A great many girls complain that they
have no friends. and feel they are most
unjustly treated because they are not
popular in their social sets.
II these girls would ask themselves the
question: why should people like pe7''
instead OF why don't people like me?''
they would get some Information that
would be OF untold heipfulness to them
why should people like us unless we
are friendly, agreeable. CHEEKY. compan-

should. and. as a matter of fact. they

have never known a girl who was
lonely. and friendiess and left out OF
everything who hadn't herself entirely
to blame. Sometimes it's because she is
a natural born cat, one OF those spiteful
spitty creatures who to save their lives
can't help clawing you on your tender

The kind OF girl. you know. who will
take all Of the pleasure out Of your new
ring by saying, what a pretty little
ring. It's wonderful how we'll those cheap
little chip diamonds make up isn't itT''
Or who will congratulate an engaged girl
by telling her that she's glad Tom has
found somebody who was willing to
marry him at last. as he has been re-
fused by every other girl in the set.
Why should a girl who goes through
| life using her tongue like a stiletto. stab

contact. expect to be liked and for people
to want to have her about
Sometimes the unpopular girl is Just
plain selfish. She selves the best of every
thing for herself. She Inonopolizes all
of the men that she can, and when she
meets a new man. she would die before
she would introduce him to another girl.
Now society is run on the give-end-take
plan. and just because the selfish girl
believes that she can always take and
never give. she overreaches herself, and
in the end Miss Piggy is shelved.
Sometimes the reason that a girl has
no friends Is because she Is a spoil sport
She never wants to do what other people
want to do. II the others want to dance.
she wants to skate. II the others want
to play tennis. she wants to go padding,
Or she is one of the finicky kind OF
girls that has to have everything exactly
right before she can enjoy II. She can't
eat unless she can have certain kind Of
food cooked in a particular manner. She
can't sit backwards on a car. or walk
in the sun. or sit in a draught. and she
has to be fused with so much that she
simply isn't worth the trouble.
She's a wet blanket on any jolly little
party, and after an experience or two in
trying to please her. and listening to her
complaints. everybody decides that the
best place for her Is her own home. So
they leave her there.
The real reason. however. that most
friendless girls don't have friends is be-
cause they haven't the friendly spirit
themselves. They want other people to
make all the advances. They expect other
people to so out Of their way to hunt

ROOSEVELT RAPs HYPHENS
Colonel Denounces German-American
Alliance in His Preparedness Ad-
dress at st. Louis.

st. Louis, June Moral treason to
the United States was charged by
Theodore Roosevelt, in an address de-
hvered here today, against German
Americans who seek. to make their
governmental representatives act in
the interests of Germany rather than
this country. He characterized the
German-American Alliance as IAN anti
American alliance" but added that he
believed that its members mot only do
not represent. but scandalously mis-
represent" the great majority of real
Americans of German origin
Urging the motto, America for
Americans" for ali Americans, wheth-
Or they were born here or abroad, the

salvation of our people lies in having
a natiOnalized and unified America,
ready for the tremendous tasks of both

colonel said, mo matter from what

uers and mischief makers who would
seek to divide them along lines of
creed, or birthplace or of national
origin"

The cheese industry throughout
western Canada today is in & highly
fourishing condition and is bound In
a very short time to become much
more important. The war has created
q great demand for that article. and
its use abroad has given it a lot OF
useful advertising The article known
as Canadian cheese is Low sought not
only by the soldier in the trenches.
but by the ordinary civilian consumer,
Who having used 1t, Is quick TO sp-
preciate its value This means that
after the war there Will be a demand
created for it that would not other
wise have been. Up to the present
the war needs have limited the local
supply, but with the increased effort
that is now being put forth it is hoped
that this will be met. AS q matter OF
course the prices are high. and the
farmers who contribute to the cheese
factories are making money
The cheese season is now fully open
and there is every prospect OF an ex-
cellent year because the high price
which obtained last year will undoubt-
edly be maintained this season. West
ern Canada has all the natural re-
sources for the making OF cheese, the
feed and the cool nights, two things
essential, and in time it is bound to
become one of the finest cheese couR-
tries Of the continent
The lower foothills of Alberta. used
only at the present time as ranges or
for no purpose, will in time produce
cheese in great quantities. and doubt
less viii soon equal the famous up
lands of Denmark
The cool nights mean the better
keeping of milk and cream and
cheese, and that is a great thing for
the industry, especially when con-
bined with possibilities Of cattle feed
such as exist on the long slopes from
the Rockies eastward
The hog market. which may be
cIassed as an adjunct of farming, is
an exceedingly good one. and the low
cost at which the feed can be pro
duced, coupled with the high prices
realized, make this industry very prof

Suffer Heavy Loss.

London, June 2-The Germans have
switched their offensive from the re-
gion of LIE Mort Homme, northwest OF
Verdun, to the sector between Thia-
mont and Vaux, northeast of the fort
ress, and have succeeded in entering
French first line trenches between

The attack was made over front Of

Teutons, according to Paris.
London, June 1.-The French troops

ROOSEVELT At KANSAS CITY
Thousands Hear Former President in
Great Address on Preparedness
Appeals to Americans.

Kansas City, May 31.-The greatest
Memorial Day grafton, it has been
said, was that Pericles delivered over
the first slain of the Peloponnesian
war.
A greater was SPOKEN yesterday aft
ernoon in Kansas City by Theodore
Roosevelt to the thousands who were
fortunate enough to get into Conven-
ton Hall.
Pericles was encouraging nation
in the midst of war that was to last
twenty-seven years. Roosevelt was
pleading with a nation to live up to
its ideals in crisis precipitated by
the worlds greatest war.
'T ask" Roosevelt said, that we in
this generation prove ourselves the
spiritual heirs both of the men who
wore the blue and the men who wore
the gray. 1 speak to, and on behalf
of, a Nation of freemen. Freemen, it
to be freemen, do not have 10 hire
other men to do their fighting. No ma
ton is really great, no race is entitled
to a permanent position of leadership
or Of equality on this earth, unless its
sons are willing to die at need for
great ideals. In the long run the
country must be worth living in if it
is to be worth dying for"
Fifteen thousand persons heard
Colonel Roosevelt, and more than if
teen thousand were turned away.
Appealing, ne explained, to "the
spirit of thoroughgoing Americanism
in all our people," the former presi-
dent declared that those who assert
that there is no danger of the United
States ever being attacked are either
ignorant or forgetfuI of the multitude
of examples which show how interna-
tionaI conflicts arise, and that cit is
likely that if we are not strong
enough to maintain our rights, IN
Guiding the assertion of the Monroe
doctrine the United States viii be
subject to aggressions which it would
be obliged to resent, or else abandon
its national greatness.
''This is one of the great years Of de-
cision in our national history" he
said. 1.-The way in which we now de-
eide will largely determine whether
we are to go forward in righteousness
and power or backward in degrade
ton and weakness. We are face to
face with the elemental facts OF right
and wrong, of force or feeb1eness. Ac.
cording to the spirit in which we face
these facts and govern our actions, we
shall enjoy a growing national life OF
suffer a lingering national decay"

jOrity of Is Votes.
BIG VICTORY FOR PRESIDENT
Stood Firmly Throughout a Long and
Bitter Fight-First Jew on the
Supreme Bench.

lette, Norris and Poindexter, voted
with the Democratic majority and Sen
ators Gronna and Clapp would have
done so, but were paired with Sena-
tors Borah and Kenyon. The negative
vote of Senator Newlands was a COM
plete surprise to the senate and the
Nevada senator, recognizing that his
action had aroused comment, later
made public formal explanation
''I have a high admiration for Mr..
Brandeis as a pubIicist and propa-
gandist of distinction" said Senator
Newlands. 81 DC not regard him as
a man of judicial temperament and for
that reason I have voted against his
confirmation"
Many Senators Absent.
OF the senators who were paired
many were absent because of the ap-
preaching Republican national con-
vention in Chicago. All absent sena-
tors had arranged to be paired in the
vote. However, except Senators Clark
Of Arkansas and Mclean of Connect
cut, Senator Sherman of Illinois was
paired with Senator Thompson of Kan
sas, but released the Kansas senator
so that he might vote
The nomination of Mr.. Brandeis was
sent to the senate on January %. 1t

tee and Immediately flood of protests
against confirmation and memorials in
favor thereof began to pour in.

Harvard university in 1877 and began
the practice of law in Boston after ad-
mission to the bar in 1878. He prob
ably will take the oath Ct office on
