Margaret Quayle Tells of Student Relief in Europe
Committee Secretary Talk to Gathering at Fraser in Interest of Aid Fund
2
"The condition of European students is greatly improved over what it was four years ago, although you cannot imagine conditions which still prevail there," Margaret Quelley secretary of the European relief asked Wednesday afternoon, in speaking to men and women in Fraser chapel.
Miss Quanle spoke about the tasks that confront relief workers who are attempting to give aid to students and professors. She said that the worker must explain where the money and clothing given them comes from, how it was obtained, and in what spirit it was given.
"The workers this year are going to the aid of the sick students, especially the tubercular patients. Our staff, which I had 1,000 were tubercular.
Conferences Aid Work
"Conferences in which all the countries are represented have been best to establish world friendship among the students. At the first one 153 students from 32 schools were present, and at a conference last year in Czecho-Slovakia, 150 students represent 32 schools. These correspondence was answered by the Quayle answered when asked how students worked together.
No.52
Economy Practiced
"need of school supplies is another great problem, and ore which the American students cannot help with so much, due to the fact that they cannot read our language. But we can send them paper and pens, and then studying out of one text book, each taking his turn reading.
"The students practice econom., well as study it," said Miss Quaile. "In other places students take turns to learn about clothes and enough clothing for all. Co-operation in the greatest sense is practiced by the students." said Miss Quaile in telling of a few of the hardships that the European students faced.
The committee in charge of the Christmas celebration this year gave a dinner for Miss Quayle at the Colonial tea room last evening. Here Miss Quayle answered all questions regarding the way the money given to her was used, told the worth of giving for the relief or those fellow students.
Miss Quyley left last night for Emporia. She is visiting the various campuses of the country in the interest of the European student relief, and the student friendship fund, "Con" Hoffman is chairman of the committee of which Miss Quyley is secretary.

Psychological Tests Show That Practice Improves Memory
Specific Training Strengthen Certain Kind of Mental Work Used
Work Used
"Poor memory is due to poor man management rather than to an inferior faculty of memory," according to the Daily Science News Bulletin.
"Psychologists, after testing the memories of many people, are able to announce two very encouraging results. First, that nearly everyone has more power of memory than he imagines; second, that intensive training produces great improvement in memory."
However, Doctor Woodworth states that the training does not develop the general faculty of memory but simply increases the power of doing the particular kind of memory work that is practiced.
"The first step is to see exactly what memory job needs to be perfected; and then proceed to practice it." The word "worthy" implies that worth believes. "If you wish to improve your memory for poetry, you must practice memorizing poetry; or, if you wish to remember names and connect the name with the face."
"This inner resistance interferes considerably with the improvement which the man might make. If he was given a chance, he thought, it is in his power to improve.
"However, a very curious state of affairs often comes to light just here. A man who desires to improve his performance at the details of his particular job

Authorities Are Agreed O Tremendous Advantages Derived by Meetings
Relations of Committee Republics Improved by Series of Conferences
（100% 符合标准）
Washington, Nov. 2. - Profound effects on the future relationship between the Ancient republic, resulting from the acres of Pen American conferences now in progress, are for aecilious observers here.
In years gone by there has not a some skepticism regarding the actual benefits from the Pan-American conferences which dealt with political matters; as the agreements reached later failed to secure ratification.
But all authorities are agreed on the tremendous advantages to be derived, by all countries from the various technical and educational meetings which are now being planned. Within the next two years there will occur inter-American conferences dealing with national policy, highways, selence, codification of American law and standardization. While all of these conferences are conducted with the assent and support of the various American governments the delegations usually represent experts of non-official character, who profit greatly from the knowledge and the cultivation of personal acquaintanceskins.
The next of the great conferences will be the Third Pan-American Scientific Congress at Lima, Peru, from Dec. 20, 1924, to Jan. 6, 1925. Simultaneously in the same city will occur a conference on standardization.
Already there has been great co-operation between scientific men of the American republics, particularly in the field of medicine. Hundreds of South American physicians of highest rank have studied in universities in the United States or visited here for special training in the auspices of the Roseville Institute.
