THE WE'LL BRED GIRL

She doesn't talk loud in pub
lie places.
She does not accept a valu-
able present from any man un-
less she expects to marry him.
She doesn't say she hates
women, and she has some good
true friends among them.
She does not speak of her
mother in a sarcastic way, and
she shows her the loving defer
ence that is her due.
She doesn't want to be man,
and she doesn't try to initiate
him by wearing stiff hats, smok-
ing cigarets and using slang.
She doesn't scorn the use of
the needle and expects some day
to make clothes for very little
people who will be very dear to
her.
She doesn't shove and push to
get the best seat, and she doesn't
wonder why in the world people
carry children in the cars, and
why they permit them to cry.

THE GOSPEL OF CHEER

Learn to laugh-a good laugh
is better than medicine.
Learn to keep your troubles
to yourself-the world is not in
terested in them.
Learn to stop croaking-if you
can't see any good in the world,
keep the bad to yourself.
Learn to hide your pains and
aches under pleasant smiles-no
one cares whether you have
headache, earache or rheuma-
tism.
Don't cry-tears do we'll
enough in novels, but they're
out of place in real life.
Don't spend your time in reg
ulating the conduct of others
live as you think others should
live and you will be pretty near

others live theirs would be
a dull world if everyone lived as
you wanted him.

ACCEPTING THE GIFT

Peace is a gift. 1t belongs to
the Prince of Peace, it is his by
inalienable right, and as such it
can only be secured from him
upon his own terms and upon
his own conditions. It is his
resurrection gift, not to the
world, but to those who believe
on him and follow him; his gift
to the world when, and only
when, the world is willing at
last to accept the gift by owning
him as it's sovereign Lord and
only king and by bowling at
length before him whom it has
for so long despised and re-
jected.

Congress Uneasy
Over Our Affairs
Administration Leaders Urge
Caution in Handling Foreign
Affairs Just at Present

CONGRESS- reassembled Tuesday
in the midst of an international
situation which rival political
leaders admitted Monday night
was one of the most critical that
has confronted the nation. Re
turning members talked of little
but consequences that might re-
suit from the sinking Of the
British steamer Persia in the
Mediterranean with loss OF
American life and strained dip
lomatic relations between the
United States and Austria.
Although administration lead
ers were inclined to proceed eau
tiously and to await positive in
formation, there was a general
feeling of uneasiness among the
senators and representatives
over the gravity Of foreign af-f
fairs.
Grave Questions
Senator Stone, chairman of the
senate foreign relations commit
tee. conferred with Secretary
Lansing at the state department
Monday and will seek a confer
ence with President Wilson be-
fore a meeting is held Wednes-
day to begin consideration of
matters pertaining to the diplo-
matte affairs Of the nation.
Il seems assured that the COM
mit1ee will take up the resolu-
tion submitted by Senator Hoke
Smith, calling for an inquiry in
to Great Britain's interferences
with neutral commerce and the
amendment by Senator Lodge to
investigate destruction of the
Lusitania, and other acts by bel
ligerents resulting in destruc-
tion Of American lives.
''Of course we must consider
those resolutions" said Senator
Stcne last night. ''They are on
the calendar and must be dis
posed of. | do not know the SEN
tinlent of the committee, but [
see no objection to Congress hav-
ing information called for in the
resolution Of Senator Smith or
the amendment by Senator
Lodge. '-l H..
L talked to Secretary Lans-
ing about the sinking of the Per
sia. but we can do nothing with
that until we get all the facts"
Regarding Mexico
Senator Stone also discussed
with Mr.. Lansing the long-pend-
ing Nicaraguan and Colombian
treaties, concerning which there
still is persistent opposition by
some senators, including Repub-
lican members of the foreign
relations committee.
The Missouri senator wants
these treaties disposed of one
way or another. If it is appar-
ent that opposition lis over
whelming, it is proposed to dis
cover this as soon as possible so
that further time may not be
wasted in attempting to force
their ratification.
Another subject of discussion
was the nomination of Henry P.
Fletcher, to be ambassador to
Mexico. Senator Borah, a men,
Der of the committee, will stren-
uolasly oppose Mr.. Fletcher's
