 sentative, declines to give pledge that the Kemalists will respect the neutral zone. War on O larger scale comes nearer, but it not yet inevitable. Turks order the British out of Constantinople. The British, who have received such orders on many occasions, dig deeply in ard get the high explosives ready. The GreeKs, meantime are getting back to their country as fast as they can.
 
 The Greeks haven't been really defeated in battle. The Allies, Italy, France and so on opposed the Greek venture into Asia Min or. Greek Government gave the order not to carry the war furth- CT. Then little was left for the Greek Army to do, but retreat, so initiating the retreat of the Ten Thousand, they have ga11antly cx- tricated themselves from q diff cult situation.
 If the next war starts it will be disagreeab1e. Russia, with IsO,00o, o,0G0, more or less. will side with the Turks. German engi- neers will flock into Russia. high grade technical men each and all. Armament plants will spring up in a night High explosives will be manufactured in no time. and the fighting will be real. Re member how rapidly the United States equipped for war.
 Russia, with German help, will be almost as fast The outlook is cheerful. But the betting is upon the opinion that there is still in Europe recollection enough of what has happened, to prevent a war now.

 The recI1esSry driven automo- bile is no respecter of persons. The wrecked car loves a shining victim. Charles Gary Rlmsey. millionaire, polo player, sculptor and son-tn-law of Mrs. E. H. Harrtman, was killed last evening at the Jericho Turnpike A tire collapsed. The roadster in which Rumsey sat turned completely around. Rumsey was thrown out and his skull was crushed. I've weren't going more than twenty miles an 1our." the driver said. The phenomena are not those which accompany 8 tire burst at twenty miles an hour. Tn the very presence of death man has his little excuses.
 Tn Toledo. Ohio, real beer is crowding out near beer, says & news item. There will be an in- Aux of Federal agents, and near beer will come back. Nothing is so unfortunate for a successful wet neighborhood as to get mem tioned in the newspapers. That is even worse than a widely dis trfbuted service of wood alcohol. In the one case only those stop drinking who perish. In the other case, there is nothing for anybody to drink.

 The astronomers at Woo1a1, near Broome. Australia, have watched an eclipse of the sun. They saw four long streamers of light extending 2.5O0,o0o miles into space. They photographed stars near the sun. All this to determine whether star light. as it passes near the sun, is more deflected from a straight path. than the great Newton supposed.
 Are stars where they seem to be, or are they some where else? Set a lamp in front of a mirror, set at an angle, observe the light reflected from the mirror, and the lamp will seem to be where the mirror is- Many facts, which may or may not be of practical importance to man, hinge upon the conclusions regarding this matter, So far the Einstein the ory is said to have the best of it.
 
 In Singer Company they held a primary to choose candidate for Good Will Selection More votes were cast than frequently are cast in a political primary in Bridgeport, which shows that men and women vote when they are interested. This will be real election, in which more votes will be boiled than in any city election. Very interesting. Also useful. Good will between France and America Is much to be de- sired.
