happy lot of irrepressible kids.
Superintendent Clarence c. Hitch

their levity for he was the biggest
kid of them all, and in base ball
toys, with a first reader in his

gravity of the Junior high
room than any other in that
gathering Of happy youngsters.
They were Just kids-that's all
gathered in the assembly room to
give q farewell party to Mrs. Ly-
dia Beck, who is laying down her
duties as teacher in the St. Johns
bury public schools after nearly 35
years in the primary department.
1t was a surprise party for Mrs.
Beck as it would have been for
any one who gazcd on the teachers
transformed into undergraduates.
She went to the Junior high in
response to summons to attend
an important business meeting and
her surprise was complete as she
entered the room and was greeted
by the familiar morning song that
starts off the days work in her
own pleasant room. In kinder
garten chairs with hands demure-
ly folded the "children" formed a
circle around Mrs. Beck. Then
the fun began and it lasted
throughout the evening.
A little girl who in everyday
school life is known as Miss Mar
that Jenness, teacher at Maple
school, presented Mrs. Beck with
handsome clock, the gift of the
teachers of the public schools. In
addition to the lollipops, ice cream
cones were provided and several
of the children sang songs and
spoke pieces. Then they all dane
ed the Virginia reel and played
London Bridge.
The party was arranged by Miss

WARREN SINGERS IN ~ -
:, ... E.. ST. OLAF CHOIR

The st. Olaf Choir of St.. Olaf Col
lege Of Northfield is, winning fame
for itself and the college they repre-
sent and also placing Minnesota on
the map in musical circles all over
this country, particularly in the east,
where the organization has lately ap-
peared at concerts in several of the
large cities. And warren takes par
donable pride In the. success of the
choir, in as much as this city has
furnished two members of the choir
as it IS now constituted, namely, Hen
~ Halvorson, son of Mr.. and Mrs
John M. Halvorson, and Miss Gladys
Grindeland, daughter of Judge and
Mrs. A. Grindeland. The fact that
these two young students have been
admitted to this great choir speaks
well for their musical talents as well
as for the excellence Of the musical
training received in their home town
before they went away to 2 college,
Warren also is "a musical center Of
NO small proportions. 49,: .A..><: Il ::

MI. Fl. Melius Christensen.
"Such singers as his, whose tonal

Refusal by the allied finance minis
ters to meet the demand of the United
States for reimbursement to the ex-
tent of $241.o0o.0O0 for its expenses IN
the Rhineland occupation prior to
payment of reparations would be a
most extraordinary procedure" 1t
was stated today by high govern
ment official.
This official, who was discussing
newspaper dispatch from Paris to the
effect that the allied finance minis
ters to whom the demand for relm-
bursement was presented YESTERDAY
were inclined to refuse it, declared
the obligation of the allies to award
the American government sufhcient
funds to cover expenses of American
troops in guarding the Rhine was an
obligation of the most sacred cnaf-
acter.
The American government, 1t was
added. was not inclined to believe for
a moment that the allies would deny
the rights accruing to the United
States.

penses in connection with the occupa-

Crime in the United States has
reached appalling proportions and
unless checked soon will carry the
nation to anarchy. Such is the con-
clusion of five of the leading mem
bers of the American Bar Association.
appointed as committee by that or
ganization to inquire into the causes
OF the present crime wave and sug-
gest a remedy.
rive prime reasons have been ad-
vanced to the committee as the cause
of the present crime wave.
First. that the crime wave Is the
natural outgrowth of the war.
Second. that the crime wave. in
stead of being an outgrowth of the
war. Is merely one of the causes
which led to the war and which is
continuing. in aggravated form, after
the war has ended
Third. growing belief on the part
OF the masses throughout the country
that the courts are only for the rich
and deny justice to the poor. with the
resultant tendency on the part of the
poor man to take the law into his
own hands.
Fourth. that the trouble is largely
with the members of the bar them
selves. Many men practicing law to-
day. the committee has been told.
ought to be in Jail. instead.
Fifth, that conviction for crime in
the courts is difficult and that the
criminal. once convicted. is not pun
