Here Is what the present T. r. wrote

The Assistant Secretary Of the Navy.
Washington.
July 20. 1921.
NY Dear Mr.. Brown:
have read with great interest Mr..
Curwood's book. THE Flaming For
est" 1t Ii excellent. 1t is good clean
adventure in the "open spaces" / am
thoroughly sick of the soul-searching
obscenities Of many of the modern
novels. 1t is fashionable now to pile
complex or reflex ad lib until the
reader becomes hopelessly lost in a
maze of interpretive speculation. Per-
sonally, I believe that action as a rule
springs from simple motives.
Mr.. Curwood's book is q story of ad.
venture, well told and robust. Be
iieve me, Very truly yours.

Who Will Be Who
At Disarmament Conference.

The disarmament conference con.
tinues to be an absorbing topic of con-
versation. Everybody in Washington
seems to be interested In 1t from some
angle. To the business man the pros.
pect OF so many visitors spells pros
perity. The social butterfly dreams OF
balls and receptions and the thrill OF
rubbing elbows with visiting lions.
And the manor woman-who knows
something OF world politics and is
Interested In the fate of nations and
OF humanity sees visions of a finer
and clearer understanding and hap
pier relations among the people of the
earth to come out Of new round table
discussions.
And, Of course. everybody is inter.
ested In knowing how many delegates
are coming from each country invited
TO participate, who they are to be and
II they are going to bring the ladies
Of their families along with them. IL
Mr.. Lloyd George comes over at the
head Of the British delegation-and he
has issued a formal and official denial
OF the published statement that he
would not come-presumably Mrs.
Lloyd George will accompany him, for
tho British Premier seldom stirs with
out his wife.
Mrs. Lloyd George, from all &C.
COUNTS, Is one OF thOse quiet, retiring
women about whom little is known to
the general public, but she is, never
theless, potent force in English
polotics. IL Mrs. Lloyd George comes
over, her daughter, Miss Megan Lloyd
George, Is likely to come. too. And
she's another person In whose per-
sonslity Washington would be keenly
interested, for she is her fathers pet
and constant companion. She is re-
ported to be engaged to the Prime
Minister'S secretary, Sir Philip Sas-
soon.
There are indications that Field
Marshall Lord Haig and Admiral
