is quite the homiest person you ever
saw, with steel trimmed spectacles and
jolly comfortable dress of dull red.
She is of wood, and her place is on the
top of your sewing table. For Auntie
Stitch, in addition to being most or
namental, also has a use. She comes
apart in the center. and she conceals
within her person a wooden rod, on
which is wound some black thread and
some white thread. And in the center
of the rod are needles. Auntie Stitch

During the war there was a woman
who worked with the Red Cross several
days week and gave the rest of her
time to the National League for Wom-

made dressings, sewed on the machine,
put up jelly, served at canteens-did
everything there was to do every day,
and cooked the meals for her family in
the bargain. Other women would come
to the workroom to give their Two

but this one woman gave so much more
that it made them feel nothing less than
slackers and traitors.
But now it's over. The other women
have put aside their long white head
dresses, and their allover aprons are
kept for housecleaning days. They are
still working at home and in their

COAL fire DAMAGES
C|TY'S LIGHT PLANT

A blaze in one Of the coal store
houses at the Municipal Electric plant,
believed to have been caused by spon-
taneous combustion, resulted in a loss
Of about $4,000 from damage to prop
erty and burning of coal, Thursday.
The fire, which started about 4 a.
m. Thursday and was not gotten under
control until about o'clock, was in
a building which adjoins the boiler
house of the municipal plant and Is
separated from it by a brick fire wall,
which is in a bad state Of repair
Chief Miller and the crews Of several
fire companies were successful in pre-
venting the flames spreading into the
boiler house.
The roof over the coal house is sup
ported by heavy timbers. After these
timbers had been partly burned
through there was a coal slide, under
which the supporting timbers gave
away, causing the roof to collapse on
the burning coal. The shifting Of the
coal caused a considerable quantity
0 coal gas to escape This ignited
and an immense curtain of flame il
Illuminated the skies for several
minutes.
Practically no damage was done to
the boiler house, which is soon to be
reconstructed. There is now pending
before council an ordinance appro.
priating $12,500 for the construction
OF a new wall between the boiler house
and coal storage house and for new
roof over the boiler house.

A letter written by S. o. Yates, we'll

he urged the city to take steps to have
the city's weed crop harvested with
out further loss of time for the par

In his letter Mr.. Yates stated that
because of the vast amount Of rag
weed now growing on vacant lots
about the city unfortunate hayfever-
ties were sneezing their heads off. He
said many of the victims of this dis
ease were like himself, unable to go
to the far north to seek relief from
their affliction.
The board was advised that there
is a city ordinance which requires
owners of vacant lots to cut weeds
which grow thereon. A violation OF
the ordinance can be punished by a
fine not to exceed $40 and costs
The board decided to enforce the
ordinance.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Aug. 26.-Law re
forms and methods of elevating the
standards of the legal profession We're
under consideration at the annual con-
vention of the American Bar ssocia-

The need for maintaining profes.
sional standards of unimpeachable
character was emphasized in reports
submitted to the convention both by
the committee on professional ethics
and grievances and the newly organ
ICED section of the conference of bar
association delegates.
The latter body recommended that
the bars of the several states be IN
corporated and that all members be
members of the corporation and sub

report also urged closer cooperation
among bar associations.
The question of bar incorporation
was treated also by the committee on
professional ethics and grievances,
which, it was stated, has conducted q

NEW YORK, Aug. 26. - That the
general suffering in Europe since the
cessation of the war is due more to
the treaty Of peace signed at Yer
sailles than to the war itself is the
conclusion of Otto H. Kahn, banker,
who recently returned from England,
France and Italy.
Instead of creating peace" Mr..
Kahn says, the treaty has merely
created dissention among the coun
tries of Europe.
The banker reached his views after
many talks with economists, bankers
and statesmen. He said:
Those who framed the peace treaty
of Versailles, while affirming and,
doubt not, intending allegiance to the
hopes and aspirations Of the liberal
opinion of the world. have to a consid
cradle extent negatived them in fact.
Put Commerce Out OF Joint.
"Bartering and compromising and
sowing the seeds of dissension among
one another and of discord throughout
the world, they have set up disposi
tions which have resulted in leaving

intercourse, indeed the very conditions

Treaty Brings Worse Woe Than War, Says Kahn

Of existence. completely out Of joint
In almost all of Europe east OF the
Rhine.
They have ignored what was among
the most essential OF all the elements
involved in readjusting the world from
war to peace. namely, the element OF
practical economics.
They have produced a treaty so
little consonant with the realities that
from the day of it's PRONUNCIATION to
this day 1t has been a continuous OBJ
ject of controversy. of readjustment,
OF Interpretation, of haggling ana
whiting down, and has consumed the
time, thought and energies Of the lead
ing statesmen in the various countries
to the detriment of domestic affairs.
"Solemnly proclaiming the principle
of 'self-determination' they have grant
ed or withheld it, according to their
discretion. They have involved them
selves IN commitments of sovereignty,
control or regulation throughout the
world calling for military and other ef-
forts, the cost and burden of which
go beyond the present capacities of
their respective nations and beyond
the sanction of public opinion.
They injected into the matter-of-
fact business of making peace with
Germany-a business which demanded
promptitude and finality-the complex
tiles, delays and uncertainties of a
world-embracing ethical experiment
that called for calm and detached and
separate consideration and treatment.
Far From True League.
They have mishandled the fine and
universally acclaimed conception OF
an association Of nations to maintain
and strengthen international law and
preserve peace, and, seeking to utilize
it for unrelated purposes. have evolved
an instrument largely divergent from
that conception.
Thus and in other ways, instead OF
peace and settlement they have
wrought dispeace and unsettlement
1T would be futile to discuss the
distribution Of responsibility among
the treaty makers for the sad disillu
sionment which the outcome and Sc
quel of the Versailles conference
brought to a world that stood ready
and expectant to follow a lead worthy
OF the high inspiration which had
actuated the people of the allied ma
tions and America during the war

MEXICO CITY. Aug. 25.-Reports
that Pedro Zamora, the Jalisco bandit.
had liberated American and British
captives held by him since his raid on
the village of Cualea, have not as yet
been confirmed by advices to the war
department.
Rumors that Zamora had been cap

turning him over to government troops
