FRANCE STICKS
TO THE TERMS

Vote of 395 to SO
VOTE OF CONFIDENCE
GIVEN TO BRAND
Premier Will Go to Confer
ence With Germany
With Such Backing

Paris, Feb. 10--Premier BRAND will
face the delegates Of Germany at the
London conference on March ! with
a mandate from the French republic
supporting the PREPARATIONS terms
framed by the supreme allied council
in this city two years ago This fact
became evident late last evening when
the chamber Of deputies began vote
of confidence and ballot on the rati-
fication of the allied terms.
The reparatjens agreement was ap-
proved by vote of 305 to SO, while
Premier BRAND was given a vote OF
confidence, 1897 to 1875. Acceptance OF
the terms framed by the allies during
the meeting Of the supreme council
in Paris was opposed by members OF
the Clemenceau ministry, among them
Andre Tardeau and Louis Klotz. Both
insisted the PREPARATIONS agreement
amounted virtually to an amendment
Of the Versailles treaty and the Ger
mans had received better terms than
had been given her in the original
document.
NJ. BRAND made it clear that Ger
many would be compelled to meet the
allied demands, and that France stood
ready to enforce the decisions OF the
supreme council regarding reparations
and disarmament.

NEW ERA IN HAWAII.
Because of Attempt of People to Get
Together.

Honolulu, T. H.. Feb. 10 CORES
pendent Of the Associated Press -
That a new era has been begun which
win affect, not only the territory of
Hawaii. but the relations of the Unit
cd States and Japan as whole, was
the statement made by Lorrin A..
Thurston, publisher of the Honolulu
COMMERCIAL Advertiser and a Hawai-
ian born American, at the recent open
ing Of classes in the English language,
American institutions and American
ideals. which are being attended by
Japanese Of the territory, principally
teachers Of japanese language schools.
"This marks the beginning OF new
era" said Mr., Thurston, because IT
Il the first attempt of the representa-
tives of the two peoples of an entire
community TO get together and solve
their differences by cooperation
DR.. II. B. Schwartz. field secretary
of Japanese work Of the Methodist
Episcopal church In Hawaii, said;
Never has any such body Of individ-
uals voluntarily associated themselves
TO study the institutions, ideals and
history Of a country Of which they are
residents, but not citizens
The organization Of the special
classes for Japanese followed the pass
ing by the recent special session of
the legislature of a foreign language
school bill. which limits Japanese and
other language schools in the territory
10 one hours instruction daily, six
DAYS week, and places their teachers
and textbooks under the supervision OF
the territorial department of public
instruction. The passing OF the bill
which was suggested by japanese lead
ers N Honolulu marked the close Of a
lengthy and some times acrimonious
discussion on the whole subject of Ian
guage schools.

UNIQUE FIGURE nv
BASEBALL HISTORY
Frank c. Bancroft Was Connected with
the Game Ever Since Civil
War Days.

Cincinnati. O., Feb. l0.--When Frank
C. Bancrift, for 30 years business man
ager Of the Cincinnati National league
baseball club, was succeeded in that po-
sition recently by Frank Behle, an at.
tache of the probate court of this
city, one of the most picturesque fig
ures that baseball ever produced passed
from the national game.
Bancroft is i'll with neuritis and he
has been assured by President Garry
Hermann of the club. that his salary
will go on just the same. He became
interested in baseball within a few
years after the close of the Civil war
In which he served as a drummer boy
with a New England regiment.
He saw the possibilities In the pro-
fessional angle Of the game around
1874 when he became identified with
the New Bedford team Later he joined
the Worcester team More than 40
years ago he developed two men whose
names will live forever in the annals
of the game-Harry Stovey, king Of
base runners for all time, and Lee
Richmond. perhaps the greatest left
handed pitcher of the game. In all
baseball history there have been eight
games pitched where no man reached
first base against the winning pitcher
and in less than two years time, Rich
mond pitched two of these contests.
In 1854, Bancroft managed the ia
nous old Providence team that parti-
cipated in the first world series He
piloted the team through the immortal
campaign when Charles t"Old Hoss J
Radbourne made the pitching record
that may never be equaled "Banny's'
team won the worlds championship
banner that year.
In 1891 Bancroft appeared in Cinein-
natl as manager of Mike Kelly's Play
ers league aggregation and he remained
after "kelly's Killers" had gone. He
was engaged by the late John T..
Brush, then pref lent Of the Cinein-
natl club. to handle the business af-
fairs of the club. In the generation
that followed Bancroft became one Of
the most notable of baseball figures.
He piloted the reds everywhere, ar
ranged their training tours, took them
transforming in the fall and between
times took clubs to Cuba, Hawaii and
California.
In Cuba he is known as 'the father
Of baseball" as il was he who took
the first team OF professional players
TO the island. He is now rs years Of
age.

LETTERS TOTHE EDITOR
How to Study the Bible Effectively.


Editor, Times. In these days OF in
creased interest in the study of the Bible
and the formation of classes for train
ing the teachers Of the Sunday schools,
the writer has been asked several
times to place before the public the
general plan used by Miss Grace SAKE
In connection with the Billy Sunday
evangelstic services.
Mr. Sunday has little faith that new
converts, babes in Christ" will grow
IN grace and the knowledge of God and
His plans unless they become Bible
students, seekers after light and truth.
He does not believe normal child
should always remain in cradle
Miss Sake has TO all appearances
made the Book deep study and there
fore she speaks as person of author
ity. Her general plan is TO make the
teaching so simple that even child
can understand it, yet opportunity IS
given for deepest study and thought
well adapted to the educated and ma
ture mind.
Miss SAKE believes real Bible study
should stimulate TO original thought
the daily practice. She advises care
full and prayerful reading of chap
ter or portion of scripture, ascertain
inc the author and the chief message
he is seeking TO give, to whom and
when written. She advises taking note
of the various persons mentioned, VINO
they were, etc, also what was taught
regarding Christ.
Miss SAKE believes study should be
something more than an intellectual
feast II should serve as food for the
soul and guidance for the life. There
fore all her teaching i clinehed with
such questions as the followingi
In this lesson or chapter Is there
any lesson for me:
il there any example recorded which
| should follow or error which | should
avoid!
Is there any duty for me to per.
form or command which ] should obey !
IL there any promise for me to claim

only be clearly portrayed but should
be Incorporated into life.

STARTLED BY POLICEMAN.
He Deserted Auto Load of Liquor and
Two Passengers.

Aibemarle, n c., Feb. l0.-The truth
of the proyerb, "the wicked flee when
no man pursueth," probably will never
be doubted by Vance Lowder, night
policeman of this town.
The other night when Lowder was
standing in darkened doorway, an
automobile whizzed by, ibut stopped
about hundred yards down the
street. The chauffeur promptly hoppcd
out, tinkered bit on the motor, then
crawled underneath the machine TO To-

therein.
Investigation showed that the car
was carrying several gallons of North

DUTIES OF PUBLIC
TO TROLLEY LINES
Are Stated by r. K. Shrader of the
American Electric Railway
Association.

Chicago, Feb. l0.-The public, in its
own selfish interest, if for no other
reason, must accord public utilities
the earning power to enable them to
function properly, F. X. Shrader OF
Chicago declared day before the
mid year conference of the American
Electric Railway association.
Perhaps the one most essential
prerequisite to street railway credit
is a satisfactory franchise situation,
Nh. Shrader said. Investors, after
numerous bitter experiences. are not
now in frame of mind to place their
funds in street railway property, or
any other public utility for that mat
ter, unless they are first thoroughly
convinced that the basic rights and
pivileges to conduct a paying bust
ness are fully protected. In recent
wears, two very important develop
ments in this field have taken place,
viz, the. granting of so-called indie
terminate permits, as practiced in the
state Of Wisconsin. and the movement
toward service .at-cost franchises.
While the underlying principles of
the cost of service or flexible fare
franchise is without any doubt eco.
nomically correct, in practice it has
not yet, so far as | am aware, meas
ured fully up to expectations from a
credit standpoint. The goal toward
which the industry must strive is reg
uIation, practically automatic in its
operation and sufficiently responsive to
promptly administer adequate relief in
periods Of high costs and thus enable
the corporation to maintain unim-
paired, its earning power and credit.
The public must come to recognize that
the utility business is essentially pub.
lie business, and for the welfare of the
public itself it must be accorded the
earning power to enable it TO fune-
ton properly.
"At the moment, there are few elee-
trio railway companies that can fulfill
the requirements of the Investment
market. IF net earnings can be i'm
proved and by one of several devices
stabilized, then they may look forward
to an increasing ability to finance by
mortgage securities. Their escrow
bonds may later become marketable
when interest rates have fallen appre-
ciatively below present levels. But
there is not much to be gained in COW
ering in greater detail the Kind of
mortgage securities that the railways
can SELL until they have enjoyed a
subs tantial increase in net earnings.
ut is the duty of the owners and

LINcoLN'S BIRTHDAY.
Some of the Lessons are Set Forth by
Mrs. LaPoint.

Editor. Barre Times; Again we
would ask for little space in your
paper that we may call attention to

Abraham Lincoln, the man who said:

out giving up the principle Of liberty,

assassinated on this spot than surren.

martyr. but though dead he yet speak
eth. Lincoln said no men living were
more worthy to be trusted than those
who came up from poverty. he also said
that God must have liked the common
people or he would not have made 50
many.
our government was not established
that one man might do with himself
as he pleases and with another man
too. Abraham Lincoln is one Of Amer.
ica's immortals. He grows in the af-
fections Of the people with each pass

birth. his boyhood his political con
tests. his public life and his tragical
