Nick Stevens, one of our popular
Greek citizens, has returned from
Camp Lee, Va, where he has been in
the service. Corporal. Stevens ex-
pressed his regret at not being sent
to France, the armistice having been
signed just as his company was pre-
pairing to embark. He wears a white
stripe on his sleeve to indicate six
months in the service, and red stripe
to indicate honorable discharge. Nick
has many friends here who will be
glad to see him again. He said he ap-
preciated getting The Evening Leader

tion.

One of the most interesting and. as

the meeting on Monday night, last.
The meeting was called to order

Conference Between Wilson And
French and British Premiers
Scheduled For Today Is Delayed
Much Preliminary Work Has Been Cleared Up;
Broad General Agreement viii Likely Be
Reached Before President Returns Home

Paris, Jan. 9.-(By The Associated
Press.)-President Wilson's confer
ences with the premiers of France,
Great Britain and Italy, scheduled to
begin today, probably will not begin
until early next week, as Lloyd George
has been delayed in arriving. There
will be informal meetings of President
Wilson and the French and Italian
foreign ministers to clear up much
preliminary work.
It is doubtful now if the meeting
of the premiers, as one of which Will
sen will rank, will do more than reach
a broad general agreement before the
president returns to the United
States.

spheres Of breeding and finishing. For
eign competition, especially in the case
Of beef, has become OF serious import,
rendering maximum results imperative.
A brief era Of free. grass and cheap
grain has passed into the historical
stage; making gains with cattle, hogs
or sheep has enhanced In cost until
even with the new scale Of values the
industry can be probably maintained
only by intelligent methods, and the
lessons annually taught at Chicago
during the first week in December
therefore possess added import.

combines economical feeding with i'm

departure providing for a comprehen-
sive display of such grains and grass
