Ferid reported the peace situation as
hopeless In his opinion Turkey must
sign the treaty in its present shape. Not
desiring to assume the responsibility
himself. the sultan summoned to the
palace representatives of all classes of
Turks with view to learning their
opinions. At the palace it is believed
that the views of this heterogeneous
council are imma terial, since the sultan
will be compelled to follow the orders
of the entente prime ministers and en-

Meanwhile the few remnants of the

are collapsing rapidly. The only gov

very meager port taxes and from the

HARMONY

It's a good scheme to be
able to play all the instru-
ments in the band. Then
when the leader goes lame
you can take his place. You
will be qualified, for you
will know the difficult parts
and understand more fully
how to encourage the
other players. This does
not imply that you must
excel at the trombone; but
you must know something
of the instrument in order
to lead it
You can't get harmony

ton, nor out of band, I'M
