Even Opponents Oppose De.
lay of Treaty by Clubbing
in the Senate.
By DAVID LAWRENCE.

Special Dispatch to The Star
EN- ROUTE WITH PRESIDENT
WILSON TO BISMARCK, N. D.. Sep
TENDER 10.-More sinister than po-
1itical chaos abroad is the menace of
| industrial revolution, more vital to
America than a mere choice as be-
tween foreign policies is the prospect
of trying to do business with Europe
in disorder financially, feeble and
physically decrepit.
That is the new tack on which
President Wilson has launched as he
passes through Minnesota and the
Dakotas. For here where foodstuffs
are produced to feed the world people
are interested in foreign markets ana
the ability of foreign countries to
pay for their purchases.
The President sought in his speeches
at Sioux Falls and before he Min
nesota legislature to show that the
cost of living is related to the dis
turbed economic situation of Europe
and that the economic turmoil in
Europe cannot be quieted until the
people there know what kind of a
peace is to ensue and VINO lis to
guarantee it, and finally the President
insisted that Europe cannot tell the
immediate direction Of her trade
winds and welfare until she knows
whether or not the United States means
to assist her or stand aloof
League Idea in Great Favor.
Mr.. Wilson did not need to make an
analytical argument for the league of
nations treaty of peace in this re-
gion. For the people are overwhelm-
ingly in favor of the idea. If reser-
vations do not mean textual amend
ments then there is no particular OBJ
lection to them. AS between a league
without reservations and no league
at all. the people would vote for an
unqualified covenant.
But they will follow Senator Knute
Nelson on that point
For in the Dakotas and Minnesota
the unmistakab1e fact is that people
who are bitterly opposed to Mr. Will
son and some of his domestic policies
and they are not a small percent
age. but a large majority-would
rather see the treaty of peace out of
the way than see it delayed by a quib-
bling Senate.
Until the President came out this
way they had taken it for granted
that the Senate would not delay peace.
They had assumed that the treaty
would be ratified. Only from the lips
of the President are they learning
of the dire consequences Of a defeated
treaty and are wondering whether the
Senate really means to put America
into the unfortunate position of hold
ing up the peace of the world. And
the impression which Mr.. Wilson
makes is not very convincing in those
particulars, because. while the people

No Scheming Motive.

The President said if he were a
"scheming politician" he would well
come the issue. But he wants the
people to believe he has no idea of
that sort in the back of his mind.
And, judging by the way republicans
as well as democrats in this section
have embrac ed the issue irrespective
of party advantage or disadvantage,
one gets the impression that while
a politician here and there. an editor
or two. really believe this is a third
term campaign of Mr.. Wilson's, the
great majority appear to think it a
determined effort to consummate
eight years of administration with an
achievement of international co -opeE-
alton that will benefit the United
States of America. and war-torn
world.

Johnson are advising. The President
argues that Americas isolation is
over whether she wills it or not. and
that she will be distposted if she plays
lone hand.
Partners or Antagonists.
Shall we be partners or antago-
nists?" asks the President, and his
audiences never fail to agree with
him in their chorus of answers. The
crowd at Minneapolis again and
again interrupted with shouts of ap-
proval-"You are right" or Yes,
yes as Mr.. Wilson asked if they
wanted to enter the league.
There is no question about the
warmth Of the receptions in Sioux

St. Paul and Minneapolis. despite the
rain, immense crowds turned out, but

TROOP SIXTEEN
HOLDS BANQUET
Scout Commissioner German
and Scout Executive Virgin
Make Addresses

There's no use asking what any
Wolf Cub or Scout thought or our
banquet on Friday night, for you all
will say it was great We all met
at the church and when all had
arrived, some with their fathers, we
assembled IN the dining room, Where
the Rev. Markward asked the bless
ing. / am sure that everyone had
more than he could eat. After the
meal was served our guests spoke
to us.
Scout Commissioner w. II. Ger
man gave a short, but interesting
talk. Then came Scout Executive
Virgin, whose talk was full of fun
and pep, and who wanted to know
what sort of an animal cub is.
Field Executive Huntsberger in q
brief talk gave us some good advice
and urged us to come down and take
our tests. Mr.. Writ, chief forest hre
warden of the State, was present and
told us of the necessity for the pres
ervation of our trees and forests.
The Rev. Markward also addressed
us on the need of joining a church,
be it Jewish, Catholic or Protestant.
Three generations of the Long
family were present at our anniver-
sary. Captain Long and Lieutenant
Long met for the first time that
night since they had left each other
in the Argonne forest in France.
Assistant Scoutmaster Wieland
received his commission and the
first merit badge in our Troop was
awarded to Frank Foose. John
Steiner was presented with hrst-
class pin, and Paul Kunkel received
his second -class pin. Four Scouts,
Joseph McClintock. Russell Brown,
Marlin Rodenheber, John Steiner,

Second Anniversary Of
Troop Is Properly Marked

In spite of the terrific rain last
Friday, Troop SiXteen's second ami
versary was celebrated in proper
style. We were certainly glad to
be in on it. The eats were fine,
but we knew what to expect for
our mothers were on the job. There
were just exactly seventy-five men
and boys at the tables and fifteen
ladies' preparing and serving the
luncheon a total attendance of
ninety. Pretty good sized crowd,
wasn't it? I'll say. But just wait
until Pack Two celebrates it's first
anniversary in November. Well beat
that by twenty. Can't do it? Well,
just wait and see.
What do you think of old timer
Huston? Eleven years old. Knocks
'em cold" Led the crowd again, and
let me tell you he deserves all the
credit. No one handed any bonds
to him. No other fellow sold his
ten and gave the rest to Ralph. He
pulled the thing through himself,
and so we congratulate him most
heartily. He's patriotic chap, but
there's a reason. He was born on
Mem orial Day and lives on Liberty
street. So the first meeting in June
he will be transferred to Troop
Sixteen.
The meeting tonight will be de-
voted to business and tests princi-
pally. We have two new members
to vote on-Shatto and Ha1deman.
Our next hike will be May "a. Full
particulars later.
Yours, till Niagara Falls,

Troop Four Now Boasts
Nine First-Class Scout:

Troop has nine first class scouts
now out of a membership of twenty
two, It's the record for the city SO
our scoutmaster tells us. In honor
of the three newest first class scouts,
George Biles. Theodore Selig, and
Malcolm Graeff, we had celeba-
ton with "eats" provided by Scout
master Hallman. We all enjoyed
the evening immensely and a rising
vote of thanks was given our host.
Our troop district has been some
what changed and we were told of
that change last Monday. It's quite
bit bigger than the old territory
but when any literature or posters
are to be distributed we certainly
will cover it. Won't we fellows?
And say fellows. save food for the
big peace bonfire. We're going to
wake Harrisburg up but we need
that box and barrel you have in your
cellar to do it so BE Prepared"
and gather lot. We1l furnish light
and heat to Harrisburg for one night
gratis.
And now about that scout play
we're going to have. To make 1t a
success we need every scout in Troop
to boost it with all his might.
Talk it up wherever you go and we'll
have a good crowd. The committee
has been hard at work and can
guarantee some good effects in the
way of lighting and scenery.
Mr.. Hallman will be away for two
weeks, but brief meetings will be
held during that time. Don't for
get the big bonfire.

Fellows we have a new visitor In
the Wigwam this week in the per-
son of G.. Park Weaver, the active,
energetic ,and thoroughly efficient
Assistant Scoutmaster of Troop ~.
His contribution should be read and
digested by every Scout in the city.
1 have not appeared conspicuously
in the Wigwam for some time, but
you may rest assured that am busy
in scouting. The overnight hiking
season is in full swing-or will be
very shortly-and when the dusty
road, the camp fire, and the night
woods call, Red Cloud will be lucky
to find time for sitting in an office
writing newspaper dope. There is
not troop in the city with whom I
would not enjoy a hike. That's not
hint for an invitation, fellows
just a statement. I am not going to
mention any names but I know of
one troop that expects to hold a
camp fire council and wiener" roast
in Spooky Hollow soon-and say,
fellows, 1 hope the scoutmaster reads
my little suggestion above. Well see.

lively in amount of sales. A race

OF 1877 bonds for $30,100. Troop II,
OF Penbrook, which is one of the
newest troops, had a total of $780,
$50 thus gaining the much coveted
third place.
Ralph d. Huston, a cub of Pack 2.

ability as a salesman by selling 81
bonds. Ralph gets one of the much
desired German helmets. Roswell
Lyon, of Troop IL, is second with
29 bonds for $4,500, and Richard
Johnston also of Troop IL, third
with % bonds for $4,000. Scout
Johnston also wins helmet because

NO NEED TO BE THIN,
SCRAWNY OR SALLOW

II you are thin and want to be
plump; IL you have wrinkles in your
face that you are not proud of: If
the skin is sallow or subject to
pimples or blackheads, take Mi-o-na

notice the change.
The majority of the thin people
are thin because the stomach does
not perform its duties properly. 1t
Is not secreting sufficient of the
natural digestive juices and in con
sequence does not extract from the
food enough nutritive matter to
nourish every part of the body.
Mi-o-na stomach tablets are in
tended to build up the stomach so
that it will act properly and extract
from the food, the elements necessary
to form flesh.
If you are thin try two weeks treat
ment of Mi-o-na stomach tablets -
they are small, easily swallowed and
are sold on the guarantee of money
back if they do not overcome chronic
indigestion, acute or chronic, stop
stomach disturbance, belching, heart
burn, sour stomach, and any after
dinner distress.
