SHRINERS' BALL IS A PRONOUNCED
 SOCIAL SUCCESS
Gay Throng of Shrinedon Ushers in New Year at
 A Brilliant Gathering.

The New Years Eve ball given by the Shriners will go down in the history of Juneau as one of the most successful and prettiest social events oi 1920 Many old timers who sat out" in the gallery, watching the gay crowd on the floor beneath, claim that they have never seen such a brilliant assemblage in Juneau as that of last night. The ladies ap- peared in gowns of the latest crea- tions. The men, the large majority in evening dress, and wearing the red fezes, furnished a most suitable background for the elaborately gown cd ladies. Many of the latter pres ent, wore the white fez.
 The hall itself was gaily decorated in the colors of the Shriners, in green and gold and red with the aid of yellow cedar and lively Shrine em- tlems and pennants were tastily ar ranged about the sides of the hall and the west end was decorated witk special care. This particular part of the hall was given over to the scimiter, set off in electric lights of the required color. In large semi-circle, the words Happy New Year" appeared in evergreens. The entire decoration was sunburst of gorgeous coloring.
 It is estimated that during the evening there were present at least two hundred couples. The dancers started gathering shortly after nine o'clock and until after one this morn ing the floor was filled with the gay throng.
 Gov. Thomas Riggs, Mrs. Riggs. and Mrs. Elmore, sister of the Gov ernor, arrived at the hall shortly after 10 o'clock and occupied the Governors box, which was especially decorated with Shrine emblems, form ing a canopy.
 During the evening punch was served in a special booth near the orchestra gallery.
 At midnight when little year 1921 tripped across the historical horizon, the lights in the hall were dimmeI, the twelve strokes of the hour were heard, then the lights went up and Shrinedom in Juneau welcomed the little stranger in a true fraternal spirit
 The music of the evening was also one of the features of the evening. Prof Larson and his artists gave many new selections which were most thoroughly enjoyed.
 The Shriner's ball was in charge of the newly appointed Executive Committee consisting of Vic ClausOn, Harry I. Lucas, Homer c. Nordling, Herbert Morris. Oak Olson, Frank LeNoir and William Fry. The mem bers of the old Executive Committee assisted whenever required and they were aided on every hand by theI Eobles of the Order.
 The ball was pronounced by every one present to be the best and one of the most enjoyable dances ever staged in the city. Beautiful, grand" "did you ever see so many beautiful women, so beautifully gowned. at Juneau dance?" Isn't the hall lovely beyond description?" were some of the many compliment ary expressions heard from the as semblage.

CHAPTER Xxx.
The Conflict of Interest,

These men, whose unanimity was
demanded by circumstances, represent
ed nations separated BY centuries of
history. Great Britain and France. to
mention but these. had been Mt war be
tween 1858 and 1915 for 81 years out
Of l2T. All the others had each in its
own country and in its own interest
lived different lives which had given
birth TO conflicting interests. Immedi-
ate conflicts reduced to figures in eco
noaie and financial problems where one
could not have more unless the other
bad less. Other conflicts. less iinmedi-
ate but far deeper, in public morals
where the diversity of traditions had
given birth to widely divergent concep-
tions and to irreconcilable contradic-
tons of feeling and of thought. 1t was
the dead of ages speaking and they
did not all speak the same language
NJ. Ciemenceau and those who helped
him direct the negotiations for France
had personal experience of this dam
gerOus divergence of national tempera-
ments. He characterized it in these
words, which | reproduce:
The state of mind of our allies is
not necessarily the same as our own
and when we are not in agreement with
them, it is unjust to blame those who
do not succeed in convincing them or to
blame them for evil intentions which
are not III their hearts.
