GOING TO WE'D? sure!
"Gobs" Merely Waiting to Be
Mustered Out.
Tired of Being Single and Now Want
to Marry end Settle
Down.

Quantico, Va.-American maidens
who have been worrying whether your
marines would pop the question when
they come home, stand "at ease."
A canvass of marine barracks here
at Quantico, where 10000 men have
been waiting their chance at the Hun,
made by reporter for Leatherneck,
the camp paper, shows that ~ per
cent of the single men intend marry
ing when they are discharged. How's
that for good news?
"We're tired of being single. We
want to marry and settle down." Is
the consensus of the replies.
These marines, many of whom Will
be discharged when the president de-
clares the national emergency no long
er exists, are fitting themselves for
good jobs that will permit them to
wed. Evening business classes are be-
ing held at the Y. M. G. A., and ex-
perts are explaining everything from
bookkeeping and shorthand to soil
cultivation and dairying.
The training the men have under
gone admirably fits them for mar
rage. There isn't marine in the
service who doesn't claim to be able
to wash his clothes winter than any
woman can ever get them. Every man
can mend and press his own clothes.
And as far as being "handy about the
house," why, most Of them can open
can of tomatoes with a toothpick
and drive a nail with feather
buster.

IRISH PARLIAMENT
MEETS At DUBLIN
DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE
ADOPTED AND DELEGATES TO
PEACE CONGRESS CHOSEN
members of Sim Fein Society Elected
to British House of Commons
Will Have Parliament of
Their Own.

Dublin.-Twenty-five members of
the Sim Fein society elected to the
British house of commons assembled
here Tuesday afternoon and formally
constituted themselves the Dali Fir
eann," which is Irish Gaelic for Irish
parliament"
They elected Charles Burgess, whose
Irish name is Cathal Brugha speaker
They also adopted a declaration of in
dependence, andsan address to the free
nations of the world, and appointed a
committee consisting of Count Punk
EFT, Arthur Griffiths and Professor Ed
ward De Valera to present the claims
of Ireland to self-determinatiOn to the
peace conference at Paris.
The two last named being in British
prisons, only the venerable Count Plum
kent can proceed to Paris, and then
only provided the British government
consents to give him passports.
The walls of the hall were quantity
embellished with the classic statues in
plaster and coats of arms. Past lord
mayors have witnessed many more ex-
citing dramas, notably, in recent years,
the conventions of the Nationalist
party, when there were imprisoned
speeches and hot party contests.
That the proceedings seemed tame
by contrast, was due to the fact that
they were conducted in the dead lam
guage of the Irish tongue. This was a
tribute to sentiment, but it was dead
ening to interest. Few of the 1000
auditors understood the addresses.
A crowd of perhaps thousand, in
GLIDING many women and children,
wearing green, white and yellow rib
bons, pressed around the door of the
Mansion House, watching the dele
gates enter Only two policemen were
visible, but the Sim Fein had its own
police youths wearing white arm
bandS-tO keep order.
The most striking feature of the pro-
gram was the reading Of the declara-
tion of independence. First in Irish,
with the delegates standing, and after
wards in English and French. Sire
lands address to the free nations" was
read. 1t concluded with an announce
ment of the complete independence
of the Irish republic against the AFRO
giant professions of England, founded
In fraud and sustained only by an
overwhelming military occupation"

PEACE CONGRESS
NOW IN SESSION
PREMIER cLEMENcEAU Is MADE
PERMANENT CHAIRMAN
OF CONFERENCE.
President Wilson, President Poincare
and David Lloyd George Declare
Determination of Nations to Come
to an Amicabie Understanding.

Paris.-The peace congress was for
mally opened on January 10 in the
great Sale de la Paix. The congress
opened with speech by President
pOincare of France. President Wilson
stood beside him as he spoke. The pro-
ceedings, which were confined to the
election Of Georges Clemenceau, the
French premier as permanent chair
man of the conference, an address of
welcome by the president of the
French republic, Raymond Poincare,
and speeches by President Wilson, Pre-
mier Lloyd George and Baron Sonnino,
were characterized by expressions of
lasting friendship and the apparent
determination Of the representatives Of
the various nations to come to an am.
icable understanding with respect to
the problems to be decided by the con.
ference.
When President Poincare spoke, the
entire assemble stood. and the fact
that, according to custom, no applause
greeted his utterance gave greater SOL
emnity to the scene.
Clemenceau Accepts Craftsmanship.
NJ. Clemenceau's acceptance of the
presidency of the congress was both
a feeling expression of personal graft
tude and definite outline of the great
questions Immediately ahead. Three
Of these larger general subjects he de-
fined as responsibility for the war, re-
sponsibility for crimes during the war,
and international labor legislation. The
league Of nations, he declared, was at
the head of the program for the next
full session.
Referring to the authors of the war,
he said he had consulted two eminent
jurists on the penal responsibility Of
the former German emperor, and each
delegate would receive copy of that
report.
In all, seventy-two seats We're pro-
vided for the opening session of the
peace conference. On the outer side
of the great horseshoe were arranged
the Japanese, the British and colonial
delegates and the seat of the fifth
British delegate. A chair for the fifth
American delegate also was reserved
Immediately to the right Of the table
of honor.
Many Nations Seated.
The Italian, Belgian, Brazilian, Gu
ban, Haitian, Peruvian, Portuguese,
Serbian, Czecho-Slovakian and Uru-
guayan delegates sat in the order
named. Across at the left wing of the
table sat the Siamese, Rumanian, Po-
fish, Liberian, Hedjaz, Guatemalan,
Chinese and Bolivian dele
cations.
As the delegations arrived they were
met by fanfares Of trumpets and &C
corded military honors by the troops.
President Wilson's arrival was the
signal for a demonstration from the
crowds. The president passed into the
where M. Pichon, the
French foreign minister, awaited, and
conducted him to the council room.
President Wilson proposed Mr.. Glenn.
enceau for chairman Of the peace con.
gress, being warmly seconded by Pre-
mier Lloyd George of England.
