MISS CHAMBERLAIN SECOND
Denison Contestant in State Oratori-

Makes Another Record.
The Iowa State High School Ora
torical contest was held at Reinbeck
Friday evening of last week and Den
isons contestant, Miss Ethel Cham
berlin, was awarded second place in
the humorous class by the judges.
Miss Chamberlin has made a record
for herself in oratorical work, having
won number of places during the
last year. At the district contest,
which was held in Denison recently,
Clarence Obrecht was awarded first
place in the humorous class by the
judges. After the contest had been
held it was found that the selection
which he delivered had been given
before at a state contest and under
the rules the same selection cannot
be entered twice in state contest,
and for this reason Miss Chamberlin
was allowed to represent the district
in the state contest.
Had Miss Chamberlin chosen bet
ter selection she would have undoubt-
edly won first place, for she handled
the piece excellently and her deliv-
cry. articulation and gestures were
of the best.
At the state contest Roy Fricken,
of Grundy Center, received first and
Howard Walters, of Guthrie Center,
second in the oratorical class. In the
dramatic Matte Wiley, Of Rolfe, first,
Carrie Mcfarland, of Waterloo, Sec
ond. In the humorous class Myrtle
Gunderson, of Waukon, received first,
while Miss Chamberlin was awarded
second place.
The young ladies of the S. S. club

INDIGNATION AT VATICAN.
Burnett Bill is Declared to be an
Anti-CathOlic Measure.

Berlin, Feb. 17.-Dispatches from
Rome say that the utmost indigna-
ton prevails in Vatican circles in
Rome over the Burnett immigration
Bill.
The Papal authorities make no Sc
cret of their conviction that the bill
was conceived from deliberately anti
Catholic motives, and it is sincerely
hoped that the United States Senate
will kill it. Cabled reports Of Presi-
dent Wilson's opposition to the liter
acy test evoke much satisfaction at
the Vatican.
Italian, Austrian, and Hungarian
Catholic immigrants would be those
mainly affected by the bill, it is
stated, and at least 55 per cent of
italians would be excluded by the
1iteracy test and 40 per cent of Aus
tro-Hungarians.
There is reason to believe that the
Vatican is eXerting such influence as
it commands at Washington to bring
pressure to bear in the direction of
annihilating the bill of the "anti-
Catholic" clause as the literacy pro-
vision is termed.
The New York Tribune of June
8. 1914, contained a special dispatch
from Washington headed: Trust
Bill used to Bury Literacy Test-Wil-
son and Democratic leaders eager to
dodge ISSUE" and stating that "the
Pres dent and some of his followers
are trying to evade the immigration
bill" because "a religious contro-
versy has been injected" (The r. G.
Hierarchy have ordered the bill sup
pressed.) "The immigration ques-
ton is one which the admin stration
would rather evade than solve," etc.
The question is what are you go

dent and a party that is jamming
