Hold Hope Early
Settlement Irish
Boundary Question

London, Sept. 2S.-(By A. y
AS time approaches for parliament
to reassemble to deal with the Irish
boundary dispute. powerful influ-
ences appear to be at work in both
northern and southern Ireland and
in England to bring about settle
ment by mutual consent of the two
Irish communities. Detached OBJ
servers. relying upon the conviction
that no question is finally settled un-
til it Is settled right, are express
ing the hope. IL not the expectation.
that Irishmen will be able to gathcr
in round table conference and set
tie this long standing dispute with
out outside interference.
The Free State Treaty provided
for boundary commission to settle
the question Of the frontier to the
north, among other things, 'in ac-
cordance with the wishes of the in
habitants" Two of the necessary
commissioners have been named but
northern Ireland. by refusing to
name the third. has held up all the
functions OF the commissioners.
1t Is now nearly three years since
the signing Of the free state treaty
removed Irish affairs from the realm
OF British politics. While there are
die hard elements and extremists in
the free state, northern Ireland and
in England, the people of moderate
views-by far in the majority In all
three communitics--wou seem to
be heartily opposed to having irish
affairs thrust back into British poll
tics.
Expressed In few words the
trouble seems to hinge on the fac,
that President Cosgravc OF the Free
State and Sir James Craig. premier
of Ulster, are unable to meet each
other on moderate grounds because
of tho extreme views of the die hards
within their respective sections.
Premier Macdonald and his two
nredecessors In the premiership
want a settlement by consent. ana
Lord Dunraven. now a Free state
sympathizer. John Il. Clines. LORD
Privy Seal have all voiced me view
that satisfactory and lasting So
luton must be looked for in set
tiament by agreement.

U. S. Supply Ship
Off to Assist in
Flight of ZR-3

Boston. SeIt. 2S.-The L. :. sup
ply ship Patoka. Commander G. j.
MEYERS. sailed tonight from the Bos-
ton navy yard to take up position
about 300 miles south of Cape Fare
well, Greenland. from where she will
aid in the trans Atlatic flight early
next month of the dirigible ZR-3.
The Patoka had been ready with fuel
and supplies awaiting sailing orders.
She will keep the airship informed
of weather conditions. The fact that
the Patoka has sailed for this north
crn position is said by navy officials
to bc no indication that that route
will be taken by the dirigible. The
Patoka is equipped with a mooring
mast to which the Shenandoah tied
up successfully in. recent tests at
Newport. r. |. She will. therefore,
be available aga mid-ocean emer-
gency stop should the giant airship
have difficulty.
The East Boston airport has been
notified to hold itself in readiness
for an emergency landing of the
YRS, which would require the as
sistance of 200 men.

"MANHANDLED"
Eltinge

Can a good girl allow herself to be
flirted with by men and still pre-
serve her spotless reputation? Isn't
a girls reputation like any Other
piece of precious, perishable goods
if it's manhandled too much, it loses
its value and has to be marked down
to bargain prices? Does good man
want to marry a girl, however pure
she may be, if she's been fondled
about by other men?
Here is the story Of girl who
starts life in a New York department
store-a regular girl, the kind that
everyone likes-with human dreams
and human longings. Money-beauti-
full clothes, good times have the same
appeal to her that they have to the
average girl who has never had
them. Why cannot she have them as
everyone else? She has youth, beau
ty-is clever and attractive, and ma
turally there are men who are will
ing enough to help her to lead the
kind of life she thinks she wants.
She is caught up in a wild whirl
of gaiety--at a breakneck pursuit
of pleasure in the gayest set in the
metropolis, but she does not realize
how her free and easy contact with
so many men is furnishing her wo'
manhood.
Spending her early life behind thu
bargain counter of department
store, she learns the lesson that .
