July was anenjoyable affair. A large
crowd assembled for the program at
the tabernacle and the sports in
Bluff park. MILFORD Sagers( orator
OF the day, thrilled the audience
with an earnest and .eloquest mes
sage. Readings by Mrs. Maude

added after the publication of the

free agent. He was the instrument Of

alone had the right to make peace

What impressed me about Ismet
Pasha when l first saw him in Ango-
IA two years ago was his democratic
simplicity and his frank, cordial man
ner Despite his forty years, there is
something very boyish about him.. He
can be witty on occasion. He has the
officers conception of personal honor,
which is perhaps not an advantage in
the realm of diplomacy. While he
stuck stubbornly to his terms at the
conference, his tone was almost in
variably conciliatory.-From Blind

The Secret of lsmet Pasha's Sue.
ceases


The Turkish delegates came to
Lausanne, ignorant OF the methods
that diplomacy has developed in re-
cent years. They were also unac-
quainted with postwar Europe, for
they had lived in isolation in Asia
Minor since the Armstice. Their
chief delegate. Ismet Pasha. recently
made minister for foreign affairs, had
no training either as a diplomat or as
a politician. He had spent all his life
in the army. but he is nevertheless
not militaristic; he much prefers to
gain his end by peaceful means If
possible. His natural slowness in
speech was accentuated by his semi
deafness and by. the fact that he
could not express himself readily in
French, the only foreign language he
knew 1t would seem that he might
have been clay in the hands of men
like Lord Curzon and M. Chicherin.
Although, through his inexpericnce
and his ignorance Of the West, he
made many mistakes, he was by no
means a failure. The secret OF his sur
prising success was that he knew ex-
actly what he wanted. For him the
Nationals Pact, the sum and substance
of Turkeys peace terms, was written
in blood. He had given himself wholly
to the cause of Turkish nationalism.
In his three years at the front. which
advanced him from the rank of COL
onel in the artillery to chief of the
general staff. he had seen the sacri-
fees the Turkish people had made to
gain their independence. On such n
