Reflections Of q Thankful Psssimist
Did you ever think. when it's rain
ing and showing at the same time and
the streets form dainty swamp Of
slush and the chills are running up
and down and back, how very much
you have to be thankful for? On such
occasions look in your empty coal bin
and fold your arms in content
True, the coal bin is dark and dank.
But think how much blacker it would
be If the coal were there!
It's the little things that make or mar
ones happiness; therefore the less coal
one has the happier he should be.
For such Is logic.
A noted philosopher has said. "The
coal bin is has-been."
Shivers are the very soul Of comfort.

French and English, as Is customary with
such announcements But 1t is announced
officially that the conference will have three
| languages-French, English and Spanish

this is the first conference ever held in the

] America. Practically French will be the
| language Of this as it has been Of all pre-
ceding conferences, as it Is the language
Of diplomacy the language that will be un-
derstood by most of the conferrees.
Along with the tentative programme was
sent out an earnest invitation 10 the con
ferrees to suggest subjects for discussion
subjects in which they were interested, and
which their hosts might have overlooked.
After a preliminary dihidcnce, such sug-
gestions came in quite freely, and week by
week the programme is changing In con
! fCTmity with them. As IL now stands 1t
includes many matters Of international I'M
pCrtance, and some which recent events
