zA.LlTTLE HoMELY PHILOSOPHY

Why do we waste so much Of our time on things
that do not count when every heart beat is bearing
us across times narrow boundary onto the broad
bosom Of an eternity that has no shore2 Ill., T..
And what is it that we seek so assiduously that
we are willing to waste lives, to sacrifice our
independence; to live artificial existence! y.
What's the answer?
Why do so many of us strive to impress upon all
With whom we come in, contact with an exaggerated
idea Of our own Importance? Why is that we
want all-the tax collector alone ,excepted-to be-
Ieve that we are weather. than we are; pretend
to knowledge that we do not possess; repeat that
which we do not comprehend; remain ignorant all
the days of our life, rather than acknowledge our
Intellectual bankruptcy and ask information?
It is because we realize that we do not amount to
much and that our fellows will find us out?
It must be- so, for we buy silk shirts and at the
same time are chilled for the lack Of warm cloth
ing. Our lady's hose may simmer, but there are
holes in the toes. We are vain and unnatural
When there is company III the house, we call the
good wife "honey and t'Set' and dear, and then
when the last guest has left we grow at her like
cur the collie ~ ~
We waste our lives .enacting foolish farce and
vainly trying to make the world believe that it
reality. OF course it does not make US happy, nor
do We deserve to be-. '~S7,'<

ally hang on to the. fag end Of hope j.: II

FATHER PHILIPPE FOR BEMlDJI

Friends Of Father Philippe, and he has hundreds
Of them in Bemidji, regret exceedingly that he has
been requested to take up his work in another
field. Efforts are being made to keep hin, in Be-
midi, because he has always been for Bemidji.
Just why he has been asked to take up, his duties
elsewhere is not known to US, but the general feel
ing is that Bemidii should make every effort TO-
keep him for Bemidji. He lis a splendid type of
gentleman and willing worker in -civc affairs,
and at the same time performs the duties of his
parish in capable manner. Facts regarding his
general popularity should be presented to the pow
ers that be, before final decision is made. ~. 81

At midnight they came to the lights

were turning out for the midnight patrol.
Lieut.. James Leith asked them what
they wanted. They stood in front of
his desk and told him they merely
wanted drink of water. They got the
water and some ice cream that Lieut..
Leith had sent for. In the meantime

According to the reflections from the
headquarters OF the allied delegates TO
to-morrow's conference. what optimism
exists is confined to the hope of reach
ing an agreement on some kind OF
moratorium. None Of the spokesrnen OF
the delegations would admit that there
Is any basis for tho fear expressed by
Frank A. Vanderlip in an article In the
N0tiosr this week. in which he predicts
that the mark will fan 50 low that IL
will be impossible for Germany to pur-
chase more than two-fifths of the food
and one-third OF the fodder she needs
abroad and that starvation and revoiu-
tion will result.
MIR. vanderlip says that England will
not act as she believes she ought be-
cause she fears Frances 100000 men
and 2,70o airplanes. ~ II came to . real
break with her old ally British spokes-
men laugh at the possibility OF a break
as well as at the suggestion of Great
Britain's fear of the potential threat
They assert further that the conference
has the power TO check the marks fall
and expects to do so. But beyond what
Is contained In the Baifour note they re-
fuse to specify what they have In mind.
Tho British admit that they would
like to cut the repsrations and demand
disarmament, but they realize that the
French cannot be expected to 20 this
far. and no British spokesman Is going
so far as to say that the Entente ought
TO be ruptured on that account.

Paratore and NJ. Jaspar and NJ.
Theunis, Belgium. all of whom arrived
tonight. The conference is expected
to open in Downing street at IL
o'clock tomorrow morning.
Both NJ. Theunis and NJ. Jaspar in
talking with the newspaper men to-
night said the greatest care and ret
icence were advisable owing 10 the
delicate nature OF the conference. It.
was intimated by the Belgian dele
gates. however. that Belgium would
have deal to say in the conference.
because If moratorium were granted
to Germany Belgium would be the first
TO suffer. as all German cash payments
for the present year are intended for
Belgium.
"A moratorium" said NJ. Jaspar. is
not the solution. Yesterday the EslEiaa
Parliament voted fresh heavy taxation.

ber This proves the vital urgency OF
the situation. We are making every pos
sible sacrifice. but Immediate reparation
is necessary. not for pleasure. but be-
cause there i5 something to repair"
The Belgian delegates left the impress
sion that IL was their view that Bel
gium cannot exist without reparations
payments.
Signor Schanzer. the italian Foreign
Minister, said: IT cannot but regret
that the United States is not partici-
pating In this conference. I would like
to have Mr.. Hughes (the American Sec
retary of State) sitting there. bringing
the weight OF America into the discus
sion: bringing his initiative and judg
ment and courage into the settlement OF
this confused, disorderly and dangerous
situation"
The problems were so great, Sisnor
Schanzer remarked, that it vas doubt
full if they could be cleared up at the
present conference. but a step forward
might be made.
Signor Schanser admitted that Italy
had her own ideas as to the situation.
but that he had brought no definite
plan. ItaIy's desire. firs. OF all. he
said. was To hear the programs of
Great Britain and France. The Italian
statesman admitted that interallied in
cebtedness must be subject TO discus
sion. owing to the intimate connections
OF that question with reparatsons.
