Shy of the Halter Held Out
BY Serious Girls, Men Turn
For Relief to Chatter of
"Fly-a-Ways."

Not all, but most girls Of today.
seem to think 1t a wise thing to tell
young men when they call what a
nice time she and Bill had ihe other
night out in his car. Or perhaps
when theyNare out walking or riding
a boy passes. and she calls attention
to the fact that she is going to tho
theater with him Friday evening.
a man doesn't want to hear about
who else she Is going out with. for
1t looks as though she Is not salts
fled with him or else she doesn't
know any better. Then he decides
that he won't call again.
Now / find this not 70 be an ex-
traordfnary case. as { have heard
many and many a man SSll the sane
oih story: l am at a loss to know
who comes to call the whole history
of her life anyway.
What a girl should do to have a
man call second time Is to let him
40 most OF the talking. and once in
while tell him a funny story and
allow him to smoke. She will make
him SO comfortable that when it is
time FOR him to leave he will want
to stay. and that will make him
want to call again.
JUST MARRIED..
Burden of Conversation,
Formerly the boy was supposed to
do most. II not all, the talking and
keep the girl entertained, but. I
think you will agree with me that
this has been changed and now the
girl Is supposed to do her share in
keeping up an interesting CONVEX
sation. The boy. at least the first
few times that he meets girl of
the quiet kind, Is generally taxed
pretty heavily for subjects to talk
about and unless he is unusually
brilliant he has "A hard time tndinp

Girls who allow kissing are never
taken seriously. The girl who does
not allow it, though she NAV he
teased about IL, always commands
more respect. and when the time
comes tor boy to look out for a

much more sought after than her in.

Don't say grapefruit" What has
long been known by that name is
henceforth to be called "pomelo." The
United States department OF agricgl-
.ure has decided that the fruit should
be rechristened because its former
name has become so misleading. The
cultivated fruit no longer grows In
clusters, like gigantic punches OF
grapes, as it did in it's uncultivated
state. The fruit grows in groups OF
two or three, but generally singly.

Early Martial Music.

Almost from time immemorial our
soldiers have marched to battle to the
tune OF the drum or the skirling of the
pipes. London Tit-Bits says. Perhaps.
however, the most interesting of the
early records of martial music is that
concerning an episode in 1888, the date
of the battle of Ialidon hill. when the
Englysche mynstrelles beaten their
tators and blewen their trompes, and
pipers pipedene loud and made a great

CLAIMS VILLA AND
 CARRANzA AT PEACE
AGREEMENT GRANTS AMNESTY TO ALL BUT GENERAL VILLA
 AND HIS BROTHER HIPOLlTO.

El Paso.-The Carranza govern ment is now in eontroi of the former Villa state of Chihuahua and the or ganization of the Villa government, including 4,OO0 troops, the cities of Juarez and Chihuahua and all border points will accept the rule of Car ranza.
 An agreement was signed by the Villa generals, Robert Timon, Manual Banda, Lieutenant Colonel Flavanino Paliza and Colonel Eduardo Andalon and Andreas Garcia, the Carranza consul. The agreement grant1 amnes- ty to all but General Villa and his brother Hipolito.
 They reported the result of their conference to General Villa at Chi huahua City.
 Late they had received no reply from General Villa and learned that after receiving their advices Villa gathered 400 or 800 men and left. His whereabouts are unknown It is not improbable that Villa may be prepar- AhS CO ldhO IllC uSiu dSdluSL HIS TOT |, mer organization.
 The surrender of the Villa organl- zation includes about 4,O0O armed men, about To per cent of the rolling stock of the railroads of Mexico and the state of Chihuahua.
 According to officials foreign inter- ests in Villa territory have suffered loss of $50,000,0O0 due to confisca- tion and thefts of ore. cattle and other property and the depreciation of vil- la currency. They charge churches were stripped of their treasures, banks footed and that murder and terror ism reigned.
 Hipolito Villa was taken in charge and brought before officials of the De- partment of Justice. The officials told Colonel Villa that all they would ex- pect was strict compliance with the neutrality laws and that he pledge himself not to participate in revoIu- tionary movements in Mexico.

BIRDS HOLIDAY DAINTIEs
YeIow-Lee Snipe Travels Some 5000 Miles for Christmas Dinner
 Robins Like Holly Berries.

The yellow-leg snipe travels a mat ter of 5000 miles to get his Christ mas dinner. It is pretty nearly the longest journey made annually by any living creature, and the object of it seems to be to procure certain dain- ties in the way of aquatic insects and crustaceans appropriate for holiday fare.
 One might say. however, that the most appropriate of Christmas din. ners is eaten by the robins which at this holiday season feed largely upon the berries of the holly-particular upon the berries of kind of holly called the black alder, which are as bitter as quinine.
 Another bird which has an interest ing Christmas is the mocking bird. He is a planter of the mistletoe ber ries and mistletoe berries contribute largely to his Christmas di-ner. Be- ing particularly fond of them he incl dentally, though without intention, carries the seeds to tree branches where they promptly fasten them selves and sprout In this way the parasitic plant is widely propagated in Texas, which is the principal win ter resort of the mockers.
 The canvasback duck breeds in the far North, from Minnesota to the Arctic circle, in the interior. But the call of Christmas turns 1t southward, and it spends the holidays along the southern Atlantic coast. from the Chesapeake to Cuba. It feeds on vari- ous aquatic plants. but the piece de resistance of it's Christmas dinners is wild celery-a succulent, water veg etable which gives to it's flesh flavor highly appreciated by the epicure.
 The wild Canada goose goes all the way to Mexico in winter. spending Christmas among the lakes in that far southern latitude, where nutritious grasses and water plants are plentiful

DAYS BEFORE CHRISTMAS
When the Joy of Your Riddles Brings Tender Memories of
 Years Ago.

In these strenuous shopping days, writes Louis James, have you caught yourself remembering suddenly, in all sorts of queer, unexpected places, all sorts of queer. half forgotten things Have you remembered how these days before Christmas are the wonderful days in the life of the child, more wonderful days. perhaps, than any that are to come?
 You know that yourself. You can't help recalling how time went by those days before the great day. You re- member how each day seemed some how more wonderful than the one be- fore, each day a prelude of real joy to that first marvellous moment of Christmas morning, when. after a night of little if any sleep. you scram- bled up and stood breathless on the threshold of the room which had been forbidden you all those interminable hours that went before.

FORD PEACE PARTY
 LAND IN NORWAY
BELIEVED EXPEDITION WILL RE- SUIT IN GETTING MEN OUT
 OF TRENCHES SOON

Chr.stiania, Norway-"Every nation in the world will look upon the Amer ican peace pilgrims as taking the in itiative in stopping history's worst war. The landing of the peace expe- dition in Europe will be recorded as one of the most benevolent things the American republic ever did" said Henry Ford to the Associated Press representative on Norwegian soil.
 The steamship Oscar IL, carrying the Ford peace party, arrived after a fourteen days voyage. Delegates ex- pressed displeasure because the yes sel was delayed three days by the British at Kirkwall.
 MT. Ford says he is confident the expedition would result in getting the men out of the trenches before the winter is over. He declared he had in- formation from official sources that his peace plan was looked upon ap- provingly. He added that his motive in coming to Europe is to develop an understanding throughout the world by the time peace sessions are begun at The Hague.
 After holding meetings while cross ing the Atlantic and disagreeing over the question of American prepared ness policy, the 150 peace advocates were anxious to learn what attitude would be adopted toward them by Europe.
 Ixyf Nt,,~tc university professors and an unofficial call made by Albert G. Schmedeman, American minister to Norway, attend ed the first day in Europe.
 Christiania newspapers publish long accounts regarding the Ford expedi- tion, accompanying the stories with cartoons from foreign newspapers.
 Just before the Oscar II reached Christiania the Ford guests held a meeting aboard the ship Samuel Me Cure of New York said that unless the peace pilgrims composed their differences of opinion regarding Pres ident Wilson's preparedness policy it would cause disaster to the expedition. He declared American preparedness was necessary and not related to the peace efforts.
 The Rev. Charles F. Aked of San Francisco maintained it is ridiculous for Americans to urge peace abroad while preparing for war at home
 Finally a resolution declaring the delegates are unanimous for European peace was adopted.

noon; but he couldn't wait. He start ed over the shortcut trail to Durbin- six-mile tramp. There was some thing in the air; thought it was snow. There seemed a terrible silence over the whole woods when Billie left at dawn. That was the last time seed him alive. "Good-by, Uncle Sam!" he shouted from the hill as he waved his hand; and merry Christmas to you; and don't get drunk. Be sure to make good resolutions for the New Year. Good-by!"
 He stopped at the Widow Jones house on his way to Durbin, and she made him drink a cup of hot coffee, which she and the kiddies were hay ing at breakfast Then he told her about the Christmas he expected to spend at home. He was just Dubbling over with joy, and the widow started to cry. At Christmas, she said, the thoughts of the ones that are departed are green in ones memory 1i the holly leaves that grow on the holly tree, and like circle of holly leaves are they entwined in wreath or memory.
 "'Then Billie tried to comfort her, and asked her why she was crying She said that her kiddies wanted to know about Santa Claus because the Paxson children, who went sledding on the hill, told them what Santa was going to bring them, and they asKeu their nav when Santa was coming to them. She told them that he wasn coming; there wasn't going to be any Christmas for them because they were poor
