many topical names, for the most
part ugly and incongruous. An APP
peal has now been issued that this
custom cease, and that the ordinary
christian names, drawn from the
Calendar of Saints, should once more
become universal throughout the
country Among the names given to
some of the unfortunate children
born during the war, Joffrette and
Joffreta are common. A father of
Bordeaux was anxious to christen his
daughter Revanche and this name
was also suggested by. an inhabitant
of Montreuil for his son. Place
names, such as Namur Liege, lie
Marne, Alsace-L Lorraine, Mulhouse,
Verdun and Salonique are also now
quite usual. As for Frances and the
Victories it should be difficult to
count them.

plain today in informal discussion Of
the message read to the two houses
yesterday.
The Republicans said in effect that
while they agree with Wilson that the
reconstruction job should be finished
as soon as possible, there is no hope
of agreeing with him as to methods to
be followed.
They prefer, therefore, during the
next three months to study domestic
needs and to legislate on them
