que Sc cmplean muchos castigos

 Permitted to Sign Treaty

Paris. Sept. 10.-The royal govern ment of Montenegro has sent a pro- test to the peace conference because her representatives were not permit ted to sign the Austrian treaty
 All the Allied and associated powers signed the treaty with Austria, even those which did not spill a drop of blOOd' the protest says. The peace conference refused the same right to Montenegro, which from the very beginning of the war voluntarily sided with the Allies, losing 40 per cent. of her soldiers, more than a third of her population and her very liberty, which none heretofore had violated. The royal government of Montenegro protests with the utmost energy against the attitude of the peace conference and asks the gov crnments of the great powers to in tervene to the end that such a fla grant violation of the honor and rights of Montenegro may be termin- ated."
 The MOntenegrin government which makes the foregoing protest is the government which is headed by King

Key West, Fla, Sept. 11.-With daylight today the people of Key West and surrounding territory were able for the first tfGne to survey the destruction wrought by the hurricane that swept through here Tuesday night. Not house in the city had escaped damage and many weIn to- tally wrecked. The ha rbor presented a tangled mass of fishtng vessels and other small craft. but latest reports failed to show deaths other than those on the dredge Grampus.
 Of the 4 men on this craft, 10 were rescued last night, one body was re- covered and three are missing. The British tanker Tonawanda. which had to be scuttled to save the liNer ComaI after that vessel had broken her moorings and gone aground. was re- ported not in a bad position. The steamer St. Gougal also broke loose.
 No vessels had left port early today, nor had any trains come in over the Florida East Coast railway. Tn addi- tion to the temporary stoppage of gas and electricity, the telephone service was suspended and newspapers wero forced to suspend publication

churches on Sunday morning there was an audience that could be numbered with two figures and that number was less than half a hundred. If all the people in Brinkley should decide on a Sunday to go to church there are not enough churches to hold the people. Why shouldn't they try a move like that for one Sunday. Why is it that the public generally will not patronize an institution that they are always glad to name when we speak of the qualities of our town. The writer of this paragraph is ready to confess that he does not at tend Divine services any more than he should, but would be glad to contribute his mite to a movement to re-establish the church going habit.

 reached. Ask the men who were without "Y" service part of the time. They will tell you what it meant. They are the ones who realize best what our army's life would have been without this organization. The Y. M. c. A. as- sumed the prosaic, useful jobs. There was a little picturesque nesss in it's work. There were weeks and months of gruelling !abor-in warehouses, for in stance.
 To dismiss with a thought less, uniformed word the eff forts of an organization which has earnestly tried to do it's best is not fair play. One hears the work of the Y. M. c. A. con- trasted unfavorably with that of the Red Cros. There is a senti- mental reason perhaps, for that. The basic appeal of the Red Cross is that it helps the help less The Y. M. c. A. dealt with whole men. That was the under stood division of work between the two organizations. Soldiers who say they didn't see Y. M. c. A. man or woman from the time they were wounded until they reach home do not realize the reason. And they don't real ize how much they hurt the Y. NJ. C. 4. when they criticise which seems to indicate a lack of human sympathy.
 When a man says the Y. M. c. A. sold dear merchandise he doesn't realize that the canteen system, supplanting the post ex- changes run by the military in other wars, was run by the 'Y", by request, with funds separate from those raised for the regular work of manning huts, trans porting supplies and furnishing athletics, educational work and entertainment. He doesn't re- member, if he ever knew, that supplies were given. away under fire
