21 BELGIANS TO
STUDY IN U. S.
17 Go From America Under
Exchange Plan.
BRUSSELS, Aug. 11.—Two Belgian stu
dents have already embarked for Amer
ica to enter the University of California,
to take advantage of the exchange of stu
dents plan contained in the new civic
charter of the Hoover University Foun
dation.
Nineteen other students will leave Ant
werp Sept. 1 to enter other American uni
versities.
Other schools drawing students from
Belgian universities are as follows: Yale,
Harvard. Princeton, Stanford, Massachu
setts Tech, Columbia, Cornell, Chicago,
Pennsylvania and Johns Hopkins. The
schools they will go from are six from
Brussels, eight from Louvain, four from
Liege, two from Ghent and one from
Mons.
Seventeen American youths will enter
Belgian universities in accordance with
the terms of the exchange plan.
Their names have not yet been made
public.
The Hoover Foundation is the outcome
of what started out as the committee for
the relief of Belgium at the outbreak of
the war in Europe.
It was established as a private enter
prise by Herbert Hoover, whom Belgians
still call blessed.
When the committee’s task of relieving
suffering throughout the devastated dis
tricts was completed a sufficient Ijalance
was left in the treasury not only to re
imburse the Belgian government for the
500.000,000 francs it had contributed, but
also there was a sum between 150 and
ICO millions of francs which the commit
tee was free to do with as it saw fit.
In its solicitude for Belgium's youth
the money was set aside for high edu
cation.
After consultation with officials of the
four Belgian universities and the Mons
school of mines it was decided to set
aside ninety million francs for develop
ment of those schools and seventy mil
lions to be used as a foundation to mak*
money advances to worthy Belgian stu
dents, supplying them with the where
withal to complete higher studies.
A plan for exchange of students with
the larger universities of the United
States was also included in the founda
tion.
The plan was presented to the Belgian
government and the gifts accepted with
gratitude by Premier Delacroix.
A bill was later framed for “civil per
sonification” or incorporation of the foun
dation to empower it to operate under
Belgian statutes.

The Lord Gave You
Your Eyes
But it is up to You
to Keep Them
Most of us have a habit of assuring our
selves that our eyesight will hold out for
ever—then something happens—the vision
begins to blur—objects at far or near dis
tances becomes indistinct—a chronic head
ache sets in—and we wake up to the fact
that our eyes are pretty delicate organisms
and that the best of care is none .oo good.
You can feel fully confident that Dr. J.
E. Kernel or his capable associates will give
your eyes the most conscientious examina
tion possible, and if glasses are recommend
ed will fit your eyes with the proper glasses
to correct your eye defect.
All glasses guaranteed. If lenses need

LEWIS NOTIFIES
WAGE DELEGATES
Reminder of Cleveland Meet
ing Friday Is Sent Out.
John I/. Lewis, president of the United
Mine Workers of America, has sent tele
grams to organization members of the
wage scale committee asking them to at
tend the conference of operators and
miners called by President Wilson to
meet in Cleveland Friday.
President Wilson’s message to Lewis
follows:
“In a statement Issued by me to the
striking members of the United Mine
Workers of America on July 30, 1920,
requesting them to return to work, I
said: ‘ln the consideration of the nation
wide wage scale Involving many differ
ent classes of labor by the bituminous
coal commission In the limited time at
Its some inequalities may have
developed in the award that ought to
be corrected. I can not, however, recom
mend any consideration of such Inequali
ties as long as the mine workers con
tinue on strike In violation of the terms
of the award which they had accepted
as their wage agreement for a definite
length of time. I must, therefore, in
sist that the striking mine workers re
turn to work, thereby demonstrating
their good faith In keeping their con
tract. When I have learned that they
have thus returned to work, I will in- I
vito the scale committees of the operators j
and miners to reconvene for the pur- I
pose of adjusting any such Inequalities, j
as they may mutually agree should be j
adjusted.’
“I have been informed that In compll- j
ance with my request the striking miners '
have now’ resumed work, an, action on
their part which I desire to commend.
In conformity, therefore, with tho prom- j
lse contained In my statement, I here- i
by request the members of tho Joint j
scale committee of operators and miners j
of the central competitive coal field to i
meet In the city of Cleveland. 0., on Frl- ,
day morning, Aug. 13, 1920, for the pur
pose of couslderlug any inequalities that j
may have occurred In the award of the
bituminous coal commission and the Joint j
agreement growing out of the same and j
adjusting any and all such Inequalities !
as the joint scale committee may mu- j
tually agree should be adjusted.’’
A similar message was sent to tbe
operators.

What Have Your Teeth
To Do With Your 111 Health
We are constantly being asked by patients. “What have my teeth
to do with my sickness?” The world has come to know through
physicians and others that bad teeth mean bad health; that the In
fection from a decayed tooth or an ulcerated gum lasts as long as the
condition Is unattended. If your teeth are bad and vour health is low,
you need dentistry. If obtained here it is a high-grade service at low
cost. ‘‘Others failed to extract a wisdom tooth for me, but the Peo
ple's Dentists got it with one pull and no pain.” W. B. Peterson,
