Dear NJ. B. Friends:

Dear NJ B. Friends:
We are favored this week with
another original poem, which cannot
fail to be helpful. 1t reminds one
of 81 will lift up my eyes unto the
hills, from whence cometh my help;
and at the same time, the autumnal
touch in the lines, brings a vision OF
the glories of the season, as seen in
the ripened harvests, the foliage OF
the trees, and the aftermath and
fruition of summers sunny hours.
I have the privilege of using the
following extract from recent ad-
dress given by DR.. H. F. Fowler of
Brown university. Abiding to the
early days he says:
"Those were days when the dignity
of the ministry was recognized. WASH
ington was President of the nation, and
the tunes were tunes of dignity in
Church and State alike. If as the
dictionary says, dignity means worth,
nobility, it were well for us to-day, to
guard zealously the dignity of our
chosen leaders in both State and
Church. The State that treats it's
elected head as everybody's hired man,
and his reputation as everybodys
football, is in a perilous condition. In
the Church, toe, when the true dignity
of the ministry is forgotten, the con-
dition is dangerous one, for the
Church"

LONDON, November o0.--Important
correspondence issued by the for
eign office, embodying the substance
OF recent conversations of the am
bassadors' conference with Germany,
shows that it has not only been
decided to complete the eyacua-
tion of Cologne, or the first zone, by
February 20, but to proceed shortly
10 reduce the occupying forces in
the second and third zones to con-
form with the pre-war strength of
tne German sarrisonS; to vacate the
land and buildings and abolish many
war ordinances and restore the juris-
dlctlon OF the German courts, except
III cases OF pronounced military
nature.
Reciprocity Asked.
The documents emphasize that the
allies, III thus showing confidence in
The good will of the German govern
nent and people, are anticipating re-
cIprocations of such confidence and
good will.
The principal documents are two
notes signed by NJ. BRAND, French
foreign minister. in behalf of the
conference, dated November< IA and
that the conclusion of the Locarno
agreements testif1es to the desire
anlmatlng the governments who
We're parties to the agreements TO
introduce into their relations a spirit
or good will and confidence
confident that the German govern
ment will reciprocate these sentiments,
the note announces the decision to
introduce into the occupation all
a!levIations compatible with the treaty
of Versailles
The note, recalling the concessions :
already announced. intimates that the
lthineland commission is prepared to
grant large measures of amnesty on
satisfactory assurances being given
by Germany with regard TO the posi-
non individuals having relations with
the occupying armies.
Other Reforms Listed.
The Rhineland commission. further
more, has a far-reaching plan Of re-
forms under consideration. having a
two-fold purpose-first, u consider
able reduction Of the number of oc-
eupyfng troops, and. second. the tax
ing OF all measures within the frame
work of the Rhineland agreement to
facilitate the free exercise of German
administration in the occupied terri
tories
The note indicates the advantages of
the fore2ung TO the German popu-
latton ana its relations with the oc-
cupying for, is. that the reduction in
troops to ii-ures approaching normal
will enable the return of lands and
public buildings heretofore used for
pilleting troops and the suppression
of the system OF delegates entrusted
with liaison duties between the oc-
cupytng troops and the German
authorities.
