Il favor an immediate convention
OF neutral nations, out of which
may come a body of doctrine hav-
ing to do with the respective flu
ture rights OF neutrals and bellig-
erents In the light of modern life
and the experience of the European
war. This body of doctrine would
be offered for joint signatures of
the European nations after the
present war is at an end. Il is con-
fidently believed that many acts of
injustice now don by belligerents to-
ward neutrals would be impossible

four gir]s-constituted the twelfth
grade. In the present spring the
board Of trustees voted to add anoth-
er high school teacher and to provide
the labratory equipment needed for
learning of the intention, very gener-
ously placed the Malta High school
on the accredited list so that the pu-
pills, who received their diplomas on
May 10Th of this year may enter the
state educational institutions on a
par with graduates of any high
school in the State OF Montana.
While much progress has been
made the people and the teachers
realize that there is much yet to be
done, and it will be done. Manual
training, domestic science and spec
ial art and music instruction will be
added in due time. The standard of
preparation and experience of teach
ers has been fixed on a high plane
The building and equipment will be
ample. With a fine grade of children
to be educated there is nothing but
a rosate future before the Malta pub
lie schools. They make Malta a
good place in which to live.
The teachers, who will have
charge OF the Malta schools during
l916-17 have all been elected. The
following have definitely accepted
the positions following their names:
Huldah Thompson, Belmont, Mont

The latest figures as to population
We're gathered the past winter by
te members of the politicsclass in
the high school. The city was diyid-
ed into districts, in each of which
certain members of the class secured
the number of people, the length
OF residence, and the number of
families owning their own homes
The following figures are somewhere
near the exact number for the differ
