So successful has been the work of the American University union in Eu rope and so great have been its accom plishments in aiding the American men in war service, that it has been de cided to continue it in both Paris and London, according to an announce ment made by Anson Phelps Stokes, secretary of Yale university and chair man of the board of trustees of the union. The union was established pri marily to meet the needs of college men from this country who were in the service, but the trustees have de cided, according tc Mr. Stokes, after conferences with their officers abroad and with the member institutions, that the union has a permanent function to perform in aiding American students in these countries, in supplying infor mation to foreign students regarding American institutions of lfigher learn ing and in ac ting in various ways as ji medium of communication between the universities of the United States and of Europe. The board of trustees proposes to In augurate a campaign In the autumn to obtain the money necessary to erect a permanent building in Purls on a site valued at $1Q0.000 offered by the mu nicipality of I'aris for this purpose. The trustees also have decided to raise an endowment fund to help maintain the work, although consider able support will continue to come from the American universities and colleges. Almost all of the most im portant institutions of higher learn ing in the country, such as Ilarvard, Columbia. Dartmouth. Yanderbilt. Johns Hopkins. University of Chicago.

At last, reaching the stage of action in its consideration of the peace treaty, the senate swept aside in quick suc cession today thirty-five amendments which had been written into th3 document by the foreign relation? committee. The smallest majority as recorded against any of the committee pro posals was fifteen and the largest was twenty-eight. All of the amend ments considered had been introduc ed by Senator Fall, republican, of New Mexico, and were designed to curtail American participation in European settlements resulting f'rom the war. Of the nine amendments yet to be acted on. six relate to the Shan tung section, two propose to equa lize voting power in the league of nations and one would limit Ameri can representation in the reparations commission. In the absence of a definite agreement for disposition of these proposals, senate leaders thot tonight that the debate mi.ht run cn for several days before another roll call is taken. Kow They Lined Up Throughout the day's voting the democrats presented a solid front against the amendments except for Senators Gore of Oklahoma and Thomas of Colorado. Seventeen republicans. on the other hand, lined up against tlio first committee proposal to be con sidered and most of them stood with the democrats on all succeeding roll calls. Many cf them announced they were for reservations which they believed would cover the same ground without endangering the treaty. i iliss Dorothy Peacock, a pretty re cruiter, pinning a service button, is sued by the United States government, on an ex-soldier. k 33-Year Loan BUT WHICH CAN BE PAID SOONER IF DESIRED o Commissions We place such loans through the LINCOLN JOINT STOCK LAND BANK, of Lincoln, Nebraska, which during the past year has loaned over $6,000,000.00 to the farmers of Iowa and Nebraska.

Ruether, the victor of the opening game of the series was sent to the mound by Moran while Man- jager Cleason of the Sox selected Dick Kerr, the dimunitive southpaw, who has scored the only victory against the Reds in the stries. The first two innings were scoreless for both sides. In the third inning the Cincinnati champions piled up two scores, while they continued to hold the Comisky club to the ground. ' Two more scores in the fourth served to further increase the lead of Moran's followers and it looked like a safe bet th3t today's will be the last game played. In the fifth inning 'the Sox put across-one lone runner, bringing the tally up to 4 to 1. The sixth set the dopsters to guessing, when the Sox canie back strong with three runs evening up the score, and giving both sides a fair chance to win today's game. The tie continued through the re maining innings of play until the last half of the ninth when Chicago succeeded in putting another run ner across the plate and won 5 to 4.

Congress has given the nurse ro medals or honors as reward for htr war service. Two congressmen, f t leitst, intend that she shall have offi cial recognition iu the national health programs of peace. Senator Owen of Oklahoma and Rep resentative JIcDuflie of Alabama are the two men who, by their promise to the National Organization for Public Health Nursing to include a bureau of public health nursing in their bills providing for a federal department of health, have given evidenc e that they realize the value of the nurse in con serving national health. Of all the many classes of woman workers who rendered distinguished service during the war none came through with more credit than the pub lic health nurse. While her sister, the army nurse, was binding wounds be hind the battle lines ia France, the public health nurse fought the influ enza epidemic at home fought it with an alert competence and a marvelous devotion for which indeed, many of them paid with their lives. Nor Was the influenza epidemic the only '"major engagement" in which the public health nurse deserved the? honors of war even though she did not always receive them. In the extra-cantonment zone surrounding the great draft camps, in city and country communi ties deprived of medical service by the departure of their doctors for service overseas everywhere these tireless workers made themselves to invaluable that Secretary of War Baker in re viewing the war experience declared: "The public health nurses, one of the greatest forces in promoting national health, are needed in greatly increased numbers." The present supply of public health nurses is entirely inadequate to meet the vastly increased demand. Accord ingly the National Organization for Public Health Nursing has undertaken a campaign to recruit more student nurses into the public health nursing field. TWO BOYS FIND LOST CAVE Dropped Into a Hole, but Indians Failed to Find It. Two boys while hunting near Rom bauer. Mo., accidentally discovered a cave, which is believed to be the "lost cave" for which the Indians searched for more than fifty years without suc cess. Te boys were after rabbits and the chase had gotten unusually exciting when they felt the earth suddenly give way under them on a bill, and they fell many feet into the newly made hole. When they related the incident it was remembered that the Indian had searched the hills for the cave, the opening of which was marked by a rock with a turkey foot cut on it pointing to the opening. This rock has been found near the? cave. It is estimated that tLe cave is 300 years old, and evidently is not a nat ural one, but made for some purpose yet to be discovered. Two men spent three hours exploring numerous huge rooms and estimated they had gone a mile and a half without getting to the end of it. SAVES BOTTLE OF TEA Man Hit by Train Gives Undertaker the Laugh. After being struck by a fast ex press train and thrown down a l!3-foot embankment at Quincy, Mass., Rotnan Gomes, an employee of the New Ha ven railroad, laughed l.eartily at the undertaker and crowd who rushed to his assistance with stretchers, and calmly went back to his work replac ing railroad ties. Homes failed to hear the train. The engine struck him a glancing blow, as the engineer jammed on the brakes, and Rotnan, eyeglasses on his face and n big bottle of tea in his trousers pock et, went spinning down a 23-foot em ban kinent. Solemnly the train crew wended their way back with an emergency stretcher, and an undertaker who was a passenger on the train was command eered. Rut Rotnan was found brush ing the dirt from the cork of the cold tea bottle. GET BACK GERMAN LOOT Over Million Tons of Material Already Recovered Figures given In ttie course of the sitting of the chamber of deputies by the peace treaty committee show that offices set up in Wiesbaden and Brussels to obtain the return from Ger many of stolen goods have effected the recovery to date of 255,000 and 8i0, 000 tons respectively of materials of all kinds. It was stated, however, that ibis was but a small proportion of the things taken by the Germans. As an example it was asserted that of 950, 000 head of cattle carried off only 8,000 head had been recovered. Air Service Not Greatest Risk. Casualties among infantry officers were higher Jhan among aviators, ac cording to a report bfthe war depart ment, showing tint 55 infantry officers and 45 enlisted men of every 1,000 were returned as battle deaths, against 31 officers and one man for the air service.
