What is the real truth of the Garden Of Eden

Paris, Dec. PA vast project for

within a few years the countryside
would be a network of electric power
lines reaching tens of thousands of
farms and furnishing them with power
for labor-saving machinery.

Modification of Volstead Act
Object of St. Louis
Meeting.

st. Louis, Nov. 2o.-Steps to organ
ize the wet forces in every state to
obtain modification of the Volstead
act were discussed at a two-day meet
ing of the National Association OPP
posed to the Prohibition Amendment,
which began here Monday.
Predictions were made by delegates
that the liquor question probably would
be the principal. issue of the 1924 presi-
Dental election as a result Of claims
being made the vets won a sweeping
victory in the recent general election.
Denial that a third major political
party favoring amendment of the Vol
stead law was planned was made by
delegates, who said that wet candidates
of either the republican or democratic
parties would be supported, and that
where candidates of both major par
ties were found not suitable, an indie
pendent nominee would be supported by
the association.
William L. Fish, who assisted in the
election of Governor Edwards of New
Jersey to the United States senate on
a light wine and beer platform, en-
phasized that the prohibition question
would be the principal issue in the next
general election,

TIGER Of FRANCE
GROWLS As DOCTOR
INSISTS ON TESTS
Examine the Dogs and Snakes,
But Let Humans Alone,
Says Frenchman.

New York, Nov. 20.-George Gle
-lmenceau, the Tiger of France, Monday
was the guest of Ralph Pulitzer, pub
Usher Of the New York World, at q
luncheon at the Ritz Carlton hotel and
was to attend a reception by the
Franco-American society at the home
of Thomas w. Lamont.
Clemenceau arose at 5 o'clock Mon
day morning and after an early break
fast started work on the speech he will
deliver Tuesday night.
The Tiger said he was feeling fine
despite the strain of the last two days
receptions. He had come to the con-
c%iusion, he declared, that American
women were eve more beautiful now
than they were a half century ago
Then, he added, he had thought they
could not be improved upon but two
snort days in twentieth century Amer
lea had shown him his error.
DIR. Francis Leclecq, physician, who
came to renew his acquaintanceship
with Clemenceau begun in Paris years
ago, heard the first growl Monday.
When DIR. Leclecq began to tell him of
some new medical discoveries which
might lead to the indefinite prolonga-
ton of human life Clemenceau said:
You keep quiet about that. Other
wise I will kill you. Cure the snakes,
the dogs and the cats. That's all right.
But leave human beings alone. Let
them die happy"
Clemenceau declined an invitation to
visit Canada preferred to him by w. j.
Morton. a Canadian journalist.

MRS. FELTON, HOLDS
FIRMLY To DESIRE
FOR SENATE BERTH
Aged Woman to Try Today to
Get Recognition From
Scion Leaders.

Washington, Nov. 20.-Mrs. w. ii.
FELTON, Of Georgia waited in vain for
al hour and a half in the senate cham
Der Monday to learn whether senate
leaders would permit her to take her
seat as the first woman senator, IN
view of the recent election of Walter
f. George as her successor. After
much shaking Of heads over the prob
lem, the senate managers decided to
let a decision go over until Tuesday.
Mrs. W, Fl. FELTON, of Georgia took
the most direct method Monday to i'm
press upon senate leaders that if she
did not succeed in taking her seat as
the first senator, it would not
be through any fault of hers.
From a place in the rear of the seats
on the democratic side of the chamber,
the S7-year-old Grand Old Woman of
Georgia" peered out through her spec
tacles upon the opening formalltles OF
the special session and then without
a motion of her name having been given
in the senate. record she saw an adj
journment taken until Tuesday as a
mark of respect for the late Senator
Watson, to whose place she had been
appointed by Governor Hartwick.
Mrs. FELTON, said she would continue
her efforts to be seated for a day, and
it was indicated that the senate was
prepared to act Tuesday. Some of the
best informed leaders predicted she
would not be successful.
Senator officials said there vas no
thought in their early adjournment
Monday of temporizing on their deci.
sion. They explained that the usual
custom of doing honor to a dead sena-
tor was followed, and that it was i'm
possible to receive a new senator until
formal notification of the death had
been received with the customary i'm
mediate adjournment.
Several times Mrs. FELTON, was
cheered from the gallery. There was
q demonstration of half an hour before
the senate convened when former Sen
ator Smith of Georgia escorted her
down the center aisle to the vice presi-
dents ROOF and introduced her to Mr.,
Coolidge. The galleries, filled mostly
with women, applauded, and the aged
Georgia woman stopped just before the
chair of the presiding officer. turned
and threw a kiss to those who had
greeted her as the first woma ever
to be appointed to the senate.
