COUNCIL OF FOUR
IN EXTRA SESSION
Lloyd George Requests Special Sit
tins-Wilson at Meeting-Matters
of Importance Demanding Pres.
ence of British Premier Taken
Up for Consideration. ..
Statement by Wilson. .

son VIII issue SCdCeIueuI IOuloiIoW,
presumably referring to the accom-
plishments of the council of four
and of the general situation to date.
The Italian and Jugo-Slav ques-
tions will come before the. council
tomorrow, Arthur J. Balfour sitting
in place of Mr.. Lloyd George.
Paris, April 13.-Quite unexpect-
edly meeting of the council of four
was held at o'clock this evening
with President Wilson in attendance.
The call for the meeting resulted
from Premier Lloyd Georges deter
mination to return to London TO-
morrow.
The British premier will remain
in his home country for a week, and
because of his lengthy absence from
Paris, he and his colleagues decided
to request final meeting today for
the purpose of closing certain phases
of the discussion which the premier
considered best for him to attend to
personally instead of leaving the
task o Arthur j; .Balfour, his substi-
tute in the council. .. .
During the early hours of the day
the president remained at home but
later went driving with Mrs Wilson.
A bright sunshine after rain. in the
forenoon had filled the streets with
Parisians to whom the sight of the
presidents car has become familiar.
Little trace of the Presidents re-
cent illness remains but the large
amount of work of the past week ia
tigued him so much that he declared
he would do absolutely no work to-
day.
The only callers were the former
ambassador and Mrs. Sharp, who
came to say good bye, as they are
leaving for the United States Mon
day.

NEVER TOO LATE TO START
Financial independence Can Usually
Be Achieved, Even Though One
May Begin Badly.

It may be started In a general but
positive way that nothing was ever ac-
compllshed without start. II false
start be had-and many who read this
have probably made false starts--it is
better than no start, in the same way
that some of our ancestors worshiped
miscellaneous gods and with feet Of
clay out of mistaken but good inten-
tions, Victor Devilllers writes in the
Magazine Of Wall Street. They made
n start and meant well, and those prin-
ciples bring results. The courageous
ones who will face the starting post
are sure to finish reasonably close to
the goal by will, patience and study.
Aiming at financial independence at
30" should commence at 20 years of
age. II possible. II the investor has
missed his chance Of commencing so
early he should begin "as soon as pos
sible." 1t Is never too late to begin,
as the handicap of hardness may be
overcome by the sure, swift work of
compound interest, which once started
on its Journey goes on interminably,
ever growing larger and stronger as
the years 60 by.

"The town crier of yore." said OIL
yer Oddways, "who sauntered up and
down. ringing his bell and proclaiming

turn. But now we have another town
crier-the lugubrious pest who bewails
the sad and sinsick condition of our
little city, the awful degradation of
the youth Of today. the passing Of the
times when gentlemen Of the old school
rode in stage coaches for penance and
pulled each others noses for pastime,
sadIy contrasts the abysmal vacuIty
Of the statesmen of today compared
with the leonine and oratorical drunk
ards of the past, bemoans the fact
that there has been no real acting

here to keep all enterprise out and all
worthy men down. Yes, the town crier

MANY KENTUCKY
MEN WOUNDED

The list of men from Kentucky
who have been wounded is not yet
complete. The Kentucky Council OF
Defense, through its State Historian
and county Historians in each county
has been compiling from the United
States Official Bulletin, and through
newspaper reports and other sources
a list of the wounded.
1t is hoped that this list will be
complete within a few months. Lists
of wounded are still being published
by the War Department. The Ken
lucky list now contains more than
5000 names.
AS far as compiled, this list shows
some very interesting figures;
In many counties there are more
deaths shown than wounds. This is
probably due to the fact that many
men died from disease in camps in
this country, as well as overseas dur
ing the influenza epidemic.
The latest figures published by the
War Department show that 203, 1853
American soldiers were wounded
and that eigthy-feve per cent of
them returned to duty.
Among the larger counties the
are as follows:
