The three senate bills, numbers

The dormitory will be very similar

ten to him. The Germans had Metz
and were resolved to keep 1t.
Bismarck yielded. Prussia was not
quite as ready in 1871 to defy the
whole world as she was In 1914. Be-
sides, the city of Belfort was entirely
French by population and Bismarck
had already said with regard to Metz:
Il do not quite like so many French
men brought into our house against
their will"
AT German headquarters the ex-
preston: "We will bleed France
white" was common saying. and in
demnity proposed by Bismarck was
six millards-about one billion two
hundred million in American money.
But British influence had been at work
urging Germany to abate her demand,
and Theirs obtained from Bismarck a
reduction of millard-S20O, 900, 900.
Alsace and Lorraine were ceded to
Germany. There was no help for it.
Germany was to hold certain fortresses
in France until indemnity was paid.
Through Arch Of Triumph.
The German army had not as yet en-
tered Paris, though that city had sur
rendered. 1t was now insisted that If
France retained Belfort a part of the
invading army should enter the French
capital. This demand was made sim
ply for the purpose of theatrical ef-
feet. The world must see the Ger
man kaiser leading his leglons through
the Arch of Triumph. Theirs protest.

point of it, and so 10000 German
troops marched under the great tri-
umphal arch of Napoleon 1 and occu.

1t was calculated that it would take
ten years for France to pay off the
indemnity and the German troops were
to be withdrawn gradually as Its in

Daddy told the children as they
were about to have their evening
story that he had decided he would
tell them great deal about the zoo
animals, for he had been studying q
good deal with the keepers, learning
all about the ways of the animals, and
he thought Nick and Nancy would like
to hear about them.
So all of US are going to learn more
and more about the zoo animals, hear
ing the things that Daddy learned
when he listened to the stories the
keepers had to tell. We are going to
hear Of some Of the trips the children
made to the zoo with Daddy and some
times how Daddy left them alone with
the keeper and the keeper told them
stories of the ways of the animals
when free.
Sometimes, too, they would just
watch the animals and by their sounds
and actions they would tell their own
stories. So we are going to hear all
these things. we shall hear some Of
the things the animals in the zoo do
when they are free, and how differ
emily they live in the zoo.
Sometimes, too, we are going to hear
that they do the same things in the
zoo MS out of the zoo, for so they dol

quite true. The animals tell their own
stories by their actions, by their ways.
They don't have to talk the talk Of
children or Of grown-ups.
So that all these animal stories, Of
course, are true. just as they have al
ways been true and always will be
true, for animal stories which weren't
true wouldn't be any fun at all.
When we want make-believe stories
we have fairy tales and all such de-
lightful things to talk about.
But when you read of one of these
animals and of its ways and what it
eats. and how it LOOKS after its chill
dren you can know that it Is quite.
quite true, and that wouldn't want
it to be anything else.
For here's a secret, a true, true
secret. There is so much that is won
derful in animal life and in bird life,
so much that we can never find the
time to half tell about, that we don't
need to make-believe about the ami
mails and the birds. They're so much,
much more interesting just as they
are.
OF course. there will be plenty Of
bird stories and fairy stories and
other kinds Of stories, so We'll have
all sorts, but this is just little chance
I have to tell you all that every story
which Daddy tells to Nick and Nancy

Character and Credit.

The world needs character to use
its capital. There are many men on
this old globe with money in the bank.
There it does little to help men.
Money Is of value only as 1t circulates
and produces increase. Credit is the
medium through which money works.
Character is the greatest asset in Sc
curing credit. That starts the money
in circulation and turns the wheels of
industry. That brings jobs for men
and income for the owner of the capi.
tai. When pitted against each other
they bring strife and sorrow. When
leagued together they bring peace and
comfort. So the world needs men
whom Il can trust to use its gold to
advantage. They are the real makers
of history and the benefactors of man
kind. Character is the credit and the
capital that makes 1t possible.

1t is gala day for separate skirts.
They appear this summer in all sorts
of fabrics for nearly all sorts of occa-
sions. Starting out as purely practical
and utility garments. they progressed
into the more practical of dressy after
noon clothes, and then advanced into
the smartest of sport wear. The ad-
vent of new weaves in silk boosted the
cause of the separate skirt along. and
now no fabric is too sheer and dainty
to make the dressiest of these conven-
lent belongings. Organdie, voile, geor-
gette crepe lend summery charm to
them. Occasions where one wishes to
be smartly but informally dressed
seem to multiply and the separate
skirt fits in with them perfectly.

are Of fantasi silk and are worn with
georgette blouses. The heavy rib and

TREATY OF FRANKFORT, 1871.


The treaty Of Frankfort, which off,
cially put an end to the Franco-Prus-
sian war. was but ratification of the
'preliminaries of peace" which had
been signed ut Versailles on February
20, 1871. Some matters of minor i'm
portance had not been settled ut Yer
sailles. which were reserved for the
"definitive treaty."
The ostensible cause Of the Franco
Prussian war was the refusal of Prus-
sia to guarantee that prince of the
house of HohenZollern should not be a
candidate for the Spanish throne. In
reality both Paris and Berlin were
only waiting for an excuse and Bis
marck was making every effort to
bring about rupture. Official rela-
tions becoming strained and the Prus-
sian army having mobilized ard ap-
preached the French frontier, the EN-
peror Napoleon III declared wllr on
July 10, 1870, the chamber of deputies
having before that voted war sup
ply and the reserves having been
called out. Prussia was Joined IN the
war by the other German states and
the Teutonic armies had an unbroken
series of victories that brought them
to Paris, which city surrendered on
January %, 1871.
Gravelotte was fought on Augutt 1S
of 1870 and the French emperor with
his army surrendered at Sedan on
September 2. 1870.
Bismarck Dictated Peace Ternts.
A republic had been proclaimed In
France upon the surrender Of the EN-
perOr and Theirs was at the head Of
1t. Upon being elected as chief ex-
ecutive by the assembly sitting Mt Bor-
deaux, the provisional French govern
ment had already effected an armistice
with the Germans. Already the king
of Prussia had been proclaimed Ger
man emperor in the halls of Versailles.
Theirs met Bismarck at that splendid
palace of the great Louis and the tire-
liminaries of peace were signed on Feb
ruary 26. The terms were dictated
by Bismarck. Only on one point did
Thiers rebel. He refused to sign a
peace ceding to Prussia the fortified
city of Befort, which commands Hhe
passage between the Vosges and .he
Jura. This was the only strong fcrt-
reSs in France whic. had not been re-
duced by the Germans. If now hhld-
ed over to Germany it would oi'en
