LONDON CONSIDERS WHAT
PEACE TERMS MEAN TO BRITAIN

London, May S.-The peace terms
while receiving considerable approval
from almost the entire London press,
do not escape from sharp criticism on
certain compensation from Germany.
Some newspapers are dissatisfied be-
cause they consider that the terms are
too severe. Others think they are not
seVere enough.
The Morning Post finds it difficult
to say whether the treaty is GOOD OF
bad because of the 'compleXity and In
tricacy of the terms but is emphati-
cal in declaring that the value of the
treaty depends upon the power to en-
force it "as Germany certainly will not
accept it except under duress.' The
Post thinks that the indemnity condi-
tons are unsatisfactory.

Optimistic Nan

the fast-fading daylight came through

was writing happily, in a fever of ex-
element to finish her creation and be
off with 1t to the mails.
As she smoothed the manuscript,
and reread what she had written, Nan
chuckIed joyously: and when she had
folded the pages, she turned to yell

umrhed !; .'it will start us on our way
to fortune"
Jasper blinked back dispassionate-
ly. SIS though Mans ever-ready optim-
ism failed to- impress him.
Had she not always yearned to be a
writer, even when housekeeping for
dadd had been her necessity? Now
that daddy had married again. and she
was free to carry out her ambitions,
she intended to do so with all that
was in her. When she had become

career, Nan promised herself to- vic
toriously go back again to Donsdale.
Neither was she discouraged about the
starting.
In vain, friends had pointed out to
her the difficulties and disappoint-
ments of would-be writer's.
There was Aunt Nancy Whitcome,
for whom Nan had been named !;
lit was the eccentricities of Aunt
Nancy which had set her chuckling as
she read the caricature of her own pen.
The first winter snow had made the
air so chill that Nan determined to

quite too thin. and it might still be
charged to her fathers account at Ker-
rey's. Not that Nan intended her ia
ther to pay for the suit. With his sec

already planning for the best year in
the history of the organization in this
city. Next Friday evening the boys
will organize their patrols or groups
and will then be set for the degree
work which will follow at once.
The boys of the organization find
that their leaders this year are the
best they have ever had, and they like
them. The reason Is that they are
real boys themselves and know how
to get on with, the lads. And with
foundations like the organization has
at present time there is no doubt that
the lads will be highly benefited by
their work this season.
Any parents who are doubtful about
sending their boys into this club work
should call around at the Y. M. C. a.
any time after school hours in the
afternoon and get good taste of the
associations that the boys meet there
and meet the leaders of the organiza-
tion work, and they will withdraw all
their objections at once.
The work is fine healthy exercise
for the lads, the best all-around train
ing that this city affords.
