AdOice to Girls
By Betty :Brogn

Dear Betty Brown am in love
with a young man two years my
senior, who seems to think more OF a
friend of mine than he does of me.
This girl and | are good friends and
| can't ask her to have nothing to do
with him, but as she is nue. more
attractive than |, | feel that she has
the advantage. Willie is always very
nice to me, but somehow | feel that
when he is in her presence he is very
much interested What am | to do?
"Razo."
If the young man seems TO care
more for your friend than for you the
best thing for you to do is to try to
convince yourself that you are not in
love with him after ALL 1t may seem
very hard at first but you Will be sur
prised to find how very soon you will
begin to consider him as just one of
your boy friends. In the meantime,
be as nice to him and your girl friend
as you can; don't show that YOU are
jealous of her and perhaps in the end
your sweet disposition and kindness
will triumph over the advantage you
seem to think she has.

HIGHER COURT
 DEGREES DEATH
 FUR BASEMENT
Republican A. p. Leased Wirel

LONDON, July IS-Without hearing the attorneys for the crown. the court of criminal appeal today dismissed Sir Roger Easements appeal from the verdict of the lower court which found him guilty of treason for which Wis count Reading, the lord chief justice, sentenced him to death.
 For a day and half. Alexander Sul- livan, Sir Rogers counsel, argued be- fore the court, quoting many author ities in favor of his contention that the offense of treason depended upon whether accused dwelt under the pro- tection of the king and that the crime could not be committed without the realm He abandoned his other points in regard to the lord chief justices definition of the offense,
 As soon as MT Sullivan had con- cluded his argument the court retired to consider whether the attorneys for the crown would be called on to reply. It soon decided to the contrary. which indicated that the appeal had gone against Sir Roger. who was present during the argument and when judg- ment was given.
 A further appeal to -the house of lords Is possible only if the attorney general gives certificate that the de- cision of the court of criminal appeal ! involves a point of law so exception ally important that it is desirable in the public interest that still higher court should deal with it.

 Screening themselves as much as possible by little clumps of mesquite the Americans returned fire and by the time the reserves reached the river to reinforce them, they had driven the Mexicans back to their horses Be- fore reaching the picket line. however, the militiamen assert, one of the Mex jeans stumbled and fell into a clump of grease weed and did not arise.

 Later, upon receipt of Captain James F. Hickey's report, General Bell de- clined to comment upon the shooting other than to say that such incidents are bound to happen" He added that te had heard that smugglers had been operating along the river in the Is land district and that it was to at { tempt to prevent this that he had de- tailed the Massachusetts company. Captain Hickey's report pointed out that the firing had been begun by a party of three Mexicans who came to the river bank afoot and who, when the guardsmen returned their fire, were reinforced by about dozen horsemen

 The emperor then dwelt on what he said he regarded as one of the most dangerous tendencies of the time-one which might deprive the German na- tion of the spiritual benefit of the war, namely, the tendency to find fault, to complain, to criticise.
 'I often ponder how this tendency can be cured" he said. Certainly not by repression. or laws or orders. The remedy cannot come from outside of us. It must come from within There must be peace in our hearts; then we will be strengthened for bad days, and what is more difficult. for good days.
 The men who are now in the trenches will return home different men spiritually than when they left. Impress upon them that they must re- tain in the future the thoughts which fill them now.
 Everybody must admit that our nation is great. that it is without com plaint or hesitation, sacrificing every thing for a great cause. This is an in- spiration derived from God Give the men in the trenches my greeting and at the same time tell them how impor- l tant it is that they keep firm reliance in God"

AMSTERDAM, (Via London), July 19.-The speech the German emperor recently made to gathering of army chaplains at main headquarters is re- ported in the Vossiche Zeitung by Chaplain pr. Ott.
 Tt is time of sitting" said the emperor "The world war is separat- ing the chaff from the wheat. You gentlemen are given the task of teach ing the German nation to take things seriously and to accept the present as time of trial. It is important to un- derstand that life is a trial. We need practical christianity to bring our lives in harmony with the personality of our Lord. We must live simply ac- cording to his acts and deeds.
 Gentlemen, how fascinating and marvelously manifold is His personal ity. We must study it thoroughly; we must live with the Lord.
 Suppose Christ entered at this mo- ment through wonder door Could we look into His face? Going to church once week is not enough. We must make Him the ideal of our practical life: we must determine to live ac- cording to His teaching. You must bring sharply before us the vision of God, who. perhaps as the judge, is now

AMERICANS TO FILE OBJECTION

WASHINGTON. July 1S.-lnforma- ton gathered in an investigation which has been in progress for several weeks probably will be incorporated by the state department in. vigorous representations to the London foreign office objecting to the placing of ln- dividuals and firms domiciled in the United States upon the black list pro- mulgated under the trading with the enemy act.
 Although the British government in it's last communication to the United States upon the subject declared the act was purely domestic legislation to restrict tLe activities and trade of persons under British jurisdiction the investigation made by the state department is said to have convinced the officials that in reality that 1t operates to restrain American com merce
 The departments investigation has been conducted in various sections of the world. A mass of data has been obtained. In Siam one American firm was informed that it would ap- pear upon the black list if it had business dealing with a German firm.
 Publication of blacklist for America came as no surprise to the state department, which has been watching the situation closely. Al though withholding formal commept until officially notified of the devel- opment, many officials are known to feel that it is no concern of Great Britain's if firms in the United States or British branches abroad desire to trade with German firms in other countries and that while Great Britain might have the right to specify what merchandise should be carried by her | own ships, she has no right to take discriminatory action against the American concerns because of the l business they do.
 This position it is said by those who hold it. is amply backed by pre- ! cedent, Great Britain herself having made objections to attempts to injure the trade of an enemy at the ex- pense of a neutral. These officials regard it as clearly established by 1 international law that the output of a | German concern or even Gel"
