the allies Who have fought through
this great war: Let us at the peace
table see that real justice is done as
among those allies and that while
the sternest reparation is demanded
from our foes for such horrors as
those committed in Belgium, in
northern France, Armenia, and the
sinking of the Lusitania, nothing
should be done in the spirit OF mere
vengeance. Then let us agree to
extend the privileges of the league
as rapidly as their conduct warrants
II TO other nations. doubtless dis
eliminating between those who
would have a guiding part in the
league and the weak nations who
would be entitled to the privileges
OF membership, but who would not
be entitled to a guiding voice in the
councils. Let each nation reserve TO
itself and for its own decision, and
let it clearly set forth questions
which are non -justifiable. Let moth
ing be done that will interfere with
our preparing for our own defense
by Introducing a system of universal
obligatory military training mo-
delled on the Swiss plan.
Finally make 1t perfectly clear
that we do not intend to take posi-
tion OF an international meddle-
some nature. The American people
do not wish to go into an overseas
war unless for a very great cause
and where the issue is absolutely
plain. Therefore. we do not wish
to undertake the responsibility OF
sending our gallant young men to
die in obscure fights in the Balkans
or in central Europe. or in war we
do not approve OF. Moreover, the
American people do not intend to
give up the Monroe doctrine. Let
civilized Europe and Asia introduce
some kind OF police system in the
weak and disorderly countries at
their thresholds. But let the United
States treat Mexico as our Balkan
peninsular and refuse to allow Eu-
ropean or Asiatic powers to inter-
fere on this continent in any way
that implies permanent or semi-per-
manent possession. Every one Of
our allies win. with delight grant
this request II President Wilson
chooses to make 1t, and II will be a
great misfortune IL II is not made.

baudy put something" in a dresser
drawer after the shooting, exclaim-
ing God will never forgive me-"

No one is prepared for midsummer unless she has ready for warm wealth CT q sport suit, or a sport coat that may be worn with skirts of the same character, supplemented by a sweater of sweater-coat. The sport suit has made a place for itself that nothing else can fill. It Is not an extravaganza even for the woman who believes in reducing her expenditure on clothes to necessities, for the sport suit re- places dressier and less generally wearable clothes. It is smart enough to take the place of afternoon frocks and it remains informal, whatever 1t is made of. .'Slit" is term that covers the combination of q sport skirt and sport coat that do not match, as well as skirt and coat of the same ma terial

 Use for Old Leather.
 One should always save the tops of old shoes, or the gauntlets of heavy riding gloves or other pieces of leather. They are excellent as an interlining for iron holders.
 Do not make the holder too large, as it is clumsy to handle. Those which are oval in shape are prefer- able. Cut the covering and the inter- lining the same size and shape stitch all the thicknesses on the machine, close to the edge of the material, them bind with tape or piece of seam binding.
