SOMEBODY'S DOOM

Ye drunkards and gamblers,
Hark unto me,
I'm now going to tell
What your doom is TO be;
II you think to reach heaven
All tainted with sin,
When you get TO the gate
You shall not enter in.
Some now seem TO think
It's no trouble Z get in,
But let me remind you
Wrong doing's all sin.
SO before you set out,
Get this in your mind
Just leave your mole-hills
OF sin all behind.
Now, sinners, just listen,
Your life it must end,
And all your vile doings
On earth amongst men.
Your day II will come,
And TO Judgment you'll go,
Your verdict'll be rendered,
The sentence be Woe.
For perdition is yours,
And it's coming ere long.
You'll suffer in torment
For all you've done wrong.
Begging for mercy,
You'll then be too late,
For needing His pleading
Too long did you wait.
BY those who should know.
It's always been said,
With demons and devils
You'll then make your bed.
And eternity you'll spend,
Where the worm never dies:
The children you've wronged
Can listen to your cries.
You'll call then for water
To cool your parched tongue,
But there will be nothing
But cards, whisky and rum.
To stop your vile craving,
Your cry will be first,
One drop Of cold water
For quenching your thirst.
Then the Master will look
With compassion and say,
an yonder world, son,
You had your good day.
Now this is a place
For all Of the blessed,
Where no drunkards disturb
The weary at rest"
Then further he'll say,
With a kind voice still to you:
I'VE must now close the gate
That no sinners come thru"
St. Peter will then
Proclaim with a shout.
THE gate is now closed
All sinners locked out"

That robbery was the motive was
further indicated by the fact that

This Life, and Beyond.

For what is life that we should
make such ado about it, and hug it
so closely and look to- it to fill our
hearts? What is~aIt earthly life, with
al its bad and good luck, its riches
and its poverty, but vapor that
passes away-noise and smoke over
cloudng the enduring light of heaven?
A man may be very. happy and blest
in this life, yet he may feel that, how
eTer pleasant it is, at root it is no
renlity, but only shadow of realities
Which are eternal and infinite in the
bosom of Coda piecemeal pattern Of
the light Kingdom. the city not made
with hands. eternal in the heavens.-

DENIES HE REPUDIATED
ADMIRAL KATO'S RATIO
TokugarDa Issues Statement
on Naval Issue.

WASHINGTON. Dec. (Associated
Press) Denial was made tonight by
Prince Tokugawa. one Of Japan's arms
conference delegates. that he repudiated
or dlsapproved the recent assertion of
vice-AdmiraI Kanji Kato. chief naval
adviser TO the Japenese delegation. to
the effect that Japan regarded a 20 per
cent ratio In capital shirs tonnage
necessary to safeguard that nations in
tcrests.
Vice. Admiral Kato declared Japan
must have a ratio OF 70 per cent. In
stead of the so per ccDt. ratio provided
In the American armament limitation
proposals.
Prince TolSugawa a day or 80 after
this declaration was made, was quoted
as saying the Vice-Admirars assertion
was an expression of personal opln-
ion."
Tonight Prince Tokugawa made the
following statement:
what ! meant to convey the other
evening in answering questions OF news
paper correspondents concerning the in
tcrview given by vice-Admiral Kanji
Kato on the naval ratio question was
that Il was the opinion OF the Japanese
naval experts. / did not mean TO con-
trndict the views OF Vice-Admiral Knto.
Some people seemed 90 have Interpreted
what ] said as being a reputation or
dsapproval OF the vicc-admirars opin-
ions. but did not convey any such
idea"
The New York herald., 1921-12-02

Of the frank and dauntless statesmanship
which Secretary Hughes exhibited at
the inauguration OF the sessions.
The Chinese people believe that their
delegation has blundered In accepting
the offer of good Offices by Secretary
Hughe~ md Lord Balfour. However. 1t
Is no irreparable blunder. They
predict y failure In the conversations,
but they believe their delegates would
make their stand sufficiently firm In the
conversations that China reserves every
right In having this paramount issue
brought before the conference later.
There Is not a shadow of doubt in the
minds of the Chinese that this question
should be brought before the white spot
light of the conference table so that all
China's grievances may be aired. 1t Is
more desirable that it should be brought
cut OF q public session. The stage Is
set for such a move.
China pinned her faith to the present
conference. because she was confident
that the United States was going to
abandon all measures of "back door
diplomacy" which we thought Secretary
Hughes had fttingly inferred in the
presence of Europe's leading diplomats
the chief mourners, at the opening meet
ing OF the conference. AS much as we
admire Secretary Hughes's spirit OF
achievement. we cannot indorse the
suggestion ne made at the conference
yesterday on the Shantung issue.
China's ten points enumerated by her
spolSesmen have been accepted in prin-
ciple by the conference. which in turn
had adopted Mr.. Roots four resolutions.
Under these China Is justified in bring
ing up the Shantung controversy before
the conference itself. Why should Sec
retary Hughes and Lord Balfour sug-
gest such a Conversation? Doesn't
their action amount to a reconsideration
of their acceptance in principle of
China's ten points? Doesn't their action
suggest reputation of the four reso-
lutions they themselves passed?
At least thinking Chinese believe 1t
does.

Washington, ID. c., Dec. I.
To sum up the long waited for diff
ferences between China and Japan on
the question of Japanese military occu-
patton In China II may be said that
obviously China is right in principle
in her demand that all parts of her ter
ritory be evacuated by Japanese troops,
but Japan is. beyond doubt. right when
she claims that her troops must stay
In China as long as anarchy prevails in
that country.
Still more difficult to solve Is the prob
lem OF Shantung, now before the con-
ference China contends the province
should have been returned to her as
soon as she entered war ON the side of
the Allies. her action having automati-
cally abrogated all previous treaties
with Germany. Japan contends that the
Versailles Treaty. which was never rati-
fed by China, gave her the control OF
the disputed province. The suggestion
that Japan and China try to find a direct
settlement between themselves under
the auspices and good advices of two
authoritative represe natives Of the Brit
