National League.

Sheriff j. +. Green and Thomas
Kemp, chief Of police, have just re-
ceived letters urging them to take steps
to organize traffic officers associa
ton and become part of national or

so successful in standardizing traffic

thieves that a national association is
now contemplated.

Great Crowd Swells Chorus
Of Patriotic Songs at
" Meeting.
YOUNGSTER CHEERED

Applause at Bi-W eekly
Gathering.

lie wal HAS COME bitterly nome to
western Montana within the last fort
night. but the Tuscania tragedy has
not weakened Missoula's devotion to
the cause The city's patriotism is
deeper and stronger than ever If the
spirit with which national songs were
sung yesterday at the BIZ weekly Com
munity Sing is any indication. The
tremendous volume of the chorus when
The Star Spangled Banner" and "Over
There" were sung was evidence Of a
firmer resolution to smite the Hun.
Theater Completely Filled.
Every available inch of space in the
MissOula theater was occupied yester-
day afternoon by men, women and chill
dren who came to enjoy the community
singing. And when the orchestra struck
up familiar war songs there were few
silent threats in the house. II the
kaiser could have heard Tramp,
Tramp, Tramp the war would be over
tonight.
Chorus Shows Improvement.
DeLoss Smith led the singing as
usual. and the effect of his capable di-
rection was discernable in the increased
power OF the singing. Under the lea
dership OF the university dean the com
munity chorus is becoming a musical
organization worth going far to hear
and help.
Girl 10 Hit Of Afternoon.
Little Mabel Olson, eight year. old
violinist of Missoula, was the hit of the
afternoon. The child played two violin
numbers charmingly and was loudly APP
plauded. The university orchestra al
so played to vary the program. and was
appreciated.
The next Community Sing will be
held two weeks from yesterday in the
theater.

to the Union block for the night, and
In the morning took an automobile to
