Peru and Bolivia seem to be itching for

the latter on, for reasons Of it's own. Wash
ington regards the situation as SO critical that
it is exerting every effort to prevent an armed
clash.
Both the principals in the controversy are
members Of the League Of Nations, which is
bound under its agreement to take notice. The
United States, which has assumed the respon-
sibilities OF special guardian under the Monroe
doctrine Of all Latin-America, does not belong
to the league, though first to advance the idea
and most active in getting it put into concrete
form.
Several questions arise One is who really
is responsible for keeping peace? Another, to
what extent can the United States lawfully CO
operate with the League Of Nations. which #
has refused to ratify, in dealing with stus-
ton that it has specifically reserved to its own
Jurisdiction? Could We permit the league to

Stabilizing the Coal Supply.

Senator Frelinghuysen is on the right track
with legislation he proposes to stabilize coal
production. That is more important from
the standpoint of the coal industry than an in
crease in wages for the miners and in price
for the dealers. In addition it points the way
to better service and a cheaper product for
the consumer.
The senator got his ideas from the investi-
CATION of the coal business made by the COM
mittee of which he is chairman. His plan is
to encourage buying fuel in dull season by
manipulation of freight rates. He would cut
standard tariffs Is per cent in spring and sum-
mer and increase them Is per cent in fall and
winter The difference in retail price thus Gre
ated would furnish strong inducement for
the public to provide storage capacity and
lay in as great supply as possible during
the seasons when the mines of the country
heretofore have been working only a few days
| each month and the railroad yards have been
| congested with idle coal cars.
The coal miner wants steady work. rather
than heavy increase in rate of compensation
| The coal dealers want an all the year round
business that will enable them to keep their
| establishments going al something like uni
| form pace, and the railroads want to be rid
of responsibility for transporting most of the
coal supply when weather conditions and com.
| peting traffic are against economical and eff.
Gent operation. A price inducement to the
| public is the simplest and most effective plar
to stabilize the business and manipulation O.

Alexa, charming as well as beau

and asked Theodore about flowers

brusquely, and finally ended the
conversation with the comment
that he never could get anything
out of talking to a girl, anyhow.
Alexa was uncertain whether to be
amused or miserable.
Happily Mrs. Molly came to the
rescue. "Alexa, We are going to
expect you to help get Ted &C
quainted here. He's such a strang-
er, and is so used to grinding that
nothing will be so good for him as
society and the friendship Of a
sensible and pretty girl"

each Of the horizontal, making just
200 beats to the whole piece. and

Camilla.
Camilla, Of late years so enor-
mously popular through the revival
of Dumas Camille" did not gain
her name, like the heroine OF the
tragedy through the flower camel
liza, but had her origin rather in
ancient Roman history.
The first Camilla was a war-like
nymph dedicated to the service of
Diana, goddess of the chase. She
was celebrated in the Aeneid. as
Camilla, though her name is said
to have been Casmilla. Camilla is
an Etruscan word and was applied
to the youth OF both sexes who
held solemn Office. Thus Camilla
came to mean an attendant at a
sacrifice and is translated as such
today.
1t seems rather curious that no
connection can be established with
the exquisite white flower with
which it is frequently confused in
modern times, especially by the
French. The history Of Camilla
shows that she was taken over by
the French because they have al
