...with the forming of the World's Student Christian Federation consisting of separate Student Movements in 12 countries, Dr. Mott was elected General Secretary, a position which he has held ever since. In that capacity he made an extensive tour of the world, 1895 to 1897, during which he studied carefully the academic life of the different nations and founded the Student Movements of India, China, Japan, and Australia. In recognition of this world-Wide work in behalf of students, Yale University conferred upon him the degree of M. A. in 1899. After this first tour of the world...

"Them is harsh words", editor; as "Tommy" says, as the Boche bomb lies at a distance unexploded "there might be something in it', but wouldn't it be a little more like "the thing" to figure that "c'est la guerre." Since the war started Lloyd George has shipped all London's red tape to "blighty" or as that Guy Empey might say, "west"; south would be more to the correct atmospheric direction.
