LLOYD George
SECURES REST
AT LOUISVILLE
Public Functions Are
Turned Down, Quiet
Visit Enjoyed.
BY LAWRENCE MARTIN


Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
WITH LLOYD GEORGE. LOUIS
VILE. KY. Oct. 2o-CUnited Press
Lloyd George today added to his
list of American experiences when
he saw the inside OF an American
home and got his first look at Ken
lucky blue grass.
To an inquiry as to whether he
had also made the acquaintance OF
the once famous product known as
Bourbon. Lloyd George replied only
with a twinkling eye and an admon-
itory shake of the finger.
Louisville is the only city thus far
visited which will have no chance
to glimpse the British statesman at
a public function. He Just cut his
whole program here. except for a
motor ride about the city, and spent
the day resting in the home of
Judge Robert w. Bingham, on the
heights overlooking the Ohio river
and Indiana farm lands beyond.
How are you feellng?" some one
asked him.
Like golf" he replied. According
ly. after ho mad slept and lunched.
he went golfing. He paused long
enough before that however. to sean.
as he Toe daily, the news from Eu-
rope.
Word of Bavaria's refusal to ac-
knowledge Berlin rule is omnibus he
said.
But I tool occasion a a ago
70 predict that" he replied. Then
he jumped ahead to what he fears
will follow the smash which, he
declared. appears now definitely to
have ACQUIRED in Germany.
'Trotzky," he said, "Trotzky is
getting his red army ready. You
remember that Germany fell back
on Russia once before In 1919. Ger
many now is in a position to have
folNd democracy a failure; I mean.
her citizens. who were told that de-
mocracy would save them when kali
seriam failed, have been sadly dis
iIlusioned. Anarchy and chaos seem
near. There is Russia, which has
thrown off all the great d~emocracies
1t has brushed us all aside. Rus
Russia''-he shook his head.
What he foresees is some sort of
a union with communist Germany
with communist Russia.
II may now be too late to try
applying the Hughes plan OF settling
the Preparations problem. he fears.
But It is sim worth the effort.
though Germany actually splits up.
he thinks.
Tomorrow Lloyd George will mo.
tor TO Hodginsville, Ky. TO see the
log cabin where Abraham Lincoln
was born. That is the only en-
gagement OF the day. He expects
to return to Louisville in the late
afternoon
He was pleased at the change from
n hotel to a private home-his first
stay in an American home. That
is how he would have liked to spend
all his time In Amerlca-in private
homes instead OF hotels.

favored with vista from national

favored with these particular ones

Different problems of social
character were discussed. The fact
was pointed out that the Y. w. C.
A had been forced to handle cases
of a social nature due to the fact
that there is no organization in
Casper with authority or means to
handle them. It was suggested the
need of a policewoman in Casper
as well as a United Charities organi'

Mister Gallop turned his pony in its

trailing after him like a tail.
They climbed. the narrow road up

Wobbly was whimpering weakly,

Mister Gallop shook his head
soberly. "Tm afraid I can't get at

"Oh, look" cried Nancy suddenly.
There was a great rush Of wings

Then very softly he dropped him

Successful Season Fish and Game
Association

The Gardiner Fish and Game As
ISOLATION are finishing up their work
for the present and all feel that it
has been a successful one. While
the results of their work has not
shown in the taking of fish, start
has been made that will count in a
short time. They have made two
paintings of lingering trout in the
brooks that run into Cobbossee
stream and it's tributaries and they
are in hopes to have another lot as
signed to them this fall either from
the Monmouth or Belgrade hatcher
les. There are several local men
who are interested in the work be-
ing done that have been appointed
wardens for this vicinity and they
have been looking after the brooks.
They report that the fish have done
well and that the recent dry spell
has had no i'll effects on them as
these brooks have had plenty Of wa
ter in them. The financial condition
of the Association is good and but
small amount more will be needed to
bring the balance on the right side.

Especial to Kennebec JournaD
Pittston. Me-. Nov. 3-Smart and
alert for her years, great reader
and skilled in needlecraft, Mrs.
Sarah B. Greeley. the oldest woman
In this town, will observe her Gath
birthday Sunday at her home at
Coburn's Corner.
Mrs. Greeley is about always bus
lily engaged in sewing, knitting or
reading: she is never so happy as
when she is busy and she delights
to talk about events in bygone days,
had happened within the past year.
She Is in fairly good health and
takes a great interest in affairs Of
the day. Her sight is remarkably
good for her years.
She was born Nov. 4, 1929, the
daughter of Jacob and Hannah Grant
of Whitefield. Her husband passed
away nearly 80 years ago. She has
two daughters living, Mrs. Martha
Emerson, with whom she makes her
home, and Mrs. Emma Allen of Ran
dolph.
When Mrs. Greeley was a young
girl her father built a log house near
Joyce pond in Pittston, and for a
number of years the family resided
there. Stories regarding the early
days of the settlement and of the first
steamboat ventures on the Kennebec
river, Mrs. Greeley relates in an in
teresting manner to her close
friends; she also tells of incidents of
the War of 1912, which she has
heard her father and grandfather
tell many times. She possesses a re-
markable memory and her narrative
would comprise a most interesting
history of events of note in this Sec
ton ofs the State.
