THE BURDEN OF FRANCE.

II Is unfortunate that France feels obliged to act
alone in holding the Germans to those terms of the
peace treaty which have do with vital considera-
tions OF Frances own safety. If there is other
practical way, however. France is to be commended
rather than criticised for her recent conduct Ger
many must be kept IN submission until her OBJ
legations have been met; and to keep her submis
sive. it is well for Germany taught a
lesson.
It is easy and natural for England and still
for America. to minimize the French sense of peril
France has Germany always her border. She has
suffered too much to endure patiently any further
depredations or any condition that might make the
Germans dangerous hereafter. France has greater
stake than any other allied nation in the fulfment
OF Germany's peace pledges. France is especially
concerned with the status of the Ruhr basin, be-
cause she depends chiefly that district for the
German supplies due her in compensation for
her own wrecked mines
But over and above all other direct considera-
the fact Of Germanys persistent evasion of
the Leace terms She has maintained larger army
she is entitled TO. She has kept thousands of
airplanes when she should have none. She has
elected to demObfize her naval forces She has no;
yielded up submarines and other vessels as she
promised DO. She has not delivered the quantity
OF coal agreed upon. She has not Shown honest
intent and sincere desire to discharge treaty
obligations There is nothing left then, but coercion.
The pity of it is that upon France alone
posed the task Of holding Germany to her duty.
This properly the work Of all the allies. Great
Britain. Italy and America ought to be by frances
size And If they were. there would be force
CURED. a stern command would suffice.
That stern command cannot be given without the
presence and cooperation OF the United States in the
allied councils. The most pointed lesson OF this
whole unpleasant business is that France has TO use
force run the risk Of destroying the little
remaining unity among the allies, because the
United States refuses ratfy the peace treaty AMI

STATE FORESTS.

Another state has taken definite action toward
the renewal OF its forests. Pennsylvania has just
purchased outright over 100000 acres Of cut-over
waste lands and intends 70 extend this TO g..
600 0O0 acres. Most Of this land lies in large
pact areas which may be easily and economically
managed and protected from fire loss 1t is estimated
that the public forest lands already worth
double the cost oe acquisition plus all outlay for
maintenance.
A number OF fine public interests will be served
by these state lands. They will be used canning
sites AMI recreation centers for the public. They
will encourage the development and better care of
privately owned forests because they will create
and maintain wood using industries and will insure
a growing force OF trained foresers and better
eraI fire protection Because it is forced by fl
nancial need to cut its young trees, the state
effect a sustained cut from its forest and
encourage the growth of larger sizes and heavier
yields per acre. In the future this will n
steady income for the public from its forests
If every state in the Union took its forest prob
lens seriously and went about its forest develop
ment and preservation promptly and generously. a
great deal OF good work would be accomplished in
a comparatively short time. Public opinion too
would be developed which would help to advance
national forestry as well to regulate private tim
industries least sufficiently reduce the
rible waste and loss that exists today.

EAIAIELINE.


| Emmeline is another OF the fem
mime names produced from the root
Anal. Of which Amelia has been
already discussed. But Emmeiine,
which has often been enormously
confused as a derivative OF Emma,
has an interesting history. The
name, which is translated TO mean
work serpent, has no connection
other than by similarity of letters,
with Emma, which means grand
mother"
Emmeline came into existence
through the queens of Navarro and
the Austrias. The sister Of Sancho
l. Of Navarro, who married Al
phonse the Great, was called Anne
lima But the ladies OF Navarro
were not contented with a single
name-they must have equivalents
So Amelina was also Simena and
Ximena.
Ximena survived the longest Of
any OF her other names and came
to be popular in all classes. The
wife OF the Cid was so called but
the French turned her into Chimene
The English promptly called this
strange name Emmeline and even
France now has an Emmeline. The
form Emylyne, which appears IN
old ballad poetry is identical with
Emmeline.
The latter name is a bit long for
Americans and though il is properly
given in Baptism, it unfortunately
too quickly degenerates into the
handy "Emmy"-which is no name

Jasper IS Emmeline's talismanic
gem. The brilliant green stone Will

particularly OF snakes. A prayer

THE LUCKY FARMERS.

Sen. Capper of Kansas, in D. recent article in The
Journal OF the American Bankers association.
writes:
THE average buying power OF the American
farmer has increased during the last four years
from $500 20 $4,000 a year, over 100 percent,
while the average buying power OF the city man
remains about $500 year
'TwO-thrds of all farmers in America
their homes; contrast this with the knowl-
edge that two-thirds OF all city-dwellers rent.
Farming is profession, and despite the many
exceptions TO the rule, profession which is
passed down from father TO through many
generations; in other words, there is a per-
manency both to the profession itself and about
the who follow it."
An increase of over 100 percent in buying power
surely a fair degree of prosperity especially
when one considers how many things the farmer
not have buy. In spite of all its drawbacks
the farmers business still about the most indie
pendent and the most dependable in its returns.
As the date of the convention approaches
