An intensely interesting story it'll
IA decidedly humorous side to it, is
worked out in the thirteenth episode

She finds from a florist that Hop Sing,

of white roses sent to certain address
but as the delivery records are mixed,
and foar bouquets of white roses have
been delivered from the shop that day.
the florist can not tell her to which
address the roses ordered by Hop Sing
have gone. Lightning thus is compell-
ed to go to all four addresses to stop
Wu's treacherous plan. She first in
terrupts a young man, paving court to
a pretty girl, from presenting his lady

devil incarnate-a designing creature
with a shady past.
This repellant attitude toward the
young bride is prolific of numerous
narrowing scenes and every effort of
Fauvette to win the confidence and
love of her father and mother-in-law is
frustrated. Her husband finally ac-
cepts his parents views and treats his
bride with refined cruelty. a separa-
ton ensues during which Fauette wins
fame as a novelist and she and her
husband are later reunited and live
happily ever after
Miss Ferguson is well supported, her
leading man being David Powell.
Others in the cast are Courtney Foote,
Frank Losee. Cora Williams. Capt.
Charles and Louis Grizel Eve Unsell

]. Shoninger. former president OF the
American Chamber of Commerce in
Paris. He is in America for a brief
stay.
Shoninger, as president of the Union
of Foreign Colonies of France had
much to do with starting the schools
for mutilated soldiers. He says about
100000 F'renchmen were severely
injured in the war.
SCHOOLS were started throughout
France for these crippies while the
first OF the men were waiting for their
artificial limbs to be Bttted.'' said
Shoninger.
I'VE tried as far as possible to have
the man returned to his former sphere
of activities IL his physical condition
would permit. Often he felt that he
could not return to his former occu-
patton One example OF this is a
tailor whose right arm was ampu-
tated We talked him into trying to
learn to sew with his left hand. After
four weeks he could make a pair OF
trousers, in two months he made a
suit of clothes ard in three months he
returned to Algiers to reopen the
tailor shop that he had closed when
the war started.
I'VE graduated from our schools
alone. over 5000 for all of whom were
found situations. We obtained a
generous amount of money from
America in the very beginning. Most
of II through the influence of Mrs.
Edmund L. Baylies. chairman Of the
American committee, and II was due
to her efforts that several millions Of
francs were sent to France. II was
Mrs. Baylies who Interested Edward
T. Stotesbury Of Philadelphia. who
founded one OF our schools and has
turned the money over annually to IL
since 1915. amounting to about $751;
900 a year for the running OF that
school alone.
These are not small schools, but
regular institutions comprising sew
eral buildings. for example, we teach
all trades that would be used In any
small country town or village such
as cobbler carpenter cabinet maker,
the work of the handy man about
town and repairer Of locks. For
those who are unable to learn these
trades we have schools for teaching
typewriting and stenography. English
and French. Our teachers are per-
sons who have been mutilated in the
war.
Then we have wonderful farm

acres. where we teach farming of
every kind, from planting ard harvest

THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS
By Theodore Roosevelt in the Metro
politan Magazine.

By Theodore Roosevelt in the Metro
poitan Magazine.
Without question there is a general
desire for some kind of international
agreement or union or league which
will tend to prevent the recurrence,
or at least to minimize the scope of
the horrors of such hideous disas-
ter to humanity as the world war
which is now closing. In common
with most of my friends l strongly
share this feeling.
If the League of Nations is built on
a document as high-sounding and as
meaningless as the speech in which
Mr.. Wilson laid down his IA points, it
will simply add one more scrap to the
diplomatic waste paper basket Most
of these Il points could be interpreted
to mean anything or nothing. They
were absolutely true to the traditions
of the bad old diplomacy, for any ma
tion could agree to them and yet re-
serve the right to interpret them in
Numerically opposite manner to the
Interpretation that others put upon
them,
Therefore in forming the league let
us face the facts, whether pleasant or
unpleasant, and let US show good faith
with ourselves and with every one
else, The first fact is that nations do
not stand on any real equality. and
that at this moment we are not so
treating them. A couple of years ago
Haiti and San Domingo were two lit
tie independent republics. According
to the principles Mr. Wilson has pub
licly laid down they were as much en-
titled to the right of self-determina-
tion as the United States or France.
and all our dealing with them should
have been frank and above-board- But
in practice Mr.. Wilson conquered
them. killed large numbers of their
people. deprived them of self deter
mination. and kept the action and the
reason for the action absolutely Sc
ret. During the same period. in deal
ing with the affairs of China, huge
but pacifist power, unarmed and
helpless. Mr.. Wilson made his most
important agreement about this peace
full republics future. not with China
at all but with the Empire of Japan.
AS Mr.. Wilson practices only secret
diplomacy we cannot tell what his
justification for these various actions
may be. But it is of course obvious
that it would be absurd to include in
league of nations countries like
China. Mexico, Haiti and San Do
mingo. on make-belieye equality
with the United States and Japan. And
there are dozens of other countries
which stand in the same category.
Moreover. there are some very big
nations whose recent action would
make reliance or any of their prom
ises proof of feeble intellect on our
part. Most certainly Germany and
Turkey ought to sit on the mourner's
bench a good many years before we
admit them to ellowship-Russia's
action during the last year would
make any International guarantee OF
action on her part worth precisely
nothing as a warrant for promise or
action on our part.
Therefore. let US begin by including
