THE LEAGUE Of
NATIONS WILL:
START UP SOON
Will Exist on Ratification Of
Three Nations
NOT TO AWAIT U. S. SENATE
But America Cannot Participate in
First Work of League or
Commissions
NOT TO AWAIT U. S. SENATE

Washington, Oct. 16-While no
official declaration can be made in ad
vance of the action of the Senate on
the treaty of Versailles, it was learn
ed unofficially today that plans were
being laid for bringing the League Of
Nations into existence almost immed-
lately on the publication in Paris of
the ratification of the treaty by Great
Britain, France, Italy and Germany,
which will put it into force.
Although the United States cannot
participate in the initial stages of the
Leagues work, it is understood that
the decision has been reached to have
President Wilson issue call for the
first meeting of the Council Of the
League within the fifteen-day period
provided in the treaty for the appoint
ment by the Council of three mem
bers of the commission which is to
determine the boundary of the Sarre
Basin.
Article 8 of the covenant provides
the decisions of the Council "shall re-
quire the agreement of all Of the
members of the League represented
at the meeting and it is held here
that this does not specifically require
the attendance of an American men,
Der to legalize such decisions.
No fewer than fifteen commissions
created by the Peace Treaty appear
to require American participation,
and certain plebiscites confirming
titles to various disputed territories
also are to be conducted under inter
national control The present view
of the officials here, however, Is that
of Great Britain,
France, Italy and possibly Japan.
whose ratification of the treaty is ex-
pected daily, will act in these matters
without any challenge of the legality
OF the proceedings on account of the
absence of the American representa-
tives.
Plans for the launching of the
League we're discussed by Colonel E.
NJ. House during his recent stay in
and he is understood to
have pursued the work as far as he
felt warranted in advance of the ac-
ton of the Senate. 1t also is under
stood that quarters for the League
secretariat in Geneva have been ar
ranged for, and while in London Col
onel House is believed to have franz
ed with the representatives Of other
nations a tentative program for the
first meeting of the League,
If Colonel Houses health permits
he is expected in Washington per
haps next week, and it will then be in
order to frame the call for the first
meeting of the Council of the League.
which the Presidents physicians are
expected to permit him to sign.

AUDIENCE MYsTlFIED
Unable to Distinguish Between Sing

Unable to Distinguish Between Sing
inu Voice and Edison Recreation
No more enjoyable musical enter
tainment has been given in Benning-
ton in months than the concert at
High School hall Thursday evening
by Miss Marie Morrissey, contralto,
assisted by William Reddick, pianist.
The entertainment was rendered
the music-loving people by George A.
Parker, distributor of the Edison phon-
ograph and re.creations. The concert
was not highly appreciated by the
audience that completely filled the
hall but it proved the contention of
the Edison company that it was inn
possible to distinguish between the
singing voice and the recreation on
the phonograph. During one of Miss
Morrisey's selections, in which she
accompanied the recreation of her
voice, the hall was darkened and the
soloist left the stage. Members of the
audience admitted that they were un-
able to determine at what point in the
selection the singer ceased.
Miss Morrisey not only has an ex-
ceptionally beautiful contralto voice
but she possesses a pleasing person
ality which won her audience the in
slant she appeared upon the stage
The program follows;

Be Prepared
For influenza
Cut This Out

Many medical men say we Will pl
ably have another epidemic this IAN
Let us all hope and pray we VIII NOT.
But at the same time let us be wen
prepared.
The flu as it is called, usually starts
with cold and tightness in the chest.
If you ever suspect there is
chance that you may be getting in
fluenza take a good dose of laxative
tea, such as DR., Carter's K & Tea
or Celery King and send for your ply
sician. While you are waiting for the
doctor rub Begy's Mustarine on throat
and chest.
Rub it on freely and never mind If
1t does feel good and hot it cannot
blister even the tenderest skin.
But don't stop at throat and chest;
get some one to rub this enemy of in
flammation over your entire back and
especially between the shoulder blades.
This is one of the NOSE sensible
precautions you can take against pneu-
monia which often quickly follows the
flu and is just what the doctor tries
herd to sidetrack.
You can get Begy's Mustartine for 80
and so cents in yellow boxes all ready
for use at any drug store.
Remember it is made of real yellow
mustard Use it for sore throat, coughs
chest colds. pleurisy bronchitis, lum-
bago and all aches and pains.
