FRENCH LOAN
BY MORGAN
Unlimited Credit, Not Less Than
100 Millions, Lifts Franc 80
Points Over Low Mark.
EUROPEAN SITUATION BRIGHT
Money to Be Used to Stabilize French
Exchange and Other Necessary Pur-
poses-onIy New York and Near
by Banks Allowed to Subscribe.

New Establishment of q
banking credit of not less than $780,
600 900 in favor of the Bank of France
has been arranged by an American
banking group headed by J. P. Morgan
& Company, it was announced.
The loan is fully secured by gold
held in the vaults Of the Bank of
France, which is acting for the French
Government, and will be used to sta
Billie French exchange and for such
other purposes as the French Govern
ment may, determine.
While details of the loan were no.
made public, it is understood that it
will not run for more than one year.
In the event that the credit is not at
maturity liquidated in other ways,
gold in amount equal to the loan will
be shipped to the Morgan firm in New
York.
In view of the excellent security be-
hind the loan, it is believed that the
interest rate is relatively low and well
below that of some of the recent for
eign loans fioated here in the form of
bond issues.
In connection with this credit, the
Governor of the Bank of France has
issued a statement which sets forth
the following points: as
/. Complete measures are being
taken to better the financial situation.
2. The French Government is in
sisting that the Senate shall ratify
the new tax measure, which means
balancing the budget, and shall ap-
prove the policy of stopping new ex-
penditures.
8. Until the financial situation has
been greatly bettered. the Govern
ment will undertake no new borrow
ings whatsoever, except for funding
existing floating Indebtedness.
4. After such improvement in the
financial situation has been shown the
Government will make no new loan,
even for reconstruction in the iberat-
ed regions, without being assured
that the budget will cover the service
OF such new loan.
S. The Bank of France will con-
tinue to envisage and assist the sitEa-
ton.

He grew up with the Book of Common Prayer, which he carried with him all the time. When General Braddock died and Washington was asked to take the burial service, he took the Prayer Book from his coat and read it. In 1891 there was discovered in Philadelphia a book, called 'The Daily Sacrifices" It had come from an old trunk of Washington's from Mt. Vernon and it contained fourteen prayers, two for every day of the week in Washingtons hand writ ing
 Washington was a regular church attendant. He believed in identifying himself with those who are banded together for the purpose of promot- ing the religion of Jesus Christ. The church he most frequently attended was Pohick parish. He was yes tryman and a warden in the church Sometimes he attended the church at Alexandria which was sixteen miles up the river. While he was in New York during his presidency, he attended St. Paul's chapel. During the war he maintained his habit oi regular church attendance. He gave orders that in case certain important dispatches were received while he was at church, they should be brought to him there. Such was done He opened them and read them; ther his Prayer Book and gave his mint to the worship of God.
 It is not the fashion to go to church today. Many have lost this habit ou of their lives. It will do you no harm and it may do you some good to ge back into the habit again. At any rate it will help the town in whicf you live.

TELLS OF HUNT
IN TURKEY

Hazelton, N. D., May Local rela-
tives of Lester Briggle, who with
Mrs. Briggle is residing in Constan-
tinople, Turkey, have just received
letter in which is described wild
boar hunt that Mr.. Briggle and a
party of Americans INDUCED in a
short time ago. AS a result of the
hunt two wild boars were brought
in, and they also killed one deer and
two jackals. Mr.. Briggle sent some
of the bristles from the wild bears
along in the letter. They are black,
end are about five inches long and
resemble the bristles from our own
domestic pigs somewhat. He says
the meat Of the wild boar is deli
cious, sweeter than pork and the fat
is snow white.
The Briggles are having good
time in the Turkish capital and like
their work fine. Mrs. Briggle is cx-
pccting to travel some this summer,
perhaps to Paris or Norway.
They say Turkey is coming right
to the front under the new form of
COVE r'nment.
