 The tax sheet Is a very effectual propaganda and one must not be sur prfsed that Presid ent Harding was shOWered with protests from all sides against the huge proportions Of milf tary armaments. In this agitation Americas women's organizations took a prominent part. The war party in the United States, reinforced by the
 powerful phalanN of the armament Industry gives as q reason for the
 necessity of maintaining the army and navy the possibility of a conflict
 with Japan which. as long as the Anglo-Japanese alliance Is In force,
 might help Great Britain. Hence
 Americas sensitiveness with regard to the question of renewal of this all
 lance, and the necessity of coming
 to an agreement with Japan concern ing the Far Eastern problem and the
 policy in the Pacific Ocean, It goes
 without saying that clarity must be
 created before America can afford to
 even think of disarmament
 In England, too, the iessening of
 war burdens Is vigorously demanded by public opinion. But England is in a dilemma with regard to the alliance with Japan which expired on July 1 8 i last and which will be definitely at m end next July unless 1t Is renewed in them antinle.

Issues Spirited Message To American People Before
 Leaving.

New York, Dec. 14-Marshal Foch, before sailing for France today on dne liner Paris. transmitted through the American Legion Weekly, official organ of the ex-service mems organ ization, a farewell to the people of America The translation follows: a With deep regret I bid you good bye. For almost seven weeks the Legion has entertained me marvel ously in your splendid country. My experience here leads to two thoughts.
 When first I met you and came to admire you as fighters, cheerful, sub ject to discipline under your splendid leader, General Pershing. the days were dark indeed. Yet you smiled then as you fought, and your cheer fuiness and bravery helped much to bring us victory and peace.
 When next I met you it was in your country. The alarms of war were over You were engaged ac- 1lxely In those pursuits of peace which are so essential to happiness and prosperity-hard work I have come tc love all Americans for their spirit of diligence, for their generous Eheahtedness: France and the United they always have been.
 These two thoughts of the American abroad at war, of the American at home and at peace-lead 10 only one conclusion, that the Americans are young, sturdy, honor able, God-fearing. full of faith and hope; that they are to be admired respected and trusted by all peoples everywhere.
 And of what type is the represen- tative American of today? The type you find in the American Legion He is the man who sacrificed all to fight for his flag and world freedom. He IS the man who now will see to ft that we have peace on earth good will toward men,
 
 to keep ourselves worthy of the vie tory we have won. We know you are doing yours. Long live the American people! Long live the American Le- gionr'

HERE IS WAY TO AVERT
SOGGINESS IN PASTRY

WASHINGTON, Aug. 20.-G. y. 81
Cheer up, YOU housewives, who have
had unexpected difficulties with juicy
pies owing to their insistence to he
come soggy. Specialists in the ex-
perimentaI kitchens of the federal de-
partmenls of agriculture have found
in the course of pastry baking expert
ments, that if the undercrust is pre-
baked until slightly brown the pies
will be much better.
Another point brought out in con-
nection with pastry baking, especial
" in warm weather, is that speed in
handling is an important factor if
the housewife does not wish her dough
to become soft and consequently diff
ficult to roll and lift.

When at last Grandma leaves us the

When with joys for the gentle and

Or is taking what may be a young

She will say with the loveliest smile

times during the run. Foresman and
Seagrove alternated in the lead. In

LOVE.

, ct me but love my love without dis
guise,
Nor wear a mask OF fashion old or
new,
or wait to speak till can hear a
clue,
or play a part to shine in others
eyes,
or bow my knees to what my heart
denies;
But what I am to that let me be
true.
And let me worship where my love
is due.
nd SO through love and worship let
me rise.
. or love is but the hearts immortal
thirst,
To be completely known and all for
given,
Even as sinful soul that enters
Heaven;
I take me, dear, and understand my
worst,
nd freely pardon it, because con-
fessed,
nd let me find in loving thee my best.
