BOSTON. Mass.

BOSTON, Mass.
Should the great Christian confer
ence on life and work that met AT
Stockholm, Sweden. last Summer he
invited to Boston, Mass, for the sum
rner of 1890, when this city celebrates
its 300th anniversary?
Nothing could be more appropriate
or in keeping with the best traditions
Of our Puritan ancestors.
Such n gathering would also demon
strate the advance Christian ciViiiza-
ton has made upon the days when
Quakers. Baptists. Catholics and lib
eral thinkers were prosecuted Tor
their beliefs.
The time has come when American
Christians should invite the Chris
tians of the entire world, whoever
and wherever they are, to meet win
us here in brotherly fellowship and
discuss the weighty problems OF the
kingdom of God upon earth.
What was begun in Stockholm
might well reach It's climax in Bos-
ton, with representatives of universal
Christianity announcing to the world
the end Of sectional, racial ana
creedal hatreds, and the beginning OF
that peace on earth" Of which the
angels sang on the first Christmas
morn.
| hope Boston will see it's way clear
to issue this invitation.

IF Britains form Of government Is
a decidedly democratic one and the
King is nothing more or less than
a figurehead. why are he and his
family retained and supported by the
people? For are they not, as far as
the carrying on Of government affairs
is concerned. non.cssential and as
result parasitic?
On the contrary, there are few
more useful and dignified institutions
than the British monarchy.
1t has two important functions:
First, to fulfill the ceremonial aspect
of government; secondly. to act as the
personal nexus or bond Of a vast
empire.
The ceremonial aspect of govern
ment is no less essential and demo-
cratic than in monarchial states
Even though our President does not
wear a crown, he must be received
privately and publicly with the hon
ors due to his exalted station as the
representative of the Nation.
George V is surrounded by more
romp and circumstance than our
Chief Executive. but for exactly the
same reasons. Taught by centuries
Of experience. the British nation
| largely reserves her titular ruler for
ceremonial purposes, thus leaving the
premier and his cabinet free for
political tasks.
The reigning monarch Of the Brit
ish Empire is not. however, without
significance in political affairs, nor
is the extent of his social influence
to be measured by his meager rem
nant of legal authority so much as
by his personal qualities and per-
suasive gifts.
One can hardly imagine the COM
monwealths of Australia. South Africa
and Canada being enthusiastic over
liberal or conservative administra-
tions in Great Britain. They have

Colors, Tapes and Initials
BY LYDIA LIE BARON WALKER.

| il is absolutely separate from those
of the rest of the family. a way that
is pretty as well as practical Wheh
the family is of average size Is Tor
the various members of the household
to have towels with different colored
borders. For instance, the blue-bor-
dered ones may be recognized as
"Alice's," the yellow ones as 'John S.
whereas mother may have lavender
hordered towels and father pam
white. Other shades that tone well
are rose ard ecru.
Distinguishing Borders.
The border may he upon the towel
when it was purchased, or ii may
have been added by the simple and
swift means of a crochet hook. 80
ii is that while all towels, if initiated,
may bear the same letter, there is
no likelihood of their being confused
When Wash Is Sent Out.
When articles are sent away from
home to be laundered. it is well to
take your own precautions against
their possible loss, and not rely entire
ty upon those made by others.
Embroidered initials, then, have
their useful as well as their artistic
and personal qualities. When no en-
hroidered initials appear, the name
of the owner should be put on the
article in indelible ink.
Further Precautions.
One very careful housekeeper seWs
small pieces of tape to her choice afu.
clos when they go to the commercial
laundry. requesting that any identiil,
cation marks be put on the tape and
l,n n3S q no
a moment to rip off the tape, roughly
sewed as it is. when the pieces are
returned and Il matter of not more
than a few moments to tack them on
again when time comes for their next
washing.
Stockings.
Another way in which tape is use
full in this respect is to keep stockings
"paired" during the time of their
being washed Sew small strips of
tape to the tops of the stockings, TAX
ing care that the tape comes as near
to matching as can reasonably be eN-
pected. When the stockings go TO the
wash, tie together those OF each PAR,
and save yourself the trouble of look
ing for mates later. a very efficient
and desirable way of doing this, and
one which requires that the tape be
attached TO stockings only at the
time they are washed. is to nave snap
perS Of the same size SeWed to the
tops Of al Of ones stockings. and a
great many little tapes which contain
the other half of the snappers. At
time of washing, take n pair OF these
tapes, which may be kept in a little
box in a bureau drawer, and snap to
stocking tops. removing as required
after palring and washing.

Loess.

one Of the strangcst geological de-
rosits in the world is the substance
known as loesS, and strangely. 100, it
is pronounced like less" il is found
chiefly in eastern Asia. and seems to
consist of dust blown from the deserts
of Thibet and Cobb and piled up in
great dunes in China. II is of Curl
GUS yellow color, and when wet can
be packed into a substance somewhat
like adobe, SO that parts Of China are
indeed the yellow land, for not only
are the men yellow, but the houses
and the very dust Of the streets are
yellow.
I.oess makes 4 very fertile soil. ANA
the Chinese fields in some places are
yellow. too, where the IoeGs dunes
have been terraccd for aCriculture,
Strangest OF an is the fact that
though loess is soft and dust
like it will stand perpendicular
" by itself, unlike a sand dune.
Thus il a straight cut is made through
a loess dune the sheer walls will not
landslide like sand or even ordinary
earth, hut will remain in whatever
shape they are carved.

(Which one is it?" cried Peter. once
more filled with the liveliest curiosity.
But Busy Bee had drained that
clover head of its sweets and went
buzzing off without answering Peters
question. "Oh. dear"' muttered Peter.
"Oh, dear! Now 1 suppose I'll have
to run around listening to all the but
terfids in order to find the one that
squeakS. Here I've been chasing
them to find out if they're perfumed,
and / might have been listening to
them at the same time"
So once more Peter began running
about in the Green Meadows, chasing
butterflies. Having learned how to
approach them so as not to scare
them when he was trying to find out
if they were perfumed, he now made
easier work of it. Whenever he saw
a butterfly resting on a flower he
would softly steal as near as possi-
BILE and then listen with all his might,
But all his listening was in vain.
They didn't hum; they didn't squeak.
They didn't make q sound Of any
kind. so finally Peter came to the
conclusion that Busy Bee was mis-
taken, or else had just been trying to
stuff him." as the saying is. SO then
he went hunting for Busy Bee. A.
the same time he asked everybody he
met If they knew of a butterfly that
squeaked, and everybody laughed at
him. 1t got to be joke with every
body on the Green Meadows and in
the Old Orchard. Whenever Peter
met an acquaintance, that acquaint-
ance would be almost sure to say,
"How are the squeaky butterflies to-
day, Peter?" And all Peter could do
was to make up a face and say, "If

LEAGUE OF NATIONS
President Bares Scheme OF
Big Biz to Control Worlds
Credit

By International Labor News Service.
Montreal.-A grandiose plan Of the
big international bankers to form
compact financial trust to control
world credit was indicated by Senator
Dandurand, Montreal, president Of the
assembly of the League of Nations,
in recent address.
The important facts brought out by
the league president were that extra
ordinary progress has already been
made in centralizing financial power,
that the political effects in Europe
were already very marked, and that
the ultimate ideal Of those engaged in
establishing financial overlordship of
the world is world free trade.
The project of a super-banking sys-
tenn to govern the financial policies
of the world originated in Germany
before the war. 1t is now supported
by the Bank of England, the finance
minister of France, the Banque Ma
tionale of Belgium, the German
Reichsbank, and leading American
bankers.
The more immediate objects are the
creation of an international gold re-
serve; effective aid to enable all indus
trial nations to resume the gold stand
ard; gradual hardening of credit
with stabilization and equalization of
world prices; rigid government econ
omy and transfer of government en-
terprises to private control; and the
development of backward countries
through the provision of credits to
encourage exploitation of their ma
tural resources. This to be accom-
panied by drive for world free
trade
