance was left in the treasurer not only to reimburse the Belgian govern- ment for the five hundred million francs it had contributed, but also there was a sum of between 150 and 160 millions of francs which the com- mittee was-free to do with as it saw| t. i . in its solicitude for Belgium’s youth, the money was set aside for high education. After consultation with officials of the four Belgian uni- versities and the. Mons School of Mines, it was decided to set ‘aside 90 million francs for devolopment of those’ schools and 70 millions to be used as a foundation to make money advances to worthy Belgian students supplying them with the wherxwiflll:l plan for .exchange of students with the larger universities of the United States'was also included in the foun- - dation. 2 The plan was presented to the Bel- gian government and the gifts ac- .cepted with gratitude by .Premier Delacroix. A bill-was later framed for *“civil personification of incorpor- ation of the foundation to empower it to operate under Belgian statutes.

Meat forms uric acid which clogs the kidney pores 80 they sluggishly filter or strain only part of the waste and poisons from the blood, then you get sick. Nearly all rheumatism, headaches; liver trou- ble, nervousness, constipation, dizzi- ness, sleeplessness, bladder disorders come from sluggish kidneys. The moment you feel a dull ‘ache in the kidneys or your back hurts, or if the urine is cloudy, offensive, full of sediment, irtegular of passage or attended by a sensation of scalding, get about four ounces of Jad Salts from any reliable pharmacy and take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with- lithia. and has been used for generations to flush clogged kidneys and - stimulate them to activity, also to neutralize the acids in urine so it no longer causes irritation, thus end- ing bladder disorders. Jad Salts is inexpensive and can not injure; makes a delightful effer- vescent lithia-water drink which all regular meat eaters should take now and then to-keep the kidneys clean an? the blood pure, thereby avoiding serious kidney complications. .|be cancelled and retired, AMERICAN TRAINING MAKES GREEK TEAM Modern A!bl:;:“ethodo Im- prove Hellenes’ Olympic " Timber in Fine Manner (By Antonios Papayannakis, Unit- ed Press Special Correspondent.) Athens, July 12 (by. Mail).—Re- markable testimony of the value of the American style of athletic train- ing, is found in the comparison of the records of Greece’s Olympic tal- ent first at the Pan-Hellenic games of May 6, when almost no systematic training had been followed, and the trials' of July 4, after two months under American coaches. -In the affair of last week, the records of which have just been made public, every mark set in the Pan- Hellenic games was broken with the single exception of the 800-metre run, and that record was equalled. Beyond all question the marked im- provement in the showing the athletes who will represent Greece at Ant- werp made, is due jointly to P. E. Marriott, the national director of ath- letics at the American Y. M. C. A. here, and J. V. Lamberton, assistant national director. - Marriott was named head coach shortly after the May 6 games, while Lamberton came here from Italy to assist. Both are Americans. ~ Prac- tically all of the Olympic contenders were men unknown beyond their own villages when the Pan-Hellenic games were staged. Under the tutelage of ‘Marriott and Lamberton, however, raw material has in many cases won permanent places on the teams over well-known and experienced athletes. The result of the recent trials has had a tendency to instill renewed hope and courage into the hearts of Greeks sportsmen, who at first had almost given up in despair, believ- ing Greece’s showing in the Olympic games—so dear to the hearts of Greeks because it was here that the world-contests originated—would not warrant the expense of sending a téam. Now, however, thousands of lovers of outdoor sports throng the stadium whenever there-is an exhibi- tion or a tryout. It is said hundreds of spectators will accompany the team to Belgium. Amorig some of the men who quali- fied for the Olympic team, are Kara- batis, the short distance runner; Ponireas, the little hop, step and jump man; Retelas, a new long distance man, and Nickolaides, the strongest all-round athlete Greece has had in many years, who will compete in the decathlon. Karabatis promises to be one of the coming young athletes in Europe. Under Coach Marriott, he has de- veloped from an unweidly and over- grown youngster into a lithe and fast man ih the space of two months. To- day he is one of the fastest quarter- milers Greece has ever produced. On the Stadium track, slow and with its sharp turns, he can make 52 seconds. On-a standard track, fast with wide turns, the coaches are confident he can make the 400 meters in 49 sec- onds or better. He covers the 200 meters in 21 4-5 seconds. Ponireas_has increased his own dis- tance in the hop, step and jump, over five feet in as many weeks. In the Olympic tryouts, he made 13:64 meters. In practice, he has made AMENDMENT OF ARTICLES OF IN- CORPORATION OF BEMIDJI PIONEER PUBLISNING COMPANY. State of Minnesota; County of Beltrami, ss. G. Carson and E.

Greece bases much hope to carry off the Decathlon honors at Antwerp. He has had the advantage of American training before, while at Roberts col- lege at Constantinople, and that com- bined with the intensive coaching he has received during the past few weeks, has rounded him into form, which compares favorably with the best one finds in the United States. If he continues to keep his form, and to better it, as he undoubtedly will, | he should be a strong contender for the decathlon championship. He can make 42 feet in the shot; 130 fget in the discus, 5 feet 10 -in the high jump; 21 feet in the running broad jump, 12 feet in the pole vault; and shows corresponding excellence in the other events. s There are a number of other men who will make a remarkable show- ing at Antwerp, including the wrestler, D. Vergos; the weight lifter, S. Menexis; the marathon runner, Trivoulidas, the pentathlon and high jump man, Andromidas, and others. The last two men are in the United States, but will meet the team at Antwerp. PONZI ALLEGED TO HAVE SERVED TIME AS FORGER Boston, Aug. 11.—Charles P.

Professor Ralf E. Danforth, a pro-| fessor of Zoology and Anatomy at Rutgers College, New Jersey, is in the island for 8 two months’ study of its agricultural possibilities and the living conditions, from the social point of view. His investigations are with the object of proving that the tropics are the ideal home for north- ern races, and that they would live in the torrid zone under better con-I ditions than in the temperate. Thel on}y drawback which he sees is mal- aria, which can be got over if tackl- _eti correctly. He is also a prohibition- ist.
