GOVERNMENT MULE is
TO BE REPLACED BY AUTO

Washington.-Cons progres
is being made lin the movement to
eliminate the army mule and substi-
tute the autotruck. according to the
report of Brigadier General j. b.
Aleshire. quartermaster general of
the amy.
1t has already been found after
careful investigation and experiment
that the auto truck is more economi-
cal and more efficient when used In
cities and over good roads. Three
such trucks are now being used at san
Francisco, Cal, one at Fort Sam
Houston, Texas. one at West Point,
\ Y. and seven in Manila.
Efforts are now being made to OBJ
tain a truck which will replace the
animal drawn wagon and troops IN
the field. The ordinary commercial
truck is not suitable as a means of
transportation in the field, says Gener-
al Aleshire, but truck of special
type has already been planned for
testing purposes.
The commercial truck is usually too
heavy when loaded to be safely used
over country bridges and culverts
The idea carried out in the expert
mental truck is that with a load OF
5000 pounds. it will not weigh over
5000 pounds.

TREATY OF GHENT MAY BE
CELEBRATED DEC. 81, 1914.
Not Improbable That Congress Will
BE Asked to Appoint Committee to
RcDreSent the United States,

Washington, D. C.-That no ade-
quate provision can be made for the
proposed celebration of the signing
of the treaty of Ghent, Dec. 81, 1914,
between the United States and Great
Britain, unless the American congress
and the British parliament take the
matter in hand, is the opinion of DR..
Benjamin F. Trueblood, secretary of
the American Peace society.
1t is not imorobable that congress
will be asked this winter to appoint
a committee to represent the United
States in making proper arrangements
for the celebration.
DR.. Trueblood believes the signing
of the Rush -Bagot agreement in 1857,
when the United States and Great
Britain practically abolished all ar
maments on the great lakes, was an
event of equal Importance with the
signing of the Client treaty. and ii
should receive equal attention when
the celebration is held.
For a hundred years" said DR.
Trueblood, "the United States and
Canada have lived side by side with
no battleships on the lakes or forts
on the frontier. This is one of the
greatest arguments for naval disarm-
ament."

BAKER SEES HARD
GAME IN PENDLETON

Baker, Ore, Nov. 15.-Baker high
school football team will leave tomor-
row morning for Pendleton for the
18th annual game between the schools
there on Friday afternoon. Since
1899 there has been but one game
omitted. In the IL games Baker has
won seven and tied one and lost four.
Naturally the annual game. which or
iginally was a Thanksgiving event, is
of paramount Importance in the foot
ball annals of each year for eastern
oregon. During all these gridiron
battles there has always been and al
ways is the keenest rivary possible
and save for minor accidents there
has been only two men hurt among
Bakers men. These were Earl Holley
and Robert kellogg. both of whom
sustained broken collar bones. The
local boys will probably go into the
game with about the same lineup as
was sent against La Grande Saturday
They are in good condition and will
enter the game with the conscious
ness that they are playing a very
strong team and must put every ounce
of strength forth to win.

VALLEY CITY, N. D., Oct. 90
The Valley City Normal School has
introduced an innovation in their
physical education during the fall
term. The superintendent of this de-
partment, Prof. T. W. Burckhalter,
believes in outdoor exercises as the
best method of developing the body
and minds of his pupil. All gymnas-

classes are working in the open air.
Prof. Burkhalter is highly pleased
with the results of the open air ath-
letic work. The interest in the work
shows a marked increase.
