ent governme object to such a

istration's policy toward Lithuania,
the Uraine. Esthonia and Letvia
clashes with England's and Italy's,
not to mention Lenine's.
The State Department favors pri-
vate trading with Russia. but op-
poses any plan involving the diplo-
matte recognition of the Soviet
Official America claims that the
Russian Co-operatives are political
ly controlled by the Moscow gov
ernment and is antagonistic to any
official allied relations with them.
Until recently Lenine was willing
to make all sorts of concessions
and compromises to obtain peace.
Bolshevism has since become a
pretty independent cock on the IN
ternational diplomatic walk. Mos
COW is today inclined to take as
well as to give and is allegedly in =
sisting upon the Japanese with
drawal from Siberia.
In it's overtures with England and
Italy the Moscow government is
using Brig. Gen. william S. Graves
as a boomerang against Washing
ton. General Graves was the com
mander of the American forces
which sailed from Vladivostok some
days ago. A statement he is re-
ported to have made upon reach
ing Manila is said to be still rank

Dispatches declare Graves as

are "all working for peace and for

sic Club at the home of Miss Edith
Quinn Wednesday afternoon. Mrs.

honor to the club to be in receipt of
letter from Mrs. w. ]. Hon, Mem

see State Federation of Music Clubs,
extending to the local organization
an invitation to unite with the State
and national federation; and it was
the unanimous decision of the club
body to acknowledge the receipt of
Mrs. Hons kind communication with
an enthusiastic acceptance Of the in
vitation from the federation. AS a
result of this forward step the Mat
inee Music Club will from now on
be closely associated with the must

tion.
The thirty minutes devoted to
the lesson, led by Mrs. G. G. Conn,
was spent in a worthwhile way.

thoroughly discussed and the tech

these principles might be termed
beacon lights to those who grope in
musical darkness. Indeed, major
ity of music lovers are so ignorant
of what constitutes correct singing
that when they hear a voice which
gives excitement to their nerves by
its sensational qualities, they ex-
press their hearty approval, regard
less of the many other faults which
should be condemned. AS an exam
