light by occupying the middle of the

was absorbed in his or her stocking,
and Edith certainly managed to get
the most wonderful stocking toys. Bob

course. Then, after breakfast, we all
formed up and went into the library,

whether there can come in life thrill

WASHINGTON, D. c., Dec. TO-
Should Germany require another
spanking at the hands of the allies as
the result of her refusal to sign the
protocol providing for the enforce

to send additional troops to Europe,
il is understood here.

backbone Of the land omvement, aid

sector on the Rhine; a similar num-
Der Of Belgian troops and slightly
larger proportion of British troops

The main sea effort would be I'M
dertaken by the British, according
to expert opinion, and these military
and naval measures, backed up by Sc
we're economic pressure, would very
quickly reduce Germany to terms.
Officials Not Excited.
Officials here refuse to become ex-
cited over the new war scare. Sec
rotary Lansing ignored the question
entirely at his conference, nor were
any statements forthcoming from
either the War or Navy Departments,
When he last mentioned the subject
the Secretary of State declared the
United States peace delegation would
return from Paris on schedule.

1t would mean, literally, an extended

is not regarded as a serious probable
