Previous TO 1918 there we're but few

clubs under the supervision of the de-

project, however, has become lncreas-

clubs were organized with an enroll

year SOO5 lambs were raised by these
young people and 2006 pounds of wool
were marketed. The total value of
the flocks M the end of the year was
S13l 1890; the initial cost OF the

feeding them. was $37 ,0S2S2; the total
profit made by the boys and girls who
were members of the sheep clubs and
who continued the work throughout
the year was $94, O905S. The results

for munitions may still continue to do
service to their country by retaining
the habit they have formed of conserv-

WRONG VIEWPOINT OF LIFE
Foolish "Modern Girls" Who Get the
Idea That They Know Better
Than Their Mothers.

Scene-The dressing room Of
Broadway restaurant at the dinner
hour. Two of the prettiest girls
imaginable, both in frocks that sug-
gested not the city shops but the care
full fashioning of mothers hands, were
smoking and laying on rouge, with
lavish hand. And both were excited,
for evidently things had been happen
ing at home.
Said Rose and Black: "Those
chumps told ma that l hadn't been
working there for six weeks. There
was an awful row at home when she
found out"
Her companion sneered complacent-
ly: "Well, l never tell my mother
anything My jobs my own business.
What's the use? They don't seem to
understand that times have changed.
You can't live in New York like they
did in the backwoods when they were
young. If they think I'm going to
slave in an Office at twelve week ana
never go out at night and then marry
someone who means the Bronx and

during the period-probably thirty
years-in which damages are to be col

preferred that the treaty should name
the fixed amount of indemnity to be
collected, but did not insist on this, in
order to hasten agreement. The five
billion first payment is to be made by
Germany, in cash or securities, before
May /, 1921. 1t is supposed the total
to be demanded will be about $4,000

Owing to the Illness of President
Wilson during the early part of the
week, the commission on the league of
nations did not meet until Thursday
evening. At that time the completed
draft of the covenant, comprising u
articles, was submitted. There is no
longer any doubt in Paris that the
league covenant will be a part of
the peace treaty. and in this country
the opposition seems to be losing some
Of its vehemence.

that Geneva, Switzerland, had been Sc
