professor would have changed his voice and
enumerated clearly and succinctly the names
of the battleships and so on. In that way Mr..
Hughes could have got an effect, instead of
just delivering speech that almost anybody
could have thought of if they had had time
to look up the facts and figures. But it is too
late now, and there is no use in crying over
split milk, because what is done is done Mr.
Hughes made his mistake in not realizing
when he was his feet and had their atten-
tion--that such an opportunity does not come
every day, and pitched in and made the most
of it. But that is one of the sad things about

at the time, and it may be that way with you

alternated with the AK for the favor of the
executloners-such a sword as this one offered
IN the auction. Its point is blunt, but its edges
are keen. The story is told of headsman
scheduled to behead young noble with the
former implement. The condemned refused to
kncel and urged the executioner to have at
him standing. The headsman swung. keeping
his eyes on the head. 1t was fine, clean
stroke IN the opinion of many, but some
insisted that the headsman sliced.

period in the swords evolution when mere

like that delivered the famous coup de Jarnac.

when he entered the lists against Chastaiene

Inc sale OF raplers recalls a prime age of
the sword, an age when the swordsmans de-
tense was his skill, not armor. Perhaps two

Hughes do this? He did not As far as tears
went, the delegates might just as we'll have

American eagle AS far as you could tell
from his address we might not have had any
thing but English sparrows and an unin-
formed man might have thought that the eagle
was an extinct species. 1t would have been
far more impressive if, as the professor would
have done, he had painted word picture of
the great eagle, soaring aloft in the empyrean,
looking down from his invisible perch among
the blue-dipped clouds, with kindness and
benediction for his brothers throughout the
world, yet perfectly willing to drop the light
ming from his talons, once and for all, if his
confreres would.do the same. Then, throwing

Friends of D'Aguerre took advantage of the
counter attraction. Although advice from
the ringside was strictly forbidden, in the con-
fusion they whispered loudly to D'Aguerre:
"S-s-s-s-t! Throw some sand in his eyes!"
The upper knight had just enough strength
left to follow this advice. He grabbed up
double handful from the lists and buried the
visage of his adversary, who, after consuming
much sand, also ate his words.
But back to the auction. On view is now
mighty two-handed sword, with blade
nearly six feet long. Such weapons were used
by special troops whose mission it was to per-
suade enemy pikenen that q close formation
could not be maintained. Cavalry charged
into the resulting gap and clinched the areu-
ment. 1t required giant of man to swing
the two-handed sword, welding it in mighty
swathes. Perhaps such swords as this was

the famed Excalibur which King Arthur had
from the Lady Of the Lake. But picture
tableau of that event to-day! The white
clothed arm would rise from the water, proffer-
ing the sword. AS King Arthur reached to
take it, Secretary Hughes, whose ideas on
the reduction of naval armament have gained
some publicity recently, would step forward
majestcally and forbid: "Don't you do It'll"
Hutton tells the story of Signore Rocco

TO ply his trade. To the mind Of one Austen
Bagger this was bringing Goals to Newcastle.

When he got to the climax they wouldn't
nave been able to make any pretense of hiding
their feelings, but just let the tears drip down
their furrowed cheeks. And when he would
have finished there would have been rush to
shake hands with him and the attendance at
church would have doubled for several Sun
days. But did any more people go to church
next Sunday after Mr.. Hughes made his
speech? if you will be honest and look facts in
the face, as we ought to do in critical period
like this, you will have to admit that they did
not. AS far as anybody could tell by looking
over the attendance at the various churches, a
big speech had not been made Just between

in this, because a loyal American and
would not want it to get back to ears that
would be better off not to hear it, it seems to

New-York tribune., 1921-12-04
Mr.. David Lloyd George,
10 Downing Street.
London, Eng.

Ny dear Mr.. George: Some time ago /
wrote you (if you finally decide to come to
tho conference) to spend the time with the
missus and me Ia our little suburban, home.
and have not heard anything from you in
the way OF reply, or even so much as a
postal, and will be frank with you and tell
you that am not accustomed to having my
I'D invitations ignored. Nobody can do
that to me many times in succession and cx-
pect me to feel tho same toward them But,
on the other hand, II you are hostating about
accepting because Of what said about slop-
ping up the bathroom, then IL you will say SO
frankly Will understand and not hold it
against you, because am only human my
self, as you will find later on when you get
TO know me better. Or II it is because you
nave formed the habit of sitting on the edge
OF the bed springs and can't think of It when
you have your mind on weighty subjects,
then will understand and try to explain the
same to the wife, and think she will make
an allowance, as she is reasonable person
and has forgiven worse things In me, al
though Of course you understand the springs
will never be the same again.
I suppose you were naturally surprised at
what we Americans sprang on you at the
opening Of the conference and would like
to discuss it with you, although / had ex-
pected something Of the kind Our Mr..
Hughes expressed our feelings pretty we'll.
] think, although it seems to me he could
have used q little more oratory, because if
you will turn back history's pages you will
find that oratory is always used on such
occasions. For instance, turn to Webster's
reply to Hayne and what do you see? Real
oratory. 1t is said that when Mr.. Webster xot
through his harangue there was not drv
eye in the audience. OF course, he was not
handicapped by speaking to lot of people
from other countries who were not accus-
toned to listening to high class language.
But, appreciating that, do you not think it
would have been more impressive if Mr..
hughes had used few more big words that
am sure he is familiar with? When we are
alone chatting together / would like to hear
your honest opinion on the subject and will
do the same for you freely and without
stint, SO you see we will be of mutual helm
20 each other in more ways than one.
1t IS said that on this occasion MIR.
Hughes raised his voice only twice
that is, on two different words-and 7 do
not think that is enough for so important a
speech We were not taught that way when
went to school away out in Missouri.
which is my native haunt Our professor
OF eiocution at the seminary would never
