B - & ■A HJ The one hundred and fiftieth annivertary of the adoption of the Declaration of Independence will be observed by the Sesquicentennial International Exposition, which open« at Philadelphia, June 1, 1926. The Start of the Revolution The difficulties between England and her American Colonies which led to the Revolutionary War and the adoption of the Declaration of Inde pendence, the one hundred and fiftieth anniversary of which will be observed) next year by the Sesquicentennial In ternational Exposition at Philadelphia, can be traced back to 1733. In that year the British Parliament passed the first of a series of Acta which so tried the patience of the col onists that they began thinking of separate political existence. The first Act, passed in 1773, was known as the Molasses Act. It placed a tax of six pence a gallon on mo lasses. It was followed by the Sugar Act of 1764, placing a tax on sugar, and a year later by the Stamp Act, which ordered a duty on all legal docu-J ments, phamplets, newspapers, adver tisements and almanacs. The Stamp Act was repealed In 1766, and in 1767 the passage of the Townshend Act placed a tax on tea, glass, paper and painters' materials, This "Xct particularly incensed the Colonies. It provided that some of the proceeds would pay the salaries of colonial governors and judges, and ordered the trial of cases growing out of collecting of revenue to be heard , . • . ... . .. .1 before judges without the presence of juries. At this time Connecticut sent a representative to England to protest against "Taxation without Represen tation." Virginia passed a resolution against the Acts, and Patrick Henry delivered his famous speech, "Give me liberty or give me death." The people of the Colonies suffered under these various forms of taxation, but boycotts against taxed articles became wide-spread. Then, on Decem ber 16, 1773, a party of men disguised as Indians boarded a British vessel in Boston harbor and emptied its car go of tea into the bay. On October 16, 1773, Philadelphia had its own tea The NEW COUPE' One of the Most Popular Personal Cars Ever Produced SCHOLARSHIPS TO UNIVERSITY TO BE GIVEN DESERVING H. S. STUDENTS t ' / -mm I 5 ®, W. A. Clark, Jr., of Butte, has agreed to pay every year beginning the present term the tuition, board and room of five promising high school graduates who attend the State Uni versity of Montana. These scholar ships are awarded by a committee composed of the university faculty and three others nominated by the presi dent of the university and appointed by Mr. Clark. The scholarships are tenable for only one year and the holder is not eligible for a second year. The first holders of the Clark scholar ships are Ralph Olson of Butte, Doug las Taylor of Hamilton, Lester Jones of Miles City, Lawrence Sweetman of Billings, and Clarence Hagen of Stev ensville. The scholars are chosen on the basis of all-around activity in the high school. Personal application is un necessary although the committee of awards considers all such applications. Athletic coaches and high school prin ciples suggest prominent and active high school students and from the in formation thus received the committee makes its selection. In addition to athletic ability the the candidate must give promise of being able to successfully carry uni versity work. For this reason the committee has refused to consider men who graduate in the lowest third of their high school classes. The scholarships cover only actual living expenses exclusive of clothes and student supplies. The tuition of the holders is paid directly to the uni versity as well as the board and room of those who live in the university res idence halls. Holders of scholarships living elsewhere are paid an amount equivalent to board and room at the men's dormitory. The committee of award is com posed of Dr. J. P. 8. Marshall and H. L. Bickenbach of Missoula, Fred For man of Butte, and President C. H. Clapp, Dean R. H. Jesse, and W. E. Schreiber of the university faculty.
