Shot By Anarchist.

Shot by the 19-year old anarchist, Emile Cotton, on Feb. 2, 1919, Clem- enceaq joked with the doctor who at tended him. The anarchists hunted the tiger but missed him. he re- marked Cotton was senteneced to death, but Clemenceau urged commit tat1on and the youth received 10 years Imprisonment When President thy the aged statesman told him his hide" was ''too thick for a bullet to pierce.''
 Upon the completion of the draft or the Peace Treaty by the Supreme Inter-Allied conference, Clemenceau who had presided at the historical gathering, bade his colleagues adieu with the observation: '1 have done my best. I think it is a good peace"
 Although radical in French pol itics, Clemenceau had no use for Bol. shevism. Questioned about the Rus sian situation in December of 1915 he said: We not only will not make peace, but we will not compromise with the government of the Soviets. We have decided that we will be the allies of all peoples attacked by Bol- shevism." He at the same time ex- pressed his confidence in the Anglo Franco-American agreements and predicted a solution of the Fiu1ue problem.
 ''The Plume question has been az onizing," he declared. Italy prom lSeu tune to the JuSO-SIdNS put went back on her promise. France, England and the United States have sought a solution and the latest indi- cations are that it will be reached Only when this is accomplished can we begin to breathe freely
 Clemenceau's address at StraSbourg in November of 1919, referred to at the time as "his political valedictory to France" was a remarkable plea for universal tolerance and social justice. Among its most striking pas sages were:
 the social and economic chaos from which it is now emerging is work"
 "Government must be based upon public order and the respect of in rights

TO TAKE CANADIAN
MONEY AT PAR HERE
Many Lynden Stores Decide To
Accept 1t without Charging
Exchange

A majority of Lynden's busi-
ness institutions decided this
week to accept Canadian money
at par for the first time since
the war.
Lynden has always had sub
stantial Canadian trade, and ii
is felt that the action of the mer-
chants will serve to induce these
customers to return to the city
again. During the war, exchange
rose as high as twenty per cent,
and this extra cost barred the
Canadian trade.
The Lynden banks are Coop
Grating with the merchants In
the move, both institutions agree
ing to handle the Canadian mon
ey for the business houses at act
ual cost to them.
Canadian exchange has been
around four per cent in Lynden.
Recent advances in the Canadian
dollar have been marked, follow
ing the rise Of the British pound
to $4.44.
