SCRAP OF PAPER" COMES UP

PARIS. Jan. 4.-The famous treaty which Germany designated as a scrap of paper will come up for early con- sideration before the peace congress. This is the treaty made in 1880, when the great powers of Europe recognized Belgium as being separate from Hol- land. and guaranteed the neutrality of Belgium.
 It was the disregard of this neu- trality and the invasion of Belgium by the German troops which brought Great Britain into the war.
 The Belgian parliament recently adopted unanimously a resolution ask ing for the establishment of the inde- pendent sovereignty of Belgium, and the abandonment of the guarantee of neutrality.
 The tragic and glorious hours which Belgium has experienced give 1t the right to free itself from the ties which, in the past limited it's sovereignty and enervated it's international action. Belgium will thus pass to the rank of the great powers. which are mistresses of their destinies'

 Judge Hollister, in a lengthy opinion, not only dismissed the injunction suit bpt stated that it was his opinion that the chief point made by the plaintiff, Albert G. Erkenbrecher, a real estate man, that the proposed amendment should have received two thirds of the total membership of both houses of congress, instead of two thirds of the members voting. was not good logic.

FOR COUNTY

At the County Fair theer was an ex-
hibition of the plans for the Installing
of branch Libraries all over the county,
c%entering in the public library Mt
Bookings. This Is a scheme that is
fostered by the State Library Associa-
ton and by the national organization.
1t is something that can be accom-.
plished with very little effort on the
part of the communities and it would
appear that with these added privileges
the life on the farm would prove even
more attractive than it is now. The
public librarian of Brookings is very
much interester in trying out the plan
and hopes that the countr ypeople
will take advantage of the PROPOSE
ton. She will gladly explain the mat
ter to any who are interested, and as
the plan provides for covering the
whole county it would seem that the
appeal would be to all Of our citizens.
1t is very probable that in the county
the size of Brookings that the various
towns would be made centers and thus
more easily serve the needs of the
communities surrounding them.

COUNTY SCHOOLS SCORE

The educational exhibit shown at
Huron, at the State Fair, from Brook
ings county received the second premi-
UNI for county exhibit. This can be
considered a fine endorsement Of Mrs.
Trooien, our county superintendent,
and is likewise proof of the fact that
our schools are of the very best. For
three years, under the direction of
H. L. Blakely. the county took first
at the State Fair and now when Mrs.
Trooien makes her first exhibit at the
fair the county only drops one place
among the counties of the state. This
shows the excellence of our teachers
and pupils as nothing else could do.
We can well be proud of a county that
a do this, and live in great hopes
that after Mrs. Trooien has served a
full year that Brookings county will
once more be the leading one of the
state at the educational exhibit at
Huron. Hamlin county was awarded
first premium and Deuel. county third,
thus showing that the eastern border
of the state holds exclusively the frst
rank.

PERSHING IN NEW YORK

The commanding general of the
great American army that brought
peace to the world by their over
whelming numbers and the possibili-
ties that their arrival In Europe pre-
saged, is once nor at home III his
native country. General John ].
Pershing arrived in New York City
on Monday and was received by such
cheering crowds as is seldom seen
anywhere In this country on any occa-
sion. The transport Leviathan steam
ed into the harbor bearing the man
who slipped away from our shores
twenty seven months. ago and accom-
plished in another continent all that
was expected of him and the men
whom he commanded. In all the well
come that was accorded him he per-
sisted in saying that he accepted these
tributes as the expression of the Amer
lean people for the army which he
commanded and not for himself alone.
Secretary Of War Baker met him at
the landing pier and presented him
WIN tue cOHuHllsSlOH 10 the rank OF
general recently conferred on him by
Congress. He is the fourth man in
the history of the country to hold this
rank, his predecessors in the honor
being those great commanders of the
Civil war, Grant, Sherman, and Sheri-
dan. That the common people of the
country entered into the ~recention
OF the general was evident from the
fact that the shores OF the bay, the
islands and the river, as the ship ap-
preached the landing, were lined with
people who were content to get even
a sight Of the ship which bore the
great commander to his home again.
A big demonstration was held IL the
city and numerous addresses of well
come were made to assure him that
every section of the country was rep
resented at his homecoming. Gen.
eral Pershing will proceed to Wash
ington at once and prepare himself
to present in person to the command
er-in-chief Of our armies, President
Wilson, a report Of the conduct of
the trust placed In him when he was
given the supreme American COM
mand.
