THINGS THAT COUNT
ALONG LIFE'S WAY

It isn't such a hard thing, after all,
to smile or at least look passably
pleasant, and in a cheerful tone: OF
voice say Good morning" or Good
afternoon" or How do you do?" to
the people you meet, even if you
cont know them very well.
When done in friendly sort Of
way it doesn't constitute crime to
thus pass kindly greeting, even II
you only know people by sight.
Some day some community some
where is going to take as its slogan
"The Home of Friendly Folks" 1t
will be a good business place, for
nothing helps more than the friendly
spirit
You know how it is when you go
into a store where all the clerks seem
sort of glad to see you; where 1t
doesn't appear to be much trouble
to show goods and where, if they
don't happen to have what you want,
YOU are not made to feel as if you
had committed crime or launched
an insult.
And you know how it is when
some sullen, sulky, sad-eyed sonora
shadow looms up like a snow-cloud
behind the counter and makes you
long for the north pole of the peni-
tentiary!
Yes, the friendly spirit has more
to do with dollars and cents than
most people imagine. 1t is the force
behind many a big bank account and
the secret of much success.
Also, it is bloodvkin to happiness
and home joys and lot of other
things you cannot buy in the shops.
Oh, I know it is tony to perk your
upper lip and swish around like a
superior brand of human being! But
when you get out in the trenches or
mixed up in some common cause for
the benefit of humanity, you begin
20 get a proper perspective and you
find that the friendly spirit, as ex-
pressed in the friendly word and act
and attitude, is about the biggest
thing going.
Then you begin to see that the
thing which counts is the thing that
beats beneath mans vest or under
the left side of his sweater
And it is the thing that counts all
the way through, from the humblest
home in the least-known village
street to the biggest mansion in the
most famous of avenues.
It is the basic thing, for friendli-
ness is one of the fundamentals, and
the man who has not learned this
lesson and put 1t in practice has not
only lost lot himself, but been a
means of helping others to lose.
Don't be afraid to show your heart
Don't be afraid to speak it or look II
or act it.-Exchange.

This method of supplying informa

publication of estimates which might
not be borne out by actual subscrip

newspapers and liberty loan commit

Count Revertata's private residence
in Freiburg the count being distantly
related to him.
Major Armand addressed to Count
Revertata q question as to whether
discussions between France and Aus,
tria were possible. Thus the initiative
for these discussions was taken from
the French side. 4"
Count Revertata reported to- the
Austro- hungarian foreign minister
that this question had been put on in
strlctions of the French government
and the minister thereupon requested
Count Revertata to enter into dis.
cussiOns with the French cOnflden-
tial agent and III the course OF these
discussions to establish whether by
this means basis for bringing about
general peace could be secured.
Some More Hun Version.
"On August 1928 Count ReVertat ia
entered into discussions with Major
Armand which. however, as Premier
Clemenceau quite correctly declares,
yielded no result. The negotiations
tEereupon were broken of.
"The Clemenceau version that the
discussions between Revertata and
4 rmand were proceeding on his entry
into Office is incorrect. Not until Jan.

Instructions from .Clemenceau, again
get into touch with Revertata. The
thread had been broken in August,
1917, and was therefore again taken
IN BY Clemenceau himself in January
1918.
Recent Discussions
From this fresh contact there re-
suited the discussions referred to In
the official communication of April 4.
1918, 1t is, however, correct that Count
Reyertata handed to Major Armand
on February 23. 1918, the memoran'
dunn regarding which Premier Glenn
enceau only cites the first sentence
and which confirms that in the discus
sions with Armand. which had taken
place in August, 1917. Revertata was
charged with the task, OF finding. out
whether proposals were obtainaple

offer Of a basis for a general peace

'eWILFUL" CLAUSE INSERT

Washington, D. c., April S.-Anothec
day of lively debate in the senate OH
the sedition BILL which would punish
disloyal utterances and attempts to
hinder the army draft and liberty
bond campaigns, resulted in the adopt
ion of amendments designed to meet
the objection of Senators that the
measure might prevent legitimate crit
icism of the war.
The changes were in the clause pen
alizing 'disloyal, profane, scurrilous,
abusive or contemptuous language
directed at the form of government,
constitution, flag or uniforms Of the
nation and calculated to bring them
into contempt or scorn.'
Senator Thomas, of Colorado offer
ed an amendment to provide that such
acts should be "wilful," and Senator
Borah Of Idaho, proposed to subst!-
tute the word intended for 'calcu-
lated" There were objections that
convictions would be; difficult to sec
ure under such language, but both am
endments were approved, that Of Sen
