yarn:
Warden Fogart" Of the prison likes
to make as easy as he can the hard
lot OF the prisoners, and has arranged
for ball games at intervals within the
prison walls. Conyicts form the
teams, and while there is some diff
Guilty in getting one to act as umpire.
the games usually are pulled off in
good style.
y visitor from South Bend was at

player it was suggested that he put
on the prison uniform and get into the
game ''incog" and put little profcS
sional pep" into it.
Eventually the "ringer" was all fit

was sitting on the bench when a typ

HAVE NEW SENSE OF DUTY
America Probably Has Taught MUCH
to French Women Of the High

They were handing out pots and
pans TO the returned refugees at
RcimS that day.
1t was really very gay occasion,
says Blanche Brace in World Outlook
The pots and pans made it so, in
spite OF the ghosts Of dead homes
(mcrc hollow shells of ruined hOuses)
all around the shattered building
where the distribution was being
made, the broken cathedral ovor yon-
der, the miles Of desolation every

huggcd tflc cheap utensils to them and
crooncd over them as If they had been
children sometimes they wanted to
pay Il few ccntimcs rent" for them,
SO that they might feel the things were
their own. These were not just pots
and pans, but the promise Of comfort
and security again, the nucleus for
new homes that should rise from the
ruins.

Smallest Bank in the World.

There is saying among country
people that "thc smaller the bank the
safer the money" and therefore the
Wake County Savings bank, at Ra-
leigh, y. G., should be the safest bank
in America, since it Is the smallest.
OF course, it is Il trtlc larger than a
sock and easier TO get money out Of
than the tin banks or the china pigs
Of ones childhood, but 1T manages to
gather in a very great deal Of money
in the minimum space.
AS q matter Of fact, originally the
space occupied by the bank was hall
way into the building back OF IT. Some
changes in the architecture OF the
place made the hallway unnecessary,
and so the savings bank decided on an
office" there. Now 1t IS regular
bank" with an imposing entrance
and that Is about all. It's frontage, TO
be exact, Is 7k feet.

Army and Navy Union.

The history Of the Army and Navy
Union dates from March ], 1888, when
veterans Of the United states army
obtained articles Of incorporation for
an organization to be known aS the

United states Of America. According
to q circular sent out by the union, it
aims TO defend and elevate the ma

actions with Chinese customers. No
Chinese order is booked without his
approval, for he takes the place Of our
"cr"dit man" and knows who can be

differs from the credit man in that
he in return for commission on the

for it and pays UP himself if the

Lloyd George
Answers Critics
Premier Takes Part in Debate

London. July q (By the Associated
PreSs).-Premier Lloyd George re-
Piled to his critics in the debate in
the house Of commons today on the
second reading Of the German peace
treaty and the Anglo-French conven-
ton. His recent announcement that
the former German emperor would be
tried before q tribunal III London had
created much discussion and several
members, including Lord Robert Ce-
ell, expressed doubts as to the advis-
ability Of the triaI being held in Lon
don The selection OF y neutral ccdn-
try for this purpose it had been con-
tended, would have been better.
The premier, IN answer TO this. said:
What right have we to assume
that any neutra! country could desire
10 be the scene Of such a trial? The
allies have sufficient confidence in this
country that whoever comes here fo!
trial Will receive 2 trial equal to the
highest traditions Of the British ma
ton and there are no higher III the
world
'.If war is to be abolished it must
be treated. not as an honorable game
with the prospect of personal glory.
but as a crime. That IS why we de-
cided that the author Of this war
should ;}e tried.
Another matter OF extreme impor-
tarce which came up for discussion
was the Irish question. and to this
the premier devoted considerable time
with numerous interjections by Jo-
soph Devlin, Nationalist for Falls di-
vision OF Belfast.
Sir Samuel Hoarc. Unionist for
Chelsea. warned the government that
some Of the Unionist considered the
settlement Of the Irish difficulty just
rs urgent as did the irish members.
