When Nelson Quit Swearing.

When Senator Nelson was governor
of Minnesota one Of his cronies was
an Episcopal minister, Dr.. Wilcox.
The Old Viking was in the habit of
"cussing" whenever he felt like it and
the presence Of the churchman did not
deter him in the least. DR.. Wilcox
talked to Governor Nelson frequently
about the swearing habit and tried to
break him of it, but without success
One day they were sitting in the gov
errors office and when something in
the conversation aroused Governor
Nelson he spoke his mind freely and
interspersed his discourse literally
with explosives.
"Why in the don't you cut
that QUIZ" demanded DR.. Wilcox.
Governor Nelson was amazed and
finally said: "Well, if my cussing
sounds as bad as yours, l will" And
he did.

Part of Kellogg's Statement.

~o>sS~---O.---0OO
Following are some Of the points
from Senator Kellogg's statement to
press representatives in St. Paul anent
the failure to ratify the treaty:
II regret exceedingly that the
treaty was not ratified with reserva-
tions. Many of the republicans worked
earnestly from the start to accomplish
this object. These reservations, which
were adopted by large majority Of
the senate, were prepared, not by
members of the foreign relations COM
mittee, but by friends of the treaty,
and were fair, reasonable, protected
American rights and American inter-
ests, and did not destroy the treaty
nor the league of nations.
For months the friends of the
treaty on the republican side advised
the president and the democratic
leaders that reservations, in substance
like those passed, would have to be
adopted, not only to ratify the treaty
but to make it safe and satisfactory
to the American people. But they
have all insisted, as the president has
that the treaty must be taken without
the dotting of an s. or the crossing
of t.
"The republican friends Of the treaty
stood day after day and voted against
every single amendment to this treaty

The sophomore English class is

Ruskin, picking out topic sentences
and other important things and dis
cussing the subject. By The many diff
ferent answers that are given to Miss
Allen one would think the book con-
tanned nothing but topic sentences
Nevertheless, the decision is a lively
one before the decision comes to an
end.
Friday morning a good many high
school girls were 1imping to and from
classes. When they were asked what
was the matter with them they said
they had been practicing basketball
and, as Thursday night was about che
first time they had practiced this year,
they were very stiff.
Thursday afternoon the school was
dismissed at o'clock so that those
who wished to see Daddy Long Legs"
might go to the theater. The girls
basketball coach, Miss Allen, did not
expect to have anyone at practice on
account of the show, but there were
enough out for three or four teams.

erything was in turmoil at the last
minute. If you want work all you
have to do is be senior.
The sophomore English class was
questioned about events Of the last
few years by Miss Allen the other day,
and I guess she came to the conclusion
that newspapers are scarce in some
homes.

which would necessitate sending IT
back to Germany, and only voted for
reservations which would not require
it to be sent back to Germany, and
which would not change the treaty as
between other nations, but would leave
it as it is, simply reserving certain
rights to the American people.
.'In the main, these reservations are

reservations and believed in them and

Senator Nelson and have from
the beginning, with other republicans,
done all we could to insure the prompt
ratification of the treaty Of peace and
the league of nations, with protection
to the interests of the United States,
AS matter of fact the republicans
Americanized the treaty and the demo
Gratis killed it. We believe that the
greatest good can come to this people,
and that we can reach our highest
destiny, through a spirit of American
nationalism. We must realize that we
are differently situated from any Of
the nations of Europe. Many of them
are of different races existing under
different commercial and social condi-
lions, and, what would protect them
would not protect us. All of the val
liable obligations necessary to an eff
fective league of nations were pre-
served. The agreement for arbitra-
ton, the obligation not to go to war
without first having submitted the
question to arbitration or to Che discus
sion of the council and the league, and
all the machinery for the adjustment,

remain. Does any man propose that

in defense of any nation on the face of
the earth at any time without the vote
of the peoples representatives in corr
gress? Does any man propose d sub
nit our domestic questions to the arbi-
tration of league made up Of foreign
interests? Do we propose to open the
doorways Of immigration to the flood
of Objectionable elements Of Europe?
Do we propose to allow any interna-
tional convention to reduce American
labor to the level Of European labor,
or to submit such questions to a med
dlesome tribunal of socialists or near
socialists? Does any man propose
that our immigration laws and our
domestic institutions shall become sub

tons in European tribunals? Who is
willing to do this? I, for one, am not
