claim to be more truly representa-

Oxford International assembly.
which is by no means to be despised
by sts prototype, the league of ma
tions assembly in Geneva.
"Thirty-six nations are represented
BY their own nationals in this as
sembly. while three other nations
have been admitted and are repre-.
sented by experts non-nationals or
the country. Its purpose is to pro-
vide fortnightly an assembly for the
discussion of international questions.
"Although it is a working model
Of the league Of nations, it is COM
mitted to no articles of the cove
nant, and therefore, is working out
its constitution and procedure in the
freest possible way. By means OF
standing and special committees,
petty international disputes are
critically examined, so that most OF
the smoke of national hatreds has
cleared away by the time the COM
mittee presents its report to the as
sembly. The atmosphere Of the as
sembly is by no means that Of a
debating society, for there is all the
fire Of national self-consciousness
burning in each delegate. The repre-
sentation has been limited to three
delegates from each country. The
secretaries and delegates may be
right in thinking that the Oxford In
ternational assembly has done more
to promote the league of nations
idea than its model in Geneva"

Sunday evening: I haven't had the
strength to write till now. Oh, it
was so thrilling!!!!!! The show was
bowling success, everybody said,
and we made an awful lot of money.
1t was worth all the time we spent
on it and the effort and everything,
in my estimation. People in the au-
dience said our costumes were the
most effective things! And they
didn't see how we ever got the steps
in that dance. We were all so ex-
cited that we just had to make good,
and we fairly cracked our throats.
Thank goodness, Ernie-I danced

the women anyway. I'm on the

COURT DECISION
DOES NOT AFFECT
LOCAL COMPANIES
Especial MolIne service.I

6 Decision of the Illinois supreme
court granting voting power to
owners of preferred stock, will not
entail any extensive changes in
the system of the Moline Industrial
corporations, according to officials
Preferred stockholders will likely
vote at the next stockholders meet
ing to be held in Moline.
T. F. Wharton of Deere &c Co.
stated today that the court ruling is
not likely to affect the Deere or
ganization because, he said, the
controlling interest in both prefer
red and common stock is held by
the same interests. 1t is reported
however, that there are a large
number of owners of preferred
stock who are not directly affiliated
with the management of the COM
pany.
George N Peek, president of the
Moline Plow company, said that be-
cause of the organization which is
under way at the present time the
supreme court decision is not like
ly to cause any changes with the
pillow company. Mr.. Peek explained,
however, that his opinion is tenta-
tive, as attorneys of the company
have not yet made a study of the
decision.

Thomas X. Wilkinson, former resi-

court enjoining City Treasurer
Charles Robson from attempting to
dispose of their property at a tax
sale for a special paving assessment

The sale was scheduled for to-
day, and the property owners claim
the assessment is in excess of rs
per cent of the valuation of the
property and should be $500 instead
of $4,64210. They have rendered
the city $400 and the offer has been
rejected.

Feeding Early Birds.

Rock Island. Feb. 26.-Editor
The Argus: Your editorial Of Sat
urday with relation to feeding rob
ms who evidently made the mis-
take of coming north just a bit
ahead of spring is good sugges-
ton. Bird lovers, no doubt, will
heed your suggestion, inasmuch as
scraps and crumbs fz~m the table
need only to be tossed into the back
yard before they are readily COB
bled up by our feathered friends.
People who have canary birds in
the home can also help. We al
ways throw into the back yard the
seed from the bottom of the cage
which our canaries waste. 1t is a
treat for the robins and other birds
and it disappears quickly. And
you can rest assured they look for
it every day. A READER
