order that readers may have both sides Of important issues

THIS MAN HUGHES

One of the curious things in the lights and
shadows playing over the arms parley is the sud
den effacement of President Harding in matters
pertaining to the conference. Doubtless this is
no more than studied effacement; but the fact re-
mains that in so far as the conference is concern
ed, the one great American figure in the sessions
and all that pertains thereunto, domestic alien
is Charles Evans Hughes.
There was no doubt of the identity Of the doni-
mating figure in the first plenary session. The
dignifed secretary Of state swept the conference
off its diplomatic balance and jarrd the thinking
world with mighty jar. In the second plenary
session he kept that commanding position and
maintains it now There soems to be no good
reason why he should not hold it.
Gone is the coldly dgnied, even diffident,
Hughes of the supreme court The even more
diffident, stiff and vaguely troubled Hughes of
the 1916 campaign has vanished. That uncom-
promising stiff, black, spade beard of the old days
has gone, and back of the softer and whitening
beard of new era there seems to be new Charles
Evans Hughes better, bigger, broader, kindlier
and yet a more commanding Hughes. A states
man rather than jurist.
This is also happier Hughes, secretary of
state reasonably exultant over the way the world
is going and optimistic about the better future
Of the world. Somewhere and somehow, along the
way since 1916, this man Hughes has been grow

RETURNING

i When the year closes, Russia will have imported
in 1921 more than twice as many pounds of food
and materials as in 1920. The biggest gains have
been in metals, metal goods, spinning materials
and foods.
& England is furnishing 81 per cent Of Russia's
imports, Germany 10 per cent, America 16 per
cent.
Russia, like everything else in the world, is
slowly coming back. 1t is importing 400,0O000O
pounds of supplies year, which proves that its
economic machinery is beginning to function as

London, Dec: 12-"I'd like to know
just what kind Of a girl she is!'
Millions Of men and women have
expressed that longing since the en-
gagement of Princess Mary, only
daughter of the king and queen of
'England, was announced And their
curiosity has been quickened by the
report that her fiance, Lord Lascelles,
may become governor general of Ire
land.
Il want to beFa woman-not a prin-
cess" .&.
Mary was just little girl when
she said this-but she has lived up to
it ever since. she was with her queen
mother at a children's bazaar. She
overheard a youngster~, say, MAN
ma, thought princesses; wore crowns ,
when do get a CROWN" Mary
asked the Queen.

mother replied.
"Then I'll never have crown"
said Mary; adding, 81 want to be a
woman-not5a princess
Mary and her eldest brother, the
Prince tof Wales, have always bs,en
close palss as j
When the prince entered Dart
mouth, hesswas immensely proud Of
his naval cadets uniform
One morning he found on his plate
"a package which had come by mail
Opening it he, discovered doll
dressed like himself and labeled in
his sisters handwriting:
isn't he pretty?!!!"
Mary when little went shoppns
with a governessl. She wanted q
broom. 1t must be little and stiff. The
salespeople, and the governess tried
to persuade her to- buy something else,
but she replied:
"No, want broom! Henry (he7
brother) is lazy. want him to learn
to sweep the paths in the garden
One of the first things the queen
taught Mary was to mend and sew.
She used to mend the socks of her
brothers.
During the war she knitted with all
the other girls.
One day something went wrong
with, a sewing machine at Balmoral
Castle. The princess met the girl
mechanic sent to repair it and eX-
ella imed: ....
oh, let me try! ] am rather good
with machinery. and it's great fun fix
ing things"
She took the machine to pieces, put
it together again and it ran perfectly!
Another thing the queen taught her
was the art of cookery.
Asked what kind of cooking she
liked best, Mary replied with candor:
81 like to make something that |
myself can eat afterward.'
One of the things she likes to cook
is cake.
Mary is the linguist of the royal
family. She knows something OF all
the Scandinavian languages, speaks
Spanish and Italian fairly we'll, Ger
man very well and French eXcellently.
She also hammers out letters on the
typewriter and has written some OF

SOLDIERS MEMORIES

What really happened to our doughboys who
saw action in France will in large part forever
remain secret
More than three years have passed since the
Armistice, and most Of the returned soldiers still
are as silent as clans.
q When they began coming home from Europe,
one Of the first things that struck the stay-at-
home public was that none OF them wanted to talk
about his experiences
The big idea seems to be to bury the past and
try to forget. Poor Whittlesey, leader of the
famous Lost Battalion, couldn't forget. He is be-
lieved to have jumped overheard from an ocean
liner, to escape his memories.
How many war veterans could stand the strain
of living all over again, every night their terrible
experiences in the war? $ %4@ "
Allan Pollock was a star light comedian. May
be you saw his fine work in "Seven Days" or
Hawthorne of the u S. A.
He served in the trenches and was severely
wounded. For IL months he never regained con-
seriousness. His jaw was torn away, his body
wrecked by "a wounds, his life apparently
finished.
8. Now Pollock is a theatrical sensation, acting
the part Of Hilary Fairfield, in "A Bill of Divorce
ment." In this part he interprets the role of a
shell-shocked war hero, pronounced incurably in
sane after years in sanitarium
That is realism for you. A psychiatrst would
explain it by pointing out that farce comedy has
an almost tragic attack, that light comedy has a
basis Of tragedy
1t probably is superhuous to state that Allan
Pollock begs to be excused from discussing his
war record. He says that the greatest courage Of
his life was called to the front the evening he had
to face his first-night audience-his comeback.
The case of Allan Poack is an exceptional illus
tration of the absolute control of the intellect by
will power.
Allan Pollock should be an inspiration to every
war veteran who is haunted by his memories who
has been unable to draw curtain of oblivion
over terrible experiences.
We all know that memory can be cultivated.
We all should know that forgettory-the op-
posite of memory-also can be developed
The exertion of will power, coupled with de-
termination to seek genial companonship and the
brighter side of life, will enable any one grad
ually to develop the power to forget - to thrust
completely out Of the mind all things that the will
power DEGREES shall be forgotten

HOMIC1DESi

United States during 1920, according to a hom-
eide checking up just completed by the Pruden-
tial Life Insurance Co.
That was 500 fewer murders than in 1919.
The murder record in 1921 probably will set a
new high mark ..,.
Based on the 1920 figures, one out of every 12,-
900 Americans is murdered yearly. If you want
to bet on whether you will meet violent death
at the hands of an assassin; the odds are 1899
against, one for.
The situation is equivalent to one murder year
in town of $4,000 inhabitants. Like all of the
major crimes, murder is the rare exception.
That's why killing stands out. Keep in mind

A Ford Policy


1t has been for years strict
policy of the Ford Motor Co. to
know at least 30 DAYS in advance
the number and types of cars
the factory would be required to
produce in order to supply the
dealers. This is very necessary
information as the factory must
make preparation to turn out the
required cars needed. The
material must be bought and
men employed in advance so
there will be steady production
which is very essential to pro-
duce any product at a minimum
cost.
The dealer isrequired to advise
the factory not later than the
18th of each month the number
of cars, by types, trucks and
tractors he Will need for delivery
the following month. Unless
this policy is strictly observed
the dealer cannot hope to get a
supp to meet the demand.
Business in almost every line,
except coal and iron, Is improv-
ing rapidly. The demand for
cars is growing daily, and the
best business authority claim
there will be marked shortage
before midsummer.
The farmers realize they will
have to grow larger crops at a
less cost this year, and to do
this they are buying improved
farm machinery. The Fordson
Tractor plant is running full
time and already some dealers in
the farming sections are short of
tractors, however, Mr.. Ford has
assured the dealers they NAV
have all the trucks and tractor
they are able to sell.
So if there is a shortage of
any consequence it will be in
passenger ears
Parties vantlp4sars, trucks
or tractors sAou%Raace their
orders early or if might be
necessary to put them on the
waiting list. T.
