CHILE ACCEPTS
 PERU'S APOLOGY
Learns Neighbor Nations Officials Were Misin- formed About Al
 legged Outbreaks.

New York, Nov. 27.---The diplomatic break between Peru and Chile has been ended by an apology on the part of the Peruvian government. Author ized announcement to this effect was ma , last night by Carlos Castro Ruiz, Chilean Consul General in New York, who said he had been emTtOw- cred to make the announceA ent in a cable message which he received late in the afternoon from the Chilean Foreign Minister.
 All of Ahe difficulties between the governments, which caused mutual recall of consular representatives the day before, Senor Ruiz stated, had been composed. Senor Ruiz said he had been authorized to make known that the Peruvian officials admitted i that in making public reports of out breaks against their citizens in 1quIque and Antofososta, Chile, they had acted on transformation. This | information, he said, was furnished by the Peruvian Consul at Iquique. That officials authority has been cancelled and he has been recalled.
 ! Peru's apology, sent from Lima yes- | terday, Senor Ruiz said was wholly | BdIlSIdCLOTy IO Jle NAllliedH and brought the misunderstanding to an end"
 l Messages received from Santiago Chile, yesterday, Seno- Ruiz added, denied reports that there had been Anti-Peruvian demonstrations through out Chile. These messages stated, ac- corCing to the Consul General, that
 dismissal of the Peruvian envoy at Iqulque had provoked in Peru cer- tain agitation that determined my ; government to authorize it's consuls Yin P-ru to return home if the ctrcum-
 stances justified"
 Steps already have been taken by
 Chile, Senor Ruiz stated, to watch the frontier and prevent Peruvian revolu- tionists from receiving arms or am-
 intuition from Peruyians resident in
 Chile.
 Active measures also had been
 taken by the Chilean government he
 said, to assist Peru in maintaining a
 stable government, despite a border
 dispute between the two governments

RESENT ITALIAN OCCUPATION

London, Nov. 27.-The carrying out of the provisions of the Italian-Aus. trian armistice on the eastern and northeastern Adriatic has aroused much friction and jealousy on the part of the Jugo slav populations,who ascribe to Italy the intention of per- manently occupying these regions which are virtually identical with those assigned to Italy by the Allied agreement of 1915. The Jugo Slavs contend that the occupation should have been by mixed Allied forces and not solely by Italians.
 The Italian occupation of F1ume has been followed by a strong proteSt to the Entente powers from the Croa- tian National Council at Agram. It is reported that at some points the occupation led to regrettable incidents between the Italians and the Jugo Slave, and to these points mixed forces have since been sent.

SOUTHERN NEW
 ENGLAND WILL GIVE DINNER
Telephone Operators To Have Thanksgiving
 Feast Tonight.

A Thanksgiving dinner, with turk and. all trimmings, for 20 cents! Can you beat 1t?
 Most folks who have turkey, at TO cents the pound, for dinner at home, Thursday, will have a right to con sider themselves as of the favored class. For If turkey has been luxury in other years, it is even more so this year. Then too, the wise men who take their families to some hotel for the holiday repast, and this practice Is growing as an economical time-saving and labor saving meas ure, will find this year that the din ner check will put a large dent in Q good sized bank roll, said dent being measured by the number of persons | in the bill payers party. Too many of us fear a breakdown under the financial strain which would follow an order for whole i turk to grace the family board, to i place such an order.
 But with all the general complaint, against the high cost of living, and l particularly against the high cost of turkey, there is one class of daily workers who will probably have two turkey dinners, with all the trim min's, this week.
 These favored ones are the tele- phone operators of the Southern New England Telephone Co.,, in this city. They will be given an old-fashioned Thanksgiving dinner on Wednesday at the restaurant maintained by the company for the convenience and also financial gain of the telephone operators. The financial part of this will be better understood when it is for operators will cost twenty cents
 each.
 Twenty cents, not s1.20 nor $2.20
 but just plain 20 cents, which, to droE
 from the sublime to the ridiculous. is
 the price per pound of beef kidney
 and no part of beef carcass is
 cheaper.
 And here is the Telephone com,
 pany's 20 cent dinner for it's opera
 tors. Tomato soup, as is tomato
 soup, prepared, like the balance 0,
 the menu, by the culinary experts working in the Telephone Co.'S res
 taurants. This course relished b! the diners, they will be served : strong mans portion of turkey ant
 potatoes, with cranberry sauce to ado
 zest to the dish.
 Then there will be side dishes O ' Hubbard squash, turnlps, onions an,
 trays of crisp, golden celery will b. l placed at the disposal of the diners. Whoever manages to do full justic to all of these things, and can, com fortably carry something more, vii be wholly welcome to large cut o pumpkin pie, with tea, coffee O milk. And at the happy end of tn dinner, the satisfied operator steps U and pays her 20 cents to the cash = fer.
 The same dinner in hotel wi cost anywhere from s1.5o and $2.5( :, according to the hotel and the qual ity of silver with which you eat an
 the value of the china from Whic f your food is served. But the foo
 itself will be no better nor will it b n more tastily prepared.

Congress recently passed a law
providing for the communicating Of
residences where needed for ship

must provide homes for them. We
should not allow them to be- charged

we do, the government may take the

MEANING OF NAME DECEMBER
Twelfth Months Title Derived From
Latin Word "Decem," When There
Were Only Ten Periods.

The name Of December Is no Longer
appropriate. for 1t is derived from ''de-
cem," the Latin word meaning ''ten,"
declares a writer. The name was first
applied by the Romans when the year
was divided into ten months, with the
addition Of supplementary days to
complete the period required for
revolution Of the earth around the
sun.
When the calendar of Romulus was
amended in 713 B. G. by Numa Pom.
pilius and the year was divided into
twelve months December became the
twelfth month, but retained it's original
name. The Emperor Commodus, who
reigned In the second century, attempt
ed to change the name of December to
Amazonius, in honor of fair favorite
Of that name, whom he had painted to
resemble an Amazon. This innovation
was not popular, and when Commodius
died from poison administered by an
other feminine favorite the name Of
Amazonius died with him.
The ancient Saxons caIlt the last
month Winter-monat, which was after
ward changed to Heilig-Monat, or holy
month, when they were converted to
Christianity. The modern Germans
again changed the name to Christ
monat, because the month contains the
anniversary of the birth of Christ

Provide Plenty Of Water.

Water receptacles for poultry should
be large enough to hold plenty Of
water to last at least "a hours, 30 the
fowls will never suffer from lack Of
water. Drinking vessels should bs
carefully rinsed when fresh water IL
given. Il water is supplied irregular
ly, the hens will likely drink too much
at time. It should not be exposed to
the suns rays In summer or be al.
lowed to freeze In winter IL this can be
avoided. A flock Of so hens in good
laying condition will require four to
six quarts Of water a day.
Shade Of some kind should be pro-
vided for poultry, and this can often
be advantageously furnished by plant
Ing fruit trees (such as pear, plum,
