SUBSTITUTE FOR
WINDOW SHADES.

To economize on window shades,
the upper rooms of a house may be
fitted with shades of white cotton,
having the selvage on one side and
a. very fine hem on the other. By the
addition of a little glue, size or gum
arabic to the starch they can be made
very equal to ordinary shades Of Hol-

readily laundered when soiled.

made possible through the sale OF

in the way of the campaign is stat

GREAT HUN ARMY
AS UNCONQUERED

Paris. Dec 1.-THE fact that the
German people are greeting the re-
turning army as unconduered and
hail il as having defended their ma
tive soil against invasion for four
years. has raised the question in the
French press as to why the allies
failed to make disarmament and de-
mobilization n condition OF the armis-
tice.
General Cherfils. military critic Of
L'Echo de Paris. absolves Marshal
Foch of all blame in this connection,
saying the terms Of the armistice were
the work of the diplomats.
'If we had left the Austrian ON :
peror his army. which was the only
means of keeping order. he might
have become the keystone of a new
federation. including the German
catholics of Austri, who are now at
tracted to the project of greater
Germany" Does not our rigor toward
Austria cause us remorse?
ION the other hand. it appears that
the Germans exaggerated the dan
gers of the Bolshevik disorders. Per-
haps 1t was those dangers, as rep
resented by them that caused us to
judge it prudent not to deprive Nhc
Germans of this means of defense
against disorder of checking the con-
tagion of anarchy.
IF this is so. then the astute Teu-
tons have again tricked our incurable
candor.

ADULTS OF TR|ER ARE
BITTER TOWARD YANkS
So Far. There Has Been No Show OF
Hostility Toward American Army
Occupation, However.
BY DAMON RUNYON.

With the American Army of Occu-
patton (by Courier via Luxembourg
and Nancy. Doc. 2.-Under the head
Of Local." the Trier (Treves) news
paper today had the following item:
The American troops arrived in
the city yesterday"
That was all. All day the streets
OF the town resounded to the tread
OF Dickman's soldiers passing through
on the way to the Rhine. Americans
are now so numerous In Trter and
in the towns beyond they are losing
their novelty to the German civil
population.
General A. H. Smith. American
civil governor of the occupied dis
tricts, is not recognizing the new sol
diers and workmaus government as
yet. He called upon the old burgo-
master of the town. who almost cried
over the Unexpectedly decent treat
ment of the people by the Americans.
AS long as the civilians conduct them
selves decorously, the American re-
gime will be confined largely to mill
tary policemen regulating the tranhc.
So far. there has not been the
slightest ripple OF hostility The
older people are reported to be bitter.
but the younger elements accept the
new order without resentment.
Notices were printed in the news
papers OF Trier today by the soldiers
and workmen's council warning the
people against demonstrations while
the Americans are in their midst.
also threatening punishment for over
charging by shopkeepers for supplies.
General Smith says reports from
the surrounding country indicate that
there Is abundant food. but that GER
tain articles, such as fats. are Ak
trcmely scarce.
Good meals are ohtainable at hotels
for prices lower than those charged
in France and Luxembourg. However.
there are many little evidences of
privations. Mothers say there has
been no milk for children for long
time Many youngsters are wearing
shoes with wooden soles

LOOK FOR NO HITCH IN
ARMISTICE EXTENSION

Washington, Dec. 6.---The state de-
partment today expressed coincidence
that there would be no hitch in the

men stated that within week after
the signing of the terms II became
a foregone conclusion that the enemy
forces would be unable to deliver In

AS the armistice must continue dur

sumed here that IL the cessation of
hostilites is continued for another

expiration OF that period to renew
the agreement.
Reports received here that Berlin
has been notified by the allies that
she must at once meet the occupa-
ton expenses of the allied armies to

penses are said to include SIS, 500, 900

principle that the central powers
