School Spirit
Do you want the other schools of
Ionia county to say that you lack
school spirit? Then get busy and
show them that Bedding High school is
still on the map.
There are many things that we can
not learn from books. So many of us
make great mistake in thinking that
| if we have perfect lessons we are
we'll on the road to fame and success.
But this is not true. Learn to mingle
with your classmates and to take an
interest in things connected with
school life, that have absolutely no
connection with books and lessons.
Become interested in athletics, in
class parties and in everything that
the school undertakes. This is one
way to show school spirit.
We, the students of Bedding High
school, are making an attempt to give
to the city one of the best Lyceum
courses possible. The entertainers
are furnished by the Redpath Chau-
tauqua, and, therefore we are abso-
solutly sure of the b est entertain
ments. Wilt be a success or a fail
ure? This is up to the students in
dividually. If you want a chance to
show your school spirit be booster
for this Course. Let each and every
one help to make it a success.
Of course we all want our school
to get atheletic honors, but, can this
be accomplished by merely talking
about it? No! We must all help,
Be on h and at every game to encour-
age our team and, without a doubt
we shall carry off the h onors. So
again show your school spirit and
join the A thletic Association by buy
ing a season ticket. v. M.

Literary Society Recognized
The H. S. Literary society was re-
organized recently, and soon will be
started on a year of entertaining
educational work. The Literary So
ciety which is very young organi-
cation, has done a great deal Of good
in the two years that it has been
carried on. Last year the society
purchased a beautiful piano scarf,
.iot only because we needed it but as
a symbol by which the society would
be remembered by future classmen.
Part of Friday afternoon, twice dur
ing a month, has been devoted to the
Literary programs. These were ex-
ceedingly varied and have always
been unusually good. Each program
generally consisted of musical num-
bers, both vocal and instrumental, re-
citations and readings. Once last
year the Sophomores staged a mock
trial. This year Mr.. Hockstad says
we even may venture as far as simple
one-act plays and perhaps farther.
The officers for the year 1920
are: President, Aileen Armstrong
Vice-P President, Earl Cowles; Secre-
tary, Mildred Kramer; Treasurer
Miss Fortune.
News about the Literary society
will be found in the School Notes
very often.

ercise their brain power and endeav-

include all soldiers who have left
France since the first American troops
set foot on European soil, nearly twenty
months ago.
They also include officers and men
returning to training camps or the
sick and wounded who have gone since
the armistice. The large proportion
of officers is due to the fact that a
number were sent back as instructors.

Nation Urged to Select
Anglo-American HOLIDAY
Magma Charta Day, June Is,
Suggested for Interna.
tiOnal Date

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 9.-Patriotic
societies throughout the nation will be
asked to set aside June Is as an in
ternational holiday to commemorate
the closer alliance between the United
States and England, members of the
Baronial Order of Runnymede have de-
cided.
June Is is the anniversary of the
signing of Magma Charta in 1915. Since
the legal institutions of both England
and the United States are based on this
document, it was suggested to the order
by the Rev. DR.. William R. McKim,
rector of st. Johns Church, Washing
ton, that the day would be best suited
for an Anglo-American national holi-
day. The suggestion will be made at
the annual meeting Of the federated
patriotic societies of the United States
next month. The Baronial Order of
.Runnymede is an organization of de-
scendants of the barons who forced
King John to sign Magma Charta at
Runnymede.
Suggestions have also been made by
Charles H. Browning, of Philadelphia,
that an international fund be collected
for the erection of a monument at
Runnymede to commemorate the sign

Rumanians Send Sharp
Demand to Hungarians
Residents of Pennsylvania, Suf-
ferers From War, Ask
About PAYMENT
Neiv York Tribune
.Special Cable Serrice

Spectd! Cdbte Service
PARIS, Jan. S.-Dispasches received
here from private sources show that
I the new governing body in Transyl-
vanla is losing no time in bringing the
hungarian government to book DR..
Erdeley, representative in Budapest of
the Rumanian government of Transyl-
wanna, has handed the Magyar govern
ment a memorial which is practically
tantamount to an ultimatum.
in this memorial the Transylvanians
ask first for statistics showing details
OF the quantities of cereals and number
OF cattle requisitioned by the enemy in
Iransylvania; second, for details of the
quantities of foodstuffs in Hungarian
military depots; third, for particulars
OF the manner in which coal from
Petroshani has been distributed, and,
fourth, for record of payments made
IN respect OF damages caused by the
war in 1916.
The reason for the last mentioned
demand is found in the fact that while
the Hungarians received compensation
Tor damage caused by the war Ruma-
mans were especially excluded from all
benefits.
The memorial demands the payment
of 100,ooo,ooO couronnes (kroner?) to
cover the cost of demobilization in the
twenty-six Rumanian counties of Tran
sylvania.
To these demands the Magyar gov
eminent has replied with flat non
D0ssunlus, on the ground that it has
never yet recognized the separation OF
Transylvania from Hungary. 1t refers
the Transylvanians to the decisions to
be taken at the peace conference, and
states its intention TO deal for the time
being only with urgent questions relat-
ing to revictualment and demobiiza-
ton.

World Must Unite
In Saving Russia,
Says U. S. Attaclle
Economic and Military
Aid,'' Not ''Intervention,'' -
Needed to Restore Order,
Asserts W. C.. HUNTINGTON

Only one way is seen by William
Chapin Huntington, commercial attache
for the United States at Petrograd, in
which order can be brought out of the
chaos which row exists in Russia. That
is by economic and military aid from
outside.
Economic and military aid" is pre-
ferred by Mr.. Huntington to the use
OF the term Intervention" on the
ground that the latter word has been
SO much msused.
Mr. Huntington returned from Petro-
grad in September, having passed
through the two years which, he says,
included "aight months of monarchical
tyranny, eight months of fruitless eff
fort to establish democracy and eight
months of the second and greater tyr
amy of the Bolsheviki" He was the
guest yesterday at a luncheon at the
Lawyers Club.
Business Needs Solid Rule
"The confusion which exists in Rus
sia,' said the commercial attache "is
standpoint the country is hopeless and
will remain so until it is able to set
up an established government Can it
do that without outside aid? In my
opinion, no.
apparently the only outside source
from which that aid can come is a
concert of the powers-a league of ma
tions, if you like. That is whv every
one who is interested in Russia and
who is familiar with conditions there
is waiting anxiously for the outcome
OF the peace conference. Unquestion-
ably what it decides will have the most
direct and vital bearing on the imme-
diate future of Russia
MIR. Huntington told of the difficult
ties under which American business
concerns with large interests in Rus
sia now labor.
"Practically," he said, Everything
they have has been confiscated bv the
regime Industries were placed in charge
of the Soldiers and Workmen's Coun-
ell and promises We're made that in
terest payments would be made to the
owners. Under the Bolsheviki these
promises were abrogated At present
all industry is nationalized, which, it
might be said, is just another word for
confscated.
Industries at Standstill
industrial proprietors who have not
been placed in Jail or separated from
their property altogether are working
IN them as superintendents Some Of
them-men of exceptional brains and
tact probably will save something out
of the wreck. But the rest are simply
deprived of everything they owned
"Of course, the business establish
ment which is able to operate at all is
rare. In most cases, either through
Bolshevik interference or the lack Of
raw material, all industrial plants are
closed down. The people who worked
in them are without employment. The
peasants, having got the land they
craved, are satisfied, and the rest of
the country is at the mercy of the
Bolsheviki. AS long as such condi-
ton prevails it is useless to think
about political or economic regenera-
tion for the country"
