Another phase of Americanization
work which has not been SO promf-
nent before the public as others, came
to a conclusion for few months at
least, when the closing exercises of
the night school, which has been
conducted this year solely for the pur-
pose of presenting an opportunity to
the foreigners to secure a better
knowledge of the English language,
were held last night in the grammar
school.
Marvellous progress has been mani
tested on the part of practically all the
night school students and they now
have a firm foundation of English as a
basis on which to learn more concern
ing the customs and mannerisms of
the American people. The average
attendance-for the year has been 125
Nd those who enrolled at the begin
ming of the course were very faithful
in coming to their classes.
This work among the foreigners
who were desirous of gaining more
knowledge, has been under the direc-
tion of r. l.. Predmore, who has
served as principal of the evening
school for the last two years. Assist
ing him are five teachers, S. ]. Henry,
l.. J. Bartlett, Miss I. B. Miller, Miss
Agnes Hardiman and Miss Helena
Wright, each of whom conducted a
class. Two of the classes were held

sounds writing of sentences and
words from copy, reading simple Eng
lish, spelling simple words, writing

Geneva Seat Oh League.
BIZ ssocfoted Press.
PARIS, April 11--Geneva, Switzer-
land, has been chosen as the seat OF
the League of Nations, according to
an announcement made here.
At the meeting of the commission
on a League of Nations, ten sections
of the covenant were considered ana
passed. The Japanese Amendment
was not reached and the actual text
of the section exempting the Monroe
Doctrine from the provision OF the
covenant of the League OF Nations Is
not yet available. American commits
sioners stated, however, that the DOC
trine was definitely named in the pro-
vision guaranteeing that 1t VIII not De
affected by the terms in the covenant
Another meeting will be held tonight,
when it is hoped that the work VIII De
completed.
The adoption of the section exempt
ing the Monroe Doctrine was the only
real exemption made during the meet
ing last night. President wilson OIL
fered the amendment and made plea
for it, saying that he believed the
doctrine was protected under the
terms of the covenant as they read,
but because of the demand for speci-
fic exemption, he felt it imperative
that the amendment should be added.
There was some adverse argument:

| tatives urged that the covenant be
printed in French. but no decision
was reached by the commission on
this point.

received by the commission ana
which asked that the principle OF
suffrage for women be recognized IN
