The country's representative at Geneva
explained to Sir Herbert Ames that,
as the national treasury was not able.
owing to exchange conditions, to pur-
chase so large an amount In dollars or

asked for a popular contribution OF

At Geneva, during the'writer's pres
ence in mid-August, the atmosphere
was electrical with anticipation over
the approaching NTH assembly. II
will have been the first assembly
ever graced by tho presence OF prime
ministers of great powers, for Mac
Donald Is coming from Great Britain,
and Herr;ot from France. Mussolini
too. has talked Of coming. Geneva
feels that the attendance OF Mac
Donald and Herriot will immensely
enhance league prestige. II, In con-
sequence OF their participation In the
Assembly and council the league Is
intrusted with the supervision or
armaments in Germany. In consonance
with the arrangements effected at the
recent London conference. 1t expects
to acquire an accession OF authority
that may be of far-reaching impor-
tance. Ramsay MacDonalds en-
thusiasm for the league Is proveroial.
Herriots belief in 1t Is less well
known. In a recent interview with
Norman Angel, well-known FRANCO
American publicist, Herriot declared
that the principle on which France
would continue her search for Sc
curity is the League of Nations. In
der Articles 10. 16 and 2l. France
proposes that tho allies should make
a common and mutual treaty OF as

Since then. Britain has rejected the
treaty of mutual assistance, alleg-
ing the objections of her dominions

RECEPTION FOR
TEACHERS

The spacious rooms and grounds of
the handsome Dickey home were well
adapted to the reception given on
Friday night by the Woman's Club to
the teachers of the city schools. There
was delightful informally and every
one present seemed to enjoy the oc-
casion especially well.
The introduction of the teachers and
the program were featured in a unique
way. A blackboard placed in the
living room was autographed at roll
call by each teacher present, and in
the words of the chairman, Mrs. R.
I. Maffett, of some were exacted a

bowls on tables placed on the wide
veranda and ON the lawn and presid
ed over by bevy of the younger
club matrons. At late hour delicious
chicken sandwiches and minis were

hospitality chairman, and her commit
tee. There were present beside the

sentation, husbands of the club mem
bers and the school board as special
