De Valera and Sir James Craig to come
to London to discuss an Irish settlement
with the British government
Virtually all of the newspapers approve
Of the premier's course.
The opposition newspaper, Daily News,
which has been an outspoken critic of
the governments Irish policy, declares
the country is confronted with the ap-
palling prospect OF intensified warfare in
Ireland If the conference fails.
1t has been proposed that England ad-
minister Ireland as crown colony, be
ginning July Il, unless the Southern Ire
land parliament (created under the new
home rule bib meets and swears allegi-
ance TO England and King George.
DECLARES PLANS READY
FOR GREAT CAMPAIGN.
The view held in Ireland" said the
Daily News ais that this action would
be tantamount to actual declaration Of
war" This newspaper pointed out that
both general STATS English and, Sim
Fein) have plans completed for a great
campaign. The Irish Republican army

scription in additional districts

queries the Daily News in commenting
upon the latest peace move.
The Daily Telegraph referred TO the

part Of the Irish is necessary" said the
Irish Independent, adding: If the
elected representatives decide to accept
they may be trusted to do everything
possible TO secure terms satisfactory to
the Irish people"
We must take exception to the at
tempt Of the premier to drag Ulster into
conference with the Sim Fem" said a
dispatch from Belfast quoting the
Northern Wing. This newspaper con-
timed:
What have we to do with De Valera $

premier is not treating Sir James Craig
fairly in asking him to meet De Valera.

Many Telephones
Out in City Due to
Thunder Storms

There were possibly one thousand
telephones out of service this morn
ing as the result of the electrical
storms OF last week, in this city. ac-
cording to Frank Wampler, vice presi-
dent and general manager of the In
diana Bell Telephone Company. He
. said each storm seemed worse than
the preceding one.
The trouble was caused, he ex-
planned, by electricity getting into
cables, burning a hole in them and
allowing water from the storms to
enter This, he said, necessitated
locating the trouble, opening the cable
where the trouble had occurred AND
then drying it OUT This is being
done as rapidly as possible. He said
the storm Saturday night alone had
put about thousand telephones out
of service.

FAvORS AT DINNER PARTIES.

Within recent years the custom OF
having favors or some sort at all our
holiday meals has grown enormously.
Even at the boards OF families in very
modest circumstances little papier mache
favors Of some sort are usually seen.
There are tiny Santa Clauses and REIN
deers for Christmas, and wee. fluffy, cot
ton chicks for Easter. hats and hatchets
for washinSton's Birthday and papier
mache turkeys filed with candies usually
grace the Thanksgiving board.
A scheme that provokes good deal
OF merriment and provides merriment at
little expense and without any waste Is
this: A few days before the Christmas
dinner place the names OF those whom
you expect TO gather around your board
In box, and then In the name Of each
guest draw a slip. casting the slip back
whenever you draw the name Of the
one for whom you are drawing. Now
with this list inform each person OF the
name of the person whose name he has
drawn By proxy. but do not let any one
know who has drawn his name. Each
one Is then requested TO make n pur-
chase not to exceed twenty-five cents
os some really useful article for the per-
son whose name he holds. Every one
Is also requested to keep his purchases
cocret TIL tho day and then to place
them, we'll wrapped, at the place ~ the
one for whom they are purchased. In
this way 6-year-old Billy gets grand
mother cake Of her favorite soap, and
grandmother gives Uncle Tom a pair Of
wristlets that she has made from a little
left over wool that she Is sure WASH.
worth ten cents. and Tom gets the little
daughter In school 4 set OF pencils and
every one has a surprise and a present
that Is really useful.
