they had come, that 1 forgot all about

Japan's failure to induce the Paris
conference to remove the color line
has been compensated by the allies in
permitting her to retain possession of
KiRo Chau and the Shan Tung PENN
suia. Thus is a sentimental reward
for participation in the war exchanged
for a material one. 1t is provided,
however, that Japan shall return this
territory to China at some indefinite
future time. Probably those who be-
lieve that Japan will carry out the
latter part of this agreement could
be counted on the fingers of one hand.
What she gets she holds. The situa-
ton regarding Kiao Chau aptly illus
trates the adage that possession is nine
points in law" Japan is in possession
of the territory in question and as the
allies could see no good way of max
ing her relinquish her hold. they APP
parently concluded that the easiest
way out was to give their consent to
a continuation of the status quo. To
avoid the appearance of an absolute
surrender to the demands, of Japan
the proviso for ultimate return of the
property to its rightful owner was in
serted. 1t may be that some equally
clever and transparent method can be
found for dealing with the Fiume
problem.

Berlin, April IS (By courier to
Paris, May 2.)-The most difficult
peace problemsNfrom German stand
point are disposition of Danzig, the
Saar valley and Upper Silesia. The
question of indemnities is much less
important.
This declaration was made today by
Minister Giesbert, head of the post
and telegraph Portfolio in the cabinet
just leaving for Versailles as MEM
Der OF the German peace delegation.
"Danzig should become free port
under German sovereignty but should
be controlled internationally" said
Gfesbert.
Upper Silesia is necessary to sup
ply eastern Germany. Loss of the
Saar district would cripple Germany.
1t would mean starvation or emigra-
ton of 100000 German workmen
which Germany would be unable to
feed.

rate northern from southern Germany

There are three ways out of the
difficulty. The first is friendly I'M

whole world would have peace.
THE second would be a guarantee
by America and England to protect
France. The third would be for us to
sign a peace treaty designed to render
Germany helpless economically and in

then certainly would be overthrow

Worlds Highest Paid woman Writer
Money and Happiness.

There is no torture equal TO that of
genteel poverty that tries to keep up
appearances; that starves to give a.
pink tea occasionally; that huddles
the whole family into a couple of
rooms to have a good address, and
that shivers under sleazy silk instead
of being warm and comfortable in
honest homespun.
But there is joy and comfort in the
poverty that accepts poverty frankly,
that wears the kind of clothes it can
afford. without aping the fashions of
the rich; that sets before its guests
the kind of a meal that does not run
it into debt and that has no heart
burnings over what people better off
have, because it does not compete with
them It's trying to keep up with the
Jones's that makes the bitterness of
being poor
Girls are especially victims of the
theory that they must disguise their
poverty and appear to be wealthy
young women engaging in labor for a
lark instead of honest working girls.
1t is what makes the little stenogra-
pher or clerk go without the food she
needs to keep her strong and well, in
order to buy $14 white boots with two
inch heels in which she suffers tor
lures, instead of taking care of her
health by eating properly and buying
the kind of substantial footgear in
which she would find solid comfort
and wear.
And it Is what makes girls go in
for occupations that they consider
genteel but foE which they have no
aptitude, and in which they will al
ways be i'll paid bunglers, instead of
taking up the kind of WORK. they are
fitted for, and in which they would
| make money.
In the course of year hundreds
and hundreds of girls write to ask my
advice about going on the stage and
becoming authors and artists and they
| invariably wind up by saying that
| they consider these occupations Gle
CANT. That's why they want to &C
into them. Not because they have any
| burning talent in those lines Adver-
| tfse for secretary or clerk and you
| get scores of applicants. but you wall
your feet off hunting a good cook
| Yet cooking is woman's hereditary
| occupation, and. there are thousand.
| of girls who love it. and who would
/ far rather be in nice kitchen in YOU
house than in your office and whc
would make twice as much money Al
cooking as they do at tipping. but who
! turn down the profession in which
they would shine. because they dom
consider it genteel.
After all poverty and riches ar,
merely comparative terms The rich
| man who is never satisfied is Away,
poor and his money buys him no hap
piness, whereas the poor man who II

| inely rich and his poverty buys hin

BUSINESS SITE CHANGES HANDS
J. p. Jones Purchases John WEIGH
Property on Main Street-Pur-
chase Price $4,000.

There seems to bea ready market
for good business sites in Denison and
during the past few months several
have changed hands. The most re-
cent was the John WEIGH property To-
Gated on north Main street, which was
sold last week to J. p. Jones for $4,000.
This. is the property now occupied by
v. E. Anderson, the tailor and the
Denison Shining Parlor.
Only a few months ago, Mr.. Jones
purchased the Goldheim property just
north of the Crawford County State
Bank building Mr.. Jones has nothing
to say in regard to the purchase of the
Welch property but it is rumored that
a modern two story brick block will be
erected on this site in the near future.
This is one Of the choicest available
sites in the business section of the
city.

COURT WILL ADJOURN FRIDAY
District Court Now in Third Week of
Observation-Disclosures
Case Attracts Attention

The district court is grinding along
on the third week of the term and the
court will adjourn perhaps as early
as Friday as there is some special
work for the court to attend to at JEFF
ferson on Saturday of this week. This
term has been a busy one and a con-
siderable amount of business has been
disposed of by settlement compro-
mise or otherwise. The case of Rein
waldt VS. Hulsebus, which was on trial
a week ago, is still on trial but has
been submitted to the jury where it
is under consideration by that body.
This case has attracted considerable
attention on account of the nature of
the case and the prominence of the
parties in the neighborhood where
they reside. A number of wills have
been probated during the term and on
the whole it may he said that an aver
age amount of business has been
transacted by the court The next
term of court begins the 31st of March
with Judge Hutchinson on the bench.

the Deloit hall last Friday afternoon
for the purpose of discussing ways and
means of organizing farmers eleva-

largely attended and farmers in at
tendance expressed themselves as
heartily in favor of organizing and
building an elevator at this place.
Mr.. Foster of Ames, connected with
the government bureau Of marketing,
was present and gave an interesting
talk on farmers elevators. Mr.. Fos-
ter discussed the proposition from ev-
cry angle and gave, some very valu-
able information.

from Denison and gave a short talk
on the work of the farm bureau, mar
keting, organization, etc. -
Another meeting is to be held in
the near future, at which time it is ex-

Infant Son Of Mr.. and Mrs. William
Esgert Died Thursday, Following
Influenza Attack

Raymond Henry Adolph, little son
of Mr.. and Mrs. William Eggert, resi-
dents Of Hanover township, passed
away on Thursday, February 9Th. af-
ter an illness of only five days dura-
ton. About six weeks ago the little
fellow contracted the influenza, from
which he apparently recovered. How
ever, complications set in and not
withstanding the fact that special
list was called from Omaha nothing
could be done to bring relief.
Raymond was born July 5, 1915, He
was an exceedingly bright little fell
low and endeared himself to everyone
in the community. During his illness
he was most patient, never complain
ing and permitted the nurse and doc
tors to administer to him without a
word.
Besides his grief stricken parents
he leaves to mourn his death one Sis
ter, Hilda.
Funeral services were held from the
family home Saturday afternoon at
1870 o'clock, Rev. Wetzeler of Schles-
wig officiating, after which the little
body was laid to rest in Oakland GEM
etery.

friends in extending heartfelt sympa-
thy to the bereaved parents in this
their hour of deep sorrow.
