PEACE TERMS NEARLY READY

At Paris. Monday. the 14th, Presi-
dent Wilson, on behalf of the Council
OF Four. gave out to the press the fol-
lowing statement:
I'm view OF the fact that the ques-
tionS which must be settled in the
peace with Germany have been
brought so near complete solution
that they can now quickly be put
through the final process OF drafting
those who have been most constantly
in conference about them have de-
cided to advise that the plenipoten-
biaries be invited to meet the repre-
sentatives Of the associated belliger-
ent nations at Versailles on the 25th
Of April.
This does not mean that the many
other questions connected with the
general peace settlement will be in
terrupted or that their cOnsidera-
tion which has long been under way
will be retarded. On the contrary it
is expected that rapid progress will
now be made with these questions so
that they may also presently be ex-
pected TO be ready for final settle
ment.
ut Is hoped that the questions
most directly affecting Italy, especial
ly the Adriatic questions can now be
brought to a speedy agreement. The
Adriatic questions will be given for
the time precedence over the other
questions and pressed by continual
study to it's final stage.
The settlements that belong es-
pecially to the treaty with Germany
will in this way be got out Of the
way at the same time that all other
settlements are being brought to a
complete formulation. 1t Is realized
that. through this process must be
followed by all the questions Of the
present great settlement are parts
OF single whole"

to be garnered may cause it to be
known as the War Against War-men
turned TO JefferSon's writings for di-
rection and for the last word of in
spiration. They found it in an ex-
tract from his letter written in 1907
20 Madame De Steal in this sentence:
When wrongs are pressed because
1t is believed they will be borne, re-
slStence becomes morality
1T was in this spirit that the men
OF America weighed the wrongs which
Prussianism pressed upon the world,
and they entered the war because it
became apparent to all that 'resis-
tence' had become morality
Though he abhorred war as the
greatest scourge OF mankind,' Mr..
Jefferson gave a shiboleth to the
fighters for American independence
and motif for American participa-
ton In the war which brought g.
100000 youths from his country to
France. whose soil has forever been
made sacred to us by the blood OF our

ly thrashed by his father by direc-
tion Of the Judge, Victor F.. Arnold,
and under his supervision.
James is II years old, big and
strong, and SO his father. Joseph
Frome, carpenter. The boy was
said to be incorrigible and was sus-
pected Of completely in stealing an
automobile. Judge Arnold said what
the boy needed was sound licking"
and that the father was the one to
administer 1t; that is he did not, the
boy would be sent to reform school.
Father. son and judge went into
the latter's chambers. The judge
said there would be three rounds OF
two minutes each, and that he would
be time keeper and referee. The
father took off his coat and went at
James vigorously, the youth not
striking back, but lodging and wrest-
ling with his assailant. At the end
OF the second round, James was
bleeding from the nose, both eyes
were blackened, and his face and
shirt were covered with blood. The
Judge stopped the proceedings and
said:
James has taken as fine a beating
as ever | saw young husky take Go
and wash, James, and then come into
the court room and l will dispose of
your case. What your father just
did Will do more to make man out
OF you than being sent away to re-
form school,"
James father said he thought the
boy would like farming and Judge
Arnold entered an order to send the
boy to a farm in southern Illinois.
