Washington, Jan. 6-(By The As

ultimate settlement of the Shantung
controversy appeared brighter in some
quarters Saturday after the Chinese
, delegation had been assured by Arthur
]. Balfour and Secretary Hughes that
their offer of good Offices still held
good.

Because of the delicacy of the sit

delegate said he could not give any
details of what occurred in Saturday
meeting
Before meeting the Chinese, Mr.,
Hughes let it be known his talk would
be informal and was not to be con-
sidered as exercising good Offices"
1t was said he thought that the diff
culties between the Chinese and Jap
anese We're still open and that it would
be possible to reconcile the conflicting
views. 1t was asserted that Mr..
Hughes would do nothing toward
settlement of the Shantung dispute that
was not welcomed by both sides.
In the japanese camp. probably
more optimism prevailed regarding an
ultimate settlement than elsewhere.
This was based, it was said. on the
Japanese belief that the Chinese even
tually would recede from their posi-
ton concerning payment for the dis
puted railway by means of loan and
accept the proposal under which Jap
anese bankers would lend the Chinese
the money for 10 years with a five
year option.
In American quarters, however. the |
opinion is expressed that the differ |
ence is so small as to make q final |
unthinkable.

TO SORROW

Weary of tempest, and weary of tide,
Come in, my Sorrow, and sit by my side!
Cling to messing to me softly and low,
Why the lilies are dead, and Life loving
them so!
Why Love is dream of the beautiful
years,
And the stars in its heaven still shine
through its tears.
Weary of paths where Lies blooms are
denied,
Come in, my Sorrow, and sit by my side!
Chasten me-teach me the lowier way,
In the rain of the eyes meath the tresses of
Teach me how hearts still may bleed and
be strong
How Night may be light, and its shadows
a song!
Weary of deep seas whose pillows divide
Love from its own-sit thou down by my
side!
Even as turn from Joys vanishing form.
The one friend that's left me-the star in
LIES storm
And in lilies of light shall LIES grief be
forgiven:
Only through Sorrow Life finds its true
heaven!

THE OLD PINE TREES

The greatest place for man or beast,
Is out where the pine trees grow.
The birds sing sweet as you slumber on
Where the trees grow row on row.
AS you lie beneath the old pine trees,
And dream of the fish that bite,
Then you dream of the girl you left be-
hind,
You kissed her goodbye that night
When you wake in the morning feeling
fine,
And glad as the day is long,
You've never thought for the things that
were,
AS you march along in song.
You come to a brook while on your trail,
Where the trout seems glad at play.
You make your camp and say to yourself
This sure has been one fine day.
While the golden sun is creeping low,
You get out your rod and line
And say to yourself I'll have fry,
If l only catch one or nine.
Then after the evening meal is over
Out there in the evening breeze,
You know that the best place for man
Is out there with the old pine trees.
