To add 10 the difficulty, the compli-
Gated nature Of the covenant of the
league. gives Italy a perfect right to
deny the leagues competence to han
die her dispute with Greece.
And finally. as former Premier
Clemenceau said, before expecting the
league 10 work. it is necessary 10
create an atmosphere in which it can
work.
The first thing needed for that end
was TO nurture the worlds conception
Of the sacredness Of solemn engage
ments.
The English papers are criticizins
Italy for making too free with the
covenant, which is part Of the Yer
sailles treaty.
But did not England take similar
liberties with other parts of the
treaty, for example the parts relat-
ing to reparations and the punish
ment of war criminals?
The truth is that for five years
each nation has thought itself cleverer
than the others, and has tried to go it
alone.
Italy is simply doing as others have

Lord Takes Care of7Acres
Farmers Set Aside for Him

set aside here for the Lord.
Furthermore the seven farmers who
consecrated an acre each to the
church are prospecting in everything
they have planted.
In contrast TO their flourishing
farms is the devastation that has
been wrought everywhere in this Sec
ton by the boil weevil.
Cotton has been eaten up bodily
and almost without exception.
The only farmers near Arlington
who will make money this season, are
the seven who set aside an acre each
for Gods work.

CUERO "SKIN CLUB"
Unique Association Is Formed By
Contributors of Flesh.

Cuero. Tex, Sept. S.-A very
unique club has been formed in Cuero
composed of those friends of ID. D..
Sigmund, seriously burned in a kero-
sene oil blaze last fall, who submit
ted to skin operations on his behalf,
the hospital nurses and physicians and
few other interested parties.
There were some % young men Of
the town who gave of strips of skin
TO patch ~ the victims badly burned
and blistered body, scared from below
his waist TO his neck, some of them
having been operated on as many as
three times in his behalf, Is skin
grating operations having been per-
formed all told.
At chicken barbecue at which were
Sigmund, his several skin donators,
physicians and nurses. the club was
formed and in honor of the incidents
out of which it sprang it was named
the "Cuero Skin Club"
Francis Blakeslee n third time
skinned victim was elected president
of the club and a full set of officers
was named. Two local physicians
who performed the operations and the
grating were designated respectively
as "Chief Skin EN- Quick" and
~Chief Skin EN- Rough"
After being in the hospital for
nearly ten months the burned man is
back at his place of business able to
carry on his managing duties, though
his hands are too tender for actual
work, and able to drive his car about
town anywhere he zoos
During the process of the opera
tions and skin grating many of the
willing contributors of the skin were
walking about town with canes and
a decided limp, and some of them
waited several weeks themselves be-
fore they were over their operations.

They only want square deal. They
want fair prices.
