There is lamentable lack of concert.
The city seems to have divided into mum

THE FLU" MASK

That influenza is again on the wane is
another demonstration of the efficiency
OF the "flu mask" This is the second time
that its value has been demonstrated in
Logan; Provo, Utah County and other
places have had the same experience and
Notwithstanding all adverse criticism it
would appear that it is real preventa-
tive. But there is one thing sure that if
the best results are to be obtained it must
be worn and properly cleansed and steril-
lied, Incident to the rehabilitation
there is too much laxity in the wearing of
the mask. 1t is not an uncommon thing
to see many people at times without a
masey, and 1T would appear that if the
mask is to worn it should be worn by all.
1t is hard to have rule that does not
apply to all and make it effective. 1t is
therefore to be hoped that the mask will
be made strictly compulsory.

THE TIGER SPEAKS

The French call their Prime Minister,
Georges Clemenceau, "The Tiger" and
they are right. He is like tiger defend
ing France He thus defined the nations
position the other day in the Chamber or
Deputies: France was the country near
est Germany; she suffered ana
,odpnt Our men were mown down. Our
towns and villages were destroyed" He
thus described foreign assistance: "Anl-
erica was far away and took her time to
come to the war England came at once"
Took her time! How that cuts! The tig-
err can crack singing whip even while
expressing gratitude for our eleventh.
hour aid. Yet what is the implication?
Is Americas voice in the Peace Confer
ence to be measured by the length of time
she has been in the war? Let this be con-
sidered by those who fancy that our voice
will be preponderant.
The Tiger is an old fashioned radical
He looks askance at theory versus prac-
tice. Now, there has been an old system
on alliances called the balance of power"
AS Clemenceau admitted: 'It seems to
be condemned nowadays But ii such
balance had preceded the war, if England
the United States, France and Italy had
agreed that whoever attacked one of
them attacked the whole world, the war
would not have occurred. This system
of alliances which do not renounce will
be my guiding thought at the Peace Con-
ference if your confidence sends nae

The Chambers confidence was vetoed
$50 to 134. This victory puts C1emen-
ceau, the chief representative of France,
in the same commanding position with
regard to his country at the Peace Con-
ference as that held by Lloyd George
since his recent electoral victory made
him England's chief representative.

OUR WAsTEFUL HOUSEKEEPING

Our municipal housekeeping is getting
sadly out of tune The chimney, the
walks are covered with ice, and the child
rem are dirty. 1t begins to appear as if
the lady of the house has developed a era

huff, the garbage man is peevish, the
janitor is dissatisfied, and the whole
institution is tangled. The front room is
dusty, the windows are smeared, and the
minister hurries past without looking up.
What, to employ barbarism, is eating
Chicago?
There is dissatisfaction about the street
car service and on frosty mornings the
citizen no longer enhales the frosted,
whitened breath of winter, but puffs
forth the coal smoke he inhaled on the day

THE MONORE DOCTRINE IN THE
PEACE TREATY II


! In the peace conference the United
States probably in spite of the best eff
orts of the senate to protect it will pledge
itself in subscription to many agreements
intended to preserve the European eq
ulibrium. Some of them may be wise ag-
reements. Some of them may be unwise.
We hope to avoid the unwise but what
ever happens one thing is certain. We
have our entanglements.
Probaly we cannot avoid all of them If
an assassination in Sarajevo, Bosnia, in
the Balkans, at time when not even
British statesmen could see the interest of
the British empire in an issue of eastern
European politics, can result in the send
ing OF 100000 American troops abroad,
in an American army OF occupation on the
bank OF the Rhine, an American force in
Siberia and one in northern Russia, then
we are entangled, really entangled.
If we have to be projected into Europe
it does not follow that Europe has to be
projected as valid an American doctrine
now as it ever was.
We can ask the peace conference to in
clude in the peace treaty formal recogni
ron of the Monroe doctrine pledging the
powers of Europe to keep themselves and
each other out of the North and South
Americas.
1t is valid declaration because it is SUI
equitable declaration. The world can
" suffer if the western hemisphere is
forced into contact with European poll
tics. That is the inheritance of Europe.
II is not the inheritance Of, this hemisp
here. The United States in barring from
North and South America the play of Eu
ropean intrigue ambition policy, and nat
lonalistic aspiration is serving the best
interests not only oNNorth and South
America but of the world.
The United States is not masterful
overload. 1t is rational protector of the
best interests OF humanity in the two Am
el1cas and the assertion of its protector
ate serves these interests.
This protection, as expressed in the
Monore doctrine, which was also the doc
tflne OF the English statesman Charming
ought to be recognized by the agree
ments to which the United States is asked
to subscribe.
we nave asked little OF Europe except
for our own sake, to help solve her trou-
bles in the fashion that would be safest
for us. We can ask now that our own
problems be solved in the fashion which
will be safest for us.
lnasmpch as the United States contem-
Plates no arbitrary aggression against
the peace of the two Americas-treats
even the provocative Mexico with an ami
ability which causes more provocation-
it can be known and is known that we do
not seek through the Monroe doctrine to
obliterate other nationaities We seek,
In our own interests to protect them and
to keep them isolated from foreign influ-
ences which would make trouble. We in
sist that this hemisphere should have its
nance to remain at peace and we insist
that Europe by declaration recognize our
right to keep it at peace.
An assertion of the Monroe doctrine
ought to be in the peace treaty. 1t will

Prof. Shaw told OF the formation
of volunteer boys military corps

into the curriculum of the school
after the boys themselves had circu-
