When in his memorable address lie sent forth an appeal to the i women of the-world to protect their : children from false ideas of strife and from those doctrines calculat ed to inculcate prejudice and ha tred among peoples, the great an . dience which packed the assembly hall burst into wild and prolonged ; cheers. The French premier contented himself with a modest reference to his project for u "United Rtutes Of Europe," saying that, although his idea had been described as a dream, he was convinced that the - nations of Europe could establish closer lies to their mutual benefit. He asked the governments to . fltudy this problem, remarking sig- tiificantly that in addition to mill . tary disarmament there was an ) ' lher kind of disarmament that was necessary, and that was a:i . economic one, he believed this problem should he. attacked from Hie political standpoint. , .

When Butte Falls School Board Meets Knotty Problems Argued Into Wee Small Hours of Night given the Job for $ t T a month. As there are only u:out I'O school days to the month, some thought this high, tiillis Comtwrlght. another director, was their mouthpiece, and maintained that bids should be posted immediately and that tem porary provision only should be made lor the remaining 1" or IS days of this month. While the motion wavered in the ether and Mr. Coutrwgiht argued the case of the taxpayer, the audi once shifted forward in their seats, Mrs. Simmerviile asked her choice for the job what he could charge by the day for the remaining days of the month. The man allowed that it would cost him exactly $:") a day to haul the II) children six miles. He couldn't possibly do it for any less. Again an awful silence and the au dience looked its neighbor in the eye. A Mr. Weber In the back of the. room cleared his throut. "I'M beat, that all hollow. I'll haul the kids for $2.50," he said. There was a relieved gale of laugh ter from the spectators, Mr. Weber was the sensation of the moment. The $5 man, catching the fire of competitive bidding, came down to $2. He was Tn the verge of be ing accepted when he wanted to know who would handle the insur ance on his vehicle. Ho couldn't do it, he said. There was the next knotty problem before the hoard. He withdrew his $2 bid. Kinally. Mr. Coutright, the direc tor, to settle the argument, offered to transport half of the children for the remainder of the month, free of charge In his own car. Mr. Weber stepped forth and offered free transportation to the other half. Then came a bombshell from a man in the back of the room, who insisted that the two volunteers be charged for their generosity by requiring them to take out bonds insuring the lives and safety of the children. And so on and on into the night. Earnings Tidewater Associated Oil Co.
