Only Thing that Can Excuse
Carrying on the Conflict
EMPHATIC SENTIMENTS EXPRESSED BY LLOYD GEORGE TO THE
TRADES UNIONS OF ENGLAND
ASSOCIATED Press

London, jan 5.-Premier David
Lloyd-George addressing the trades
unions today on the war aims Of the
Allies, said that only the clearest,
greatest and most just of causes
could justify the continuance even for
a day of "this unspeakable agony of
nations"
AT THE MOST CRITICAL HOUR
Premier Lloyd George continued:
"We have arrived at the most crit
ical hour of the conflict. Before any
government takes fateful decision
as to conditions under which it ought
either to terminate or continue the
struggle, it should be sure the con-
science of the nation is behind these
conditions"
The premier said Great Britain was
not fighting to take Constantinople
from Turkey.
A DEMOCRATIC ALLIANCE
Lloyd George said that the democ-
racy of Great Britain would tand TO
the last with the democracies Of
France and italy. Eve will be proud
to fight to the end with new Rus
sian democracy. So would America,
Italy and France, but If the present
rulers of Russia act independently we
have no means TO arrest the catastro-
phe. Russia can only be saved BY
her own people,
ALIEN ARMIES MUST GET OUT
He declared "the complete with
drawal of alien armies and repara-
tion for injustice is a fundamental
condition for permanent peace"
ALLIED PEACE TERMS
Lloyd George said: "We are fight
ing for a just ard lasting peace and
these conditions must be fulfilled.
"First-The sanctity of treaties
must be re-established.
Secondly-Te settlement
must be based on the right of self
determination or consent of the
governed.
sLastIy-The creation of an inter-
national organization to limit arma-
ments and diminish the probability
of war.
"To secure these conditions the
British empire is prepared to make
even greater sacrifices"

The Princess Pat.

"The Princess Pat" the Cort thea
Cre, New York production of the
denry Blossom-V Victor Herbert musi-
cal comedy success, will be the big at
traction at the Winslow Opera house
On Tuesday night, May lth. When
this latest triumph of the celebrated
collaboratOrs received it's metropoli-
tan hearing, it scored unqualified ap-
proval and was stamped the bes;
musical offering of the year. A Victor
Herbert's score can always be depend
ed upon for thorough enjoyment,
while Mr.. Blossoms book and lyrics
have never yet failed to fully fill all
requirements. The story of the COM
edy relates the flirtations of the
Princess di Montaldo, an Irish girl,
who has married an Italian noble
man. By her friends she is called
Pat for short. At house party on
Long Island, she becomes acquainted
with Anthony O'Brien, an elderly mil
llonalre, who is about to marry Grace
Holbrook. Grace is not in love with
O'Brien, but his money will bring fl.
nanclal relief to the depleted treasury
OF her uncle with whom she lives. The
husband Of the Princess has drifted
from his ardent lovemaking of other
days and to teach him a much needed
lesson, and by some means cause the
breaking of the engagement that
exists between Grace and O'Brien, she
induces Bob Darrow, a sort of adven-
turer, to lend his help. A plot is
evolved that results in a series of most
humorous situations. The Prince is
made wildly jealous while O'Brien is
planning on an elopement with the
Princess. However, everything ter
inmates happily as it should in all
good musical comedies, and the love
affairs of all conclude as they should.

We owe it to mankind to give our
selves as we are to earth's aggregate
of attainment and experience. We are
indeed to raise ourselves to our Nth
power Of existence and achievement,
but that highest power must still be
our own, individually expressed. Even
though our best be poorer than some
one else's Indifferent medium, 1t will
be thousand times better for us and

The lady or the perfume? Which is
the most powerful? Does the lady

cause it appeals resistlessly to her ma.
ture?
History would presuppose the ans
wer "Yes". From Cleopatra down, al
women who have been gifted with a
distinctive and singularly fascinating
personality have been the slaves Of
certain perculiar perfumes. The Sirer
Queen of the Nile, we are told, never
used but one scent-that, strange

Since women began to adorn them.
selves to attract the eye of man the
science of perfume has been studied
Primitive women naturally and in
stinctively put fragrant flowers in
their hair, in all probability uncon-
scious of why they did it, but really
because they came across a particular
flower which gave off scent which
appealed to them stronger than die
the other flowers.
When women were nearer to nature
and could select their own perfumes
from the wealth of blossoms which
grew in the wild state, no perfume
makers were needed, but when civil
zation moved them from the oper
country they demanded that the
beauty and soul satisfying power Of
flower scents should be brought tc
them.
One of the most scientific students
OF perfume and personality and the
affinity between them, Ann Haviland
named by Theda Bara, the "poetess Of
perfume" says of her art:
The power of perfume upon the
mind and memory is astonishing
Hundreds of people have told me that
the faintest aroma of familiar scent
has brushed aside the curtain of the
years and brought them back to the
scene or an incident so vivid and
startling that it appeared to be almost
undergoing repetition.
IF man were infatuated with q
certain woman he would retain sub
consciously the memory of the per
fume that she used. The trend Of
events might sweep them apart. They
might travel their respective roads of
destiny firm in the belief that the past
was merged in oblivion. But the man
would have only to smell again that
distinctive perfume and the past
would live again in memory. 1t would
bring back the light in her eyes and
the lights in her hair and the lilt of
her laughter.
Perfume is the ghost of the soul.
"When Theda Bara first came to
me in search of distinct perfume
was struck by her wonderful personal
lty. She reacted to different scents
in most remarkable manner. Some
she found depressing, others uninter-
esting or inadequate.
For her newest picture "Cleopa-
ira" she wanted perfume to be used
while acting in it. She wanted some

China Is PLANTING Trees.

The American commercial attache at

planting is spreading in China, the
New York Tribune states. And Arbor

once secretary of agriculture, has been

however, the Chinese combine the OBJ.

where in ancient times there had been
trees and streams.
No trees, no water-that theory of
forestry is rather we'll substantiated.
And without water there can be no
life. China is commonly spoken of
as densely populated country. But,
In fact, the density is in a small part
OF the vast area, more than ninety
per cent of the population occupying
one-third of the land.
To restore the forests to any con-
siderable part of China would call for
persistent planting and cultivation
over long period. But hundred or
even thousand years would not seem
long to the Chinese.

Warning Impossible.
It is the accepted belief here that
the German U-boat commander will
sink the Triumph after he has ac-
complished the work of destruction
in the shipping fleet. 1t is pointed
out that one of the reasons for seiz-
ing her, undoubtedly was that she
was armed, and that she could ap-
proach members of the fishing fleet
without the latter becoming sus-
picious and fleeing. This. of course,
the submarine could not do. The
fishing schooners for the most part
nave no wireless. and it was entire
ly impossible to warn them that a
raider was at work
Naval officials refuse to guess at
the number of U-bOats that are opera
ting off the American and Canadian
coast. The majority believe that there
may be three. The navy is taking
complete precautions to guard trans
ports. warships, and liners. and this
protection is being extended to all
classes of shipping as fast as possible.
Naval officials today decried sensa-
tional stories which they said magni-
lied the dangers of the situation. Such
stories, besides being utterly unwar-
ranted and untruthful, are designed to
give aid and comfort to the enemy, the
navy says. 1t is made plain that the
navy is on the job.

LONDON, Aug. 22.-The British at
tackled on the whole front between
the Ancre and the Somme at 4:4s
this morning, Field Marshal Haig an
nounced.
The attack was made between
Derancourt and Etinehem, a front OF
between fve and six miles.
This is one of the strongest defen'
sive positions held by the Germans
and its possession held up the north
ern wing of the original allied offen-
sive in Picardy.
American troops, brigaded with the
British, were operating in this sector
a few days ago.
"At 4:45 this morning our troops
attacked the enemy positions between
the Somne and the Ancre," the state
ment said.
"By nightfall yesterday our patrols
had made progress on the left bank
of the Ancre south and southeast of
Beaucourt. North OF the Ancre our
positions gained yesterday were
maintained against strong hostile
counter attacks delivered during the
afternoon and evening on the Mirau-
mont and Aichet-le-Grand front.
Hostile artillery has been very
active throughout the night on the
battle front and this morning fresh
hostile counter attacks are reported
TO have developed opposite Mirau-
mont and Irles.
Between two and three thousand
prisoners and a few guns were cap
tured by US in our operations ycster-
day.
Further progress was made by us
east and northeast of Merville. Our
troops. are on the outskirts of Neuf-
Berquin.
Last night we attacked and cap
tured hostile strong points north OF
