grind it first if YOU wish. or suit

eggs as YOU want to eat, being care
full not to drop them too brutally.
Put the pot on the stove, leave the
lid open. pour the milk YOU wish to

NOT PROMISING

Nothing to lose and everything to
win is a condition which stiffens the
backbone of some who ordinarily are
supposed to be lacking in spinal
equipment. One will be mindful of
some debtors who have nothing and
for that reason are ready to leer in
the faces Of their creditors. Peoples
appear to be affected in like manner.
Any doubt on that would seem to be
dispelled by the defiant answer the
German chancellor makes to the rep
aration demand. If not, then turn to
Russia and the demand there made
for a moratorium with fresh loans
and the threat that unless these shall
be granted no attempt will be made
to pay Russia's obligations.
AS the time for the Genoa Confer
ence approaches the likelihood of
England finding there a solution for
Lloyd Georges puzzles grows less
Master of political strategy though
he be it is becoming somewhat doubt
full whether he will be able to turn
this Conference to his advantage as
he hoped to do. His accomplishments
of a like nature in the past raise
hopes in the breasts of his friends
that in some adroit fashion he will
be able to turn the tables on his OPP
ponents but the ordeal for him will
undoubtedly be severe. America is
we'll out of it for the moment. but she
may not escape the ultimate results.
A conference which might not make
any Roadway toward settling the Ger
man reparations or aiding in solution
of Russa's troubles would not be
favorable to return to those nor
NAL conditions which America as well
as other countries Is interested in
seeing established.

Youth and I

You have the right to sing, you who
are young.
But no such right as I who had not
sung
In any sort for long,
But now can bring to evensong
A voice that, as it finds once more the
will,
Finds the forgotten strength and skill.
You have the right to laugh, as thus
far free
From tears, but no such right as rests
with me,
Who knew and banished them.
Who grated on life's bitter stem
Buds that drew sweetness from the
sap of pain,
And, when they blossomed, laughed
again.
You have the right to crave peace and
content
But no such power as to circumVent
Unrest and vain desires,
For ere the floods rose and the fires.
l owned land where all L wished
came true,
And so need wish no wish anew.

in a package kept in the house. On
the night Of the tragedy the father
had gone to Little Orleans to make
