ENGLISH LOF
SEES HOPE FOR
t
MANCHESTER, England, June 2
(by Associated Press).—Lord Reading,
lord chief justice of England and for
mer ambassador to Washington, talks
hopefully of the prospects of a League
of Nations.
w “Whether the league becomes a wea
pon for the preservation of peace, or
whether it withers and dies, does not
depend upon the government, on
^statesmen or politicians, but upon the
peoples of the member countries,” he
told the Manchester Chamber of Com
merce. “In time to come, if the pub
lic of the various countries will put
their heart and soul into it, we may
eventually arrive at a stage when war
might be regarded as a thing of the
past.”
Lord Reading said the words of
Washington’s farewell address were
treasured by the American people “as
perhaps never had words of man been
treasured.” This he cited as illus
trating the very strong conservative
traditions of the United States, which
he asked his audience to take into
account in considering the present
American attitude toward the league.

tana are not poisoned by gopher
eradication bait, is declare by Pro
fessor R. A. Cooley, of Montana State
college and G. A. Roosevelt, biological
survey assistant. The only birds that
are known to have been poisoned at
any time by the gopher bait, they de
clare, are crows and magpies. Game
birds of the gallinaceous family are
strangely immune to strychnine pois
oning, it is declared, while the smaller
birds are not fond of oats, the grain
which is used for the gopher bait.
FRENCH SOLDIER ASKED
TO SIGN CERTIFICATE
DECLARING HE IS DEAD
•
PARIS, June 2 (by Associated
rress).—To be asked to sign his own
death certificate was the experience
recently of a French soldier named
Bregot. He had been reported killed
in the war but was found in good
health at Belfort by a gendarme who
thrust the death certificate in his
hands, asked him to sign it and left
without explaining the reason for the
extraordinary request.
Bregot has begun what is expected
to be a long legal process to prove
that he is still living.
STOCK MONTANA WITH
CHINESE PHEASANTS
ANACONDA, Mont., June 2 (by As
sociated Press).—The state game and
tifeh commission at a meeting here de
cided to purchase 300 Chinese phea
sants and a large number of eggs of
the Same fowl, with which to stock
portions of the Missouri and Black
foot river valleys. An effort was
made a number of years ago to stock
these districts but adverse conditions
rapidly thinned out the numbers until
today none remain.
LARGE CEMENT ORDER
FOR MONTANA HIGHWAY
BUTTE, Mont., June 2 (by Associat
ed Press).—To construct the concrete
paved road between Anaconda and
Butte, extending a distance of 26
^liies. It will require 450 carloads oi
cement, 870 carloads of sand and 137
of crushed rock. For this project
the state highway commission has
placed an order for 87,000 barrels of
cement, which is probably the larg
est single order of this kind ever
given in the state.
This will be the first rural paved
road constructed in Montana, will be
18 feet wide, except at the curves,
where the width will be 20 feet. II
is estimated the road will cost at
least $250,000, one-half of which will
be provided through federal aid.

j CHARMING GARDEN FROCK
Here is shown one of the season's
garden frocks, it is composed of a
white silk skirt with an unusual old
gold blouse, set off by a broad-brimmed
white hat.
ABOUT THE LATE NECKWEAR
Separate Collars, Scarfs, Net Frills,
Jabot Ruffles, Ribbons and
Beads in Favor.
This is a season of neckwear.
The shops are full of lovely “sepa
rate” collars, and that, of course, if,
an indication of the style for sepa
rate bits of white and colored neck
wear.
There is, perhaps, nothing new that
might be used for neckwear. Within
the last few years we have used ba
tiste and handkerchief linen, organdie
and net, lace and crepe de chine, tulle
and embroidery. These things are
still used, all of them, for neckwear.
It is just the way they are used that
makes them seasonable.
For one thing, there are batik scarfs
of silk this season. They are lovely
in color and design.
Then there are lovely waistcoats of
brocaded and embossed ribbons.
Net frills are fastened on the edge
of organdie collars and jabots.
Fine handkerchief linen is heavily
embroidered in satin stitch.
Sheer, cobwebby lace is used to
form jabot ruffles, attached to high col
lars, that suggest the beruffled shirts
of the dandies of bygone days.
Not exactly neckwear, but in these
days sensibly classed with it, because
it all goes to produce the right effect
at the neck finish of the bodice, Is
tlie bead chain. Some new ones are
made of ribbon and heads. The rib
bon forms the center part of the chain,
and at each end of the ribbon, a strip
perhaps three-quarters of a yard long,
there is attached a chain of heads.
The city council of Nome recently
appointed several native policemen tc
assist in the suppression of vicious
relations between the local Eskimos
and depraved whites. It is said that
illicit relation between the natives
and a certain class of whites have
become so common at Nome that but
few native families remain which dc
not include a number of children ol
mixed Breeds. Also there are to be
found among the younger generatior
a number of Eskimo men who hire
their women out to the whites. The
natives are not as much to blame as
| the whites as they are yet untutorec
and have a different degree of mor
ality than the whites.

BERLIN, June 2 (by Associated jjij
Press). Germany’s paper money in
circulation amounts to 60,000,000,000; :£
marks and is increasing by 1,000,000,- j:j:
000 marks a week, declares August $j
Mueller, former minister of econom- :j:j
ics. The printing of bank notes is the jij:
only flourishing industry in Germany
today, he says in an article in the
Abendblatt. He attributes this activ
ity in printing of money to government
subsidies undertaken in a vain effort
to reduce the prices of food and also
to the continual increasing of salaries
“to an absurdly growing officialdom
who find next day they are no better
off, owing to the overnight decline cf
; the buying power of the paper mark.”
Germany’s indebtedness, says Herr
Mueller, is now about 230,000,000,000
marks. This, he adds, is, perhaps, j
redeemable at the present low value
of the mark, but never if it recovers '
even half its former value.
Herr Mueller is unable to see a rem
edy except in increasing production,
which, he says, seems to preoccupy
the present rulers of Germany less'
than the anxiety to keep in office.
