 Article III, he declared, should be amended to provide changes ill the rep resentation on the leagues executive council, because i've must look to the time when Germany will be entitled to a place in the executive council. Al though he asserted his conviction that Article VIII should fail of it's purpose tc reduce armaments, Senator Lenroot said he was unable to ofer a sugges- tion for a betterment of this article as mo nation would be so insane as to adopt a plan for disarmament as long as any one nation did not.

ADJUSTMENTS
"YON Y0NSON" MAKES
 B|C AUDIENCE ROAR

As a distinct departure from any play thus far presented during their engagement here. the Del $. Lawrence company last night gave the first per- formance of the well-known and de- cidedly amusing Swedish comedy "Yon 1onson." The play was well received by a large audience that completely filled the Elks theater. They appeared to laugh once more with the good na- tured Swede who is continually getting into trouble and out again.
 Del s. Lawrence as "Yon'' has a part that seems to be exactly suited to him. The slow speaking Swede, with his dry humor and swift sallies drew from the first night audience roarS of laughter at his almost every remark. It was certainly all that could be desired on the part of an audience.
 The story of the play is too we'll known to need repetition, but it will be told again each night this week and at three matinees to audiences that will fill the Elks theater. The differ ent players of the Lawrence company are well cast and the stage settings are up to the Lawrence standard. As usual Miss Wilma Steck, the leading woman, was charming and made her cuSloIndFy nlL Wlln the DIE duuleHCe. Pretty Florence Printy was most ap- pealing as the daughter Of Jennings who afterwards learns that she is the sister of the Swede. Howard Nugent, Bert Hadley and Maurice Penfold were in satisfactory roles.
 Kek Schilling furnished quite bit i of genuine enjoyment with his singing. | Mss Steck also contributed to the l musical interpolationS which have 1 proved very popular and no doubt will 1 be continued during the remainder of 1 the engagement.
 "Yon Yonson" will be the bill at the | Elks theater the remainder of the week
 with matinees Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday.
