The Toronto meeting will be divid ed into two parts, one for boys ap- proaching manhood and the other for young men. On August 3 the conference will adjourn to meet for another week in Cleveland. In this way foreign delegates will be given an opportunity to study the life of iboth the United States and Canada. Not only the boys and young me; of more than 50 different countries will attend the conference, but many older leaders in religious and philanthropic enterprise. Outstand- ing among these is Dr. John R. Mbtt, president of the World Alli- ance of the Y. M. C. A. Already famous for its leadership of foreign missionary campaillgs, Dr. Mott dis tingulshed himself during the Great War by his organization of Y. M. C. A. work among the allied arm- ies. He was made a Knight of the Legion oi Honuor by France and his own government rewarded him with the Distinguished Service Medal. Soon after the opening of the Conference a fire will be lighted on the grounds and kept burning until tell o'clock Sunday night, August 2. when all delegates have lighted their "friendship torches" the fire will be extinguished, the ashes bur- ied, and the torches carried to the far corner oi the earth to light oth- er fires of friendship. An effort is being made to consolidate the Y. M. C. A. as a great instrument of international peace and brother- comfort.

"Obviously, too, because both Hornby and the traditional snow man were product of. whims- There was another reason for the title. Have you ever thought how futile is a. snow man? He is a ma- jestic perhaps. a figure for all to admire-but what is his destiny, what is his purpose? "There are those of Hornbvs friends in the North who 011111101? reconcile themselves to his going. If they should return to the B11‘- rens tomorrow, they would keep looking for him over the top oi the next escarp.
