uMTlTl SATURDAY wE
4 GREAT SUCCESS

The Children's play and cantata,
given in the Unique Theatre last Sat-
urday afternoon was one Of the most
pleasing features Of the Commence
ment exercises SO far. The program
opened with . Mother Goose play in
which Bruce Palmer, lima Miller and
Lillian Bates were the leading chara-
ters. One after another Mother
Goose" people, real live people came
upon the stage, and cleverIy repre-
sented their parts. 1t was a real
treat for the children, and those in at
tendance, both old and young were de-
lighted with it. It was given by the
children of the 1st grade.
The second part Of the program was
a cantata, "Welcome Spring." This
was given by the children of the sec
ond, third and fourth grades. 1t was
a very pretty production. The music
was good and well rendered, and the
children were SO costumed as to rep
resent different flowers Of the spring
season. There was the green grass,
the stately lily, the sweet pea, the yell
low dandelion, the golden doffodil, the
red tulip, and most amazing Of all
there was real (?) Robin. The dig
nified and sedate ways Of Mr.. Robin
aroused the interest and admiration
Of all, and he was compelled to return
by the hearty and insistent applauses
Of the audience.
An especially effective scene was
"Spring" seated upon a beautiful
throne in all her glory.
Both the Mother Goose play and the
"Springtide Cantata'' showed very
careful preparation, and tireless en-
ergy. The teachers Of the lower
grades and their assistants deserve
much credit for their good work
Such exercises as these are Of real
value, and they bring home their les
sons to those who take part which will
never be forgotten.
The Mother Goose play was directed
by Miss Blanche Ross, and the Can
tata was under the supervision Of
Miss Agnes Walker, assisted by Miss
es nellie Miller and Lillian Smith.
The proceeds were about $40, and
after the few expenses had been paid,
the remainder was divided among
Miss Ross, Miss Myers, and Miss
Gleason. who will use it to buy rec
ords for the victrolas in their differ
ent rooms.

Copenhagen. July 1.-THE Berlin
correspondents report that, Count
Brockdorff- Rantsau, the German min
lister to Copenhagen, has been selected
to succeed DR.. Alfred Zimmerman as
foreign secretary. Should this report
be confirmed 1t would mean the re-
turn of the aristocratic traditions of
the Germans service.
Count Brockdorff- Rantzau is .eborn''
In the German sense Of the word and
highly connected at court through his
twin brother. who holds a htgh court
position, and through his mother.
Countess Brockdorff- Rantzau. mistress
of the robes to the empress and one
of the most masterful and dominant
personages in court life.
Far more important to America is
the role which Count Brockdorff-
Rantzau played with respect to Ger
man American relations during the
war. Not being altogether satisfied
with the conduct of relations through
the prescribed channel, the German
government endeavored to open COM
munication through Count Brockdorff-
Rantzau and used the minister to
transmit to Washington, through the
American minister at Copenhagen, DIR.
Maurice Egan, communications de-
signed to take the edge from tense
situations.
Count Brockdorff- Rantzau had long
believed such agreements impossible
and had labored in this direction.
After the failure of the German peace
proposals. he acceptend the pending
rupture as fact.
The new foreign secretary has a
superficial reputation for being some
thing Of a sluggard with small taste
for society. but beneath. he is a man
of firm. strong hand. with considerable
energy for execution. He is a cousin
of Count Won Bernstorff and unmar-

versity Is preparing to meet its re-
sponsibilities no less energetically.
The summer sessions Of the university
have made a special effort to interest
their teacher-student body in the ne.
cessity which exists for developing In
the young people Of the state that
spirit without which there can be no
true patriotism. Every department of
the summer session has made some
definite contribution to this work.
Experts and Plants Volunteered.
In the field Of scientific research and
investigation. the departments of sci
ence in the university have placed
their people and their plants at the dis
posal Of the government. The schoo,
OF pharmacy is working out expert
ments which are part of the general
scheme for producing in this country
drugs which have hitherto been i'm.
ported. The departments of chemis-
try are in line for similar work, their
whole equipment ready for orders.
The school of forestry has specially
heavy responsibility in this connec-
ton. AS early as May all OF its
available students had been assigned
to service in the semi military duties
OF the federal forestry bureau and
plans are making now TO add to the
number OF students who will be able
to answer the call in the autumn.
Many War Courses.
Courses in military science will be
offered this fall at both the Agricul-
tural College and the State University:
there will be, also. courses in nursing
and Red Cross work at these institu-
tons. The details of these new
courses have been worked out and
definite announcement will soon be
made from the office Of the chancellor,
But the grave responsibility which
rests upon the University of Montana
In common with other similar institu-
tons in the country. Is the preparation
OF the young people OF its state to meet
the demands which war makes upon
the citizen. Training Of Americans
In the real sense Of the name Is me
idea which will be the keynote OF the
work OF the University Of Montana
during the years that are ahead. To
this end, there are new courses TO he
offered during the coming year and
there will be changes made in estab.
iishcd courses to adapt them more
surely to the demands of the new con-
ditions of the country.
