Belgium, Entitled to First Money, Pro
poses Acceptance Of Promissory
Notes-France and England
Are Satisfied.

Paris.-Tke reparations crisis was
Bmoothed over by a decision OF the
reparations commission refusing Ger
many's demand for moratorium, but
at the same time absolving the Berlin
government from further cash pay
ments this year. In the meantime the
decision Is that Belgium, to whom
would have gone, owing to her priority
right, whatever money would have
been received from the Reich up to
Dec. 81 next, gets German promissory
notes instead of gold. The Brussels
government is satisfied with this ar
rangement, which indeed is supposed
to have been suggested by its dele
gates on the commission, and France
also is presumed to acquiesce, since
Louis Dubois, French spokesman and
the commissions chairman, voted

Thus, for the present a rupture
among the allies is averted and the
French army's advance into the Ruhr
has been called off.
There is general expectation that
the result Of the commissions delib-
erations will have a beneficial effect
upon both the franc and the mark,
although basically the financial situa-
tion in France and Germany is unaf-
fected.
The first step in today's proceed
ings was a .lat rejection by majority
vote of the French and Belgian dele
gates against the British, with the
italian envoy abstaining from voting
on Sir John Bradbury's motion for
granting Germany an unconditional
moratorium for the balance Of the
year. The compromise project then
was voted into effect unanimously.
The commission formally postponed

Debt Modification Necessary.
What is important in the above
enumeration of contemplated reforms
is the commissions recognition of the
necessity fer modifying the total Ger.
man indebtedness to the allies.
The Belg'ans urged this thesis on
the ground that the whole question of
reparations and inter-allied debts
must be rerashed next November. The
commission finally finds that in order

stated that boards of supervisors and

A LETTER OF CONDOLENCE
FROM ELKDOM

AT the regular meeting of Gopher
Lodge No. los, March 9th, a commit
tee was appointed by the Exalted
Ruler to send a letter of coincidence
to brother Rev. Joseph Strong who
lost his wife on March 1st, 1922.
Rev. Joseph Strong,
st. Paul, Mimi,
Dear Friend and Brother:-
1t is with sincere regret that it
has become the painful duty of CO.
pher Lodge, No. los, B p o E w
to share with you and to extend con-
dolence in your very recent bereave-
ment, the loss of your companion In
life's struggles, and we point you to
Him who says, II will be a father TO
the fatherless and a husband to the
widow" 1t is Gods way, his will be
done.
Dedicated to the memory of Mrs.
Julia Strong she sleeps):
God gives us ministers of love
which we regard not being near death
who takes them from us. Then we
feel that angels have been with us
here.
A Mother, Sister, Friend and Wife
they guide us, cheer us, sooth our
pain, and when the grave has closed
between our hearts and theirs, we
love in vain.
She sleeps, she sleeps when the
morning light disperses the shadows
of solemn night, when dew drops are
cleaning on the leaf and spray,
when blossoms are wooing the new
born day, when birds are singing o'er
hill and glen, will she wake, will she
speak to her loved ones then?
She sleeps, she sleeps when the
gentle spring returns from its south
land wondering when breezes sing,
and the children play, when the reap
ers scatter the new mown hay, when
they gather the shelves of the golden
grain, will she wake-will she come
to her home again? She sleeps, she
sleeps when the chilly winds shake
the yellow leaves from the withered
vines, when the autumn moon is full
and red, when the birds are gone and
the flowers are dead, when the frost
on the sward lies deep and hoar, will
she wake, will she come to her home
once more?
She sleeps, she sleeps when they
meet at night in the cheerful glow of
the home fire light, when the wintry
winds are wild and high, when skies
are black in the cold gray sky, when
her husbands brow is pale with care,
will she wake, will she come to her
dear ones here? Deep silence now.
Never more will her foot steps fall by
the old home door, nor her voice be
heard with its loving tone by the loved
ones left by her own hearth
stone. She has gone. She has gone to
her home, a far, to the beautiful
land where the angels are.

Questions and Answers.

Electrical Editor: Why does my
vacuum cleaner work well in some
rooms and not at all satisfactory in
others? Is something the matter
with the electricity in the rooms
where II does not clean well?
T. G. F.
The trouble is probably due to the
difference in the rugs or carpets.
Some different weaves Of fabric may
require different adjustment Of the
suction nozzle of your vacuum
cleaner. All cleaners, we believe,
are provided with a simple means
of raising and lowering me nozzle.
The proper height for hest results
Is 1.16 tot is inch above the sur
face of the floor or rug.
On deep soft floor coverings the
wheels or casters of the machine
will naturally sink into the nap OF
the fabric so that the nozzle should
be adjusted higher on such rugs than
on those which are tightly woven.

A hot day and big ironingi What
are you going to do about 1t? DO
II electrically Is the answer.
Manufacturers Of electrical equip
ment, realizing that there are no
more irksome tasks than washing
and ironing, have perfected machines
to do the work with ease and speed.
When you do II electrically you
do 1t quickly. conveniently ana eco
nomically. 1t surprises most people
how littlesit costs to operate cleo
trio ironing machines, irons, fans
and washing machines. A small
initial payment brings these appn'
ances into your home; and II the
wages paid to the laundress are ap-
piled as weekly payments. you own
the appliances in an incredibly short
time.
An electric ironing machine Will
do 80 per cent of the family ironing.
including frilly blouses, ruffled
dresses and the daintiest OF under
things. The labor of ironing Is al
most entirely eliminated by the elec'
trio ironing machine. 1t is a mere
matter of turning on the machine
and guiding the pieces through the
heated rolls and over the heated
surface. The cost of installation is
soon covered by saving the weekly
wages formerly paid to help. EST
mating that two hours are required
to iron the average family laundry.
the cost Of operation Is about Is cents
week.
Whether you own an electric iron
ing machine or not you need an cleo
trio iron. There is a six.pound iron
for the larger pieces and a dainty
three and one half FOUNDER for the
fussy and intricate pieces.
II costs only 6 cents an hour to
operate a six-pound iron at high
heat: but the current Is turned of
from time to time to prevent over
heating, and accordingly 1t Is esti
mated that a six.pound iron may be
operated an hour for 4 cents and
the lighter weight iron for less than
cents an hour.
An oscillating electric fan to keeI
cool. fresh air in circulation lasts a
lifetime and costs less than half q
cent an hour to operate.
