WESLEYAN COLLEGE TO
ERECT A MEMORIAL
Arch to Be Erected to Memory of Dead
Heroes of School at the Ath-
letic Field Entrance.

Summer improvements of the
grounds around Wesleyan college in
Helena costing $4,000 are planned. A
memorial arch at the entrance to the
athletic field costing approximately
$4,000 is one of the things that it is
hoped will be erected in time to greet
the returning students next fall. Side
walks and improvements on the camp
us costing $1,000 completes the pro-
gram as far as the college is con-
cerned.
The memorial arch idea is one that
has been carried out in many of the
colleges throughout the country where
members of the student body went in
to the service and gave their lives
that their alma mater might never
know the heel of the Hun. Donations
from the alumni of these other insti-
buttons of the United States have
come freely and literally when the
purpose of the active college body was
announced.
And it is with this record of edu-
cational institutions in view that Wes-
leyan hopes to raise the money for
their memormial to the boys who
went away and never came back. The
money is to be raised in two or three
large subscriptions from wealthy per-
sons who are interested in the well
fare of the college. The names of the
heroes are to be placed on the arch on
a bronze tablet.
Fifty tablets of bronze, bearing the
names of persons who donated to the
furnishing of dormitories, are on the
doors of the rooms that the donators
furnished. These are evidences OF
the interest which the graduates OF
the institution have in their college
and it is these that make President
Donaldson feel confident that the
amount needed will be realized.
improvements by the city which
will benefit the college are practical.
ly assured also. An improvement dis
trict on Eleventh avenue has been pc.
titioned for and the petition present.
ed to the city council. AS the col.
lege owns about 60 per cent of the
property, the few protests which have
been received will not have a very
great bearing upon the situation.

is In RACE
State Superintendent Public In
struction Files for Second
Term-Republican Ticket
PUT MONT. SCHOOLS FIRST
Pledges Herself for Equality, Service
and Quality in Instruction and
to Keep Educational Affairs
Out of Politics.

Miss May Trumper, state superin-
tendent of public instruction, has fill
ed her declaration of intention to run
for the republican nomination for the
same office for her second term. Gull
mination Of four years. efforts in bet
tering educational conditions in every
part of the state, in keeping up and
introducing the most advanced lines
of work for rural and urban schools
and in raising the standard of teach
ing instruction has resulted in the
finding of Leonard P. Ayers, educa-
tor of national prominence, in giving
Montana's public school system the
first place in the United States.
Miss Trumper has strived success
fully not only in bringing about great
er efforts in rural schools through her
own efforts but has also for the first
time brought the entire corps of coun-
ty superintendent Of the state into
a splendid cooperative organization,
with the same high ideals and effort
which has made Miss Trumper's first
term in the office a huge success.
In every detail of educational en-
deavor, Montana's schools have adj
vanced and the progress made is large
ly due to the foresight, ability and eff
ficiency of Miss Trumper and her
ability to secure harmony, efficiency
and able assistants in every one Of the
many lines of effort in which the Of
flee is engaged.
The results Of a sound basic train
ing so far in Miss Trumper's career,
which brought her into prominence as
an educator of exceptional ability long
before her advent into the state de-
partment.
While she has always been a re-
publican, Miss Trumper places her
work and getting results ahead of
politics.

Gloried i'm German Cruelties.

Under another article of the i'm
parchment proceedings, Judge" Crum
was found to have gloated over the
"reports of every allied disaster both
before and after the declaration of
al by the United States, and ex-
pressed to the community in which
'he lived forsyth, Mont.) his great
satisfaction in reading the reports of
any German success; that the said
Crum looked upon the barbarous con-
ceptions and inventions of the Ger
mans used in carrying on their pros
ecution of the war, such as destruct-
i've gases and liquid fire, as worthy
achievements and approved the vio-
lation by the Germans of the rules
adopted for civilized warfare between
nations of the world and approved all
the inhuman methods, processes and
practices utilized by the Germans in
carrying on the war;"
"Guilty" Was the Verdict.
When the question was quito the
senate of the state of Montana, sit
ting as a trial court in the Crum case,
35 being present, every senator arose
and voted "guilty."
Judge" Crum will be bitterly or
posed by the American Legion as well
by the LANCER forces, who see in
his election if it should be possible,
the placing Of a dangerous radical in
the legislature of North Dakota to
assist the Townley-Frazier crowd in
carrying out their complete socialist
ic program, including the public own
ership of all land.
