the throne calling upon the league of
nations, with the help of America, to
investigate Germany's ability to pay
~reparations.
Mr.. Lloyd Georges expressed opin-
ion that France, confronted by the
United States and Great Britain, could
not fail to listen to nations that had
put her in the position of conqueror.
He entreated the government to take
the initiative, first by approaching the
United States and then with that
country approaching France.
Although the sentiments embodied
in the joint amendment undoubtedly
were approved by a majority of the
house it's passage would have repre-
sented censure of the government and

One of the pleasing features of the
airplane race was the securing of %
memberships individually by Miss
Bess Howell, of the Hawthorne school.
She scored the highest of any worker,
and will be presented with a "Y." tri-
angle gold pin set with pearls. Her
work was remarkable and she has
the honor of being the first person in
Bozeman to have won the distinctive
honor.
The response given to the efforts
of the workers by the. citizens of
Bozeman in signing for memberships
to the Y. M. C.. A. is most heartily
appreciated and very pleasing to the
members of the board of directors.
They have been confident at all times
there would be a fine showing made
by the people Of the city, and the re-
suits have substantiaced their belief.
There will be more Importance at
tached to the work Of the various de-
partments of the institution by the
people of the city as a result of the
drive.
One of the outstanding features of
the drive was the education of many
citizens in the work being fostered
and prompted by the Y. M. G. A. In
formation covering the many depart
ments of the "Y." and the work done,
not only in the physical departments
but in the social work as we'll. Those
who were out soliciting members
were able TO give to the persons So
licited a first knowledge of the many
admirable activities Of the instisution.
This viii be Of great help in the flu
ture to the "Y." and eliminate a great
deal Of the misunderstanding that has
heretofore existed.
The new list Of memberships is now
being compiled by Secretary Rhodes
who with Physical Director Morey
and the directors will outline a pro
gram of activities for the greatest
service to all. It is planned to ar
; range the schedules Of classes for thu
departments in such a manne as Il
give each the maximum time withou
interference with the other classes
( Especial attention is to be given t
, the children and to the woman's de
partments, which the directors decid

and even better service than in pas

Beckley showing fine form. These
with Whitney and Hartwig demon
strated there is a championship team
able to defend that title in the Mon
tana State college basketball squad.
The final score Of % to 10, with the
Bobcats on the long end made the vic
tory decisive. Tanner, Baird and
Badgeley were the outstanding fea-
lures of the Bruins team, working
fast and in perfect accord during both
games in such a fashion as to be al
ways dangerous to the success Of the
Bobcats.
A big rally was staged Monday
morning in honor of the home COM
ing of the champions. The students
met at the Y. NJ. C. A. at eight
o'clock, paraded Main street with
, their usual zip and snappy effective
ness. From there they parade to the
college campus and on to the drill
hall. Here several speeches were
made. y President Alfred Atkinson
spoke of the pleasure to the faculty
and to the college to have the team
come home decked with the laure
leaves of victory. Athletic Directol
, OFT Romney expressed his pleasure a
the success of the team and praises
the boys for the showing of a colleg'
: spirit to win. and win honorably. H
+ gave Coach Jones credit for the goo'
training done by the team and aske4
that they do their utmost to c~ontinu
the winning by taking the state cham
pionship.
After the speaking the student
I danced for a short time then attend
ed their classes. The day proved t
be one of the happiest one of the his
tory of the state college. Everyon
feels the team is sure to win the tw
games to be played on Friday an

is the big factor in building the or

active in the work
Membership attendance was some
thing to show the effort Of each Ro-
tartan to live up to its code. The or
ganization does not permit members
to do things by proxy, as is convenient
to do IN others. The members as
signed to a duty must perform that
duty himself. This keeps active at
