And laughed. that he had snap. . .

And there isn't man OF the modern day
Who has captured blushins wife.

And his calm domestic life!
And if Lochnvar laughed when he ran away
With the woman that he adored

MAY TAKE FIGHT

Wilson Prepared to Stump

is prepared 10 make a strong fight
70 compel the senate to ratify the
preliminary peace treaty containing
the league o. nations, his intimates
declared today.
Press reports that certain senators
Will attempt TO separate the league
from the treaty brought out the
statement that Wilson is a good
fighter"
Asked whether. as previously in
timated to the United Press, the
president is ready to stump the
country if he deems it necessary,-a
person close in his confidence re-
piled:
That's good guess"
The president is represented as
ready to carry his fight TO the peo-
pie after which, if his stand is in
dorsed, he wiz tell the senate, it must
accept or reject the treaty as it
sta nds. leaving the responsibility for
rejection wholly up 10 that body.
Experts say the treaty, when com
pleted, will be indivisible. and that
the league must be considered an
integral part.
Wilson is giving considerable at
tention to departmental finances. but
has not yet reached any conclusions
1t has been foreseen that some gov
eminent branches will encounter
after May. but the presi-
dent is unable TO give any more from
the emergency appropriation While
the president has not confded to
any one his ideas concerning an
extra session of congress, persons

he will return home by May 10 or

VACANT LOTS NEEDED
FOR GARDENING, APPEAL

Vacant lots are needed fo- gar
dening by the school children of the
city and an earnest appeal is being
made by A. r. Williamson. saperin.
tendent of garden work in the city.
10 induce owners of vacant lots TO
allow the children 10 garden them.
Post cards have been sent out TO
all LOT owners with a request that
they sign and return them. In case
the lot is sold during the. summer
the gardener must give il up which
is understood by him before he ac-
cepts IL.
During the past summer there
were mere than 5000 vacant lots in
the city and River Park utilized BY
school children and adults. This year
they are endeavOring 10 raise this
number regardless OF the fact that
many new houses will cut the num-
Der of vacant lots down.
Z. T. Murphy of the state bureau
or education was in the city Friday
and saturday and discussed the mat
ter wieh officials or the municipal
recreation committee He explained
methods used by other cities in ae-
curing the lots and the results OBJ
tanned from them.
