IN MEMORIUM.

In loving memory of our beloved
daughter and son-in-law, Willie Bats
and Pemla Bats who departed this
life one year ago, November 5, 1918.
The month of November again is
here,
To us the saddest of the year; o
Because it took from us away
Our dearest ones, one year ago today.
God called them home, it was His
will,
But in our hearts they linger still;
For us they always did their best
May God grant them eternal rest.
Sadly missed by father,
HARRY SCOTT and FAMILY.

a wonderful concert Thursday even

Summer" was much enjoyed. The
closing play of the Pentinent's Re
turn brought tears to our eyes and
one girl in the crowd resolved to go
back home. The Tramp played her
part exceptionally we'll; also the real
daughter. The Pantomine "Old Black
Joe" was we'll played. The Tableau
showing the Peace Angel was very
beautiful. The lady played that part

Allies Jointly to
Operate the Siberian
R. RS, Says Jap Diplomat

Toxic, May S0.-T. Matsudaira,
chief of the japanese political de-
partment at Vladivostok, who has
returned to consult with his home
government, is quoted by the Asahi
as asserting that the cost of opera
ton of the Siberian railway is to be
borne equally by the Allies, not by
the United States alone.
The railway, he said, forms the
backbone of Siberia and it's destruc-
ton would mean the starvation of
the troops stationed at Omsk, Irkutsk
and other places and also of the
Russian population throughout ST.
beria- British troops, about a bat
talon strong, and the French troops,
are stationed at Omsk to guard the
Omsk government, he said, and they
will not withdraw from that place
for some time.
Various reports are in circula ton
regarding the alleged activities or
ambition of American capitalists in
Siberia, but nothing exists that
should give concern to the japanese" "
declared Mr. Matsudaira.

Training For Printers

Washington, May 30.-There is a
demand for printers and machine
operators in many publishing houses
and newspaper offices. FTfty-two
disabled soldiers are at present TAX
ing these courses under the direc-
ton of the Federal Board for Voca-
tional Education. six of them are
studying printing, eleven are taking
typesetting, fifteen are preparing for
linotype operators and eighteen for
monotype operators, and two are
studying lithography. The board
trains men for linotype operators
who have previously been in the
printing trade. A few are taking
this course who have had no pre-
vious experience. but they are re-
quired to take thoroughgoing pre-
liminary training in the printing
trade.
A former plumber received a gun
shot wound in the right arm, and
also lost his left eye in the Argonne
Forest. His former trade was too
hard for him, so he is preparing to
be a linotye operator.

wound, lost a piece of his skull

URGING
 SENATE ID FIX
 LEAGUE FAULTS

WASHINGTON, D. C., July 2s.- In a letter addressed to Senator Frederick Hale, Republican, of Maine, Charles E. Hughes, former Republican candidate for the presi- dency, suggests a number of res ervations to the League of Nations covenant which, in his opinion, should be adopted by the senate before the covenant is finally dis posed of. He said that he felt that at least two-thirds of the members would refuse to ratify the treaty with the covenant remaining as 1t now stands.
 Hughes suggests, among other changes, that any nation becoming member of the league should be permitted to withdraw on two years notice. He suggests also that inn migration questions be settled by domestic jurisdiction and that Am erica refuse to assume an interna- tional obligation to send her forces overseas unless it be with the con sent of Congress.
 The letter is emphatic regarding the preservation of the Monroe Doc urine.

FAT FRISCO FIGHTER
 CLAIMS RIGHT TO
 MATCH WITH CHAMP

SAN FRANCISCO.-Willie Nee han, a heavyweight boxer of this city, says he is entitled to a match with Jack Dempsey, the new world champion. Friends of Meehan, as well as local followers of boxing, believe there is merit to his demand for a meeting with the title-holder, although they are not predicting much for Willie in the light of what Dempsey did to Willard at Toledo.
 Meehan's claim is based on the fact that he holds a four-round de- cision over Dempsey. This bout was fought in San Francisco last year at one of the war benefits held here. All the sport writers con- firmed the decision of the referee in their accounts of the bout.
 Sporting men are of the opinion that, technically, Dempsey's record will not be clear until he has de- feated Meehan, but there are few who will concede Meehan a chance to win in a twelve or twenty-round fight.

WASHINGTON, D. C., July 2S.- Senator Miles Poindexter, Republi- can. of Washington, introduced resolution in the senate this morn ing, providing for an investigation of the recent advances in the price of gasoline and other oil products in this country.
 In introducing his resolution, Sen ator Poindexter assured his col leagues that the present prices are wholly unwarranted by conditions, and it is his belief that an investiga- tion will show that American oilmen have been guilty of price manipu- laticn.
 The oil companies, he said. fix prices at will, and he is sure the recent advances were not justified.

 IMPORTANT FIGHT

VIENNA, July 2s. - The Hun garian soviet troops, which forced the Rumanian army from important positions along the River Theiss, in South Central Hungary, last week, are reported to have suffered severe reverses during the past two days.
 Advices received in this city this morning state that the Hungarians were thrown back across the liver in great disorder, the Rumanians recovering much of the material which they lost during the Hungari- an advance.
