SCHOOL GIRLS FRIVOLOUS

OAKLAND, Calf, February 49,
Omitted Press.) Girl students of
today are too frivolous, says Dean
Ruth Wilbur of Oakland Technical
high school.
Gwen in Wellesley and Vassar and
in schools throughout the United
States this same condition is found"
she asserted.
."But stunts, get-acquainted games
and refreshments will take the place
of dancing. Nowadays too many
dances punctuate the girls' school
life.
Miss Wilbur advocated athletics for
girls.
"Hsalthful sports provide an out
let for their energy and builds them
up" she said. Zone seldom sees an
athletic school girl boy struck or

Reservations
To Treaty May
Be Accepted
By Democrats
Hitchcock Shows Signs Of
Democratic Relaxation of
Opposition To Ratifica-
ton.
Omitted Press Service)

WASHINGTON, February 49,
This ssnstor Lodge called
up the peace treaty and moved that
the Senate take sup his proposed
amendment on the reservation relat-
ing to withdrawal by the United
States from the League of Nations.
In the opening speech of the debate,
Senate Mccormick of Illinois, Re-
publican "bitter ender," assailed
those trying to compromise the re-
servations. To show the need for re-
vision of the treaty Mccormick
quoted statements made in the Brit
ish Parliament by Lord Curzon and
other British statesmen.
Speaking for the mild reserva-
tionists," Senator McCumber OF
North Dakota, said: "The vast ma
jority of people in the United States
are asking the Senate to unite on
some reservation that will enable the
treaty to be acted upon favOrably;
they are tired of this eternal dis
agreement; this child's play of OBJ
stinacy of factions over matters not
substantial or important. A number
of senators are willing to support
eitehr The Lodge reservations, the
Taft reservations, the Bipartisan
reservations on Article X. These re-
servations all mean the same thing.
| defy anyone to point out any legal
difference"
Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska, the
Democratic floor leader, interruted
McCumber by saying that he hoped
he (McCumber) would not create an
impression that either the Taft re-
servation or the Bipartisan reserva-
tion are accepted by Democrats as
suitable. Hitchcock said that both
reservations are distarsteful to him;
but he, with other Democrats, are
willing to support them as a means
of compromise.

lie E. Rowley, an inspector in the
United States customs service, who
had come but couple of months ago
from his home in Madison, Wiscon-
SIM to take the post he holds, which
he had sought for sake of the mild
and balmy climate of southern Ari-
zona, on account of his health, i'm
paired by exposure and gassing in a
long severe service in the great war.
1t was while in that service that Mr..
Rowley made acquaintance with a
French gentlewoman, one of the
nobility, countess in her own right,
but the last of her line, who was do
ing fine service as hospital nurse.
When the war first commenced
Mr.. Rowley hastened to France and
enlisted in the Foreign Legion, in

full years. Then when the American
army arrived he sought and was
granted a transfer, being given a
commission in one of the regiments

two officers here to lay out the field. |

PARIS, February 16.-The French
Press is aroused over President Will
sons most recent note upon the
situation in the Adriatic, in which
the American Chief Executive has
informed the Entente Allies that if
they settle that question without the
concurrence of America, the United
States cannot concern itself further
with settlement of pending European
questions.
''La Liberte" is particularly bitter
in it's criticism, declaring that evil
son is again attempting to direct up
on the European continent affairs of
vast moment of which he has no
conception"
In an interview given out Premier

Yesterday Post Master J. ]. Nc
Intyre received telegram from the
Post Office Department in Washing
ton, D. c., instructing him to notify
Mr.. Earl D. Hammack that his offer
of post office building to be leased
to the department for term Of five
years, had been accepted, and that
letter conveying the necessary pa
pers will be mailed to Mr.. Hammack
at once.
When interviewed Mr.. Hammack
stated that construction of suitable
building on the site selected will be-
gin at once, and that within three
months the new building will be COM
pleted and occupied.
This projected change marks the
addition of another business street to
the commercial thoroughfares of the
Line City, for without doubt many
business edifices will be erected on
Nelson avenue within the block that
the new post office will occupy, and
they will house good commercial es-
Establishments. And growth of tribut-
ary population with the trade it will
bring, will make need for them. The
contemplated removal of the post of
flee to the Nelson Avenue location is
but another evidence of the fact that
Nogales is discarding the sawddling
clothes of a village existence to the
proper habiliments of proud city.

board until pending problems are

Resisting efforts to sidetrack his
resolution Ashurst said: eve are

because so far we have taken orders
from the various executive depart
ments. have found that the de-
partments are wrong about 800 of
the time, and Congress right"
Senator McKellar's resolution,
which was adopted, forbids sale of
the ships until the Senate acts, and
it directs the chairman of the Ship
ping Board to report to the Com
nierce Committee of the Senate as
to offers received.
