- £nnitv years following its organization until by the time the war broke out it constituted a considerable percentage of the voting population and the members of this party took every occasion to denounce theentry of Italy into the war ‘‘Benito Mussolini had been one of the Socialist party for some time He was the editor of the Socialist paper known as the “Avanti” or the “Forward” but like a large number of Italiaus Mussolini was to Austria and bitterly opposed contrary tb the course of the majority of his party he took an active part in arousing Italy to joiu the Allies so active in fact that the Socialists compelled him to withdraw from their party “Benito Mussolini was born in 1892 at I’redappie Forli His father was a blucksunth and a socialist of the international persuasion Mussolini's mother looked forward to a career lor her son and sent him to school Following the tradition of a great many Italian mothers she looked hopefully toward the church for his career and desired to have her son become a priest Mussolini however did not share his mother's aspirations lie helped his father in the blacksmith shop as an apprentice aud there he learned the trade of blacksmithing Later he likewise Itarned the trade f a mason uudjioinu ygaw lter in Switzerland he worked at his mason's trade “From tlie day of his birth Mussolini was a restless individual full of energy and a rebel by nature He spent some time in Switzerland at the University of Lausanne but the government forced him to leave the country because of bis agitations" “In 1918 at the close of the war the world recognized that Italy liad fought with heroism bravery and devotion in the cause of the Allies Six hundred thousand of her sons had been killed and one and one-ha- lt million wounded The financial load for this poor country was left in the depths of poverty Mussolini in connection with his country favored a strong peace for Italy but this was not obtainable “Through the experience of the war and conditions which followed it Mussolini changed his point of view and now became a strong nationalist preaching through the paper he had established patriotism to country aud stability of government He had become bitterly opposed to revolution with Us attendant extremes He caused the middle class to rally around him The upper class however still mistrusted him A roit broke out in Bologna headed by tlie communists aud Senior Geord-on- i a great war hero was murdered in the council chamber of the City Hall Mussolini strongly opposed such procedure and gathered arouud him a body of young men With these men he suppressed a strike in 1922 To the more stable citizeus this begau to show— some hope though tlie methods used were so rough and a large section of the people only justified them as a means of securing order” “The Facisti movement grew very rapidly until miliums joined the movement and finally they obtained such strength that they demanded the control of the government” Ir Thomas related the history in connection with thy making of Mus- rt—r ate rjr-uTTui- r “Mussolini is really the dictator of Italy” said Dr Thonus "The king and parliament have submitted to his wishes as well as tlie country In the last election S5 per cent of the voters endorsed his party and his policy” Dr Thomas did not give hisews in regard to the conditions as they exist today He assumed an unbiased attitude and gave only the history of the situation as it has been made in the last few years He told of some of Mussolini's ambitions one of which is to increase the population of Italy from 40 million to 60 million people within a few years and maintain a standing army of more than five million men The speaker then pointed out many of the difficulties Mussolini would encounter before his program is com-- c A F E The Inspector : Eats Here I pleted In conclusion Dr Thomas said “We Americans located as we are on a continent by ourselves with our lines of demarkatlon well fixed with our determination to Americanize the foreigners aft they come to this country understand but slightly the difficult problems which confront the European nations made up as they are from a great variety of races overlapping each other through a series of historic invasions in their desire to obtain maritime advantages and the necessity of possessing or controlling important natural resources and the routes of trade” Why Not You?

pool for demonstration and illustration Coach Leaf has gone over the various kinds of out swimming carefully pointing tlie correct position and the proper action for the various types Speaking of tlie coaching of swimmers Coach Leaf indicated that the same general principles hold with swimmers as with other sports Every athlete is an individual and all of them vary In the amount of work they can do Leaf warned the coaches not to overdo their men and to remember that they burn up much more quickly while swimming than while running It takes almost as much energy for the 50 yard dash in the water as for the quarter mile on land In the coaching of sprinters Leaf jsiiiited out that the principle thing desired was leg drive and that a man will never be a fast swimmer unless he has a powerful leg drive The men must be trained over long periods of time to develop this power and when they get it they will be fast swimmers ordinarily The legs are much more Important than tbe dashes according to Leaf At tbe conclusion of the swimming school on Saturday Coach Leaf will give each coach a list of the fundamentals of his system of swimming a list of the don’ts in swimming a list of the most common faults among swimmers of this section and of the coaches themselves and another list indicated the corrective measures to take for these faults Both Nelson ninl Leaf will conclude their Coach

ever been done before In 1861 with Lincoln came a more wholesome atmosphere His party believed that the slave trade and the operation of plantations should be abolished “In 1875 America began taking interest in the Panama caual We were growing strong and rich” Dr McLaughlin pointed out that the Monroe Doctrine of 1895 meant that what America said was final The remainder of liis disqoi dealt with strokes of state tliaV to show that American statesmen had set up a label or a phrase kuowu as the Monroe Doctriue and worshipped the label and would die for it even though they did not agree with the doctrine involvedi “I am not here to say that it is wrong to foster a spirit of imperialism” said Dr McLaughlin ‘‘it is the way empires grow but I don't like to see old America with old American principles fade away with tlie spirit of imperialism ” by Tlie lecture was teruiiuated tlie speaker refering to the dream of Wilson who advocated a Monroe Doctriue for the world He said that the
