Meantime, a cessation of hostilities between the Turks and Greeks will be declared.
 The attitude of the Turks made an excellent impression upon the con- ferees. Premier Briand of France declared after the sitting that the conference had gone a long way to- ward a settlement.
 Bekir Samy Bey, head of the na- tionalist delegation, told the conferees
New Britain herald., 1921-02-24

the Turks rested their case on the principle of the treaty of Sevres, namely the rights of nationalities. The Turks. he said, were asking for smyrna and Thrace because in the populations of those provinces the Turks were in the majority.
 Premier Lloyd George asked if he could support this by statistics, and Bekir replied that he could do so by both Turkish and foreign statistics.
 Premier Kalogeropoulos of Greece was furnished copies of the docu- ments, and the Greeks, it was an- nounced, would be given an oppor- tunity to reply this afternoon.

Every time you see an old maid you
turn green with envy, and you have
told me million times that woman
sacrifices her liberty and independ-
ence the minute she inveigles man
TO the altar and vows to love, cherish
and protect him. You have said in my
presence that the spinster is the only
woman who is her own boss.
1T doesn't take the ingenuity of a
Sherlock Holmes to deduce from your
remarks that you consider matrimOny
total loss. Why, then, Mrs. James
worthy, are you forever trying to be-
guile your friends into that condition
of misery? Of course, you can't ex-
plain; neither can any woman explain.
Matchmaking just comes natural to
all of you.
when ] am looking for all kinds of
plain and fancy trouble, I'll begin
matching up the young men and w0m-
en- Of my acquaintance. But not until
| am suffering for an invoice of grief.
/ might persuade my friends to invest
In western silver mine, or buy patent
rights in q revolving churn, but you'll
never see Elijah Jamesworthy boost
! Ing matrimony in your indiscriminate
way. If two young people got married
through your ring generalship, and
they found that each had drawn gold
brick, they would hate you as long
as they lived, and would always speak
of you as an old busybody with nose
too long for legitimate purposes, and
they'd make faces at you whenever
you met them on the street.
do you ever think of your respon-
sibility when you try to boom the Or
ange blossom market? Does it ever
occur to you, at such times, that you
are rushing in where angels fear to
| tread?
Now. just consider Sarah Jane Fa-
vorite and Charles Augustus Terwil-
| Tiger, who will be railroaded to the
altar if you have your way. I admit
that they make handsome pair
Sarah is blonde with pug nose
and Charles Augustus is a brunette
with a nose like Roman senator.
They afford a pleasing contrast. But
appearances count for little, Mrs.
Jamesworthy, when the real business
Of married life begins.
"Sarah has basked in the lap of lux
ury all her days, and she has the idea
that money grows on vines like Gu
cumbers. ! don't suppose she ever
knew what it means to need fifty cents
or q dollar. When she wants anything
she goes to the store and gets It, and
has it charged to her father. If there
is one word in the dictionary she isn't
familiar with, that word is retrench-
ment.
"Charles Augustus on the other
hand, had hard shedding all through
his boyhOOd. AS q result of his ex-
perience he has an exaggerated idea or
the value of kopeck. He is the sort
of man who will walk eight miles
through a thunderstorm rather than
cough up carfare. Whenever he parts
with a nickel he has to take bromo-
settler to steady his nerves. His rev.
erence for money increases every day,
and it will keep on increasing as long
as he lives.
"Yet you, Mrs, Jamesworthy, in your
feeble-minded matchmaking edthus1-
asm, would use your vote and inf1u-
ence to join these two people in the
holy bonds. Just take the advice Of
your swaybacked husband. and Let
such people work out their owA des-
TIMES, and everybody concerned VIII
be happier"
