A preparatory school to the seminary has been founded .at Scranton, Penn., and the preacher an- nounced that it was the purpose of the missionary authorities to have in time a chain of seminaries and preparatory schools, extending from the Atlantic to the Pacific. At the present time there is a great lack of missionaries in the foreign fields for those missionaries who were physical- ly fit have been drafted into the service of the European armies. St. Mary’s seminary is the only Roman Catholic seminary in this country en- gaged in the education of mission- | aries. The support accorded by the parish was gratifying and of much material help to the priests in carrying on their work. Many subscribers to the monthly paper published by the mis- sionaries were enlisted. Two marriages will be solemnized this week at St. Mary's church. On Wednesday Robert E. Stone and Mary A. Coffey will be married at 9 o’clock. Charles L. Cotter and Rose C. Donlon, will be married at 8 o’clock on Thurs-/ day morning. Banns of marriage have been an- nounced for the first time for John C.

Standing on the railroad track at the east end of the station is a hand- some Pullman car. The car is here for the purpose of advertising Indian presence, not to eulogize the name of | ‘Washington, for that were presump- | tion, but to offer the simple tribute of a people’s reverence and love. I “Washington was an American, but | America, great as she is, powerful as | she is, certain as she is of her splen- d1d destiny, can lay no exclusive claim ' to this immortal name. Washington is now a citizen of the world: today | he belongs to all mankind. And so men come here from the ends of the earth to honor his memory and to re- | iterate their faith in the principles to | which his great life was devoted. “Japan claims entrance to this holy circle. She yields to none in rever- ence and respect; nor is there any | gult between the anclent east and the | newborn west too deep and wide for the hearts and the understandings of her people to cross. “It is fitting, then, that men who | love liberty and justice better than they love life, that men who know what honor is, should seek this shrine and here in the presence of these sacred ashes rededicate themselves to the service of humanity. “It is a fitting place, at this time, when all the world is filled with tur- moil and suffering, for comrades in a holy cause to gather and here re- new their fealty to a righteous pur- pose, firm in the determination that the struggle must go on until the world is-free from menace and ag- gression. “Japan is proud to place herself beside her noble allies in this high resolve, and here, in the presence of these deathless ashes, she reaffirms her devotion to the cause and the principles for which they wage battle, fully determined to do her whole part in securing for the world the bless- ings of liberty, justice, and lasting peace. ‘‘As the representative of my peo- ple, then, I place this wreath upon the tomb of Washington with rever- ent hands, and in so doing it is my proud privilege to again pledge my country to those principles of right and justice which have given immor- tality to the name of Washington.” Becretary Danfels, who was the host of the large party that went to Mount Vernon on the yacht Mayflower, re- | plled to Vissount Ishil's speech with assurances of the fidelity of the United Mtates to the same cause, Buy an Indians truck—advt, ! tere: lands, the balance of which are to be sold by the Unlted States government in 40-80 and 180 acre tracts; located in Southeastern Oklahoma which is the best part of that new and fast grow- ing state.

"WHAT IS LIKELY TO HAPPEN IF WE FAIL TO WIN THIS WAR?"” An interview with President Arthur T. Hadley of Yale University. President Arthur T. Hadley of Yale university has been interviewed by a representative of the Connecticut State Council of Defense, under the plan of “Made-in-Connecticut War Interviews,” being carried out by the Council. He entertains strong views on the gravity of the crisis facing this count. and his interest in the cause is more than academic, as he has furnished to the service his two sons, Major Morris Hadley of the Tield Artillery and Lieutenant Hamil- ton Hadley of the Signal Corps. “What is likely to happen if we fail to win this war?” was the signi ficant question put to President Had- ley at the .outset. “A series of war,” was his prompt reply, ‘““begun without notice and waged with much disregard for the rights of non-combatants.” ‘When asked for his grounds for this opinion he continued ‘‘Because leading men in Germany believe that war is a good thing for their country and for the world and should be con- ducted without scruple when the in- terests of Germany seem to require i “Do the German people in general share this view?” he was asked. “Not entirely,” was his reply, “but the German people in general are so patriotic that they are content to do what the military leaders wish and believe what the military leaders say, so long as it brings them victory.” When asked if the warlike spirit of Germany constitutes a direct men- ace to America, President Hadley's reply was unequivocally in the affir- mative. “Yes,” said he, “we know that the Germas secret service has been ac- tive in America, and that the Ger- man government in time of peace suggested that the Mexican army should be used to invade the United States.” “But does not our distance Furope protect us?” suggested questioner. “No. Modern improvements havc made the Atlantic ocean very much less protection today than it was ten years ago; and if progress of inven- tion continues, ten years hence it may be no protection at all.” “Can we not protect ourselves by troaties?” “Not unless the result of the from his war | democracy ? recorded also.

GERMANY TO MAKE Bl TRADE DRIVE American Merchants Must Pre- pare for Sharp Competition ‘Washington, Aug. 27.—“Whatever may be the outcome of the war, Ger- many is going to make as active a canvass for the export trade as its resources and financial condition at the end of the war will allow” is the warning given American business men by the Department of Commerce. The aims of Germany to capture great neutral markets of South and Central America, Spain and the Near East as well as neighboring countries, are disclosed in a report just made available to American business by the j bureau of foreign and domestic com- merce, written by Chauncey D. Snow after a thorough investigation and study. Mr. Snow was in Germany in- vestigating industrial conditions when HARTFORD 14 Inclusive We at 13 From Now Until Sept.

With an as- sured commercial hostility in sucn vast markets, it is obvious that Ger- man export trade must, make the most of the few remaining neutral markets. In the great neutral mar- kets of South and Central America— in which American exporters are more than ever directly interested— in Spain, and in other countries not actively involved in hostilities, Ger- man competition after the war will be particularly severe. At the pres- ent time German over-sea commerce is reduced to practically nothing. The German exporters, however, are en- deavoring to keep in touch with their foreign markets and are doing every- thing they can to preserve their good | will in those markets. In the neutral countries of Scandinavia, the Nether- lands, and Switzerland, Germany has continued to do a considerable ex- port business. Manufacturers in some lines ,since the outbreak of the war, have paid special attention to these countries and have actually won a larger share of the trade than they had before, because of the difficultie those countries have had in obtain- ing ample, prompt, and regular ship- ments by water. Invasion of Near exporters are already exfending “German planning campaigns their business in the Near East. Some for Austria-Hungary when the war stops.” “In looking to the future, the United States has many of the same problems | as Germany and the other warring nations, Like the German exporters, the American exporters have to face a period of sharp business competition in forecign countries such as, prabably, has never before been met. In Ger- many the individual business man, ail the local and great national associa- tions of business men, and the gov- { ernment departments are even now | strenuously occupied with the prob- | lems that must be worked out. The Amecrican business men’s associations e and the government departments are alive ta the importance of these mat- ters, and upon their individual and co- operative efforts through the coming critical years will depend in a larse measure the nation's future in inter- national commerce. “In the German commercial high school at the present time emphasis is more than ever being laid on higher courses in preparation for foreign trade. At the cammercial high school in Berlin, for the winter semester 1916-17, 115 separate courses of in- struction were offered. Of special in- terest are the course on the general science of world trade; the political and economic organizations of the world war and their effect upon its operation; German co-operative or- ganization as a result of the war; coal the economic chemistry of vegetahle and animal products; valua- and iron; of the German writers on foreign trade urge the advisability of mak- ing the most of the German oppor- tunities in that region and arc point- ing out that if sufficient energy were bestowed on the development of Mes- opotamia it would become a second Egypt. They are pointing out that the thing for Germany to do is to | nstablish itself so firmly in the coun- tries to the East that in any future contingency Germany would have overland communication with big and flourishing markets and sources of supply for raw materials all the way east to the Persian Gulf and the Red | Sea. The German Levant banks are | already there. Germany has already taken a hand in the construction of | railroads in the Near East, and if | i the Germans can further irrigation | and the growth of industries in that section, Germany's future in world trade will be more secure. The Near | East is apparently one of the great ! fields where German competition will be keenest. “Among the preparations for the period following the war the inter- national movements between Germany amg Austr Hungary are most inter- esting. In the common cause of war the two empires have been brought very close together,and it is felt gen- erally that following the war they will remain in the closest of ccanomic— possibly, also, political—relations.

Hoover Tnstructs Dealers How They Can Co-operate. Chicago, Aug. 27.—Dealers who ! control a large part of the ice output of the country, met here today for the purpese of devising means of co- operating with the government in its food conservation plan. Herbert C.
