Washington, May 2.--America, re-
awakened in national spirit through
lessons of the war in Europe, was the
theme of an address by President Will
son yesterday at the opening of the
national service school military en-
campment for young women.
In concluding, the president voiced a
warning that the honor and integrity
of the United States cannot be tamper-
ed with. He prayed that the country
should not be drawn into war, but de-
clared that if it should be, "in the
great voice of national enthusiasm,
which would be raised, all the world
would stand once more thrilled to hear
the voice of the new world asserting
the standards of justice and liberty"
The president expressed confidence

Minot, N. D., May 2.-It is believed
that the crest of the Mouse river flood
in this city has been attained, the river
having reached an 18-foot level, where
it is practically stationary.
The river has driven many people
from homes in lower sections of the
city, but no great danger is entailed.
In the rural districts, where Mouse
river flows through very fiat territory,
it has spread over a wide territory.
