DISCOURTESY TO DRUSES

An American correspondent who has study
ing the situation in Syria explains the uprising OF the
Druses and the disastrous which France has be-
involved due to so simple a thing as breach
of social courtesy.
He traces the revolt back to an incident occurring
at Damascus some time ago, when 25 Druse leaders
came to call on General Sarrail, French high commits
soner The first time they called, the general could
not see them The second time, subordinate French
officer told them that if they did not go away they
would be thrown into prison.
To those proud, sensitive Druses it was bitter
blow. They came courteously with gifts, as is the
eastern way. They were ordered away with insults,
and without hearing.
few cups of coffee and few cigarets says the
correspondent preserving the social amenities the
Syrans practice them might have saved the situation
For lack of few francs worth of coffee and cgarets
along with few decent words, France was drawn into
new colonial war costing her hundreds of millions of
francs and sad loss of prestige with end in sight
And as a result of the tactless conduct of the
French administration under General Sarrail the Syr
ians are now asking that the League of Nations give
Frances Syrian mandate to Great Britan-which is
more careful in such matters.
Courtesy above all else to other nations That IS
the first principle of diplomacy 1t is the first prn-
cple of international relations of any kind just as it
it the first principle of individual relations.

No Injuries
In Madison Game

Hallowell High came through the
Madison game without injury to a
man. Time was not called once for
one OF them. The team is surely in
good physical condition and has
wonderful possibilities. but to play
its best needs good support from the
citizens. as well as from the school.
Financial support is also necessary
and those who are anxious to see
football retained as a high school
sport should make 1t a point to be
generous both in financial and moral
support. The Gardiner game this
coming Saturday should call out a
record crowd. Show the boys you
are behind them.
