Lloyd George Quits Conference
to Call On President Wilson
at Paris White House, De-
lays Cause PeSSimiSm


Paris. March l 8 (by the Associated
PreSs) The supreme war council
resumed it's sessions this afternoon
with a distinguished array of military
and civilian chiefs, expecting that
President WilsonsWould be present for
the final consideration of the military,
naval and aerial terms of the German
The president did not attend. how
ever, Colonel House taking his place,
as the draft of the terms in treaty
form had not been completed in time
to permit of study before the meeting.
The president received the fun draft
late this afternoon, and went over it
tonight article by article, with Gen
eral Bliss and Admiral Benson at the
Paris White House. With the presi-
dent absent the council deferred the
military and naval terms until Mon
day.
The Polish frontiers of Germany
was the next subject on the program
but the British prime minister was
not prepared to proceed. so this also
was deferred. Mr. Lloyd George left
the council room soon after learning
that President Wilson would not at
tend and proceeded to the white
House" for conference on the sit
uation.
Doubt March 25 as Date.
The inevitable delays on various
details led to doubts for the first time
in American quarters on completing
the treaty. by March rs, as was eX-
pected. 1t has developed also that
Mr.. Lloyd George is obliged to return
to London the middle of the coming
week, and he is unable to say how
long he will be gone owing to the
British labor congress and other sub
jects requiring his attention in Lon
don, 1t is hoped that he will return
within a week or ten days or pos
sibly turn over British interests TO
Mr.. Balfour, but his absence may
have the effect of prolonging the con-
clusion of the treaty beyond the 25th.
1t was stated at American head
quarters that the treaty now being
framed would be the definite treaty
covering all the main subjects, and
would not be preliminary treaty. 1t
is the treaty which will be submitted
to the United States senate for rati-
fication, and after it's conclusion. the
remaining details will be largely for
malities.
Brussels Is Bidder.
No decision has yet been made con
corning the seat OF the league or ma
tons, but the minister of foreign af-
fairs of Belgium has written offering
one of the historic palaces of Brus-
sells as the home of the league, if
Brussels is chosen. The prevailing
American sentiment continues to be
favorable to Geneva.
Leon Bourgeoise. French delegate
on the league of nations, will confer
with Colonel House tomorrow con-
corning two proposed amendments to
the covenant. The amendments deal
with investigations by, the league of
bers countries.

M. Bourgeois and the American dele
gates who attended the league of ma
tons congress at London. but now is
back in Paris taking an active interest

QUAINT OLD FINNISH TOWN
Everything In Borua Seems TO Go
Back to About the Earliest
ISI,V Period Of History.

a The first glimpse of Borga from the
water Is a cluster Of old wooden build
ings carelessly assembled along the
skyline You gather that the town Is
red, owing to the bulky crimson-palnt-
ed packhouses in the foreground. but
upon climbing up the steep. cobble-
stoned street to the town, you change
your mind, and decide that 1t Is going
to be yellow. For oil the funny, old
fashioned houses are painted that
color. A little farther on, however, II
comes upon you suddenly that Borga
possesses q color scheme-that all the
red and yellow Is just a background
for the splendid. solemn grayness OF
its ancient cathedral, which complete
ly dominates the town from the depths
Of q walled courtyard of the type that
was popular in the early fifteenth cen
tury.
Borga began about thirteen hundred
and something, and must have reached
Its height about the seventeenth cen
tury, for 1t contains very little of a
later date than that. The cathedral

organ, for example. Its white and
gold pulpit was carved In the sixteenth
century, and its wall sconces and won
derful crystal chandeliers are cen
turtles old. Other Finnish towns have
replaced their marvellous chandeliers
with less beautiful but more practical
fixtures of the current century, but
Borga proudly upholds the past The
Borga cathedral still measures time by
means Of quaint old hOurglass filled |
with sand.
Ii was in this cathedral that the EN-
peror Of Russia, Alexander l. received |
the oaths Of allegiance Of the newly
conquered Firms, a few days after he
had signed the constitution which gave
them their freedom. The house In |
which the constitution was signed-a |
modest, little. frame structure with |
Old-fashiened. blue-palnted bllnds-is |
also pointed out with reverence to the |
traveller, and If you are duly sympa-
thetic. the BOrgans will then lead you
up to the site of an old fortress re-
ported to date back to an obscure
period, even before the cathedral,
when the Films were heathens. 1t
must be admitted that this site Is any
thing but impressive now. There are
some peculiar dItehes, which. one is
assured, are moats, and several barb
wire fences which are supposed TO In {
close the ancient and venerable EN-
battlements. Nevertheless the place
must have atmosphere, II you can only
find It,, for 1t was here that Walter /
Runeberg, the great Finnish poet. used
to find the inspiration for so many Of
his splendid songs.

SOM THAT Is DsathTess.


The homeless bard Of home," John
Howard Payne, was born in New York
city June 8, 1902, and his song is one
OF those which gained immediate pop
ularlty, but enriched all who handled
II except the author. 1t came to be
written In this manner: While Charles
Kenible was manager of the Covent
Garden theater, London, In 1923, he
bought a quantity of Payne's writings,
among which was "a play entitled
"Clari, the Maid of Milan" Payne
was almost starving In a garret in
Paris when he altered this play into
an opera and introduced into 1t the
words Of ''Home, Sweet Home" So
tremendous was the immediate sue
cess that over 100000 copies were
sold during the first year. The great
Patti constantly sang 1t in this coun-
try when en- tour 60 years ago, and
IN fact 1t appeared for years on pro-
rrmns throughout Europe and the
United States.

Preserved Health BY Walking.

Sir Hermann Webber, the doyen Of
European physicians, who died at the
age of nlnety-seven, had a prescription
for longevity that was extremely sim
pie, and it possessed the additional ad-
vantnge of being quite inexpensive.
"Walk, walk. walk. every day." he said,
and whilst walking give the arms full
play. BY so doing the bones, blood,
muscles. nerves and brain will be kept
In healthy activity. And never mind
the weather. Take your exercise. be
the day wet or fine, hot or cold Above
ALL avoid sitting over a fire. Nothing
is more conducive to senIlity." AT the
ripe old age of ninety-seven Sir Web
ber might be seen taking exercise
daily in Hyde park, covering from
ten to forty miles week. His hobby
was the collection of old Greek coins
and medals. He was knighted by
Queen Victoria In 1899.
