WASHINGTON, Dec. 3O.-In the
face of the repeated Japanese as
sertion that the Shantung question
was not upon the agenda OF the
Washington conference and did not
come within the scope of the mean
ing Of Pres't Harding's formal invi-
tauon 10 Participate In the confer
ence, Chinese spokesman declared
Friday night that this question
would be injected into the confer
ence by TIE Chinese delegation TO
break the deadlock in the converse
tons between the Japanese and
Chinese delegations on the subject
unless some other means to a solu-
ton was found before the next meet
ing Of the far eastern committee.
China cannot make any more
concessions; IN fact, she has made
too many already" a Chinese dele
gate said Friday nigk. IF the
question Is not settled satisfactorily
through mediation or otherwise the
only thing for the Chinese delega-
ton TO do is to bring II before the
conference and let the conference
settle il"
The Chinese position was set forth
at about the time that Vice Admiral
Hanihara of Japan said at a meet
ing with newspaper correspondents
that if China did not reconsider her
position on the Shantung problem,
its solution would be very difficult
Sec'y Hughes and Mr.. Balfour might
possibly tender their good Offices
with the aim OF settling the question,
he added. but he preferred a direct
settlement between the representa-
lives of Japan and China.
Japs Still Hopeful.

rect settlement" he added. we
have already made more concessions
in this matter than was proper. In
fact, we exceeded the instructions OF

seemed difficult longer to continue

whole matter to Toxic. Our gov

prove our program as far as we had

Grandma disdained the first aids to

She acknowledged before the world
that she had ears. She exposed them

She attended church regularly. She

She danced the minuet with men
she knew. She would have been horri-
fed with the primrose dance, the hula
and the shimmie.
She wore high necks and long

would have considered the sash and

Her skirt was very long and her toes
peeped in and out like tiny mice, we
are told She would have been scan

He gazed long and longingly at the

He entered the lobby.
He came out again.
He was met by an equally sedate
middle-aged woman.
"What are you doing in theref she
demanded.
"Why, my dear, thought 1t was the
entrance to the bird store, but hurried
out as soon as l discovered my mis-
take" was his rather hating reply.

something from his pocket and

walk.
