Willing to Yield All But Sow

ATHENS, December 6, via

Tell the American people that
the government of Greece has
only two aims, to safeguard the
sovereignty of Greece and not to
abandon neutrality. no matter
for what reason she may be urged
to do so, no matter what induce
ments or pressure are brought to
bear, said Premier Skouloudis to

ent in an interview today.
On Way to Settlement.
II think I may say" continued tho
premier. that the air. sureharHcd for
months with misunderstandtnss.i is at

are beginning to understand that while
we are immovable on the two heads
just stated, we are disposed In every
other respect to give material express
sion to the feeling every Greek has
toward France, Great Britain and Rus
sa dating from Navarino.
Two points which caused the recent
friction are now in the way of ami
cable settlement. AS far back as No

ateness of military diplomatists
seeking to arrange the details of a
situation essentially military and of
which they understood little.
For Military Conference.
Therefore, I proposed a conference
between the military authorities on
either side authorized to study the
necessities of the situations and report
on them, giving the Greek governme mt
and the entente diplomatists the bene-
fit of their conclusions, from which a
settlement could then be reached"

She is being strongly encouraged in

Church Music.

Such is our nature, that even the
best things, and most worthy OF our
esteem, do not always employ and de-
tain our thoughts in proportion to
their real value. unless they be set Oh
and greatened by some outward cir
cumstances, which are fitted to raise
admiration and surprise in the breasts
Of those who hear or behold them.
And this good effect is wrought In US
by the power Of sacred music To it
we, in good measure, owe the dignity
and solemnity Of our public worship
Church music, when decently ordered,
may have as great uses in this army
Of supplicants rs the sound OF the
trumpet has among the host OF the
mighty men It equally rouses the
courage. equally gives life. and vigor.
and resolution, and unanimity to these
holy assailants.-Francis Atterhury.
