point, bore a hole through the wall Of
the hut directly in line with the pulley

lower ends to. The screw-eyes must
be very carefully located, so that the

The policy advocated by the most
influential men In the English world

well trained delegation to Berlin. and
then withdraw gracefully. The rea.
sons behind this policy lie In the be.

Of their founders, which was to create

had the opposite effect.

Mr.. Thompson hays Nickalls for

In conclusion, Mr.. Thompson
