the President.

Paris, Jan. 15.-President Wilson is
considering a speaking tour of the
United States when he returns home.
1t is said that this trip will take him

it is possible that he may touch the
Pacific Coast. His plans are not as
yet matured, but it is believed that
he has discussed the plan with his
advisers.
With Congress out Of the way early
in March, Mr.. Wilson would have an OPP
portunity for such a tour before return
ing to Europe should he follow his
original plan, and if his return should
be necessary. He would also have
time for his proposed trip before. the
converting of an extraordinary session
of Congress should he decide to call
one. So far as known, Mr.. Wilson has
no plans for an extra session, but he
still holds to his idea of returning to

And old Witty Witch shouted
through a great and mighty horn
which she had:
I'm coming, I'm coming, I'm coming
on time,
''This is the truth as well as a rhymeI'
The Fairy Queen was much pleased
that every one seemed to be so anx-
ious to come, and she began to get
ready for the great ball.
They ali arrived In the afternoon
before 1t became dark. The snow was
falling very gently and it seemed to
sparkle like diamonds as 1T fell. The
great pine trees were heavy with it,
and the other trees looked very lovely
too with their blankets of snow.
'Win you help me, pine trees?"
asked the Fairy Queen.
And the pine trees bowed their
great heads and said in their soft,
woodland whispers: "Oh-oh-oh-
we want to help. we want to help"
So the Fairy Queen gathered tOgeth-
er some Of her best helpers and they
put icicles in such a way as to make
a beautiful entrance hall Of icicles,
supported by the great pine trees and
their snowy covering.
It indeed looked like Fairyland
when the Fairy Queen had finished.
Everything was covered with snow
and with icicles and arranged in such
a way that every ono screamed with
Joy and surprise and admiration when
they saw it. They arrived at the ball
just on time.
Mr.. Sun was peeping through the
trees and making the scene a very
dazzling one. Oh, how the snow and
the icicles did look as Mr.. Sun looked
through at them and smiled. II just
seemed as though everything were
smiling, smiling smiles OF the beauti-
full winter with its snow and its ice
and its diamOndlike sparkling.
They had a most perfect time for
they danced on the beautiful carpet Of
snow, they sang songs and the echoes
sounded through the deep woods. Oh.
how clearly their voices did sound on
that cold, clear afternoon, for the
snow had stopped falling when the
guests arrived
They skated on a nearby pond, and
they-danced on the ice while some OF
the fairies sang to make music for the
dancers Some Of the guests cOasted
on great sleds down a hill, just be-
yOnd the woods where they were hav-
ing the ball, and the sun blinked, and
the sun winked and the sun said: "Oh,
such a BALI It's wonderful Every
one is happy and glad and gay. 1
hope every one will always be that
way"
Oh, how the fairies and the gnomes
and the elves and the brownies clapped
when they heard this.

GOV. ALLEN TELLS OF 18Th
Kansas Executive Declares Terrible
Losses in the Argonne Forest Were
Due to Supply Encouragement.

Topeka, Jan. 14.-GOv. Henry ]. AL
len declared in an address here yes
terday afternoon that a lack of artil-
lery support, due to the failure Of the
horse supply and lack of airplanes,
were the causes of the 35th Division,
Kansas and Missouri troops, being cut
to pieces by the Germans in the Ar
gonne Forest. A brilliant and bloody
battle that accomplished its purpose
was actually a failure from a military
standpoint because of its cost in hui
man life.
Governor Allen, for ten months in
France with the Red Cross and the
Y. NJ. c.. a. with the Kansas and Mis-
souri, boys in the Argonne, told of the
carnage of that battle field, where the
national guard troops of the two
states covered themselves with glory,
but at so great a cost that the French
military authorities declared the bat
tie was not worth the cost.
