JULIA TAKES HER CHANCE.

By Concordia Merrell. Thomas Settler
This plot has been used before but
never more skillfully. The heroine
has appeared many times but Miss
Merrel endows her with fresh charm.
The same guardian was endured and
then embraced in Daddy Long Legs
and dozen other novels, and yet as
Julia's guardian he is just little d!t
ferent The essential difference seems
to be in the enthusiasm with which
the author presents her story. There
is no need to herald this as a book by
a new author, the first five pages
shout it aloud Miss Merrel honest
y believes that this is the first time
a beautiful young novice succeeds on
the London stage; the first time an
actress is loved b van earl; the very
first time hated guardian turned out
to be young and irresistible. And she
gets away with it. Sucn an ingenious
mind is worth thousands. II Miss
Merrel can keep it, she will have the
most skeptical public believing in fal-
ries. A. R. D.

Not Thought This Govern
ment Will Participate
in Genoa Conference
Also Believer Announcement VIII lie
Received From rome Iostponlng
Proposed Conclave Indefinitely

Washington, Feb. lit is conf
IDENTIFY expected in official circles that
President Harding will announce
soo1 the decision Of this Government
TO participate in the Genoa Con-
ference, called to deal with the tangled
economies of Europe.
That an announcement will be forth
coming soon from Rome within
short time, either postponing the con-
ference indefinitely or until June or
July, also is expected. Because the
formal invitations to attend the con-
ference were inssued by the Italian
Government, all announcements regard
ing it would naturally proceed from
that source, it is stated.
The American response to the ltal-
ian invitation, it is said, was complet-
ed Thursday, but it is not known
whether it was dispatched or Will be
held until President Harding had con-
fided to this country the Admlnlstra-
tons present attitude toward the
conference.
This response, it is learned, will not
refer unappreciatively to the move
mcnt in Europe looking to a solution
for the financial problems of Euro
pean powers, but it will indicate that
America is not now in position to
assist materially in that solution.
If the promoters Of the conference
go ahead with their original plan OF
assembling the conclave in March,
it seems unlikely that this Govern
ment will be represented even by an
official observer.
Alexandria gazette. [volume] (Alexandria, D.C.) 1834-1974, 1922-02-11

Should the postponement be order
ed, however, America will have an OBJ
server at Genoa, even though it is
not found desirable at that time to
send formal delegation. Because of
the attitude of France and the United
States toward the conference it does
not appear probable to officials here
that it can accomplish much if any
thing, should it be convened March 8,
as proposed. With the French Govern
ment the key to the German repara-
tions situation and with America the
key to the international debt situa-
ton, it seems to Administration of
fic;als futile for an economic confer
ence to DELIBERATE in the absence of

NIGHTFALL.
By Anthony Pryde.

BY Anthony fTyue.
This is not only an intensely inter-
sting study in psychiatry but one of
he hest novels of the year from the
mint of good workmanship and sus-
aimed interest. The clear cut char
rcters and delightful atmosphere
alone raises it above the level OF
average fiction. Anthony Pryde knows
he people of whom he writes SO en-
ertainingly; knows and likes Laura
and Val and Isabel; knows and pities
bernard; knows and witholds judy
:nent upon Lawrence Hyde
The character of Bernard Cloves
'ascinates while it revolts: The au-
author has shown remarkable insight
md sympathy in his delineatlon OF
his character. 1t would have been
easy to make him sinister inquire, TO
,verdraw the black RACES which tor
;ure the morbid mind and ravage the
orostrate body; it would have required
wen less art to make him the object
# a too sympathetic treatment, to
let. pity for the once powerful body
blind the eyes to the plottings OF a
diseased brain.
The keynote of the story's treat
,nent is restraint, prompted by a hne
sense of values.

TWO STEPS TOWARD A
GREATER ALEXANDRIA

The contract for the construc-
ton of the highway between
Alexandria and Fairfax Court
House was signed Thursday by
the State Highway, Commission,
and the road now seems to be an
assured fact. We published the
news in yesterdays Gazette, and
at the same time Mr.. Clarkson,
local manager Of the Chesapeake
and Potomac 7 telephone compa--
ny, gave us an interview on what
he considered as, one. Of the most
important of 2As proposed i'm
provements for a Greater Alexan-
dria. BY curious coincidence,
he dwelt on this very topic. Els
pecially interesting is the infornna-
ton he gives as to the contrast
between the Fairfax Road to
Washington and the Fairfax
Road to Alexandria. He says
that by reason of the improved
road to Washington the vegeta-
bles and country produce of all
kinds from the Fairfax section go
to the capital, there to be resold
to Alexandria markets. Even
those farmers who live nearer
to this city prefer to go miles out
of their way to Washington, find
ing it quicker and cheaper. Again,
the Washington markets get first
pick Of the choicer and frcsher
vegetables, and Alexandrians get
what is left over, and pay two
profits to boot.
Again, says Mr.. Clarkson, in
addition to the cheapening Of the
cost of living, intercourse be-
tween Our neighbors and ourselves
will be rnrch facilitated and great
" increased, and this would be a
mutual advantage of inestlmable
value. !,
We understand this matter is to
come up before the City Council
