STATES NORTH IRELAND WILL

declares Great Britain Must Reach
Own Conclusion With Sim Feln
Leader Regarding Southern
Ireland

London. = The Irish negotiations
have taken an unexpected develop
ment. Sir James Craig, the Ulster
premier, on leaving for Belfast, made
an important statement, which appears
to forbid any hope of assembling
conference such as Premier Lloyd
George proposed between himself, Mr..
I de Valera and the Ulster premier.
Cites Election Defeat.
The Ulster leader maintains that the
Sim Feiners themselves by contesting
the elections for the northern parlia-
ment on platform of mo partition"
In which they were roundly defeated,
have recognized listers claim TO self
determination, and, so far as his
words have been interpreted for the
present, he seems to wash his hands
of any further participation in the
peace negotiations.
Sir James said: Il return home
well satisfied with the efforts being
made towards peace. Mr.. De Valera
has broken his silence and cleared the
ground by his statement to the press
that he proposes to found his claim on
recognition of the right of self-deter-
mnation."
Admitted Ulster Right.
The Ulster premier contended that
the people of northern Ireland In the
recent elections determined" their
own parliament by an overwhelming
majority and that Mr.. De Valera and
his friends admitted the right of such
self-determination on the part of north
ern Ireland by the fact that they them
selves stood as candidates for the
northern parliament and submitted to
their policy of mo partition" This,
In fact. was the only issue placed be-
fore the electorate, said Sir James, and
mo partition" was rejected by the
largest majority ever secured in any
general election.
The Ulster premier now declares
bluntly that the British government
must reach its own agreement with De
Valera and that Ulster is determined
to maintain its present status, thus
the whole Sim Fein argu- |
ment that Ulster is in the minority I
and must bow to the majority in Ire
and.

This was her idea, her plan. If
she told no one she would have
no objections to overcome. so to
all her friends and acquaintance
she had simply said that she was
going away for a time; that she
thought 1t better to rent the house
than have it stand empty in cold
weather.
1t was glorious day in early
october when she stepped from
the train and greeted Mrs. walters,
who met hor. Margaret was to
find an apartment, then send for
Hannah, who until that time
would stay with her daughter.
When Margaret unfolded her
plan to Mrs. Walters, the latter
was wildly enthusiastic.
II am delighted!" she exclaimed

ter. I'll take you to my modiste
and my milliner. You look charm

through with you. Your own

Margaret said nothing, yet she
was almost tempted to give up
her plan of living in New York.

more serious than freckles. You
might try bleaching them with GU

had better consult physician.

Irene Castle, who is perfection
itself when it comes to dress. is
introducing a new sports costume
in her newest picture, 1.-THE Rise
of Roscoe Paine" She calls it a
fishing suit and when one sees the
lovely Irene in it one knows she
will catch something without the
aid of any hook, even If it is not a
fish.
The snug fitting trousers are
reminiscent of the young dandy of
many years ago and the jacket
which accompanies them is much
like the riding habit coat of today
1t is a very smart and dapper cos
tune, but 1t is safe to say that It
takes an Irene Castle with her
grace and youthful piquancy to
wear 1t successfully,
This new picture of Miss Castles
1.-THE Rise of Roscoe Paine" Is
from the story OF Joseph G. Lin
coin. After its completion she is
to make vaudeville tour to re-
vive some of her old dances as a
slap at the modern toddle and jazz
dancing.

DAUGHERTY TOLD
(By The Associated Press.)

Chicago, Dec. 24.-The National
Association of Retail Clothiers,
through Anselm Frankel. presi-
dent, and Charles L. Wry, execu-
tive director, today addressed a
letter to Attorney General Daugh-
erty, denying his recent assertion
that retail dealers profits were
unconscionable and that they have
an understanding which tends to
keep prices high. On behalf of
5000 clothing dealers in their as
ISOLATION, they invited the attor-
ney general to avail himself of al!
information at their disposal and
sharply criticised him for IAN
nouncing the results of your inves-
tigation" before 1t was made.
The letter in part said:
1--WE resent your statement
that retail clothiers' profits are
unconscionable and their prices too
high. This statement is not true
and any one cognizant of the facts
will admit its untruth. The retail
clothing merchants have made
every effort to reduce prices. They
have taken huge inventory losses
and are constantly taking further
losses. In general, clothing today
is being sold at retail at much
smaller percentage Of profit than
ever before.
"It is a serious thing to DESTROY
the public's confidence without
even making an effort to get the
facts. 1t was just such mis-state-
ments, based upon transformation
or, In most cases, upon no infor-
nation, which. brought about
the present serious situation in re-
tail business generally"

MARGARET RESOLVES TO
MOVE.

CHAPTER as.
A letter from Mrs. Walters urg-
ing Margaret to visit her awoke
a thought, that when Joan first
decided to go to New York had
intrigued Margaret, but which she
had put aside Immediately she
knew Joan preferred to room in
the college.
Come and spend several weeks
with me-" Mrs. Walters wrote.
There 10 nothing now to keep you
in that small town.
There isn't" Margaret said
aloud. Not q single thing!"
Still she hesitated. Joan would
not resent her visiting Mrs. Wal
tiers, even if she remained all win
ter; but that she did not wish to
do. A few days in the home of
another was all she cared to spend.
A small thing decided her.
One morning the postman left
her a card from Craig Forester.
1t was postmarked London. He
must be on his way home. He
should not find her sitting quietly
just where she was when he went
away. She blushed at her thought
as she made the decision. 1t i'm
piled an interest in her greater
than he had shown. If he had
cared would he not have written
her instead of sending picture
post cards? But still Margaret
determined that if he returned he
should find her in a different at
mosphere, different surroundings
And although she pretended to
herself that it was to be near Joan,
because she wanted the greater
facilities for enjoyment the me-
tropolis offered; deep down in her
heart she knew that it was be-
cause Of Craig Forester she had
decided to go.
She answered Mrs. Walters in
vitation stating she would visit her
for a few days, but saying nothing
of her plans. She did confide in
old Hannah.
Wen find a nice little apart
ment, Hannah, just few rooms.
and furnish them prettily with
new things. We won't let Miss
Joan know anything about 1t until
I am ready. Perhaps not for a
long time. You see 1 want to have
a good time, Hannah. l want to
feel perfectly free for a while.
Perhaps I shall tire of It," she
added naively, "but l want to
know how it seems to be young,
happy, and-perhaps sought be-
cause of that" she added the last
under her breath. 1T will be n
real lark, Hannah, buying furni-
ture and everything"
"But how are you going to keep
1t from Miss Joan. ma'am? She
writes every week or oftener."
Il have thought OF that Han
nah. Your daughter will remaii
her letters to me, and / will send
her mine to post to Joan. OF course
this would be only for a short time.
Then II Joan wishes she can come
to u.s. But for the present I shall
tell no one but you and Mrs. Wal
tiers my plans. 1t is fortunate
that Ted Is away at college,"
Indeed it Is, ma'am, unless you
, want Miss Joan to know"
Margaret rushed her plans when
she found she could rent her house
simultaneously II she did so at
once. She gave years lease.
with the privilege of buying at the
end of the year at a certain price,
provided the family enjoyed the
place. They rented 1t furnished,
SO all Margaret and Hannah had
to do was to pack their trunks
and go.
Margaret was as excited as n
child about to embark upon some
strange and thrilling adventure.
Never had she taken step before
without considering Joan. Now she
