Mr. Frog reached home just as
the sun peeped over the hills. He
slipped hastily out of the water,
sprang up the bank of the creek,
and in three jumps landed on the
roof of his tailor's shop. There he
squatted, while his queer, bulging
eyes scanned the sky in every di-
rection. He was watching for Mr..
Grow, and all but bursting with the
news that he had for the gid gem

@. What are the specific obliga-
tions relating to war whichc we as
sumo in subscribing to the cove
nant?
A. They are three in number:
% Not to go to war until three
months after a report by the
council or ans award by arbi-
traitors.
~ Not to go to war at all with
nation that has complied with
the recommendation con-
tanned in a report unanimous
ly agreed to by the council.
go To apply the economic boy
colt against a nation which has
resorted to war in violation of
the foregoing obligations.
O. Suppose, now, the council has
made a unanimous report making
recommendation for the settle
ment of a dispute to which we are
a party, and that we are unwilling
to comply with the recommenda
require the league to take any ac-
ton against us?
A. 1t does not.
@. If the other party to the dis
pute also refuses to comply with
the recommendations, what hap
pens?
A. War is permitted without in
reference by the league.
G. If either party complies with
the recommendations, what is the
effect?
a. The other party cannot go
to war without incurring the pen
atty of having the economic boy
colt put into force against it by
he league.

ftion as we should be in if we felt
compelled to refuse to accept the
report of the international COM
mission under which the. twenty
arbitration treaties to which we
have subscribed?
"A. Almost. The only difference
| is this: In case of our rejecting
the recommendation of a report
under existing treaties we have on
~ our opponent to deal with; but
in case we reject the unanimous
recommendation of the council,
and our opponent complies with
them, we cannot go to war with
out having the whole league ar
rayed against us in commercial
boycott.
@. Can the council make a rec
omendation by a majority vote?
A. 1t cannot. Unanimity is re-
quired.
@. What is the basis for the
common assertion that the league
is a super-state?
= A. The belief that the council
and assembly have power to bind
the member states to act in ac-
cordance with their decisions.
Q. Is this true?
A. 1t is not. AS we have seen,
the council and assembly have
power only to advise, propose, or
recommend. There is no obliga-
ton to comply with the advice,
proposal, on recommendation, and
no penalty attaches to refusal to
comply.

always. and in a fiji of despondency one day he declares:
 I've seen that fellow Bill Hart ride twelve thousand miles if I've seen him ride one"
 Anyway back to the play: The Prince Chap" as told by Edward Peple, has to do with poor young artist. William Peyton, who goes to London to seek his fortune, leaving behind him a fiancee who promises to wait for him until his statues bring him money enough to support her. In London the sculptor is made guardian to a 4-year- old child. The fiancee learns of the child and believes the innuendoes thrust at her by her aunt And so she breaks off the engagement because the sculptor refuses to get rid of the child
 And so the artists heart is broken. and it remains in fractured state until the little girl grows up and makes him realize that first love is not always the truest love.
 Certainly "The Prince Chap" estab- fishes the director, William C. DeMil1e as one of the most artistic and thor ough in filmland he has presented the story with charm and hnesse. and the studio" scenes rival the 'Trilby" scenes and the murder Scenes de Ia Vie de Boheme," but he has handled these with rare deftness and skill and made the picture one of great heart interest.
 A better cast has seldom been seen in picture, and the ever-popular movie favorite Thomas Meighan, is an ideal Prince Chap'-suave, appealing, arti5- tic. Kathlyn Williams, an old-time favorite of the screen, does some re- markedly clever work as the cold hearted fancee.
 Altogether. "The Prince Chap" is one of the most finished and beautiful heart" pictures that has ever been shown here.
