GERMAN NATIONAL ASSEMBLY
PATIFIES PEACE TREATY

WIENER, July IA, (VIA COB
LENZ)-The resolution ratifying
the peace treaty was adopted by the
German National Assembly Wednes-
day by a vote of 208 to 115. =
The resolution reads:
"The peace treaty signed on June
%, 1919, as well as the protocol an
nexed and special agreements on mil
itary occupation of the Rhineland are
hereby ratified. This law becomes
effective from the time of its pro-
mitigation"
Ratification of the peace treaty by
the German National Assembly re-
moves all doubt of the acceptance of
the terms by Germany.
The National Assembly by ratify-
ing the treaty makes it possible for
the Allied and Associated Powers to
raise the blockade. Official notifica-
ton was sent Germany June 20 that
the blockade would be raised when
the treaty was ratified. Placing this
condition on the raising of the block
ade was looked upon in peace con-
ference circles as a sure plan for Sc
curing speedy ratification by Ger
many.
The Council of Five previously de-
cided to lift the commercial censor
ship on communications with Ger
many simultaneously with the block
| ade.
The resolution adopted by the AL
lied council concerning the blockade
was as follows: ~.
"The superior blockade council is
| instructed to base its arrangements
for resembling restriction upon trade
with Germany upon the assumption
that the Allied and Associated
Powers will not wait to raise the
blockade until the completion of rati-
fication, as provided for at the end
of the treaty with Germany, but that
it is to be raised Immediately upon
receipt of information that the treaty
of peace has been ratified by Ger.
many"
PRONUNCIATION of the resolution
ratifying the treaty is dependent up.
on the signing of the resolution by
President Ebert. -
The German National Assembly is
the first elective body in any country
whose representatives signed the
treaty to adopt a ratifying resolu.
ton. The treaty has been laid before
the British, French and Belgian par.
liaments, and will be placed before
the Senate of the United States
Thursday by President Wilson.

To most people whose oppOrtuni-
ties for observing fish life are limited
to occasional visits to an aquarium,
the thought rarely occurs that these
finny inhabitants of the waters are
capable of as many varied emotions
as are our domestic pets, the cat and
the dog.
In the Popular Science Monthly
and Worlds Advance appears an &C
count of the investigations conducted
by DR.. Francis Ward, an English
zoologist, into the behavior and life
of fish in their natural environment.
Speaking of the emotions of differ
ent fish, the writer says:
I'VE are accustomed to think that
only we humans become pallid with
fear, or agitated with joy. But some
experiments with perch in the arti-
fetal pond show that when their re-
pose is suddenly disturbed by tapping
on the glass the fish visibly tremble,
and the bars which are Characters
tic of this species actually disappear
when the disturbance is removed and
the equanimity of the fish is restored.
Sometimes a pike that is rapidly
advancing on his prey becomes sus-
picious about the latter's character.
The pursuer will suddenly stop, in an
attitude of doubt, his back will arch,
and he will remain suspended as
though studying the cause of his sus-
picions. Only when he is thoroughly
treasured does he become rigid, to
advance to the final attack; If his
suspicion is not allayed, he drops to
the bottom of the pond or swims off
in disappointment"

WHO FOUNDED THE RED CROSS
SOCIETY," ANSWERED

A correspondent wants to know
who founded the Red Cross. But
she desires that her name be with
held, because she is member of the
Red Cross and is ashamed that she
does not know who founded the in
stitution.
Lake Division headquarters of the
American Red Cross supplies the
following information: Henri Dun
ant was the founder of the Red
Cross. He was a man of means, de-
voted much of his life to the alevi-
alton OF human suffering and was
known as one of the most philanthro-
pic Of men. He was half French and
half Swiss.
After the battle of Solferino, where
the Austrians were routed and where
Europe was freed from the menace of
the Hapsburgs, Dunant visited the
field and the hospitals. The arrange
ments for taking care of the wound
ed were so poor that he determined
then and there to devote the rest of
his life to perfecting plans for the
care and treatment of soldiers en-
gagged in battle-and he didn't care
whose soldiers they were. He be-
gan writing letters to prominent
people, and asking for support of his
proposition.
Empress Eugenia, of France, was
one of the first prominent persons to
take an interest in Dunant's PROPOSE
ton. The mother of the ex-Kaiser
was early impressed with the idea.
She was a daughter of Queen VictO
ria, of England. She and Eugenia
had much to do with the success of
the idea, but many other prominent
people also had a good deal to do
with it.
A convention was called at Geneva
on October 26, 1868, and fourteen
nations sent representatives the OBJ
ject of the convention being stated
to be "An international conference
for the purpose of inquiring into the
means for correcting the inadequacy
Of the sanitary service of armies in
the field" Dunant addressed the
conference and urged his ideas upon
the delegates, with the result that
the convention adopted resolutions
declaring war hospitals inviolate,
and ordering that nurses and sur
geons should be safe from molesta-
ton. The delegates made arrange
ments at the time for the formation
Of an international society to attend
to the details, and adopted the en-
blem-a Red Cross upon a white
field. That was the origin of the
Red Cross.
To-day the extension of the idea,
service to sufferers of all nations and
peoples, constitutes the peace time
program of this world revered orga-
nization.

LOSS OF APPETITE.

AS a general rule there is nothing
serious about loss of appetite, and
if you skip a meal or only eat two
meals a day for a few days you will
soon have a relish for your meals
when meal time comes. Bear in
mind that at least five hours should
always elapse between meals, so as
to give the food ample time to digest
and the stomach a period of rest be-
fore a second meal is taken. Then If
you eat no more than you crave and
take a. reasonable amount of out
door exercise every day you will not
need to worry about your appetite.
When the loss of appetite is caused
by constipation, as is often the case,
that should be corrected at once. A
dose of Chamberlain's Tablets Will
do it. (july-adv)

BANK EMPLOYEES ARE SAVERS

The National Bank of Commerce
at Springfield, Mo-, has won the dis
tinction of being the first bank in
the Eighth Federal Reserve District,
so far as reported, to organize War
Savings Society comprising the Off
GERS and employees of the bank.
The big city in the southwestern
mart of Missouri, was recently visited
by organizers from the headquarters
of the War Savings Organization, and
the bank officials and clerks took an
active interest in the work.
John Landers, Chairman or the
Board of Directors, aided in forming
the organization, and was one of the
first signers of the pledge cards.

PARIS. March 1O.-The peace treaty
will probably include a clause reQuir-
Ing Germany to hand over all persons
responsible for war atrocities and also
provide means for extradition.
This power. II was said today. would
apply to persons now actually In Ger

kaiser Is another question.

reach the ex-kaiser. Lhe treaty may
include a clause branding him for all
time as the worlds greatest criminal.
The likelihood Of williams returning

and being re-instated In power. Is now
taken seriously here as the best in
