HARDING ASKS
WORLD COURT

President in St. Louis Address
Renews Plea, But Makes
Conditions
WOULD HEAL FACTIONS
Proposals Made with Intcn-
tiOn to Wipe Out Republic
can Differences
WOULD HEAL FACTIONS

St. Louis, June 22-The sugges-
tion that reconstruction of the crea-
tive machinery of the permanent
court of international court of jus
tice be made condition to American
adhesion to the tribunal was before
the country and the world today as
the result of the pronouncement
made by President Harding here
last night in the first formal address
of his western trip.
The ears of the members of the
pres idential party which left here
shortly after midnight for Kansas
City were trained to get the reaction
both at home and abroad to the
Pres ident's suggestion surprisingly
cnunciated The audience to which
the President directly spoke received
the proposals so Unexpectedly that
it's immediate action was impossible
of aSccrtalnmCnt.
The suggestion as made by the
chief executive was put forward, he
said, "to dispose conclusively of all
other apprchenslons of danger from
the exercise of any influence what
soever, either open or covert, by the
league Of nations or by any other
organization.'
The main speeches of the recon-
struction machinery as proposed by
President Harding to accomplish this
purpose are:
l. That the world court be en-
powered to fill any vacancy arising
from the death of member or re-
tiremcnt without interposition of any
other body.
2. The existing authority of the
permanent court of arbitration to
nominate judges be continued and
the power to elect judges be trans
ferred from the council of the lea
que of nations to the remaining mem
bers of the court.
Such changes combined with minor
alterations also set forth the presi-
dent was indicated as hoping, would
tend to wipe out the fattional diff
ferences over the world court issue.

ventiOn Next Year Be-
cause of This

jamestown, N. D., July 22-There
will be no state convention of the
North Dakota Sunday School Assoc
iation next year on account of the
world convention which is to be
held at Glasgow, Scotland, was the
decision of the executive committee
of the state association in session
here. This action was taken on ac-
count of it being shown that speak
ers for the state convention would
be unavailable on account of the
world convention. Following this
decision, it is likely that it may be
decided to hold the state conven-
tion only every two years hereafter
instead of annually. The executive
committee voted $500 to defray the
expenses of state superintendent G.
A. Armstrong to the world conven-
tion.
Following the reports of the var
ious officers and committee at the
business session the following Off
GERS were elected:

43 deaths were recorded. Factories
and schools generally were closed
because of intense heat. Baltimore
pnd Washington saw the hottest
weather in the history of the two
Cities when the mercury climbed to
100 degrees.
Harrisburg, Pa, registered 96
while 96 was the maximum in New
York City, 95 in Providence and 80
in Atlantic City. Much suffering was
caused in New York, greensboro sec
tion when the water supply failed
because of the alleged illegal use of
garden sprays.
20 Overcome by Heat
Chicago and vicinity and virtually
all sections in the southwest, east
central and north states sizzled. Four
died and 20 were overcome in Chi
eago, bringing the total fatalities of
fhe week to q.
: Comparatively cool weather was
general over the Pacific Coast ex-
cept at Needles, California, where Ihe
temperature was 94. Los Angeles
and San Diego were the hottest
points on the coast, with 68 degrees.

Dy ~ LA oeTSlCe.
New Orleans, June 22.--Good fair
les like sweet little girls, and they
especially love curly haired May
Parker. Mays II years old And
all her young life she's dreamed of
the brownies and sprltes and sand
men who were said to dwell in the
pine trees far out in the country.
It's a good thing the fairies liked
May, too, because what happened
Mays mother died. Her brother
was killed by an auto. That left
May and her daddy. But her father
was sick and poor, and the best he
could afford was q frall wooden
house perilously near the poorest
section of this city.
She grew lilies, because she knew
good fairies liked them-and, we'll.
the rent had to be paid.
Then the hardest blow of all. City
authorities came along and told her
dad he'd have to go to an institution
to be cured of his ailment. And
that left May alone.
Yes, she cried bit And the tears
who dwellcd in the pines, and they
came.
One of them whispered to her that
if she's ask the help of New Orleans
newspapers, Fairy Prince would
come and all her troubles would br
over and she would smile and laugh
again.
That's what she did, and soon the
giant presses of the city dailies were
broacashing the fairies plea.
Clarence Bennett, wealthy young
business man, heard the call. And
now .,-...
"The Lord has been good to me
in recent years." says Bennett. 81
have plenty of this worlds goods.
But | have no one to make happy
that is, not until now. l haven't a
relative in the world.
"Now I'm going on long trip, and
I'm going to turn over my country
house to May and her daddy. The
house is in the thick of pine region
and I'm sure the father will get we'll.
I'll support them both the rest of
their lives, and I'll give May the best
education can. This is my big op-
portunity in life. And I'm going to
make good"
And so little May is in the beauti-
full house shaded by the very pines
in which dwell her wonderful fairies.
She has an orchard and garden.
And an auto to carry her to the city
when she wants to come.
And the wind is whistling happily
through the pines, and the fairies
oh, they're SO joyous!

lLI.aeE BLACKSMITH AT Fox's

Henry W, Longfellows immortal Village Blacksmith, made into a 1928 meladrama, yet retaining all the moral lessons taught in the famous poem, opened at fox's theater this afternoon before an appreeiative audi enee that also saw a good vaudeville bill that was varied, entertaining and contained all the elements needed for a high class show, So great is the interest in "The Village Blacksmith" that the management has arranged for a special showing of this picture at i0iso o'clock Saturday morning for the children and special admission price Of ten cents for any seat in the house has been set,
 The vaudeville bill features the Golden.west company, rolliekins comedy sketch that earns many good laughs. Other acts include Ed. Bal- ger, Gilmore and LeRoy and Earl and wynette. The acts embody some very clever song and dancing skits and brand Of comedy that cannot be beat.
 "The Village Blacksmith" Is a pie ture really in two parts. the first being devoted to a series Of beautiful scenes depicting the various episodes that stand out prominently In the poem. The main drama however. concerns the village blacksmith in a certain small town. 4 stalwart. up- standing man. he remains steadily at his work and faithful 10 his principles even when all looks dark to him. The death of his wife, the crippling cf his son. the accusation Of his daughter and mean attacks by a scheming crook all find him Enunch in his honesty until in the end the reward Of virtue Is his.
 The New Britain Choral society has rented the thcater. for Monday night so there will be neither matinee nor evening performance, but on Tuesday the usual vaudeville and picture shows will be resumed, tho photoplay sched- ,iled being John Gilbert in TruNton King. All lovers of good novels have read Harold MacGrath's famous stories of Graustarl and Trnxton King in one of these. As the valiant young American who goes into this strange foreign country and wins royal queen as his bride. John Gilbert is admirably fitted for the part he is to play.

LYeEu,I HAS GOOD SHOW.

Three new vaudeville acts of sterE ling merit, new picture, Fair lady" and an entirely new series Of experiments hy Rex, the mental telepathy wizard, comprise the new bill which opened at the Lyeeum ter day. Rex did some remarkable things and today his exhibitions are entirely changed, although he has not ceased his crystal gazing exhibitions and will continue 10 answer personal question with the aid of his mystical globule of glass, Tomorrow morning at i0ia0 o'clock he gives a special show for women alone, featuring on personal topics and answering per- sonal questions eonhdentially,
 The vaudeville srecialiies, in addi- ton 70 Miss Minnie Huber who dances with the Rex troupe and the ,iolinlst and solost with the same company include Sergeant Benny Franklin. Franklin is . marksman of national reputation and gives demonstration Of sharpshooting and acrobatic mnrksmanship that IS n revelation.
