FRENCH LOOKING AT
 TERMS OF TREATY
Want to See ii Pact Violates
 Versailles Terms

Parls, April 10 (By the Associated Press The separations commission is 10 be asked to consider whether the Russo German treaty signed al Rapallo on sunday violates the treaty of Versailles in respect to the German owned property in Russia, This property under the Versailles pact Is pledged to the commission for pay ment Of separations,
 II was announced this afternoon that Premier Poincare had requested Louis Dubois, French member of the separations commission 10 place off clally before the commission the nues- ton of the validity and legality of the Russo German pact, The premier also asked tho other allied govern ments 10 give similar instructions to their delegates on the commission.
 French Not Hasty.
 The French government will await action Of the commission before talk ing up the question officially with the allies. It is held. however, in official circles here that there Is distinct violation Of the Versailles treaty and il Is declared that whatever action the Genoa conference may take the allied powers cannot tolerate the pact.
 The recourse of the allies against the pact is the same as that against other violations of the peace treaty, and the present case is regarded only as adding one more to the other causes Of action on the German ques- ton which the allies will take up i'm mediatey after the Genoa conference.
 Premier Poincare also Is reported to have taken the initiative in an in vitation to the allied governments to consult together with view to mak- ing a joint representation to the Berlin government protesting against the Rapallo treaty.

The grim monster death, came a.
gain to our community February 2Sth
and claimed for its victim little En-
ma Belle Queen,age 7 years. II months
and days.
For several days she had been i'll
with typhoid fever and spinal menin-
gifts. which ended the little life that
was so full of sunshine and happiness.
She seemed to realize from the first
that she would never be well again.
How feeble are words to carry con-
ISOLATION to hearts bereaved of little
Emma Belief A tender clinging vine,
interviewer in sweet memories, from
the day she was first given to the
home, gentle spirit of light that fiji
ted in and out like CLEAN of sun
shine.
No one can fill her place in The
home, no one will take her place IN
our hearts, therefore it will be a sac
red thought in years to come, to rel
atives and friends, that she shed ra-
dance in the home as long as she did,
it will be a blessed recollection that
she grew to love everybody and be
loved by those who VIII so tenderly
cherish her sweet ana pure memory.
1t is decreed in the council of God
that we must part with those we love
best, therefore our consolation is, tina!
we believe in a meeting Ii the gred.

HOME WITHOUT A MOTHER.

What is home without a motherR
For so good and kind is she;
Not on earth will find another
That can take her place with me.
1t is she who keeps the things all
neat,
Even the stockings on your feet;
And she keeps the clothes all clean
Nice to wear and to be seen.
Not until she is dead, her you will
miss,
Then you will remember her last
sweet kiss;
And when on her bed she is dying,
And about to depart, she whispers
My son always be good.
You then burst out crying
For her dying words touch your
heart.
