Besides, one of the conditions of the jaward is that the recipient come to | Christiana and deliver an address on jpeace. Right now, custodians of the | Nobel fund are: said to hold, would |be the best time of all for President rapnblican- in inonity eleaders| | paiean to deliver an address on peace. When President Roosevelt was 9 | awarded the prize the condition re- °\ lating to the address in Christiana. was waived on account of.the presi- dent’s duties in Washington. But in Ison’s case it is believed the com- sion in charge of warding the prize porta consider that the President could find time on his European trip |to step up here and receive the medal and the $36,000 in person. Alfred Bernhard: Nobel, Swedish scientist left a fortune of $8,000,- '000, interest on which he stipulated should be experided each year in pro- - viding awards for five persons con- | tributing most valuable work in. ad- vancing medicine, physics, idealistic literature, chemistry, and the promo- tion of peace. Elihu Reot and Theo- | dore Roosevelt are the Americans who have won the peace prize. Not all of the five prizes are awarded every vear, because trustees of the fund snend so much of the income for ad- ministrative purposes that there is not enough left to provide prizes of suitable size. However, the Scandinavian’ are of © | opinion that $36,000 and a gold med- al ought to be sufficient inducement to bring the President north during his stay in Europe. 1 Enroll for French and _ Spanish January 7 at Casper Business Col- lege. 1-4-1t 4 —_—___ Liberty Bonds wanted.
