IA versailles Treaty, which
document France accepted
from Georges Clemenceau, the
old war premier, as sort of an incor-
rigibie i"stepehild," is, now in full
swing here. Damnation of the pact
that the "Tiger" will go to the United
states in November to defend is In
spired by the legitimate fear In inter
nal political circles that the eighty
one-years-old statesman Is preparing to
shrow his influence at least into the
'sray and may possibly lend himself to
subtle campaign in America to bolster
mp the cause Of the Democratic treaty
defenders.
The treaty has few champions IN
France. However. as the outcome Of
the wave Of denunciation now going on
can neither mean amendment Of the
document or it's replacement by
another, more acceptable TO France
the campaign must bear the stamp OF
an effort to counteract, In advance
what Ciemencesu is going TO say 10
Americans.
"Le Matin," che powerful Paris
newspaper is taking the lead to show In
unique manner that Frances fighters
: feel that France won the war but lost
the peace. The paper has interviewed
hundreds OF men who distinguished
themselves In the late war. To have
been decorated for bravery or war
service Is The only qualification under
which Frenchmen are allowed to de-
nounce the Versailles Treaty In the
"Matin.' These denunciations are not
only interesting hut sum up forcefully
and briefly what the French fighters
feel. Some opinions follow;

oE Sha sast twenty years the
ID population Of the County of
n London has been gradually
getting smaller. until now
sness are more than $4,000 fewer people
IA the county than theirs were in 1901.
On she other hand, the number of peo-
pie living In ths outer ring, or Lon
aon outside the county area, has in
creased by nearly million. At mid
night, June 10. 1921, the total popula-
sioa Of London, including its outer
rms, was 7,4so,2o1; in 1904 the agures
were 1891 ACE.
Ths British isles as whole. have
1,oo0tooo more women than men. and
sha city Of London alone contributes
Q quarter Of this figure. In 1921 tba
excess OF women over usa In London
ana her suburbs was 552, $50. The ten
years from 1911 60 1921 saw the male
population increase by only 57.so3.
wnase the number of women rained
from I, s,sAs,s4o to well over four mil
s'ons, making an increase OF lTi,24o,
oT thres times The total, Increase of
men. For this. however, the war
years lslA-1s are mainly responsible.
During these years shere was also
. great increase in the number OF
WIDOWS, the number going from 1877 ,sss

total population of Che county in this

sae number Of spinsters between
twenty and thirty years old has de-
creased In the last few years, there
mas been very large increase in their
number above the ages Of shirty-nine.
II has been suggested that this de-
crease in young and middle aged
single women Is probably due to emi-

ssl- and bishops could send kings
walking barefoot through Canterbury
has there Asen such clash between
Church and State In shis country. One
OF the lords temporal Of England has
been cxcommunicated by ono Of his
fellow peers, lord spiritual. That,
at Least 10 ss near 40 one can define
the quarrel between Bishop Buxgs Of
Oxford and the Duke Of Marlborough,
In which the clergy aad laity OF Eng
land have hastoncd to take hand.
The United States has an interest
In this quarrel, for 10 all arose over
the fact that the duke, having been
divorced by one American wife, mar
ried another. Strictly speaking, there
ia no such ching as accommodation
In the Anglican Church. But what
Bishop Burge has pulled" on His
Grace Of Marlborough 10 so near 70 1t
that IL makes no matter. q
The duke, 90 Lord Lieutenans Of OK
fordshire, Is ex-oficio member Of the
Oxford Diocesan Conference. But che
Bishop has debarred him from attend
ance on the ground thst "ho has not
the fall status Of communicant."
WhaE She Bishop means, though he did
not explicitly cay 30, is that the duke,
being divorced person" who has re-
married, has ipso fscto lost the full
status OF a communicant.
Tho Duke Of Marlborough Arst mar
ried Consuelo, daughter Of William x.
Vanderbilt. She divorced him In 1920,
after separation OF thirteen years.
When che decree wss made absolute
the duchess married N. jacques Bal
san and the duke married Gladys
Deacon who had been his first wsfe's
bridesmaid. The wedding OF Nine. Bal
san took place at the Savoy Chapel In
London, but she duke had considerable
difficulty In finding clergyman to give
the blessing Of the Church to his mar
r!age in Paris. Finally the ceremony
was conducted by Scottish pastor.
Bishop Puts Slight
Upon Duke he Warned
The action Of Bishop Burge was
made all the more impressive By the
fact that, as Lord Lieutenant, the duke
is the direct representative Of the
Kings peracn, with constitutional
right TO attend the conference as such.
Bishop Burge seems to have taken his
step quite gratuitously. He had b long
private interview with the duke after
his gemarraage last year and then
asked him not to avail himself OF his
right TO attend the conference. The
duke complied. This year there was
no interview and no request was made
TO him, nor In there any reason 60
believe chat the duke contemplated
attendance. Bishop Burge, therefore,
appears 60 have gone out Of his way
to put public affront upon the duke
Obviously the Duke of Marlborough
could not leave the matter where it
WAS. His FIRST step was TO cause his
solicitors TO issue TO the press q let
ter stating that "he possesses the
status oS conmunicaut with the
sanction OF his parish priests. both in
Ox9ordshire and In London, and with
the full knowledge OF the proper
ecclesiastical authority" Hs Is under
stood to be contemplating taking legal
action to clear Up his position In face
Of the Bishops challenge.
Whether the duke personally pur-
sues sho matter or not, che affair is
generally felt here to have precipitated
crisis in the relations between Church
and State on the question Of divorce.

MarigYisa, the BalReriyaa

Mariquita, the, favorite and famous
bailerinas whose death was recently an
nounced, went through life ignorant Of
her parentage and Of the date and
place Of .hsr. birth. Her early veara
were spent among rowing gypsies, and
she was passed from one band 20 an
other. The result was that when she
grew old enough to take an interest In
her origin and began to make INQUIRIES
about herself nobody could give her
any information. And this circum-
stance was for the dancer q aubject %
profound sadness which she did NOT
always succeed in discriminating.

There is little excuse for repulsive
medicines in healing child's cold.
Neither is a disagreeable internal
medicine necessary. Most of them
tend to upset the stomach and do
more harm than good.
Most children prefer their mothers
to use Camthol in treating their
coughs and colds because it is pleas
ant; it is applied externally, being
rubbed into the chest, throat and
temples and spread in the throat and
nostrils. They like it also because
it soothes and stops the irritation
and tickling in the throat. As it con-.
