GREEK KING HELD;
FEAR EXECUTIONS
PRINCE ANDREW GOES TO TRIAL
BY THE GREEKS.
BULGARIA HOLDS LEADERS
Twenty-Four Former Officials to Be
Tried by Court Consisting Of
war Widows and Wounded
Soldiers.

London.-The British are much dis
turbed over the further Greek arrests,
Indicating that the Greeks are still UNI
repentant for their barbarous eXecu-
ton recently of six former leaders.
The British are particularly worried
over the knowledge that Prince An
drew (Constantines brother) is to
be tried and King George, Constan-
tines successor, is now virtually q
prisoner.
Similar executions are feared in
Bulgaria, where "a former government
officials are under arrest and will be
tried by a court constituted Of war
wounded and war widows. The ma
ton, at recent election, voted that
these men should be tried and pre-
scribed the method of trial. Similar
executions of former Turkish leaders
in Constantinople, by the Kemalists,
are also feared. Constantine has is
sued an appeal to the powers on De-
half of Prince Andrew.
Rome-The vatican is to make d.
rect protest to the Greek government
against the execution of the former
Greek ministers. Pope Plus has or
dered the papal nuncio at Berne to
make representations to Eliphtherlos
Venizelos of the Greek delegation at
Lausanne against further executions
of former public officials in Greece.
Athens-The following official state
ment was issued:
Gen. Dousmanis, former chief OF
the general staff, and Gen. Valetras,
former chief of staff in Asia Minor,
have teen arrested, and warrant has
been issued for the arrest OF Gen.
Pauoulas, former n-chief
Of the army in Asia Minor.
THE trial of Prince Andrew tine
brother OF former King Constantlne)
who commanded an army corps at
the time of the Sakaria operations,
begins next week"
Athens.-The execution of the SIX
Greek ministers-a step taken by the
revolutionary government despite the
grave warning of the allied diplomats
represents not only loss to Greek
prestige among the world powers, but
also the triumph of the younger, hot
headed former Greek officers, who
form one of the most dangerous ele-
ments in the near east situation.

MEDTTATIONS OF 4
MARRIED WOMAN
IT CAN-T BE DONE

Every day. in every way, life is
becoming sweeter and sweeter-for
men
And NOW--it is suggested that
when a man takes girl out for the
evening. she shall pay her share OF
the supper check and tips.
Perfectly lovely-but not for love
~ woman!
1t is a beautiful theory, this
fifty fifty arrangement; but catch
any woman trying to make it work,
The howl Of masculine protest
would be heard in high Heaven.
She may pay half the price Of the
imported set of china-but no man
will ever cons der that he should do
half the dish washing. or iron the
embroidered doil.es with his own
fair hands.
When a man actually takes care
OF his OWN clothes, counts his own
laundry. and sews the buttons on his
own shirts, half the neighbors ac-
claim him as a world wonder. and
the other half secretly despise him
as a "henpecked husband"
He, himself. feels that he is some
thing between a martyr and a molly
coddle. He doesn't know whether
he should be wearing a gold medal
or a fOoIs-cap.
A normal man never asks, "Have
you seen my hat?"
He asks, 'Where'd you PUT my
hat?"
He doesn't inquire thoughtfully,
What shall We have for dinner, to-
day?"
He says, threateningly, well,
what've we GOT for dinner today?"
He never suggests, Come, let's
put UP the new curtains."
He groans. Have I GOTTA put
UP those curcains?"
When he wants to sleep late on
Sunday mornings, its HIS house"
But when the furnace won't
work. it's why do you keep YOUR
house so cold?
When Dotty wins the prize az
school, he speaks proudly of my
clever little daughter" but when
che is Obstre porous, he says, why
can't you make YOUR child be-
have?"
No, dear optimistic heart Man
has escaped all these soul-harrow-
ling little esoons1hl!tes, ever since
Eve furnished the first meal And
/ unless he is extremely foolish, ne
win never be so stupid as to take
! them on himself,
And when one Of them, in a rare
moment. DOES try it. he makes
such muddIe Of things, that wom-
an is only too glad to hand him his
| hat, and tell him to run along and
| play" while she straightens them
| out!
Thus endeth the "ffty-ffty mar.
riage" myth

ADVICE TO GIRLS
By Annie Laurie
DEAR ANNIE LAURIE:

DEAR ANNIE LAURIE:
am a girl Of is. considered
good-looling. and of good character.
I have been keeping company with a
young man who is five years my
senior. and whom I love with all my
heart. and 1 know he cares more
FOR me than any other girl. He pro-
posed 10 me. and I told him 10 wait
a month or so until 1 talked 20 my
mother.
But norv he has stopped calling
We had a few words. and he has
never called since. He asked me II
wanted him 10 come back, and
told him he could if he wanted to-.
But he never came back
didn't know I cared 80 much for
him. L have been going about with
two young men since I quit him. but
1 don't want to so with anybody
else.
Please tell me how I can win his
love back. I am too proud to ask
him to call Please give me your adj
vice. BROKEN-HEARTED.
BROKEN-HEARTED: IF you want
10 have things on the old footing.
my dear, the only thing TO do is TO
pocket your false pride and ask the
young man 10 can again. Then YOU
can have a friendly tank with him
and straighten things out.
DEAR ANNIE LAURIE:
/ am a very young girl. but 1 like
a young man about one year my
junior. He was very nice to me un-
iii lately he began going with an
other girl about four years his
senior. He is polite now. but does
not seek my companionship as he
used 10. Do you think I should give
him up to this girl or try to win
him back? GRAY EYES.
GRAY EYES: You are too young
to seriously consider marriage, my
dear, and since you are not engaged
to this young man YOU have no right
to expect him to give up his other
friends for you.
DEAR ANNIE LAURIE:
1 am a girl 10 years old and 1 like
a young man whom I have known
for a long time. I wish very much
to so with this young man. Please
tell me what TO do. I mean, shall !
invite him down. or what?
A bunch of young girls, including
myself go around to parties quite a
bit At some of these parties there
are young men who wish to take US
home. Some object because the
young men do not call at our
homes and do not take US to those
parties. Please advise US what to
do, as we girls have discussed this
matter several times. CHUBBY.
CHUBBY: Invite the young man
to call on YOU. This is the proper
way TO start a friendship.
1t is perfectly proper for any
/ young man who may be at a party
to escort you home.
! DEAR ANNIE LAURIE:
! 1 am a man - years Of age and
have been going with a young wo-
man for a year. We love each other
very much. but her parents don't
want her to so with me- l have a
chance to go with other girls. but
1 love this one. Please tell me
what to do-whether to go with her
or with others.
NOT FORGOTTEN.
NOT FORGOTTEN: Do you do
anything which justifes the young
