Death OF a Little Baby.

Pierce Eugene Banks, son of Mr..
and Mrs. Pierce Banks. was born
October 5, 1919, and died February Z,
1920, aged 4 months and 2 days. He
lived only long enough for US to love
him. Dear little boy. How we miss
his bright eyes and sweet little smile.
But our comfort is that he has gone
to ''the house of many mansions" the
home so bright, where he is waiting
and watching for us to come. He was
too pure for this world. God has
taken the little bud to blossom in the
heavenly home. 1t was hard, so hard,
to see the grave close over the dear
form, and to go back to the home he
had brought so much sunshine in; but
God knew best, and we shall always
try so to live that one day, though he
can not come to US, we may go to
him.

COURT SAYS ONE DRUNK DUES NOT
 BREAK CONTRACT
TRepublIcan A. P. Leased wlrel

NEW YORK, Dec. 24-A single act of drunkenness is not sufficient under the laws of the state of New York to justify the discharge of an employe who is under contract, two justices of today. A third justice dissented and declared that a single act of drunk enness during business hours is fin excusable."
 The decision was given at an ap- pellate term of the Supreme court in a suit brought by Frederick W. Herbert real estate agent, against his em- ployers who had discharged him when he was found drunk. The case was tried in the city court and dismissed. Herbert appealed. The decision to- day directed a new trial upon which the court held that the question should be left to jury.
 Justice Mullan, in the majority de- cision, held that the courts are not warranted in attempting to create and enforce a higher standard than that set by the average of mankind in the lcommunity.''
 "The day may come" he added, when intoxication will be such a cause for disgrace that a single instance of il will be sufficient to justify the dis charge of a servant by his master be- cause of it, as 8. matter of law, regard Hess of the nature of the services or the effect of the insobriety upon the masters business"

German Laboratory Menace
 That Threatens France In Future; Metz Deputy Says Reprisals Will Follow Any Barbarous German Act
IRepubIIcan A. P. Leased Wlrel

PARIS, Dec 24.-Andrew Lefevre to- day completed his speech begun last night in the chamber in which he ex- plained the differences with his cabi- net colleagues which brought about his resignation, and gave his reasons for insisting on two years service with the colors while the other ministers favored from F to IS months. Today he outlined further reasons, saying il was the German laboratory that France had to fear more than anything else.
 That is what we ought to keep un- der control" declared M Lefevre
 We should prevent science from giving q weak German army a power ful weapon of surprise
 The new war minister. Flaminius Raiberti replying, said he was in ac- cord with Marshals Foch and Petain in advocating a reduction of the period of military service and lighteneing the army budget He announced that the Germans had destroyed or delivered 3S96 cannon and that 60.000 more were in the course of delivery.
 Premier Leygeus took the floor again today and recalled that France held bridgeheads on the Rhine which sht was supposed to give up in 15 years only if Germany executed the treaty O. Versailles. He said that of 60, ,000 mo tors and 1S0o0 airplanes Germany possessed after the signing of the ar. mistice. she had delivered 25,000 mo. tors and 16.000 airplanes.
 Andre Tardieu interrupted the pre- | mier to ask if it were not fact tha l the Franco American treaty not hay | ing been ratified and the Franco Brit 1 ish treaty being ineffective for tha treason, France, according to the treat, of Versailles could hold the left banl | of the Rhine until Germany executes the treaty terms. To this NJ. Leygue replied:
 Tt is quite true that we no longe are in the position we were in 191 menaced by a sudden attack We are on the left bank of the Rhine
 fe hold the bridgeheads. TheN Ger mans cannot maintain single soldle in the bone of protection and that i a perpetual provision. The bridge 1 heads we hold we are called on t | abandon in 15 years if the treaty is ex ecuted, but if the treaty terms are no carried out we will continue to hol them.'
 General de Maud Huy, deputy fo
 Metz then shouted
 We are in Germany and if the Ger mans want to use barbarous method
 if they burn 10 houses i Paris from airplanes we shal
 burn 100 in Frankfort and 100 il | Mayence. Let Germany understan that. It is the only means to preven disloyal barbarous warfare"

He smilingly shrugged his shoulders regarding the uncertainty as to whether the British and French ministers would remain in Athens.
 They don't know what they are go- ing to do," he said. "Yesterday they expected to go; today they are uncer- tain. Maybe tomorrow they again vii change their minds"
