tural course at the college and also the
erection OF a new building on the farm
to be used by students for demonstra-
tlOn work.
From the farm the party was taken
In automobiles TO Old College Hall
where dinner was served. On their way
along Depot Road the college officials
pointed out TO the visitors the land that
the college has offered to give in case
that road is widened and a sidewalk
built, as has been talked OF Tor several
years. The college has agreed 10 give
a stretch OF land 30 feet wide on the
east side OF Depot Road from Main
street 20 WOllastOn Lane for that pur-
pose, the stretch being more than half
mile long.
Governor Townsend presided at the
dinner, which was attended by 40 per-
sons. and In addition TO the State offl-
GERS and legislators, many county ON
cials were present Among the trus-
tees OF the college present were for
mer Governor Charles r. Miller, Secre-
tary OF State Everett C. Johnson, Chan
cellor Curtis and II. Rodney Sharp.
At the close OF the dinner Former Gov
ernor Miller, as chairman Of the finance
committee OF the trustees OF the col
Iege, made an address in which he out
lined the financial needs OF the college
In the next two years.

tory; Wolf Hall. Purnell Hall and other
buildings were also visited. The final
visit was to the Women's College,

the members OF her faculty welcomed
the guests.
The new dormltory, which the last
General Assembly appropriated money
10 build, and which Is now being oo-
cupied by some Of the students, also
was Inspected.
The visitors were much surprised at
the large plant which the college is
gradually getting. This growth has
been made possible by the generosity
'of Pierre S. dupont, who, during the
past several years, has given more than
one million dollars to the institution,
providing for future growth, new
buildings and endowment.
The visitors will leave Newark at
4.30 o'clock this afternoon for VIII

WASHINGTON, Jan. 24.-This govern
ment believes that the Russian factions
will meet Allied delegates as asked by
President Wilson despite anti-Bolshev-
Xxi objection to the plan.
A high Official expressed the belief
and II is assumed that his views were
based on information from Paris.
The basis for the Wilson proposal,
which incidentally was FIRST put forth
by Lloyd George Is regarded here as a
general disinclination 10 make an ag-
gresslve campaign against the Russian
factions Involving as IL would military
measures on a vast scale. In other
words II is felt that perhaps the help
Ing hand. rather than the hard lst can
accomplish adjustment Of a chaotic
situation. 0flclals here are loath 20
discuss the relation between the pres
ent step and the recent outlawing Of
the Bolsheviki by the Lansing letter
and the British pronounciamento.
The fact that all the Allies propose
this meeting Is regarded as excellent
evidence that the Paris conference will
be Harmonious. France did not like the
George scheme, but
placed no serious obstacle In its path.
The question OF lndemnitles from
Germany soon 10 consider gives some
complicated angles, but there Is a grow-
ing disposition among the conferees TO
adopt the American idea that Germany
must be freed OF economic restrictions

WHEN THE ANNAMITES FEAST
Their Camp Cooks Prepare Meals
Which Are Unlike Any Served Up

During a day of repose | took occa-

LIE Roy Baldridge In Asia Magazine.
4 bit of French landscape has been
turned into AMMAN. Here one finds
neither Adrian barracks nor old
stone ~farmhouses With roofs of red
tile. Instead are the pagodas of the
Orient, artistically fashioned Of trees.
bamboos, branches and straw. AS we
pass the kitchen we see at ono that
the d%ejeuner being prepared is not for
Frenchmen. Most prominent is a ket-
tie three feet in diameter containing
rice. Which is the one thing a Poilu
cannot be forced to eati Before the
cook clamps back the lid we notice
In the center Of the white steaming
mass a bowl Of onions for flavoring.
Squatted near by, the assistant cook
with his couteau-a broad-ended,
curved Chinese blade two feet in
length-chops up meat into little
squares as he chants something with
an appropriate rhythm the while. A
driver comes for his meal. The cook
drops a ladleful of rice on one side OF
the extended plate and on the other
a little cube of boiled meat and in the
center a splash of sauce. The sauce
is the mystery. No Frenchman could
explain 1t to me except in terms OF
violent gesticulation. Then instead OF
taking out a "couteau d'Apache" as
all the rest Of us do. and starting by
slicing of a hunk Of dark army bread
from the loaf which every poilu keeps
concealed somewhere about his per-
son, our yellow comrade produces two
~sure-enough chop sticks from an In
ner pocket, and, sitting down on the
running board Of his truck. enters
upon that fascinating feat of dining
against the laws Of gravity.

Finally reaching the city exemption

did not understand him. "You mean
your pension money. don't your quer-
led the clerk. The old man shook his
head. mo. sir. boss; I mean de $1,000

Further inquiry disclosed that the
old nan had heard some n say the
government allowed the head of a fam
lily $1,000 exemption under the income
tax law, and he understood this to
mean that the government would pay
him $1,000.
He accepted the news that there
was nothing coming to him philosoph
ically.
"Jest like after luther wah." he re
marked. "Dey say den us darkieI

FILE RETURNS
BEFORE JUNE 10

A communication from the internal
revenue collector at San Francisco
gives warning that to avoid penalties,
in connection with income tax re-
turns, organizations and individuals
are advised to underscore on eheir
| calendars June Is. AS June Is falls
on Sunday, federal taxpayers are ad-
vised that Monday, June 16. will be an
| acceptable date under the revenue act
of 1918. Hence Monday. June 16, will
be the last day for corporations and
individuals who filed tentative returns
to complete their obligations by filing
final returns. Second installment pay
ments on corporation and individual
income and profits taxes are due on
the above date.
Much importance is attached to the
filing by employers of labor informa-
ton returns. A fine of $1,000 is pro-
vided for employers of labor, whether
large or small. for failure to make
returns direct to the commissioner of
internal revenue, Washington, d. c.
on or before June 16. All other re-
turns are to be made to the collector
of internal revenue, San Francisco.
Separate returns for each employe
whose salary for 1918 was $1,000 or
more are required.
