IT'S Sunday and all the noise of
the work-a day world has ceased and
all is still and tranquil. 1t is just the
kind Of a day to don slippers and
smoking jacket and sit peacefully by
the fire and read and commune with
ones self Outside the snow is swirl

stiffness and purity of the day
o o @ o
A snowclad expanse of landscape
is always charming to see.
And what magic the big SHOWS of
the winter always work, Disgusting
as they do in their Immaculate folds
all the objects until the most common
place and uninteresting assume real
objects of beauty. Rough hollows in
the woods are smoothed to mere
fluctuations and on the open prairie
they are made deceitful to both the
eye and the foot, the level fields so
piled with drifted heaps and ridges
that one scarcely recognizes them.
The sod house way out in the sand
hills is as regally rooted as the city
palace; the lowly sagebrush becomes
magnificent; the rudest hedge is one
of pearl finer than wall of marble
while the meanest wayside weed be-
comes the purest flower of elfinland.
The thin woods down by the silent
river, which the frost and winds of
November stripped of the leafy thatch
is basque of alabastor more deli
cate than that of green and filmy
June, while all the floor is set in
noiseless pavement, traced with a
shifting pattern of blue shadows. In
the still aisles the echos are smoth-
cred before they start.
There is no response of airy voices
to the faint call of the wintry birds,
the chickadee, in his velvet cap and
the nut hatch his suit of gray.
And while the wind bowls outside
and the snow eddies around the win
dows it is meet to think of our friends

LLOYD GEORGE SAYS
Continued From Page II

without further parley he would have
bombarded Ajaccio? Or, had it been
Britain, would he have shelled Cowes
and occupied the Isle of Wight? But
Greece has no army. That, I suppose,
alters the merits of the case Force Is
still the supreme arbiter of right and
wrong in international affairs in Eu-
rope.
1t is worth noting how the new code
of international law is coming into ex-
istence since the war. French armies
invade neighbors territory, occupy it.,
establish martial law, seize and run
the railways, regulate its press, de-
ports tens Of thousands of its inhabi-
tants, imprison or shoot down all who
resist, and then proclaim this is not
an act of war. 1t is only a peaceful
occupation to enforce rights under a
peace treaty. Signor Mussolni shells
towns belonging to a country with
whom he is at peace and forcibly &C.
cupies part of it's territory, and then
solemnly declares it is not an act of
war, but just a reasonable measure of
diplomatic precaution. Once force de
cides the issue 1t also settles rules.
Colonies Fought
There was a time when the English
and Spaniards fought each other
in the West Indies whilst their gov
ernments at home were ostensibly at
peace. And French and English
fought in India without any diplo-
mats rupture between Versailles ard
st. James's. But in those days these
lands were very remote and the con-
troll over the center of events at
these distances was intermittent and
occasionally feeble. And sometimes
It suited governments to ignore what
was taking place on the fringe of the
empire. But even in those days. an
attack on homeland meant war, and
IT, would mean war today were the
attacked countries not powerless.
What about the League Of Nations?
This is prominently a case for &C.
ton under the covenant. Italy and
Greece are both parties. How can
they, consistently with the terms of
the treaty they so recently signed,
refuse to leave this dispute to be
dealt with by the league? Italy had
! n special part in drafting the treaty
| and in imposing it upon Germany
| and Austria. She cannot now in
decency repudiate it's clauses. 1t is
! suggested in some quarters that the
dignity Of Italy being involved in the
dispute, she cannot possibly consent
| to leave It in the hands OF the league
That surely is a fatal limitation OF
| the League Of Nations.
Would Be Precedent
Every dispute involving right impli
Gates national honor and. as every ma
ton is judge of it's own honor. ulu
mately all differences would be ruled

already repudiated the first and most
important part of the treaty by de-
claring it will refer no question arts
ing between herself and her neighbors
under the treaty itself to the League
of Nations.
If Italy also declines to respect the
first part Of that treaty, then nothing
Is left of it except what 1t suits the
nations to enforce or obey. And if
the trainers do not owe allegiance to
the treaty they drafted, why should
those who only accented 1t under dur
ess, bow to it's behests? 1t would have
been more honorable course for the
nations to pursue if they had followed
the example of America by refusing
to ratify the whole treaty.
Rumors of Complications
There are ugly rumors Of possible
complications arising out of this I'M
fortunate incident. It does not need
a vivid imagination to foretell one or
two possible results of a disastrous
character. In this country they
would be deplored, not only for their
effect on European peace, but for the
damage they must inevitably inf1ict on
the best interests of Italy. She has
had enough Of victory. What she
needs now-what we all reed-is
peace. There is no country which has
a more genuine good will for Italy
prosperity and greatness than Great
Britain. 1t is an old and tried friend
ship. The two nations have many
common interests. they have no
rivalries. Hence the deep anxiety Of
Britain that Italy should not commit
mistake which will mortgage her
future, even If it does not imperil her
present.
There are, no doubt, strategic ad-
vantages for Italy in holding Corfu.
It enables them to bottle up" the
Adriatic. But it is Greek and It
menaces Slavonia. and this introduc-
ton Of foreign elements into the body
Of a State for strategic reasons always
provokes inflammatory symptoms In
furious to the general health Of the
community. They tend to become
malignant and, sooner or later. they
bring disaster Bosnia ultimately

and, between them, they laid the en-
pire of the Hapsburgs IL the dust.
Italy has played a great part in the
work Of civilization ana 80 mas Greece.
They have still greater tasks awaiting
them-one on a great and the other
necessarily on a smaller scale. It
would be a misfortune to humanity
if they spent their fine enthusiasm on
hating and thwarting each other.

tell those who do not. What then
accounts for their readiness, at the
slightest provocation, to rush into all
the same Indebtedness over again?

May End PeacabIy
This episode may end peacably. but
it was a risk to take and quite an un-
necessary risk under the circum-

it took place in a well-known murder
