Table Developments, and of Ro-
liticaI and Military Situation.

Altho there has been no official an
nouncement it is expected the German
peace delegation will present its counter
proposals to the terms of peace at Yer
sailles some time during today. 1t is
known that the German reply to the peace
conference has been completed and as the
extension of the time limit fixed for the
reply expires tomorrow noon, the official
attitude of Germany toward the treaty
must be known without delay.

tiyes that the peace would-aot be one of
violence. 1t is said the Germans viii aim
to have ousted the old imperialistic regime
and substituted for 1t a democratic govern
ment and will for this reason ask for

pay for peace

to parley long If the Germans actually

Clyde Anderson VIII Then Do Best
He Can by Children.

Just a few lines to give the other
half of the world an insight into the
feelings and life of the other half.
Thru the Topeka Provident associa-
ton the other day Mary Anderson
filed a petition for a divorce from
Clyde Anderson. A summons was
served on the husband and he waived
it. On the waiver he wrote as fol-
lows:
I'VE have been married since July
80, 1907, and for the last four or five
years she hasn't been satisfied and
for about two or three years she has
been wanting a divorce SO i told her
that if that was what she wanted
could take the children and do the
best could for them. don't want to
leave the children. 1t is my duty to
see after them. don't make big wages
but will do all can for them. maybe
she can do better single and will
not try to keep her from getting a
divorce il it is not necessary for me
to apear i wont as hat to work every
day 1 can. Clyde Anderson"
