PHONOCRAPH TOLD
OF PEACE SECRETS
BY LOWELL MELLETT

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
Paris, April 25.-By mail Some
of the suppressed stories of the
peace-making are worth the telling,
There was the time, for example,
that NJ Pichon, French secretary for
foreign affairs told the assembled
correspondents on a Sunday in the
very Quai dOrsay room where the
Big Ten. had its daily meeting that
the League of Nations could mot be
embodied in the preliminary peace
pact.
Pichon's statement, given out for
publication, was strangely missing
from all the Paris press next morn
ing.
Inquiry revealed that three or
four deputy chiefs of the various
delegations had spent a busy night
rushing by auto from cne peace
sanctum to another until program
of suppression had been arranged
and then rushing from one French
authority to another until all cor
ners CT the censorship lid had been
rIeted down upon the Pichon in
terview.
Then there was the period when
the French press turned the repre-
sentatives of the American and
British press green by the remark
able accuracy of it's accounts of the
Big Ten and, sometimes, Big Fou
conversations. AS printed, nobody
was quoted, but it became known
that the language which the report
ers presented as their own was sim
ply that of some of the parties tC
the conversations, stripped of quo
tatjon marks. After a particularly
fragrant case of this kind the issut
was brought to a head by General
Bliss rising to remark that if mill
tary matters could not be discussed
in these intimate and supposedly Sc
cret conclaves without somebody
peddling the text of the talks to the
newspapers, he for one would have
to cease talking.
Next day and thereafter the pho
nographic records of the converse
tions were missing from the Paris
papers.
While the air was filled with ru-
mors Of disagreements between Will
son and Clemenceau, it remained
for L'Eclaire, Paris daily, to raise
the curtain on the loggerheaded sit

uatiop between Lloyd George and
the French PREMIER A long white
space in regular edition Of L.
Eclaire revealed the devastating
hand of the censor. Immediately
preceding the white space was
something like this:
~The following has been given us
by British correspondent whose
journal is favorable to Lloyd George.
Lloyd George today told the
British correspondents that if he
were Scheidemann-
Then the blank space.
Brief inquiry served to reveal that
the completed sentence would have
read 9-t
4 "-he wouldn't sign the peace the
French want"
Lloyd George thereupon abandon
ed his conferences with the British
correspondents.

The Devils Own comes

(To BE CONTINUED
FATIGUE CAUSE OF DISEASE
That Fact Being Admitted, It Follows
That the Best of All Cures
Is Rest.

From time to time somebody pro-
poses the "rest cure" for all maladies,
and for time we hear a great deal
of it. Then the subject is dropped,
and little appears in the public prints
concerning its value. But invariably
it comes up again, and the ''rest cure"
Is advocated for all manner Of all
ments.
Just why we should not go ahead
and accept it as a fact that the best
treatment for most diseases is rest, we
do not know. 1t is well settled in
science as anything pertaining to dis
eases that absolute rest is Of the
greatest benefit; that most diseases
are the actual result of fatigue of one
kind or another. The human body is
able to take care of itself when it is
not tired; it cannot take care of itself
when it is overworked, no matter how
many drugs are poured into it.
There is a splendid work to be done
by the physicians in the matter OF
teaching the people how to rest. Not
one person in a hundred understands
it. Unless the average person actu-
ally feels fatigued, he doesn't realize
that his body is tired-or that his
mind and nervous system are crying
for rest. The average person doesn't
know there is anything the matter with
him unless he feels pain, and yet there
are many maladies that are not accom-
panied by pain.

SCOUTS HELP TO FIND JOBS.


Another task which Boy Scouts were
recently asked by the government to
attempt was the distribution of posters
relating to the problem of getting jobs
for soldiers.
The war department provided ma.
tfonal headquarters with a list of forty
or more cities in which the situation
was so serious as to require special
propaganda effort. In every one of
these cities there was a f1rst-class
scout council and through the scout
executive of these local organizations
the work was carried out in each
community with dispatch and efficiency.
Again Boy Scouts were proud and
eager to lend a hand. Evidently
there is still plenty of war work to be
done, even though the treaty has been
signed and peace declared. This is
as it should be. Scouting wishes to
help Uncle Sam put through some of
his numerous big tasks which concern
his "boys."

@HANG ON, FOR MANY YEARS
Scientists Know That JelIyfish Live
Long, but .eWhat Do They
Get Out of It?"

In a recent lecture to children at
the Royal institution, London, Prof
Darcy w. Thompson told of a jelly
fish known as Granny that was res
cued by Sir John Graham Dalyell and
kept alive in sea water Granny, ac-
cording to Prof. Thompson, was care
fully tended by Sir John and fed reg
ularly one-ha1f mussel a fortnight.
She throve exceedingly under this kind
attention. Six hundRed of her offspring
were known. On the death of Sir John
she passed to the care of an arctic
explorer and was bequeathed by him
to another scientific man. Granny OUT
lived four protectors and died at last,
Oct. II, 1887, at the authentic age of
81 years. because of the neglect or
ill-treatment of a botanist.
Prof. Thompson did not say so, but
he left it no be assumed that had the
neglectful. bOtanist been as careful and
attentive as was Sir John DalyeIl
Granny might yet be alive, says the
New York Tribune, in which case she
would be no less than 9S years old,
and assuming that she was at least
two when Sir John found her, which
seems probable, she would be well
past the century mark.

HOW CAMP TEACHES SCOUTS
Conducted by National Council OF Il
Boy Scouts of America)

How far can the summer camp
serve the ambitious scout who wishes
to advance in his tests2 How can the
routine work of the camp be made an
interesting matter of service to the
camp community?
On the trail of these and many re.
lated questions, several hundred camp
directors are working. It is clear
that the best way to teach camping
is to let the boy actually camp. The
presence or proximity of an expert
enced camper will help him to learn
the best way more readily, and with
less hazard, but the way itself is that
of the apprentice rather than the book
student. The habit of self-reliance
and Of common sense can best be de-
veloped in a camp where instruction
is combined with hours and days that
throw the boys on their own re.
sources.
It should be the wish Of every boy
to become a proficient camper while
passing his scout grades and merit
badges. The enthusiasm of many
boys will lead them to endure lecture:
and book work to a certain extent
but such enthusiasm feeds upon thu
| chance to do some part of the neces
sary work of a community as well al
| it can be done, whether it be for /.
| patrol, troop, or a council.

ouackery Sometimes Effective.

Faith and foolishness will cure any

by some instances of miraculous whole

ground for the assertion.

during one of his campaigns, cured

WHAT THE SCOUTS DO.

The Boy Scouts in South San Fran
cisco have planted large date palm
in the civic center in honor Of Theo
dore Roosevelt.
Three Boy Scouts who were on
hike from New York to Montreal,
passing through the Adirondack Noun
tains between Chesterton and Eliza
bethtown, N. Y, came across a side
car accident, in which the occupants
of the side-car were unconscious. The
boys rendered first aid and telephoned
to EIizabethtown for medical aid.
Backwards and alleys in Niagara
Falls, N. Y, all look better since the
Boy Scout cleanup visitation.
National Scout Commissioner Beig-
beder of Paris has written Chief
Scout Executive James e. West that
French Boy Scouts will photograph
graves of American soldiers in the
Lille, st. Quentin, scissors, Rheims,
Sedan and Vosges districts, and place
flowers upon them for the families of
the Boy Scouts of America. 1t will
be necessary to furnish name, rank,
regiment and location of the grave
Requests may be sent to the French
commissioner.
The Shawano, Wis, troop of Boy
Scouts is fortunate in having a camp
near the Menominee Indian reserva-
ton. Nearly 1000 Indians are still
living there. The virgin forests are
practically untouched by man. Through
them roam deer, bear, Wildcats and
other animals. The redmen still pur-
sue many of their old tribal customs,
such as medicine dances and harvest
dances. The scouts in visiting the
reservation learn many things concern
ing the woods and nature, and receive
many valuable lessons in the early his
tory of our country.

SCOUTING AND CIGARETTES.

John M. Phillips, member of the ma
tfonal scout council and scout COM
missioner for Allegheny county, Penn
sylvania, has this to say regarding Gig
arctic smoking:
"From personal observation I find
that we have very little smoking
among our Allegheny county scouts,
and while we have not prohibited it
we impress upon the scout the fact
that to be physically strong, mentally
awake and morally straight he can
not abuse his body by using tobacco
in any form. I have stopped lot of
scouts from smoking cigarettes by
telling them that if wanted to stunt
q pup would feed him tobacco juice
Mr.. Phillips is getting splendid re-
suits from his "stunted pup"
