SECRETARY WEEKS. PLAN.

The conclusion must not be drawn, tuG becA1Se Secretary Weeks of the war department advocates in his annual re- port to congress the increasing of the number of officers in the regular army 6y 1000. making 13.OoO in all. that he Is committed to a war machine that would cause this country to depart from the much desired policy of peace. He Is as firmly convinced of the importance m peace as anyone, but he makes au important statement when he says: MY eorniustons are, nevertheless, that we should continue to prepare for conflicts Of force. Americans. like other peo- ples, arc subject to the law which pun lshes those nations which fail to pre- pare for defense as well as those wh3 fan to strive for peace"
 What the secretary of war ts en- ueavoring to do is to impress upon the people the fact that they have had a se- were lesson in the matter of prepared ness, and that it should not be forgot ten. No one could have convinced this country two years before the World war that such a struggle would take place, or that we would participate n such conflict Nevertheless it occur red and we were there, even though we were not prepared.
 In the reduction Of the army to 125,. OOO men and 12,o00 officers there was great emphasis placed upon the des,r ability of peace and of showing othe, countries good example in the rrattoI of demobilization. Likewise there va, also need of cutting the heavy expense. of the nation, and the cost of maintain Ing large army was naturally one O. the items to get attention. When tn, army appropriation was cut reduction, had to be made.
 Secretary Weeks is now desirous n overcoming some of the weakness tha was caused by those reductions, and be lieves that the wisdom of increasin, the officers, whose training is the mos important in the maintenance and per lection of organization, IS apparent When 1t comes to the matter of prope protection expense should not be con sidered, but it seems highly probanl that this matter will not be overlooke at the present time.

 T should say I dol" calculated the -ounger daughter Tall and dark and erribly good looking! But" with a uzzled air. where did you see him ast night? I thought you went to a committee meeting at Dorothy's.'
 The older daughter studied her nails fntently. "I did," she answered. we had our meeting in the dining room and after We had finished with business matters we went into the living room Lee was there talking with Dorothy's brother, and just ready to leave. l know it was getting rather fate, so I told Dor othy that I'd have to be going home in stead of staying to hear her new records as 1 had planned.
 Then the other girls said they'd go, too, so Dorothy offered to drive us home. I went down ahead, to wait for her, and climbed into one of the two sedans standing at the curb. In a minute Lee entered the car where was, which happened to be his car instead of Dorothy's. He insisted that stay, so he drove me home. and, with elaborate carleSSness, ne com | ing here tonight
 The father of the family burst into hearty laugh. Pretty good '" ht smilingly bantered. "So it's happened | at last Our model daughter has ac' tually made a mistake, too :"

NEW ERA FOR IRELAND.

The putting into effect of the treaty between Great Britain and the Irish Free State and the appointment of Gov ernor General Healy mark the opening of a new era in the Emerald Isle from which much is expected not only with in Ireland but outside.
 There are those who have endeavoreJ to obstruct all progress to this end and there are those who will continue their efforts even though they cannot fail to recognize that they have been com pletely defeated in their efforts.
 Ireland from now on will be able to show what 1t can do under self govern. ment. The great majority of the Irish people have indicated their approval of the plan by which all but Ulster comes under a dominion form of government They realize that it is the best that can be hoped for at the present time, but they cannot fail to be well impressed by the fact that Timothy M Healy has been named as governor general. This means that an Irishman in whom there is the greatest confidence has been named for this important post. This ,: departure that surprised as well as pleased and must be interpreted as 2 sincere desire on the part of the Britisf to see Ireland satisfied under the new government.
 It is now a case where everything de bends upon the Irish. The possibility of having the responsibility for any de fleets rest upon some titled Englishmal who might have been named governor general is overcome. It is interesting ] to note that Governor General Healy f already planning for the conduct of tn l Irish Free State in such a manner a to convince Ulster that it can an, | should join with 1t.
 Ulster at the same time will be nov 1 ing along under self government, but i
 is bound to be casting glances over tn ! fence to see what its neighrbor to tn i south is doing, and if the Free State
 able to conduct affairs in a way Una | will convince the Ulstermen that al 1 vided Ireland ought not to exist tn
 way is open for unity. If we are t i judge from the past it is not a chang
 that will be brought about over night.

Veterans of the late war who fall in
the category of those entitled to voca-
tional training under the provisions of
the Rehabilitation Act must make
their application to some branch of

from L. C. Jesseph, manager of the
district office of the bureau at Seattle.
Under new ruling made recently

themselves of the opportunity of re-
instating their war risk insurance, Jes-
seph writes Beneficiaries of MANY
thousand ex-service men who carried
the insurance have already collected
from the government on account of
death or total disability.
