conference program is understood to
contemplate the signing of separate
preliminary treaties with the central
allies as soon as possible otter the
preliminary treaty with Germany is
disposed of. Next would come the
consideration of any amendments to
the present constitution of the league
OF nations, and then the league would
be whipped into shape. The final peace
treaty would follow and would include
the league of nations plan.
The leading thought among the
British now seems to be to strip the
preliminary peace terms of all un-
necessary incumbrance and secure sig
natures, so that the world can begin
to settle back to normal.
Neutrals Express Views of League
Paris, Mar. 15.-The peace confer

of nations has brought responses from

LIFE AT EVERGREEN
Thomas Malley, Blinded Pomfret Sail.
or, Tells of Life at Red Gross
School

The following interesting account
of the life at the Evergreen School,
better known as the Red Cross Insti-
tuition for the Blind, has been receiv-
ed by the editors of The Patriot, from
Thomas Malley, Pomfret boy, who,
scarcely six weeks after his enlistment
in the navy, lost his sight as result
of spinal meningitis. Malley is a stu
dent at Evergreen, where Miss Doro-
thy Richardson of Woodstock is an
Instructor. The letter is as follows:
II would like to give you the fol-
lowing facts about the Evergreen
School, known as the Red Cross Insti-
tuition for the Blind. At Evergreen
they are teaching everything from A.
B. C. up to a college course-such as
dictaphone operating, store salesman
ship, poultry farming, osteopathy, an
atomy, dairy farming, book binding
and handicraft. There are also sep
arate courses such as insurance and
exporting, languages and music. The
object of teacing music is to provide
a pastime for the boys when they
leave school
'The school pastimes are bowling,
dancing twice week--and there is a
gymnasium where swimming pool
has been installed. There is also .
Red Cross House where a number of
young ladies entertain the boys with
reading, music and games after school
hours. As for the boys taking their
blindness as an affection. they do not
think Of it as one. They have discov-
cred many things that they did not
know before, and there are many
things worse than being blind One
young man, Mr.. Bitters by name, who
has lost both arms and both legs also,
has now taken the position Of drug
salesman as his vocation in life.
Evergreen is a large estate near
Baltimore, consisting of 100 acres in
all. There are three large gardens,
one of which is named Kernwood,
next is the tea garden, an dnext is the
swan pond. The boys enjoy many de-
lightful walks in these gardens.
"There are about 40 Of the boys
who have married since they came
back from the war, so one must under
stand they are kept quite busy with
clergymen coming out to the school,
and only good looking girls are chos-
