REACH AGREEMENT

Great Standardization OF
Allies Are Gamers.

Hythe, England. Anglo-French
combination which has succeeded the
big four in the management Of the al
lies dealings with Germany, deter.
mined at Sundays session upon the
principles for the settlement of both
the German indemnity and inter-allied
debts.
The principles are that the imam
cial experts of the two governments
shall recommend lump sum for the
indemnity and that the payments OF
the inter-aIied debts shall proceed
parallel with Germany's payments.
This arrangement is q substitute for
Premier Millerand's proposal under
which most stress was laid upon the
immediate payment of large sum to
France. The French delegation, how
ever, appeared satisfied with the re-
suits OF their mission.
The present purpose OF the big
two" is to present the experts plan to
the Germans at Spa.
The debt to the United States is not
embraced in the new plan, and the
governments spokesman intimated
that this would not be possible with
out the participation Of the United
States in the conference. Recognition
of Belgium's priority claims upon
Germany still stands. The proper
tional allotment OF the German In
demnity, made eight months ago, by
which France gets 55 per cent and
Great Britain 25 per cent, stands, ac'
cording to the agreement
The creditors of the allies are dis
tinct gamers by the new plan, 1t is
claimed, because it virtually makes
German payments toward the indem'
nifty guarantees for the inter-allied
debts.
The French consider themselves
gamers, on the one hand, because il
now becomes doubly to Great Brit
aims interest to press Germany for
reparations, while Great Britain, on
the other hand, secures definite assur'
ances for repayment of her loans to
France.
Another item of gain for France OBJ

Mcdonald Family on Trial.

Damaging testimony has been in
troduced by the state in it's case
against Marie, Fay and Ted McDon-
aid, daughters and son of the late
Judge William Mcdonald of Whitman
county populist days. 1t has been
shown that McNutt, the murdered
man who was last seen alive as he
entered the Mcdonald apartments in
a Spokane lodging house he and they
owned together, had been intimate
with Marie Mcdonald and had quar-
relied with her and that her sister,
Fay, had threatened to "get McNutt
with this hammer" showing a hammer
which was introduced in evidence and
identified by witnesses who heard the
quarrel and saw Fay flourish the
hammer. McNutt was killed by a
blow on the temple with blunt in
strument, making wound about the
size of the head of carpenters ham
mer. The case will probably last all
of this week.

stock grower Indirectly, receives val
liable assistance from grazing
through the prevention of fire The
livestock utilize large part of the
very inflammable material as for
age, and thereby the fire hazard is
lowered materially.
The whole situation seems to be one
that should be worked out through
cooperation between the farmer, stock
grower and the forester, and in gen.
eral, the entire population, since what
will affect the agricultural interests
of the nation should certainly be of
interest to all of US.
In connection with the problem of
determining the extent to which
range can be grazed so as to safe
guard the livestock industry as well
as protect the vegetative growth for
watershed and domestic purposes, it
will be seen that considerable expert
advice will be necessary The needs
of the stockman, farmer, miner, in
fact all people of the locality must be
considered both for the present and
future on the one hand, while the
continuance of plant life and hence
animal life, on the other may be con-
sidered Is it any wonder then that
there should be corps of trained men
provided to handle these important
problems

HOME DRAMA PLAY
GUILD HALL TONIGHT
"THE SERVANT IN THE HOUSE"
A STORY OF BROTHERLY
LOVE TO BE GIVEN

Charles Ram Kennedy in "The
Servant in the House." which will be
presented by the Drama Club at the
Guild Hall tonight, asks this question
of the audience: "Are you with those
who call themselves Smith or those
who call themselves 'Smythe 2" The
popularity of this play all over the
United States would seem to indicate
that the play appeals particularly to
the plain Smiths
1t is frankly an allegorical play. But
the allegory wont bite you any more
than the allegory in "The Blue Bird, :"
or in Bunyan's pilgrim Progress" or
in the Bible, or in Little Red Riding
hood" Plain Smiths the world over
have loved allegory; plain Smiths the
world over have loved "The Servant
in the House," and plain Smiths the
world over have thrilled with. right
eous indignation at the shortsighted-
ness and inefficiency of the Smythes
and the Makeshyftes who are So clear
ly typified in this play.
In the background, however, hovers
the shadowy figure of Manson, the
butler, whose purpose is to voice Ken
nedy's philosophy, reconcile the
Smiths and the Smythes in the play,
and bring the story to happy close.
Look again at your program! Manson
really is Mans Son; this figure is
Kennedy's study of Gods Son-the
great pacificator. This play and
''The passing of the Third Floor Back"
are our two great social documents of
brotherly love in modern drama.
The cast is as follows.
James Ponsonby Makeshyfte, D. D.

NEED PATRIOTISM
IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS
STATE SUPERINTENDENT OF
WASHINGTON SCHOOLS IS
SUES A STRONG APPEAL

OLYMPIA, Wash. - Opportunities
and privileges confronting teachers
are emphasized in the New Yeal
greeting sent out by Josephine Corliss
Preston, state superintendent of pub
lie instruction of Washington and
president of the National Education-
al association.
The message reads:
"The day has come when every
teacher in this nation must stand up
and be counted Are you 100 per cent
American? Are you inculcating the
highest principles an1 the loftiest
ideals of American citizenship in your
pupils? Do you realize the full re-
sponsbility that rests on your should
ers for training future American Cit
liens. Are you able to give this mes
sage of Americanism in such terms
that the children understand and car
ry the words home to parents who
perhaps are not so thoroughly imbued
with the American ideals?
''If so, then you are the kind of
teacher that we need in our schools
today. You are the type of person
that should be crowding the normal
schools and teacher training centers.
You are the person that should be
guiding the destiny of young America.
If you are sighting this responsible
ity, there is no room for you in the
school of our nation, for you are
liability rather than an asset.
"Never has there been more urgent
call for high minded, great hearted,
thoroughly trained, 100 per cent
educators to drive home the
vital lessons that these times hold.
Never has the future of the nation
been so entirely committed into the
hands of the teaching professian. The
lesson of patriotism, loyalty to the
flag and government are the lessons
taught to the young. These are the
lessons which should be carried home
to the fathers and mothers. Are you
teaching such lessons today?
''The new year 1920 must signalize
the new service of education. This
new service of education must include
training for every individual life
activity, and every community life ex-
preston.
''To this new service of education
call you, teachers of America. For
this service l ask you to make ready
AS true American citizens accept
this responsibility and my faith in the
certainty of your achievement"

Influenza CAUSES
ALARM IN THIS STATE
STATE BOARD OF HEALTH SEND
OUT INSTRUCTIONS TO
GUARD AGAINST 1T

The following letter has been sent
out from Boise by the state board
of health, known as the "departm ent
of public welfare" in regard to the
influenza situation. 1t is addressed
to "all mayors, women's clubs, Red
Cross chapters, commercial clubs,
ETC." 1T follows:
Influenza has appeared in six COM
munities in the state. From all ap-
pearances it is the same infection
we had last year and from the rapid
ity with which it is spreading, will tax
the united efforts of all organizations,
if it is to be controlled
You are urged to organize in your
community. Get together and map
out program for it's prevention and
control Do not wait until the dis
ease is present in your community in
epidemic form.
Last year thousands Of dollars were
lost because it was necessary to en-
force rigid quarantine. Your business
men will suffer another loss if
prompt steps are not taken to con-
troll the first cases which appear in
your community. Protection is pos
sible but depends on how vigorously
you act. If you delay putting your
shoulder to the wheel, now, don't howl
if restrictive measures are applied
when the disease gets foot hold in
your community.
The Red Cross chapter in your
community has a plan completely
mapped out for the handling of the
situation. Get in touch with the Red
Cross Immediately Study their plan
and get together so that complete CO
operation may be had from all or
ganizations.
Yours truly,
Department of Public Welfare,
