IBANEZ ON THE LEAGUE

Senor Vincente 3lasoo lbanez. the
famous Spanish author giving some
OF his shrewd Impressions of Ameri.
ca In a recent address, said:
"The League OF Nations Is entirely
an American product. In inspiration.
ideal ard purpose. DO you know why
the United States hasn't adopted it?"
Then he answered his own question,
thus:
"Iiecause other nations were won
10 It's side. II European peoples had
opposed the League OF Nations, your
legislators would have. regarded II as
an affront and would have demanded
its adoption"
This IL not very complimentary to
Americans, but isn't there u good
deal OF truth in 1t? Certainly the
league had stronger American sup
port while Europe seemed Indifferent
to II than it has had since Europe
turned In its favor.

ARE GIVEN
ON FOREIGN TRADE

I tI3y Associated Press - The Bnnner1
NEW YORK, Dec. 27 Foreign
rade handled in ten leading United
States customs districts in 1919, ac-
cording to statistics just made public
here, aggregated $S,S42,769,OOO in i'm
ports and exports of which New
York led with 45.5 percent. This
ports proportion of the Cotal imports
handled was 44.3 percent. and of the
exports 463 percent.
There was lively competition for
second place 1t was said, between
Boston, Philadelphia, Baltimore, New
Orleans, San Francisco and Seattle,
New Orleans won for the first time
in several years. Philadelphia crowd
ed New Orleans so close chat an adj
dition of million dollars to the val
ne of the formers foreign commerce
would have placed her in the lead.
Seattle, Boston, San Francisco, De-
troit, Baltimore, Galveston and Buff
falo followed in the order named.
During the preceding fiscal year Se-
attic snatched second position from
Philadelphia, which had just achieved
1t for the first time in many years.
Baltimore and Galveston lead Bos.
ton and San Francisco in the value
Of their exports, but the weakness of
the fircj named ports lies in the pauc-
ity of their imports. There is no port
in which imports exceeded exports,
although they come nearer to balanc-
ing at Boston.

was one of these groups that origin
ated the idea of sending frosh on
the home trail clad only in B. V. ID. s
and shoes, which example was wide
ly followed by all war parties
throughout the evening. Any time
after 1890 at least one airly clad
frosh could be seen speeding down
any street on College hill. And, oh,
how they could run, thus clad, in
the evening breeze.
AS the evening progressed there
were more and more frosh stragglers
from the main fight, and more and
more homeruns in b. V. DIS. The
paddle was used most handily the
while. Finally, the main battle hav-
ing ceased to be, and the supply Of
eligible paddle material having ebb-
ed, all participants toddled home to
sleep-that is with several excep-
tions. When all was still, small
party of frosh issued from hiding
and went to work on the stack. And
the next morning brand new "23,"
nicely blocked, could be seen
where? Above the old 900" Such
are the ways of frosh.
Throughout the war the sympa-
thies of the upperclass men seemed
to be with the sophs, scattered jun
Tors being present in the war parties.
This is no doubt accounted for by
the undiplomatic actions of the frosh
in starting things on Tuesday and in
not following an established preced-
ent in painting their numerals the
first time, but this last act of crime
this painting a paltry "23' above
the old, famed "06" capped the CHI
max. If frosh can not do according
to the unwritten laws of the school
they should not do at all. So with
Wednesday night all trouble ceased.
Each night after that, until the
frosh-soph meet settled matters,
Gray w men guarded the campus,
that no frosh should write his name
or numerals On Bryan Hall, or com
nit any other such equally original
act such as could be expected.

Did the Work For
 Me-" Farmer Says
Joe EIIineer of Rockford, Wash, Gains Seventeen Pounds
 Taking TanIac

"Tanlac put me in such fine shape that I was able to plant a big crop without hardly knowing I had done a bit of hard work" said Joe Ellinger, a we'll known farmer, living at Rock ford, Wash, while in Mslrgittroyd's Drug Store in Spokane, Wash, re- gently. MT. Ellinger homesteaded his place in 1880 and has been living there ever since.
 T had been bothered a good deal with rheumatism and was geneI ally run down in health" continued MT. Ellinger T didn't have any appetite to speak of and sometimes the very smell of food, or even the sight of it, turned me against it and I couldn't enjoy what I did eat and it seemed to do me no good at all. At times the rheumatic pains were so bad I could not even turn over in bed without first rubbing my legs till they timber ed up and sometimes they would cramp and draw up so I would be in such pain I could hardly stand it. If I happened to be walking when these pains and cramps struck me I would just have to stop in my tracks, be- cause I COuluu ldke duOluci step. l was troubled with dizzy spells, too, and if I made a quick move could scarcely keep on my feet and every thing in front of my eyes would seem to go black. I couldn't get a good nights rest, either, because I was wakeful and tossed around a good deal and when I got up in the morn ing felt all tired out, with no energy to do anything and seemed to be getting worse all the time.
 T was in just this fix when I got to reading about Tanlac and decided to give it trial to see what it might do for me and it certainly proved to be just what I needed, because since have taken it haven't had single rheumatic pain and my legs don't cramp or bother me a bit now never get dizzy any more, either, and Tanlac sure did make my appetite pick up, and now just the smell of food makes me feel all the hungrier

WHERE BOARDING IS DONE. JeW York Tribune.

That there is any considerable hoarding by householders is improb- able. It is to their interest to buy little. Nor is it likely tht there is marked hoarding by retailers, for they fear fall in prices and seek to keep their stocks low. But the evidence is that large dealers have extra goods which they are holding back This, if true, greatly simplifies the proc ess of remedy which is the simple one of unlocking the warehouses and selling their contents for what they will bring. It sounds almost too sim pie, and perhaps it is. The violent fall in prices might be only tempo rary, consumption might be greatly. even wastefully, increased, and when the surplus was gone the second state might be worse than the first.

Travel from the interjor. es- pecially. is larger than in 5ormer years. most of it being persons des- tined for the states. Travellers com ing from the Innoko, Iditalud.

King William of Prussia Was proclaimed Gvrr un em- peror About five wteNa later. the French envoys were forcoJ tp ign the preliminaries of the hard peace im- posed upon France by Bismarck.
 The Germans set an imposing stage for the first ceremony. old King William, the Crown Prince Frederick, father of the last German emperor; Bismarck, Moltke and other prussian generals and princes, assembled for q religious service. After the sermon esta blishing the empire, and Bismarck followed with the proclamation, which concluded: May God grant us and our successors ever to be increasers of the German empire, not by warlille conquests, but with the Sraces and gifts of peace for the national well be- ing, for freedom and civilization"
 Cheers fov the new emperor were led by the Grand Duke of Baden.
 It wls at i1ismark's Eodginss in the Rue de Provence, Versailles. that he negotiated the peace treaty prelinln = aries with the French representatives, Thiers and l'avre.
