afterwards paid a dollar and a
quarter gallon for five gallons Of
oil, which was canned and boxed and
shipped to me by steamboat to Carroll
ton, with lamps and chimneys and
wicks, and l used 1t in the parsonage
for all Illuminating purposes. Some
Carrollton people were fearful Of ex-
plosion and Inflammation and were
slow to adopt it.
Nearly year after my visit to the
refinery at Maysville, coal oil we'll in
West Virginia was announced August
90, 1859. l heard it impressively an
nounced by a citizen of Covington af-
ter removed to Newport. He said,
"The coal oil flowing from a well in
West Virginia onto a piece Of low
ground , has made pond of oil large
enough and deep enough to float a
steamboat! The coal oil we'll proved a
disaster to the oil refinery at Mays
Vile. The next time l met my friend
DR.. Coons, asked him about his
Maysville refinery. He replied, that
Goal oil wells had killed it,.
In after years he and l were near
neighbors in st. Louis, Mo-, and occas-
sionally were in pleasant ASSOCIATION
| Later we were a few squares farther
apart. When aged and infrm and on
the street near his home, he received
injuries from a passing railway car
and died a few days later l was
among those who attended his tuner
al service in Presbyterian Chruch.
The facts l have recited about the
refinery" at Maysville are not in eth
err of two large Encyclopedias that
have examined in the Public Library
in Monrovia, Cal, nor in any other
book. Coal oil here for family use Is
sold from stores at fifteen cents per
gallon, and the crude or raw materia
from many wells in this State is sold
at thirty cents uer barrel. 1t is used
in a mixture with fine gravel and sand
in covering the surface Of streets and
country roads.

to the Chinese again."
Then" asked Jack, China would
really lose by the war without having
anything to say about whether she
wants Japan to have part of her coun-
try or not"
THAT Is right, Jack, and also anoth-
er thing is wrong is the way in which
the men who made the peace treaty
decided to give Japan this part of
China. l heard Senator Nelson, of
Minnesota, make a speech in the Sem
ate in which he read letters showing
that in 1916 and 1917 England, France,
Italy and Russia secretly told Japan
that if she would help them get what
they wanted in the peace treaty they
would help Japan get Shantung. The
United States did not have anything to
do with this secret, but our President
gave his consent in France to allow
this part of China to be given to Japan
He always said, too, that he would not
let anything like that happen to any
Of the countries at the peace confer
ence. If the peace treaty is accepted
by our Senate giving this province to
Japan, 1t may cause the United States
lot of trouble"
But why does Jan want this land?'
asked Jack.
Because she will get more land
for her people to live in. She will get
many mines and many places for her
ships to land. One of the big ports
as we call city where ships load and
unload their goods, is city in Shan
tung called Kiaochow. 1t has a large
bay or harbor and it would help the
Japanese increase their business
which must be carried on the water
in large boats. You see, children

The Story Of China and the Peace
Treaty


The Story Of China and the Peace
Treaty
Uncle Ted, spoke up Jack after ne
and his sister Ruth were again seated
for their weekly story, you promised
us last week that you would tell US
about another reason why the big Sen
ators do not like the Peace Treaty
which President Wilson signed IN
France. You said 1t was about China
and that there was dragon in 1t, too.
"Yes,", answered Uncle Ted, as he
settled back in big easy chaid with
Jack on his lap and Ruth at his rect
"China has come to be very important
in the making of peace after the great
wal Way back in 1898, before either
of YOU we're born, China signed
treaty with Germany by which emma
gave to Germany, large part OF this
far-away country. The part which
Germany received at that time Is
known as the province of Shantung'
a province in China meaning about the
same as a state in the United States
This province or state is in the north
eastern part of China and is about as
large as the two states of Pennsyi-
yania and Virginia put together the
land is in the form Of a peninsula WIN
the Gulf of Chilli on one side and the
Yellow Sea on the other. Port Ar
thur which the japanese won from the
Russians in another war is just across
the water from the most northern part
of Shantung."
But what has that to do with the
Peace Treaty and the Great War;
asked Jack
Just this. In the peace treaty which
President Wilson is asking our Senate
10 accent without changing, 1t says
that Japan shall be allowed to own
this province of Shantung and that
Germany will no longer own any part
of It, But the Chinese and the Japa-
nese cannot agree. They are just ike

helped fight Germany in the Great
War and China says that she helped
fight II after the United States prom
ised TO protect her at the Peace Con-
farance from lust such things as this
turning Of Shantung over to Japan"
would 1t be wrong to give Shan
tung to Japan" asked Ruth.
"Yes, It would be wrong for several
reasons Germany never had any rea'
right to stay In Shantung, and 1t wal
only because her army and her navy
were much stronger than the Chinese
that she was able to stay there. II Il

Il hope the Prince isn't robbed"
said Ruth.
II think our Senators will refuse to
help the dragon, and the prince will be
safe once again. But it is late, kid
dies, so off to bed. I'll tell you more

WAR STAMP CAMPAIGN
Continued from Page ~

Organization in Minneapolis and a
county organization in every one of
the 295 counties Of the district. Since
before the Victory Loan Campaign
there has been comparatively little
War Savings activity, but those in
charge are now working to put the
organization into shape to perform
the big task of carrying on an in
tensive campaign of thrift education
and stamp sales.
The main features of the campaign
for the remainder of the year, as out
lined by M. e. Harrison, District
Director, are as follows:
First. The organization of War
Saving societies in every school room
of the Ninth Federal Reserve Dis
trict. The organization of school
societies as a means of teaching the

met with fine success. There are
already 1000 active school War Saw
ing societies. 1t is planned to in
crease this number to $4,000 which
is the total number of school rooms
in the district
Second The organization of War
Saving societies in all industries in
the district employing five or more
people. There are now over 1000
industrial societies enrolled and this
work will be carried on intensively
by the Central and local organiza-
tions, especially in the larger centers
