 ON SATURDAY MORNING EARLY. On Saturday next at halfpast eight | mustn't be half a second late I'm going out at the garden gate When the dew Is glittery- -pearly. I'm going. I'm going, l don't know But think I shall find some others
 there, On Saturday next if the sun shine fair, On Saturday morning early. PerhapS it's the home of the big tom
 tit, Or the land where the little blue fairies For Daddy he said I should visit it, And go for a treat alone, too In a marvellous carriage with golden
 springs. And six white horses with twelve white wings And a coachman all over curls and
 things. Or perhaps shall go to the doll
 country, Where the doIlies are all as big as me And all have raspberry jam for tea. With huge thick slices of some cake; It might be sponge. or it might be
 bright With cherries. and iced as smooth and AS the pond where the feathery snow
 falls light,
 Or it might be. possibly. plum cake. What fun it'u be to see Boy Blue, And Jack and the stalk that grew and
 grew, And Fuss in Boots and his Marquis, And wonderful gleaming golden towns. And Kings with sceptres and swords
 and crowns, And Queens with fur on their satin And beautiful young Princesses, And if I should see Red Riding Hood. And her grandmamma in the dark old
 wood, I shall run away. as good girl should, For fear that a wolf might meet her. But grandmamma will perhaps explain If teeth. when they bite you. give you
 pain, And how she ever got out again When the wolf had managed to eat
 her. And the golden crocuses all aglow, And where the little white daisies
 grow
 When they vanish away together: And the place where the pretty blue And the pinks and the tulips bright
 and gay. When they go away and "Good-bye".
 
 "Good-bye for the winter weather" I must take my funny dog. Buff. the

 And his face like a great gray pansy Dolly Jane I shall leave on the nursery floor. For she doesn't go travelling any
 more Since her head got squeezed in the

His Wife Objected

1.-Two wee little girls across the way
Have played together the livelong day,
One dressed in velvet and furbelows,
The other i'm faded calicoes.
The years are few since their fathers stood
AS wealthy men in the neighborhood,
Partners in business and in their prime
But typhoid came in the winter time.
Crepe was hung on their office door;
Costs and creditors took the store;
Rascaly debtors failed to pay,
And their cashier went TO Canada.
And this extortion and debt and stealth
Soon left but little of their wealth.
And added to grief the cruel sting
That keen-lashed poverty will bring.
One insured, the other forgot;
One wife objected, the other did not;
One wife velvet and furbelows,
The other wears faded calicoes'

departments were obviously lacking
since the president and the secretary
of State are in Paris from where it
was assumed they would make any
statement on behalf of that branch
of the government.
One expression here general in
government circles, however, was
that the official summary justified
the great majority of the press dis
patches from Paris for the last five
months. There were few surprises
and these related rather to the meth
DDS by which some of the objects of
the treaty have been approached ra--
ther than the objects themselves.
AS a monumental production of
diplomacy, the treaty takes a place
in the state department archives not
only for it's great length, but for its
tremendous scope and the fashion in
which the great variety of subjects
is treated.

TERMS CONDENSED .
BY GERMAN PRESS

Berlin, May 9.-Condemnation OF
the peace terms is expressed by all
the newspapers here, those Of the
extreme right referring to the con-
ditions as "unfulfillable," and to the
treaty as "an instrument of rob-
berry"
The Tages Zeitung says:
zone thing is certain: there can
be- no question Of this being a peace
of Justice. What peace OF JUS
tice after the entente pattern and
in accordance with French desires
looks like is shown by the conditions
which leave nothing of Germany but
a torn and tattered territory"
The Freiheit says that compared
with the policy Germany pursued at
Brest Litovsk, the entente peace
must be termed "quite moderate" "
but it is argued that the terms are
in sharp contradiction to President
Wilson's fourteen points," and that
if peace is to be built on this COM
promise, it assuredly can have no
great and lasting foundation.
"a peace of annihilation" is the
caption used, by Vorwaerts, which
says there is "ruthless desire to
lay Germany permanently low by
force. If we sign this peace, it is
because we are bound by force, but
in our hearts we resolutely reject it.
Such a peace is an attempt to ex-
terminate nation, not by force OF
arms, but by a means more brutal,
economic slavery"
The Frankfort Gazette says:
eve are at the grave side Of right,
The only doubt is whether it also
means the grave side Of the German
nation. Never has murder been COM
mitted in more courteous form or
with more cynical equanimity. The
German reply will have to consider
that the draft deviates from Mr..
Wilson's fourteen points as far as
the east is from the west"
Premier Hirsch, Of Prussia, speak
ing in the Prussian national assem-
bly,, characterized the peace terms
as representing a purely "mailed
fist" peace, which would mean slav-
cry for the fatherland and fresh
bloodshed for Europe"

BOMBS SENT A JOKE.

Jackson, Miss, May 6.-Postoftice
officials here tonight said packages
received through the mails today by
Governor Bilbo of Mississippi, Jack
sons mayor and local newspaper
editor. were mailed at Durant, Miss,
that they were the inventions of per-
sons seeking to make the three men
subjects of practical jokes, and that
the packages addressed to the mayor
and newspaper. man are considered
harmless and have been delivered to
the addresses, the one to the gov
ernor having been shot to pieces with
a shotgun.
The governor had given the pack
ages to the local postmaster after
partially opening it. 1t was similar
in size and appearance to parcels re-
ceived today by Mayor Walter A.
Scott of Jackson and Frederick Sui
lens, editor Of a local newspaper,
and was wrapped in brown paper, the
inside of which bore the inscription,
"Gimbel Bros" New York. Novel
ties" Postofice heads said the pack
ages resembled those described in
newspaper dispatches recently dis
covered in a New York postoffice,
addressed to cabinet members and
other prominent men.
According to a postoffice Inspector,
examination of the package received
by the governor disclosed a small
copper wire, to which tag was at
tached. On this was the instruction
ttto open, pull this wire"
Three small wooden toys were
found; and on the reverse side of the
tag were the words, eff you have
followed instructions and pulled the
wire you are entitled to play with
these toys"
While friends Of the recipients, it
was said, are inclined to think they
have been made subjects Of practical
jokers, local postofice heads tonight
said they would take no chances. Il
developed tonight that packages SIM
ilarly wrapped, but larger in size.
bearing the name "Gimbel Bros,
New York." have been sent persons
in other parts of the State. One, it
said, received by a citizen at Ed

tanned two small oranges.

Washington was reserving its COM

while carefully scanning the publish

In congress, where the treaty must

expected to support it were holding
back statements while they studied

out. All that Germany has learned Of

perience of the war in airplane man.

should Germany ever again be free

THE SECTION OF OPPORTUNITY
Industrial .Index.)

The South is the section of great
est. opportunity. This is true: because
the South is the last great portion of
the country to be developed. This
fact would not be Of such Importance
except that the South possesses i'm
mense resources of varied kinds, The
development of these resources has
just been begun, when what has been
accomplished and what may be done
are compared.
The South has hundreds of thous-
ands of acres Of practically untitled
lands, that are fertile or may cheap
ly be made so, that are waiting to re-
turn large percentages upon the cost
Of cultivation. :. The character Of
these lands, the prices at which they
may be obtained now and the climat-
ic conditions of the South make
farming an inviting and paying oc-
cupation in this section. Like any
other business, it must be conducted
properly to succeed, of course.
The South has a wealth of water
power. The conversion of this power
into electric energy has so progress
ed that electricity is available for
manufacturing in a number Of Sec
tions of the Southeast, with all of its
desirable and profitable features.
The conditions in Nhe Southeast that
affect manufacturing are most favor
able, this being especially true with
regard to climate. The raw materi-
ais of many kinds are here, easily
available, and in most sections there
are ample transportation facilities.
Mercantile and general business
conditions are inviting.
A man can find safe and profitable
employment in many. lines in the
Southeast for his money. The man
without capital to invest can find
here work and the : most desirable
living conditions.
The South is prosperous and pro-
'gressive. It is building and expand
ing. The new people who come to
thi ssection will enjoy the beneficial

GERMAN WAR MACHINE
ABSOLUTELY KILLED

Washington, May 9.-Extended
study of the military terms of the
peace treaty convinces army officials
here that the point at which it IS
proposed to start on limitation or
is the absolute extirpa-
ton of militarism in Germany. Not
a vestige of the vast military frame
work built up in forty years of prep
aration for world conquest by Ger
many is to be-left.
Under the treaty any enterprise
aiming at a military propaganda is
and military education
cannot be carried on except in the
ranks of the army of 100000. Such
an army cannot perpetuate itself In
any way or expand through turning
trained men back to civil life as an
unorganiaed reserve. I
The feature Of the military terms
the inhibition upon discharging
from the army in any year more than
q per cent Of its strength-coupled
with the tweNe-year enlistment Pc
rod, it is said by American army Of
6cers-will prevent a recurrence Of
the scheme by which Germany was
once able to throw off the yoke Ma
poleon sought to impose when he linn
tied her army to a few thousand men
each year. 1t was appa::, :, these
observers said, that the lesson Of that
day had been completely learned by
the French militarists generally cred
tied with having devised the terms of
the present tresty.
Twelve-Year Enlistments.
The twelve-year enlistment period
it was said, was calculated
to make the army highly dista ;teirl
to the average man. There can be for
him 10 hope of advancement, but
only the drudgery of soldier life.
Since the dismantling of the forces
on the eastern frontier was not re-
quired, it was assumed by some OBJ
servers here that the treaty contem-
plated interposing Germany and its
limited army as a buffer against the
Bo'sheviki in Russia. Should Russia
find herself and strong government
arise there which could be recognized
hy TIE western powers, it was said
that undoubtedly the reduction Of
the eastern defense would be insisted
upon.
It is the view here that the provi-
sion Of the treaty reserving to some
Russian government yet to be indi-
Gated all the benefits enjoyed by the
allied and associated powers, prob
ably would cover such an extension.
In the meantime, however, Germany
is TO be kept on guard along her east
ern frontier in self-defense against
Bolshevism and at the same time act
ing as a buffer for the western pow
ers.
The naval terms are, if anything,
more drastic than those imposed as
to the army, navy officers said. From
a sea power claiming strength Sec
ond only to that of Great Britain,
Germany will be reduced to a naval
power virtually without rank in the
world The six battleships she may
retain, the largest not to exceed 1O,-
900 tons, would not dare risk action
with any two, modern dreadnaughts,
and every other department of the
naval service is scaled down accord
ingly.

war but indicate a deficiency in com parison with normal consumption much greater than the rest of the world can make good.
 Thus Europe is race to face with a situation in which it will be quite im- possible for 1t to buy all the food it will need, even if it possessed the money to do so, iii which it will have to pay quite abnormal high prices for the supplies, if the nations possessing surpluses are willing to sell the major portion of them for credit On one hand, therefore, Europe needs all the surplus supplies of food and raw ma terial it can get and on the other all all the credit which those nations can supply to enable it to buy it.
 Tt is obvious that no individual country can supply sufficient credit. The total amount of credit that will be needed in the coming twelve months, more especially by France. Italy. Belgium Germany. Austria. Hungary Rumania Serbia, Jugo- Slavia and probably by Russia also. win be not far short of s8, 200 900 900

economic and financial condition of Europe He holds this situation will come about because Europe has no comprehensive plan for inducing the world (chiefly America and Great Bri- tain) to pool it's supplies and it's credit for Europe's relief
 ''In view of this prospect it is essen tial that no steps should be left untak- en to induce the democracies of the entire world to cooperate in order to prevent so great a disaster" said Sir George.
 The difficulty is too great to be dealt with individually by bankers. investors or governments What is needed is centralization of the worlds supplies of food, raw material and credit and their equitable distri- button to all nations.
 Since the armistice. no effective steps have been taken to bring about the necessary increase in production that was so urgently needed and the worlds crops for the current year are even shorter than they were in the last year of the war. Moreover, they cannot be appreciably increased until the Autumn of 1920. Therefore the world has to face a period of twelve months in which the crops of Europe including Russia, are not only much smaller than they were before the

than doubled.
 With a reduced power to export and a greater need to import, 1t Is evident that the people of Europe will need, in order to keep themselves alive, to be able to purchase produce abroad to the value of at least $S,200,- 00O 900 by means of credit, and it is equally obvious that such an amount of credit is beyond the power of any country to supply. All countries must supply all the other countries with the things they need on credit, and the countries giving the credit must themselves in turn be able to obtain credit.
 Tn the first half of this year Great Britain gave credit to the extent of nearly one billion dollars to Conti- mental Europe, and, in consequence, has had to obtain credit from the United States to a more or less cor responding extent. The effect has been depreciation on the one hand in the value of the franc in comparison with the sovereign of 25 per cent. and in the value of the lira of 3S per cent In turn the British sovereign has de- preciated in comparison with the dol lar over 19 per cent. If the British people are unable to obtain credit from the United States and other countries. then they cannot give cred 1t to the Continent. In greater or les
