U,S,AND FRANCE AGREE:
INSIST TURK MUST GO
Paris Shares President Wilson's
Views That Sultan Must Quit
Constantinople.

Paris, March 30.--It was said at the
foreign office today that the French point
of view regarding Turkey and Armenia
is in agreement with that of President
Wilson as to the desirability of the largest
possible Armenian state and the expulsion
of the Turks from Constantinople. The
question is raised however as to how these
ends can be achieved without the forces
necessary to deal with the trouble certain
TO result among the mussulman populp-
ton.
President Wilson's note on the Turkish
question was delivered to Premier Miller
and by Ambassador Wallace during the
session of the council of Ambassadors in
Paris yesterday.
1t would require force of several hun
dred thousand men to back up decision
TO eject the Turks entirely from Europe,
a high official said. He pointed out that
the League of Nations, to which would
naturally fall the obligation of dealing
with the situation created by such action
has no force at its command.

AMERICANS ABROAD
IN RED CROSS WORK
United States Citizens Far Away
Enthusiastic Members of the
Fourteenth" Division.

Among the most enthusiastic ane
energetic members Of the American
Red Cross are those citizens of the
United States who live outside the
continental boundaries of their country
sons and daughters of the Stars and
Stripes residing at the far corners OF
the earth.
These people compose the lnsular
and Foreign Division Of the parent or
ganization, generally known as the
"Fourteenth' Division, which has
Jurisdiction of all territory outside
the country proper; that is, Alaska.
Porto Rico, Hawaii. Virgin Islands, the
Philippines, Guam, and even the Is
land of zap, which came under our
flag as a result of the world war. For
the year 1920 this division reported
30,S0S paid up members.
The main object of this division is
to give our citizens everywhere the op-
portunity to participate In the work
Of the organization which stands fol
the best national ideals. Americans
In far places intensely loyal and pa
triotic, treasure their membership In
the Red Cross as the outward ex
preston of their citizenship. 1t is an
other tie to the homeland and to
each other. There are chapters OF
this division In Argentine, Bolivia,
Brazil, Canal zone, Chile, China, Costa
Rica, Cuba, Dominican Republic,
Ecuador, England, France, Guam,
Guatemala, Haiti, Hawaii, Honduras,
Japan, Manchuria, Netherlands, Mica
ragua, Paraguay, Peru, Philippines,
Porto Rico, Siberia, Spain, Sweden,
Switzerland, Syria, Turkey, Uruguay,
Venezuela and Virgin Islands.
During the war these scattered
members of the Red Cross contrib
uted millions in money, and millions
Of dollars worth of necessary articles
for the men in service, and sent many
doctors and nurses to France. At the
same time they carried on an excel,
lent Home Service in their respective
communities for the families of those
who had gone to war, and in some re
gions gave large sums of money and
Unreasonable personal service to the
relief of disaster and disease victims
The division is now establishing
service clubs in foreign ports for the
benefit of sailors in the American Mer
chant Marine, making plans to aid
Americans in trouble in foreign lands
and completing arrangements for Civ
ing immediate adequate relief in case
of Disaster.
Ii is the Fourteenth Divisions part
in the great Peace Time program OF
the American Red Cross.

Poppy as Memorial Flower.

The poppy seems fated to go down
into history as the memorial flower
of the American Legion" 1t was the
common scarlet variety of that flow
er that grows so freely in waste
places that won the regard Of the men
overseas, for it bloomed on, about
them, and often the flower was the
only beautiful thing the soldiers saw
for days upon days.
The poppy is one Of the Oldest
flowers in the worlds literature, and
has been sung in verse and men,
toned in holy books by all races. The
Oriental poppies are of orange-crim-
son with black centers and large seed
bags which burst and scatter the seed
in all directions. Other famous varie-
ties include the slender Iceland poppy,
the yellow California variety and the
big double flowers. None of them have
any perfume, but depend upon their
beauty of form and color to attract
and hold the senses.

A woman's fondest hope is to stay
young. She often resorts to paints,
powders and cosmetics to hide her
years. Some women pay large sums to
so.called "Beauty Doctors" in the be-
lief that money will buy youth. Others
wear girlish dresses, thinking they can
fool the world about their age. But
no one is deceived. The more you try
to hide your age, the more it shows.
There is but one thing that holds old
age back, and that is health. Sickness
and weakness bring old age early in
life. Dr.. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip.
ton is a building-up medicine for
women. It makes them healthy and
strong when they suffer from women's
troubles. 1t keeps them looking young
by keeping them well. It is a woman's
tonic for the frail, the delicate and
those who are nervous, dizzy and who
have backache and dragging pains.

Matrimonial Boom in japan,

japanese find a close connection be-
tween money and marriage by read
ing the lessons of the financial depres-
sion in Japan. The passing of easy
money-making has caused a rush to
the Japanese matrimonial agencies
and women are leading in the rush.
In prosperous times the agency cus-
toners are men looking for wives, but
now, say matrimonial managers, the
old order is reversed. In view Of the
approaching "hard times" women seem
to be seeking safety in the protection
of husbands. One result of the fem
mime advances is q marked increase

DREAM CITIES.

TT is not an uncommon experience
i to find ourselves in a dream city.
Perhaps it is one which we recognize
though 1t may be changed by tile
dream phsntasmagoria; familiar build
ings may lake on a strange aspect, or
strange city buildings appear in un-
expected places. Sometimes we rec
ognize it as a city we have always
wanted to see and never have seen;
and sometimes it appears to be one
of which we lever have even heard.
Not i%nfrequently a name for the place
is suggested in u dream-a name
which we are sure is new to us. 1t
is a cheap way to travel and, the
mystics say, not n bad one. For,
while to visit cities In the waking
life is an expensive operation, to
travel 10 the cities of dreams is &C
counted q most favorable omen and
means riches ahead. Unless indeed
the city he OH fire; then take care Of
your finances or poverty will overtake
you.
1t is generally agreed that if your
| city of dreams is a strange one to
you, and you are lost in it, you will
shortly change your residence with,
rs a rule, favorable results to your
business.
All scientists do not agree with
Freud that every dream is the fulfill
ment Of a wish. but it is easy enough

analysis of our dream will generally
