League delegates today declared the establishment of the international court of justice to be far and away the most important undertaking of the Nation.
Jon Bassett Moore, of the United States, member of the present court at the Hague, was elected by the assembly on the second ballot this afternoon. On the first ballot nine judges were chosen.
There was the keenest political "log-rolling" for the positions, the South American countries being strong in agriculture and the balance of power in many instances.

Pi is biy making the rounds of his old friends on the Hill, informing them that the report of his demise that they read during the summer, told him that he was a World story, is greatly exaggerated. Pi never heard of Mark Twain, either.
The year's first tags broke out yesterday. Yes, you're right, they showed up in the Engine school.
Closer inspection of the banners discloses the fact that on the side seen when coming from the railroad and interurban stations, they are a very appropriate crimson and blue, but the reverse side, once seen one is within sight.

Formal Indictment Will Be Returned to Grand Jury Thursday
Thursday
San Francisco, Sept. 14—Whether "Fatty" Arbuckle will face trial for murder or for manslaughter will be determined by the outcome of the inquest today, the district attorney's office indicated.
If the coroner's jury finds that the life of Miss Virginia Rappe was taken with the intention of committing a felony, if she was murdered—the district attorney probably will insist on prosecuting Arbuckle on the murder charge awned to two days earlier. Maude Debunet, "the avenuer"
If the jury returns an "open verdict" leaving a doubt as to the exact causes of death, or if it finds death was due to natural causes, then the prosecution will probably be on the leisure side. The daughter returned by the grand jury.
The indictment will be formally returned to the court of Judge Shortall presiding over the grand jury at 11 o'clock Thursday. After it is served, the judge will courts the judge to whom it is assigned issue a bench warrant for Arbuckle's arrest and set bail, probably at $15,000.

Women's Student Council.
The book exchange operated by the Women's Student Government Association for several years past will be continued by the same organization under its new name, the Women's Student Council.
The object of this organization is to reduce the cost of books and to aid the students, who have old books which are practically useless to themselves but very valuable to other students, in selling their old books.
They take the books and sell them at the price designated by the owner, keeping ten per cent for profit to the organization.
The book stand is located in Fraser at the junction of the two long corridors on the first floor. For many years this organization has been serving the University, furnishing the students with books at a low price, many of which could not be procured at the book stores.
Students who have books for sale are urged to patronize this organization and also the freshmen who will find many of the books they need there. Good care of the books is guaranteed.
Enough Teachers to Fill All Kansas Places Now
Supply and demand in the teachers' market is rapidly approaching normal in Kansas, according to F. J. Kelley, PhD, professor at the University of Kansas and dean of University administration at the University of Kansas. "This is due to the fact that many former teachers who quit the profession during the past few years have become teachers."
"With the depression in the labor market, public school teachers are something of a compensation for the low salaries which they received during the period of rapidly rising costs. There is still call for, for thoroughly trained and competent teachers, but schools are no longer compelled to ac
