School Notes

The renewal of the member ship of the Junior Red Cross was sent to the headquarters of the Northwestern Division at Seattle this week. The total member ship for the school is 136. No fee is asked for membership; the goal IS that boys and girls may be taught to think first of others by mutual service, helpful commun- ity work, promotion of health regulations. participation in civic and patriotic movements.
 At the close of each school month pupils are required to bring a statement of their finan- cial savings for that month. Par ents who have children in the lower grades are requested to help the teachers in making this report by sending a written state ment for each child. The instill- ing of habits of thrift and prin- ciples of financial safety into the minds of the children is a national service the importance of which cannot be overestimated. Five states have, by legislative action. made the teaching of thrift in the public schools compulsory.
 Several copies of New Physical Geography by R. s. Tarr, and First Course in Algebra by Hawkes.. Louby & Louton, 1909, 1910 copyright, are needed by the High School. If any one has either or both of these copies and wishes to loan or sell them, please send them to the school. They will be greatly appreciated in either case.
 On account of the unexpectedly large enrolment, there is a short age of seats and desks in every room. New desks and seats have been ordered but only parts of each have arrived. The city council has very generously al- lowed the school to use the new chairs which have recently been put in the town hall. MT. Carl sons manual training class have put together over a dozen chairs, which are now being used to re- lieve the situation.
 The dance which the school gave last Friday was a great suc- cess socially and financially. The total proceeds were s110 with an expense account of $29. 90, leav- ing a fund of $8O.1O. The girls club sold frappe and made $21, while the fortune telling booth netted $2. The success of the affair was due to the splendid CO., operation of the people of Wran- gell and the school. The girls will use the money from the frappe booth for the victrola fund. The remainder will be divided in- to five parts, one part for each room. The three lower rooms will use their part for buying a victrola, while the two High school rooms will use their share for books.
 Mrs. Mason, Mrs. Coulter, and Mrs. Patterson visited the assem- bly, last Friday.

ARTICLE X STILL
STUMBLING BLOCK
Republican and Democratic SEN
atOrs Alike Find il Chief OBJ
stacle in Way of Compromise
Over Treaty
PROGRESS MADE, HOWEVER
Lodge and POmerenc Hold Conference
democrats Reduce TO Definite Form
Proposals for Redrafting Republican
Reservations

Washington, Dec. 31.-Getting down to
cases in their discussion of peace treaty
compromise. republican and democratic
senators found to-day that article ten
still presented the biggest stumbling
block in the way of an agreement.
The senate leader of both political par
ties again were acti1' during the day in
the compromise negotiations, and the sue
cession Of conferences was regarded gen.
orally as indicating that the situation
soon might take more definite form. on
all sides it was said that although no
agreement was get in sight, the sitting
process had cleared away many col
lateral points and had centered atten-
ton on a very few reservations.
1t was the reservation on article ten
as framed by the foreign relations COM
mittee at the last session which Pres
iden Wilson characterized as meaning
a rejection of the treaty. Determined to
secure some notifications democratic
senators have presented a number of
suggestions but all of them so far have
been regarded on the republican side
as going too far. The republicans in
turn, have suggested changes which
the democrats regard as notifications
of language only.
Three conferences attracted partic-
ular attention among the many which
were held to-day. Senator Lodge of
Massachusetts. republican leader, went
over compromise suggestions with
Senator Pemerene of Ohio, a democratic
member of the foreign relations COM
mitttee. Later Secretary Tumulty went
to the capitol and, speaking for the
President discussed the situation with
Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska, the
acting leader of the democrats. To-
night Mr.. Hitchcock called into con-
sultation all of the democratic MEM
bers of the committee who are in
town. Details of none of these meet
ings were revealed but it was under
stood that in all of them specific res
ervation changes were discussed. and
that in each case article ten figured
prominently.
AS a committee members who worked
for unreserved ratifics ion and later voted
for acceptance of the 'epublcan reserva-
ticn program, Stnator 'omerene is under
stood to have given SeuGtor Lodge COM
parative estimate of compromise senti-
ment among the democrats, and to have
gone into details in outlining how far he
thought the administration senators would
go in regard to article ten.
At the meeting tonight of the foreign
relations committee democrats are under
stood to have taken steps to reduce to a
definite form democratic proposals for re-
drafting the republican reservations. The
subject was considered in the light of
the information obtained during the day
by Senators Hitchcock and Pomerene
with a view to framing program be-
hind which the administration forces
could unite.

COOLIDGE NOT HANKERING
FOR VICE-PRESIDENCY
His Name as Candidate at
South Dakota Primary Elections

Boston. Dec. 31.-Letters in which Gov.
ernor Coolidge withdraws his name as a
candidate for the republican nomination
as Vice-preSident at the March primary
elections in South Dakota We're made pub
lie at the State House to-day. The first
letter was sent to Secretary of State
Burkhard of South Dakota on December
10 after Governor Coolidge had been no.
tilted that the republican State convention
in South Dakota has proposed his name
for vice-president. 1t said in part:
1T was entirely unexpected by me that
my name should have been presented to
your convention. 1t Is not, how
ever, my desire to appear as candi-
date for the office of president Of
the United States. ! shall not, therefore,
make the declaration which your laws
require from candidate. This in no
way detracts from my deep appreciation
of the honor that has beer given me or
from my pleasure at haviaH such an ex-
preston of confidence from the people
of South Dakota"
The second letter. written yesterday to
telegram to the same effect, said that
Governor Coolidge wished to withdraw his
name from the. ballot. The letter con-
cluded:
"As heretofore explained, l am deeply
appreciatve Of the very great honor that
my fellow Americans have extended to
me in your state by their action. but
do not wish to have my name appear on
your ballot as a candidate for this Of
fee"
