The influence and great spirit of liv- ing for others was the theme of an ad- dress made by Frank Dominick to the graduate nurses at the commencement exercises of the Birmingham infirmary last night.
 "We must not forget the vast in fluence exerted by others said MT Dominick. "The very clothes we wear are wrought by the work of others. We would be without friends if it were not for others. And the greatest trlpute that can be said of a person is that they lived for others. These nope nurses have chosen to work and live for others and their efforts shall not be in vain, for they shall be amply re- warded."
 Miss Bertha Clements, instructoress of nurses, addressed the class on The Call to Nurses You have chosen the noblest profession of all and there is an unlimited field in it outside of the hos pitals," said Miss Clements. Great good can be accomplished in social service for there is a great need of nurses In that field Work in tubercu- losis camps or sanatoriums can be done by many more. Work can be found in the poor sections of large cities. for there is where nurse who may teach the people to live amid better condi- tions Is needed"

Following the exercises punch was served to the guests during the informal reception that was held. Later on a reception was given the graduates at Linger Longer Lodge, and dancing was the programme for the last half of the evening.

FENCING RULE
ON RESERVATION


Poplar, Mont, Oct. 2O.-Supt.
James B. Kitch says he is perfectly
willing to recind the rule recently es-
tablshed requiring homesteaders and
farmers to fence their holdings and
leases on which cattle are ranged, If
the farmers will give him square
deal and pay the grazing fee.
All that ask" Mr.. Kitch said, "is
for the man who is running cattle on
this reservation to come to the agen-
cy Office, tell US how many cattle he
owns and pay for them at the legal
rate Of 81 per head.
Il am willing to pass up the fenc-
ing rule" continued Mr.. Kitch, "but
l want the farmer and homesteader to
go fifty -fifty with us in the matter of
renting the fee" Mr.. Hitch said
he was sorry to say the farmers in
general had not done this in the past
I'VE must rely on the farmers to
make a correct return Of the cattle
they are running. This is too big a
reservation for us to attempt to police
it or check up on each individual
bunch" concluded Hitch, land unless
the farmers will help US, we are out
of luck"
Mr.. Hitch said he did not want to
work hardship on anyone and all he
asked would be for the farmers to
work with him.

MELONS PLAN OPPOSED.

The struggle between reaction and
progress is having its influence upon
the fortunes of Secretary Of the Treas
ury Mellon, who is insistent that he
and he alone shall determine just ho"
the Allied debts shall be handled. The
Secretary before the House ways and
means committee made an earnest
plea that Congress accord him author
itv to handle this delicate subject,
without any restraint from Congress.
It is unlikely that Congress will do
ANYTHING so foolish or dangerous.
With all the respect in the world for
Mellon. there are a number OF Con-
gressmen who are apprehenslve that
he has something up his sleeve that
he is unwilling to disclose to their
scrutiny. They believe that those
billions which the people furnished
are matter Of public concern, ana
thew are anxious that there shall be
no unnecessary mystery in the settle
ment of our claims against European
nations.
