Sir Eric Drummond NGid tribute to
Elihu Root for the important part he
played in tho conception of tho scheme
from which the court sprang. In his
opinion the permanent court WAS tho
greatest and most creative act of the
league. It was an international body
entirely free from all political control,
subjected to advice or revision by tho
council or the assembly. He spoke Of
the foundation Of the court as ray
Of light in the path Of progress now
enshroudcd in fog.
M. Van Karncbcck said that proud
and grateful honor had been conferred
on the Netherlands. After paying trib-
ute to Mr.. Root, by whose help difficult
ties were overcome. he addressed the
Judges:
Your responsibility is the greater
because states having recourse TO you
will have renounced the right Of freely
choosing the judges. which is a feature
of the court Of arbitration existing

WASHINGTON, Feb. 49, The House
Naval Committee in trying to discover
some way OF reducing appropriations
for the naval establishment next year
was reported day to have agreed i'll
formally TO recommend that tho first
class at Annapolis, TO be graduated in
June, be turned back to civil life with
cut commissions in the navy.
Although members declined TO dis
cuss this proposal. it il understood that
such a recommendation probably will
lie made, along with tho further pro
posal that the number OF men to be ad-
mttoG to tho academy each year be re-
duccd from five to two for each mem

posed that the Congres ssional allotment

man, urging that tho entire class he
dropped, declared linal decision on this
question would be reached AT The
earliest possible tine in orGcr to let
tho midshipmen know whether they
could expect to remain on the govern

would give the navy an enlisted per

Nobody in authority was prepared to
say ofthand what the enlisted personnel
would be il only $4,000 900 was uu-
thorzed, although all agreed it would
scrap the treaty navy and give it an

GLENDIVE is READY
FOR DEPOT OPENING

Glendive.-Arrangements for the
formal opening Of the new depot re-
ceived a considerable impetus this
week at meeting of the general COM
mittee in charge. All of the COM
mittees reported some progress and
outlined tentative program. 1t was
an enthusiastic gathering of business
and railway executives, determined to
make the dedication and homecoming
of railway men the greatest event that
Glendive has staged and one that will
go down in the annals of eastern Mon
tana as a memorable occasion. The
celebration will cover one day only, but
every minute Of that day will be oc-
cupied in some manner.
The committee on invitations re-
ported that it will hold a meeting of
the officers of D. J. Neil to make a
final draft of the list of persons to
who special invitation will be sent
This will include all Northern Pacific
railway officers, all men formerly
connected with the Yellowstone di.
vision, limited number of state Of.
ficials of both North Dakota anc
Montana; newspaper men, and presi
dents and secretaries of commercial
organizations.

pends on the man. Henry Ford sue
ceeded with one, though he worked
out the philosophy afterward. The eld-
er Rockefeller who built the family
fortune, succeeded with the other, and
his son naturally favors it. Each is
mistaken when he recommends his sys-
tenn to everybody, just as Edison is
mistaken when he urges people in gen.
eral to cut their sleep to four hours a
day.
Fortunately, God has made people
alike in fundamentals, but infinitely
different in their details of character
and talent. Otherwise there would be
no variety in life, experience and a.
chievement.
All that can be done in the way of
wisdom is to work out certain broad
rules for every individual to adapt
himself according to his own charac-
ter and requirements. The plodder
needs to spend money and get exper-
ience. The business adventurer needs
to steady down and save money and
keep accounts.-The Daily Missoulian.

GERMANS TO BUILD
A SAFE DIRIGIBLE

Berlin.-Facing the fact that men,
ories Of the R-38 and Roma disasters
still are freshly in mind throughout
the world, Germany's builders of the
new Zeppelin intended for commercial
use in the United States are prepared
to exhaust every resource at their
command in producin the "last word"
in aircraft. The Zeppelin company
stands ready to "stake it's reputation"
on the project, according to an Amer
lean official who has figured promi-
nently in the negotiations for the con-
tract recently signed here.
This official pointed out, however,
that the undertaking strikes no awe
in the hearts of the constructors since
they already have built larger ships
than that now under contract. In
fact, he said, they are equipped to
produce Zeppelin of 100000 or even
10000 cubic meters, as compared with
