Just Surprising.
Surprising you were minister

Supposing you we're minister
Oh, well, perhaps you wouldn't, but
just supposing that you were;
And supposing that on the traditional
night before Thanksgiving, a turkey
which hadn't found sale was being
disposed of late in the evening by the
traditional method of raffle, strictly
illegal but all good natured;
And supposing you had a son with 3
little sporting blood In his veins. who
happened In at the place as the rsffle
was being organized, and Tipped in a
quarter for shake;
And supposing he won the turkey In
shaking off a tie, and brought it home to
the parsonage
What would you d.?
Yes? Well, that's just what be did.

UPHOLD BELGIUM
IN HER DEMANDS

BRUSSELS, May 5~-Replying to an
address presented by delegates Of
patriotic societies yesterday. Burgo-
master Max said Belgium had been
painfully surprised by the fact she had
mol been granted the moral repara-
ton she had expected in the choice Of
Brussels as the headquarters Of the
league Of nations.
As TO Belgium's other claims, the bur
gomaster said she did not hold out her
hand for aims. but asked just payment
for the damages she had suffered. He
feared, however, that the work Of the
peace conference would prove that in
the settlement Of the international rela-
tons, justice had not absolutely con
quered the ideal Of the empire. Never
theless, he deprecated giving way to
IAN impulstve gesture Of irritation for
il all OF Belgium's aspirations could not
be satisfied, important concessions were
assured.
The ~burgomaster OF Antwerp was
likewise called upon TO speak by the
participants in "A big demonstration
there. The official made a patriotic adj
dress 10 the crowd. kilograms were
sent to Pau Hymans, foreign minister
at Paris, and to Premier Delacroix.
At Client there also was IL demon
stration and the -burgomaster was
handed an address signed by represen-
tatives Of all political groups to be
transmitted to the Belgian delegation at
the peace conference.
