pecially true OF cotton seed in many

to hold on to the supply so that there
will be no great shortage in tie spring.
Farmers who have q surplus Of good

GYRSY SMITH BREACHES
AT STATE UNIVERSITY

The University 2. M. c. A. held
series Of religious meetings last week
conducted by the Rev. Gypsy Smith,
Jr., the noted evangelist. The meet
ings began Wednesday and continued
through Sunday. Mr.. Smiths dig
nified manner of delivering sincere
message made a profound impression
on the students who heard nm.
Among the evils which he especially
scored were nominal christianity ana
college skepticism. The effectiveness
of his lectures was shown in the fat
tering size of his audience each nlsft.
Not only most of the student body but
also many visitos from the city helped
fill the auditorium at each lecture.
A plan providing that all athletic
matters shall be in the hands of an
athletic board composed of two faculty
members, two members from the stu
dent body, and two members from the
alumni association. The new body
will differ materially from the pres
ent advisory board in that It's person.
mel will be made up of especially elect
ed representatives instead Of ex Off
clio members. The plan s1so included
the establishment of a f=cHst; uan-
aser of athletics to be regular mem
Der of the university faculty and the

Tartment of the college.

day afternoon granted the petition OF

Worn, weary and footsore, the men

SERIOUS TIMES IN BOSTON
Governor Has Taken Charge of Situa-
ton Arising From Strike Of
Police Force.

Boston.-A fight to the finish be-
tween the constituted authorities of
state and city and the labor unions
was indicated by developments in the
policemen's strike. While Gov. Cool
idge was exercising his authority as
commander-in-chief of the state forces
to take complete command of the
measures for protection of the city,
Mayor Peters was making it plain to
labor leaders who visited the city hall
that the policemens union would not
be recognized.
The labor men were firm in their
insistence that the police be permitted
to affiliate with the American Fede-
ration Of Labor, and offered to guar
antee that the police never would be
called out on sympathetic strike.
= The possibility of a strike of car
men, telephone and electrical workers
and industrial employees was serious.

OF THE TREATY.
THE ANSWER WILL BE FIRM
Note From Germany Considered Evas
i've, and 1t May BE Decided to
Enter Farther Into That
Country.

Paris-The supreme council Of the
peace conference informed Roumania
she must sign the peace treaty with
Austria without reservation or abstain
altogether from signing.
The Roumanian peace delegation has
not yet reached a decision in the mat
ter.
The Roumanian delegation has sent
note to the peace conference declar
ing that its intention was to sign the
Austrian treaty with reservations. The
supreme council took the Roumanian
note under consideration. 1t appears
unlikely such a signature will be per
mitted
Premier Clemenceau presided at the
council meeting, which also discussed
the German reply to the allied demand
for suppression of article 81 of the
German constitution, providing for
Austrian representation in the German
parliament. The discussion of this
subject was not completed.
While the council probably will
spend several days on the reply to the
German note before completing it. it
is considered certain that the answer
will be extremely firm in tone, taking
the position that Germany is violating
the treaty before it becomes effective.
thereby rendering it impossible for the
allies to ratify it.
Considerable differences of opinion
are known to have existed among the
members of the supreme council re-
garding the action to be taken con.
corning the German note, some mem
bers favoring the ignoring by the allied
communication on the ground that the
reply was evasive, and proceeding
further into Germany should the Ger,
mans fail to indicate a willingness to
alter their constitution.
