 The Red Cross record of Mrs. Jane Clark, mother of Mrs. John T Spickett, Mrs. Geo Burford, and Mrs. J. B. Caro. is one that may well be envied by many a younger woman. Mrs. Clark will be eighty years old in February. but has knit. ted ten sweaters for the Red Cross in as many weeks. She is said to have remarked that she could make two sweaters each week, were 1t not that her family consider that amount of work too much of tax upon her strength

There was q murmur from the on

The general bowed smilingly; then,
taking Alaire's arm, he waved the
idlers out Of his path with a magnih-

When, later In the day, Mrs. Austin
came to say good-by and thank the
Mexican for his courtesies, he humbly
begged permission to pay his respects
that evening at her hotel, and she
could not refuse.

GERMAN TREATIES INVALID

TON DISREGARD.
Member of Foreign Relations Com.
mittee Confident U. s. VIII Use
Every Effort to Win.

Washington, d. C.-The abrogation
of all existing treaties between the
United Sttaes and Germany, because
OF Germany's "gross violations In
sinking American ships and taking Of
American lives" was advocated by
Senator Salisbury, member Of the
foreign relations committee and pres
ident pro tempore of the senate.
Since Russia's revolution, Salisbury
declared, the war has really resolved
itself into a battle between democracy
and autocracy. 1t Is plain, he de-
clared, where the United States duty
lies in the struggle.
Assuming that congress shall de-
clare war or declare state Of war
exists" said Salisbury, there should
be no hesitation of any kind in doing
what we can to bring an end to the
war upon which we then would enter.
I'VE must have no slackers. We
must give the entente powers all the
help they want in money and men.
I'VE could send only small expedi-
tons at first, but in the end we should
send million American soldiers to
the European trenches of the entente
allies.
"In the meantime let us put forth
every effort to give the allied powers
every ounce of our industrial and eco
nomic help"
