DRENIIERS LLOYD GEORGE AND
POINCARE met privately in
France Sunday for the purpose of ar
ranging the agenda for the Genoa con-
ference on the economic and financial
regeneration of Europe. There are re-
ports that the conference may be post
pOned for several weeks. Of course
the European nations are exceedingly
desirous that the United States shall
take part in the meeting, but this
grows more unlikely as time passes.
Secretary Hoover, in a WashingtOn's
birthday address in Chicago, gave
what might be considered an unofficial
expression of the administrators
views on this matter. Without becom-
ing too specific, he made it plain that
the United States could not be ex-
pected to lend assistance to the nations
of Europe until they had worked out
some of their present pressing prob
lens, including unbalanced budgets,
overtaXed peoples, large armies and
an unbearable debt, both domestic and
external-all bearing their fruit of in
tiation and instability"
Mr.. Hoover added: 1--WE find our
selves much torn between an earnest
desire to be of service and a rightful
desire to keep ourselves free from
matters to which we are not a party
and which we cannot remedy; partici-
patton in which, nevertheless, would
undermine our strength, our influence
and our ability to render real service
in the future"

THE resignation of Judge Kenesaw
NJ. Lands from the federal bench
of the northern Illinois district is
cause for sincere regret, except per
haps on the part of baseball fans.
Though often spectacular in methods
and speech, Judge Lands was always
fearless, just and impeccably honest,
and he had an uncanny ability to get
at the truth and a cOmmendable
tendency to ignore unimportant tech
nicalities. If these latter qualities
were shared by the lesser judiciary of
the region where Judge Lands has
been exercising his activities there
would be less cause to complain of the
prevalence of crime there and of mis-
carriages of justice.

of the late thirties and early fortieS,

10 think that any one is crcdulous

are too many he could get for the asking.

Heaven knows n womanstakes.e enough

before she met him al the altar, and
whom she recognizes by his wearing
q red carnation IN his buttOnhOle as the
Romeo of the Matrimonial Gazette.
OF course all such marriages almost
invariably turn out disastrously for the
woman. She hasn't even a sporting
chance at happiness in such q union, yet
women who are old enough, and intelli-
gent enough TO know better, seriously
+ consider advertising for a husband,
when they can get one no other way.
Nowhere else Is society more Unjust
and illogical than IN It's attitude toward
the husband hunter. Nature made
matrimony woman's foreordained bust

the centuries have impressed on the
/ feminine mind that a woman finds her

and her sweetest reward in the holy
estate. The very toys that are given

Having thus made marriage the aim
and ambition Of woman's life, We not
only forbid her 70 60 and get the thing
she wants, but We are shocked and
Mortified when she even admits that she
desires it. We think it natural, and even
commendable, when q middle-agcd man

for a suitable wife. But Ia, la, when a

that she would like 10 have some mar

Now one of the things that every
woman knows is that if women were
permitted by custom TO do their hus-
band hunting openly, instead OF by

For women are wiser in matters Of the

WHEN YOUR PRESERVE AND
PICKLE SUPPLY RUNS LOW

At this season OF the year many
housekcepers find their preserve and
pickle supply running alarDingly low.
There are few fresh vegetables and
fruits with which TO replenish the sup
ply, SO cans must be resorted TO in a
measure. Try the following recipes:
Prline-Iemon Marmalade: Wash one
pound Of prunes and turn them into an
agate saucepan with three cups OF boil
ing water, the juice Of two lemons, the
rind of one lemon cut very small, IL
whole cloves and one-balf ounce Of
white ginger root white ginger root
costs about five cents an ounce, so
either buy one-half ounce OF this or
buy the full ounce and use half the
supply. Let this mixture boil for ono
hour, when the prunes will be fairly
soft. Then turn II into bowl to cool.
When cold, stone the prunes with clean
fingers, pick out the ginger root and
the cloves, and put the prune mixture
back into the granite saucepan with
one cup of graduated sugar and one
half cup OF boiling water; let it sim
mer on slow FIRE for one hour, stir
ring often to keep from catching to
bottom, and turn into clean, empty
Jelly glasses or preserve jars to store in
the ice chest for immediate use. This
recipe will fill about FIVE Jelly glasses
In cutting up the lemon rind and
pulp, be sure to get in all the thicl
white part which lies under the yellow
rind, as this white part contains The
pectin which makes the marmalade
thicken.

WHY DID DICKY STEAL MADGEG

Nv little prophecy concerning Kath-
crime was promptly fulfilled. After
a few hours of rest enforced by Lillian,
she declared herself more than ready
TO begin the delicate and arduous work
planned for her. Accordingly lAlllan,
katherine and l drove to DR.. Peuts
on the very evening OF the day she came
to us for the arrangement OF the neces-
sary preliminaries to her hospital en-
gagemont the next day.
The tall, grave physician welcomed my
little friend with more real, unaffected
cordiality than l had seen in him for
many months. / recalled that in the old
DAYS of my first acquaintance with kath-
crime, | had suspected DIR. Petit OF n
tenderness toward her, but l had de-
cided afterward that his feeling for her
was simply the admiration and liking OF
a physician for an unusually capable
and gifted nurse, who possessed besides
a most attractive personality.
But whatever his feeling OF the old
DAYS, DR.. Petit's pleasure IN seeing
katherine again was most patent, and
for few minutes Lillian did not in
terrupt the exchange of questions and
"reminiscences between them.
Indeed, it was Katherine herself who,
with characteristic thoughttulness, put
a period to the conversation and turned
TO Lillian with the apologize:

that YOU have something most important

have managed SO that no suspicion OF
anything out of the ordinary will attach
itself TO Mrs. Bicketts arrival at the
hospital" L;ihan's tone was assertivC
rather than questioning.
Fortunately, il arranged itself, DR.
Petit returned. The man whose cal
struck our unknown friend, was SO con-
science-stricken over the result of his
reckless driving that he ordered no ex
pense to be spared in his care. That
has meant private room, and private
nurse. But the staff of nurses Is short
handed. and my suggestion that coulC
