The conference committees of congress should decide
the question of Colonel Roosevelt raising division for
service in France today Should this clause be placed in
the BILL it will still have to pass through the presidents
hands, and is claimed he is not in favor of it. This not
through any personal feeling but because the military
board opposes it. He has, far followed the advice of
this board in all military affairs and is therefore likely
he may refuse to sign the bill with this proviso in it, If
he does sign it it will be because he realizes the need Of
haste in getting army together and so might refuse to
cause delay by vetong the bill and having it all to be
threshed out by congress again Congress has given him
about all he has asked and he may concede this much in
return The consensus of opinion among the people of
the United States is that the colonel should be allowed to
raise his division and that those who want to serve with
him should be given the opportunity to do so.

He did not recognize this as an ex-

THAT, my dear Margie. is every
mans idea of the Well Beloved,
from the cradle 10 the grave. As
soon as he is able to realize love. a
boy loves his mother. Many of
them state sturdily that they are
going to marry their mothers when
they grow up. Later II is their
nurse maid or governess that ap-
peals to them. Then the little girl

share their lollypops and jam tarts.

men and most boys invest an

They do not realize her peculiar
