stroyers in the Hudson river.
His name is Buck.
Buck thought Cordelia May would
like 1t If he invited Grampa TO come
along with her to visit the Dyer. Cor
della May didn't like It at all, as a
matter of fact. but Grampa accepted
with alacrity.

Cordelia Mays mother. when Grampa

Il did not" said Grampa.
"What did Cordelia May do?" Ma

to hang the guilt. But she was wrong.
"She didn't do nothin' except gawk

There is an OIL man out west-and

The theory on which he worked
might be stated differently. The con-

to success in life, and sometimes 1t
seems advisable TO bluff in order to
get it. 1t never pays to lop the I'M

lhe Red Deer river at Drumheller, AL
Midland mine. Five men in all were
required to get it to dry land, gradu-

London-That there existed some
misconception of President Harding's
invitation for conference for the dis
cussion of armament limitation and
Pacific questions is indicated by sum-
mary Of the proceedings Of the I'm
perial conference, issued at the con-
clusion of the last session Of that body.
In accordance with the suggestion
which was believed to have been
made by the American government
should be preceded by friendly CONVEX
sations or consultations between the
powers principally concerned in the
future Of the Far East and the Pacific
says the summary, the imperial con-
ference, anxious that for the Anglo
Japanese agreement there should be
substituted some larger arrangement
between the three great powers con-
cerned, namely, the United States,
japan and Great Britain, and holding
the firm conviction that the later dis
cussions on disarmament, to which
they attached transcendant impor-
lance, could best be made effective by
previous mutual understanding on
Pacific questions between those
powers, discussed these preliminary
conversations or consultations, which
the American government had, in prin-
ciple, agreed should be laid in Lon
don.
Agrees to U. s. Meeting.
When it transpired, continues the
summary, that there was some mis-
understanding as to the nature Of the
suggested preliminary conversations;
the British government, in desire to
remove any possible misconceptions
and to meet what it believed to be the
American view, volunteered to attend
a meeting on the other side Of the At:
lantic, at which the agenda of the
Washington conference could be dis.
cussed.
Premier Lloyd George, Marquis Cur.
zon and the Dominion premiers were
prepared to attend such a meeting ii
invited by the American government
Japan also had signified her willing.
ness to attend. The American govern.
ment, however, did not favor the idea,
!! which accordingly was dropped.
AT no stage was it stated that the
result of such consultation should
either anticipate the work or tie the
hands of the Washington conference
On the other hand, the Imperial con
ference made the proposal because il
was anxious to remove every possible
obstacle from the path Of the Wash
ington meeting, which it desired to see
attended by full success.
The summary declares that the
greater part Of the proceedings Of the
Imperial conference relating to foreign
affairs and defense was Of confiden
tial character, but that the discus
sions revealed a unanimous opinion al
to the main lines to be followed b,
the British policy and deep convic
ton that the whole weight of the EN-
I,pire should be concentrated behind {
united understanding and common &C
ton in foreign affairs.
