Germany, unpl the “war was over, was in possession of the Shantung pemng.ula, ‘“inhabited by about 35,000,000 Chinese. She had secured it by conquest. When the peace treaty was in progress, Shantung ‘was given to Japan and not back to China. This action has been condoned by many adherents of the| ‘treaty. It is even argued that if such action hadn’t be_en taken, ‘Japan would have refused to join the league and might have ultimately joined Germany in an alliance. . g That “self determination” proposition must have got lost in _the shuffle in this case. . st gl o b NORMAL DORMITQRY A NECESSITY A.

From results. of the first enrollment of the summer term, which opened a few weeks ago, the attendance at the fa]] term will be in full keeping with the splendid attendance during the sumn:er. . ] !
