second year of the World war in
1916 did Great Britain introduce
such a drastic measure.
Chamberlain said war might not
appear imminent at present but
general conditions might be so un-
certain that it was desirable to
take certain precautions without
the publicity and the shock to con-
fidence of a royal proclamation.
The government. Chamberlain
declared, is impressed with the
view of other democratic countries,
and especially Britain's friends in
Europe, that despite its immense
efforts. nothing would so impress
the world as its acceptance in prin-

and would be financed by equal
contributions of employers, en-
ployes and the state. Estimated cost
is 100000 a year.
A committee of six Democrats
and five Republicans drafted 92
economy amendments which would
slash S8,500,000 from the original
S557 100000 budget. The economy
bloc declared the cuts were moder-
ate enough to secure a compromise
and the necessary 54 votes for 2-3
majority passage TO the senate.
Since the budget dispute IS al
ready in its third week and less
than a month with pay remains
for the legislators, it was believed
today'S vote will be final. unless
the two-thirdS majority is reached,
the budget will go to the senate
with a constitutional reduction OF

The climax to the budget fight
came as the assembly Sidetracked
drastic bill TO regulate lobbying
amid conflicting charges that the
third house'-meaning the lobby
istS-should be curbed and that
members had enough integrity to
withstand temptation without such
legislation.
The lobbying bill, by Hugh Don
nelly. D.. Turlock. would have re-
quired that all lobbyists be regis
tered and make financial state
ments of all moneys and fees paid

Diesel Training
Course Is Planned
At State COLLeue

A practical course in diesel engines
and tractors will be given at Montana
State college from Jan. to March II,
1910. announces H. E. Murdoch, d.
rector of the course.
Although the course is open to any
Montana resident who is II years old
and who can read and write, ENROLL
ment will be limited to the capacity Of
the laboratories, Murdoch said. For
that reason those interested in taking
the course should send in their applicae
tons as early as possible. The work
given in the course is based on the
assumption that the student has me
chanical ability, that he has had ex-
perience with machinery, engines or
automobiles. and that he is sufficient
ly mature to learn the principles Of
engines.
Half Of the time Of the student will
be spent in the classroom and half in
the laboratory. In addition to the reg
ular work of the course, students Will
also have an opportunity to get actual
experience In such related subjects as
forging, welding. babbitting, soldering
and cold metal work

about the course may be obtained by

I call them all-American because
they are one of the most typically ma
tional foods that we have. The first
New England colonists found them
growing wild in the marshes of Cape
Cod. 1t is said that at first they called
them craneberries because the shape
of the blossoms resembles the neck and
head of crane. However, that may
be, we know that the Massachusetts,
colonists thought highly of these tart
little red berries because they sent
ten barrels of them to King Charles II
of England.
But we have no record of the early
New England housewives using their
cranberries in any other way than for
jelly and sauce to go with the roasted
fowls and other meats.
So we are indebted to the ingenious
ness of our modern American women
for these other cranberry dishes that
can be served all the way from cock
tails to dessert.
If you haven't enjoyed a sparkling
ruby red Cranberry Cocktail, then I
hope you'll try one as the prelude to
your next dinner party. For it is as
delightfully."- refreshing to drink as it
