thirteen occupy position of curious prominence
Five of them members Of the committee foreign

And yet they piousy proclaim to be generous, so

And the paper makes the following observation
These thirteen senators voted for the reservations
With the treaty thus modified they voted against its adop

yet without their of the reservations could

Now, how is that for shameful duplicty?
And the Herald goes further with its mild but none
the less scathng suggestions:

TODAY WILL DECIDE FAIR.

Today will end the struggle between Palatka Pensa
cola and portion Of Jacksonville for the location of the
centennial exposition Paatka has done all it could to
bring the matter properly before the members of the

facts setting forth the advantages of this city loca

ADJUSTMENTS.
"POllyana" Coming.

The "Pollyanna' company will ap-
pear at the Arcade on next Wednes-
day to add to the joys Of everyday
living. The glad play is the well,
chosen offering of the Arcade and the
company interpreting the CHEEKY text
and characters of "Polyanna," is
personally one of very high order.
The philosophy which this glad play
spreads has caught the imagination Of
people, and sparks in every heart
feeling of comfort that is not soon
forgotten. There is nothing "preachy"

evenings diversion at the Theatre
where all the lovable characters of
the famous books pass in review as
living beings, and sends one home with
a smile and a sense of satisfaction
that is bound to linger pleasantly in
memory long after the playhouse is
darkened. In fact, it is one of the
unusual and enduring things of the
theatre-a popular success with a
sound corner stone or worthwihleness.
Klaw & Erlanger and George c.

people long for in entertainment when
they brought out "Pollyanna" in the

SHIPPING KEEPS BEEF
PRICES IN j. S. HIGH
LACK OF FACILITIES FOR BRING
ING ARGENTINE MEAT HERE
Need of Refrigerators For Bringing
Millions of Pounds From South
America.
By Lawrence S. Haas.


UNITED Press Staff Correspondent
BUENOS AIRES, Dec. 13-If the
American meat consumer, worrying
over his mounting butcher bills, reads
Of the enormous gains in the South
American cattle industry, and then de-
mands why South American meat is
lot sent to North America to lower
the price at home, he need take his
quest no farther than those who con-
troll American ship construction.
This is the opinion of leading Am
erican meat men in Buenos Aires.
While none will venture the assertion
that Argentine meat placed on the
American market would lower Amer
lean meat prices they do declare that
there are thousands of tons of South
American meat that would be avail
able for North American consumption
if only refrigerator ships We're to be
had.
In connection with this great "lF'"
the head of the South American
branch of one of the greatest pack
ing houses in the United States frank
" told the United Press that he
knows of no refrigerator ships plying
between the United States and South
American ports. And, he added,
Great Britain, as mater of fact,
is constructing refrigerator vessels as
rapidly as she is able to do so.
Given an adequate number of refrig-
orator ships, South American meat
producers declare they can deliver
meat at any point in the world, the
United States not excluded, at price
that would leave no fear of local COM
petition. However, questioned as to
the feasibility of competing with AM
erican meat production in the Unit
ed States, no claims were made that
Argentine meat could be "laid down
at American ports cheaper than AMI
crican meat could be delivered, but 1t
was stated that Argentine, Uraguayan
and Brazilian meat could be delivered
Just as cheaply as the home product
The long haul from South to North
America, the greatest single cost fac
tor nthe expectation of meat from
The southern to the northern comment
is somewhat offset by the lower cost
of labor and production in South AM
erica. In the three great cattle
countries-Argentina, Uruguay and
Brazil-the cattle are outdoors twelve
months in the year, and for ten
months feed on green grass. Head
fer head the United States produces
nc better grade of beef.
South American packers, as every
CLe else who has something to sell,
gre looking for the best market. But
they cannot get their products to any
market, no matter how good, unless
there is some way of carrying them,
Of course, it is obvious the produc-
ton hides moves at pace no great
er than that of meat production. If
the United States wants Argentine
rieat sufficiently to provide means fo'
transportating it they can get it, but
South American meat producers will
not commit themselves to the EXPIRES
son of an opinion that the price of
meat or leather in the United States
will drop if large quantities of Ar
gentine beef and hides are placed on
the American market.

NOTHING LEFT TO CHANCE
Advance of American Divisions at San MihieI Had Been Planned With
 Elaborate Care.

In modern warfare a mans head is his chief asset, writes Duke Bolivar in Boys Life. You all know that the St. MihieI salient, encompassing 152 square miles of territory and 73 viI- lages, was taken by the Americans. Did you know it was do5e by head work? Elaborate plans were made in advance and given out wholesale to the troops. One hundred thousand maps, covering minute details Of the country, Including natural defenses, and how it was manned by the enemy. were distributed, plus 30,0OO photo graphs, scattered among officers of the artillery and infantry. Five thousand miles of telephone wire and 5000 in- struments were employed, and this elaborate system kept up with the ad- vance of the army. By this service fanking troops could telephone their position back to the artillery. The tel ephOne business of a city of 100000 could have been handled by this equip ment in whose operation 10000 men were engaged. Thousands of carrier pigeons aided the signal corps. Ex- tensive hospital facilities, 4.SO0 trucks, miles of railroad, were provided for this big military operation, and 10000 feet of movie film were exposed, so all the soldiers had to do was to fight.

WARS SET UP PRINCIPLES
Mcmentous Questions Troubling Man kind Have Been Settled by the
 Worlds Greatest Conflicts.

Wars are milestones. Victories set up tablets, upon which are inscribed the principles that have been vindf- Cated.
 The attIe Of NIarston Moor de stroyed feudalism, overthrow the doe Urine of the divine right of kings, gave England an elective parliament, Rev. Dr. Newell Dwight Hills said in a ser mon reported in the Brooklyn Eagle.
 The French revolution destroyed French autocracy, and gave the people the right Of self-determination.
 The war of 1776 was the last civil war of Great Britain-a war of a good section of the English people against the bad section of Great Britain which had enthroned a crazy German king George III.
 The war of 1861 established on sure foundations the republic, the last best hope of man, and vindicated industrial democracy without regard to color.
 The war of 1914 has settled certain things for all time. War shall be no morel Hereafter disputes between races shall be settled by an Interna- tiOnal supreme court. NIilitarism shall be no more-never again shall the peo- ple's resources be wasted in bling up munitions, nor the man in the furrow carry soldier upon his back. Inter- national treaties hereafter shall be sacred! Alas for the next nation that counts its written pledge a scrap of paper and defes international lawl The small races and peoples are free! No big bully nation like Germany can ever again trample upon Belgium, as King Ahab trampled on Naboth and seized his purple vineyard. Terrorism and frightfulness henceforth are out lawed. That clay god called "the state," that Germany made unto her self and has long been worshiping, is an idol that has fallen.

 I understand the early retirement of Pittsburgh and West Va. Preferred is more than a possibility with the coal company aggregation to follow.
 After many months of prepara ton the real move in Can seems to be about ready; there has unquestion- ably been in the last week good buy ing, plus inside assurance. The con- trolling interests that have been bull Ish but inert, are understood to be ready to remove the lid. Can is inter ested also in the general food situa- ton in Europe. It's products will be aus necessary there as for fruit pack CTS in California and oyster and to- mato canners in Maryland.
 Current discussion of Mexican con ditiors is flippant and wholly unre- liable. The banking ommittee- which has Mexican affairs in hand is confi- dent and the plainly speculative gos- sip adoat concerning Ciarlanza's pans and motives should be very largely disregarded.

Prepared for the Future,

It was at the door of store which had advertised exceptional bargains for that day, in the jam, that Mrs. Blank saw Mrs. Brown and rushed to shake hands with her and say:
 "Oh, Mrs. Brown, are you hereT
 'fYes, am here. but did not expect to meet you"
 'Why, you see, am going to join the new league and am getting ready for it.''
 'Ts it the Woman's league where we pledge ourselves not to buy a hat or garment costing more than $10?"
 'Yes, that is the one and I am going to join it, too. I am getting ready for it.''
 And they entered the store together and each bought a dress marked down from SSO to $48, and s20 hats and coats that cost over S60 each. They went out feeling that they could stand by their pledge.
