try to be as mild an kind as people
says I should.
Some day I'll flnd great happiness in
simply bein' good.
The answer soft is what \ truly proper
person makes,
But there isn't any limit to the practice
that 1t takes.
And yet the answer soft so very oft will
merely prove
An invitation to some crouch to make
another move.
You're liable to find your efforts wasted
when you're through.
For what's the use O. likin folks that
don't
like
Jes' what the satisfaction is, I've often
sought to learn,
In passin' out bouquets and gettin' lem
ons in return!
This life is none too long to pay the
debts Of kindliness
To loyal friends close by your side in
sunshine or distress.
The most that we can give Of warm af-
fection, frank and plain,
Is none too much for those who give it
freely back again.
And helps to keep this ploddin' world
from seemin' blank and blue
So what's the use Of Ikin' folks that
don't
like
you?

Mosaic Pavement
Found at st. Adams.
The Observer, London-The seasons
work on the site of the Roman excava-
tions at Verulamium (St. Albans) has
ended with an important chance dis
covery-"the best mosaic pavement at
present known there" as DR.. Mortimer
Wheeler. who, with his wife, is in
charge of the excavations, described it
recently in an interview.
1T has he said, "a very vigorous
representation Of a Celtic, probably a
Gallo deity. bearded and with a pair
Of antlers projecting from his head.
The deity is probably the Celtic god
Cernunnus, who is represented in this
manner in Romano-Gallic sculpture.
The mosaic is bold and vigorous
piece of work. and suggests the tech
nique, perhaps. of provincial rather
than a Roman craftsman. The border
which incloses the head includes rep
reservations OF drinking cups and other
conventional motifs"
1t is proposed to take up this newly
found pavement for preservation. 1t is
the fourth mosaic that has been found
during the excavations, which began at
the end Of July. The work will be re-
sumed next year.

400 years ago. In these latter days

Slip Of Foot
Adds to Municipal Fund.

Diario de Panama, Panama. Through
the inadvertency of placing his foot
upon the accelerator without intending
to and in consequence of attaining a
velocity of 40 miles an hour, EStorgio
Tajada de Sandia incurred a fine of Is
balbaoS SIS at par in United States
money in Traffic Court recently. At
least this is the way Senor Tajada ex-
plains the circumstances. Such q pen
atty" he complains, for only using my
foot"
Senor Tajada's feet are not large. and
OF course he cannot be thinking about
them all the time. At this season of
the year he Is naturally thinking more
of la Natividad," and what remem-
brances Sonora Tajada and the children
will desire the most. Probably while
trying to reconcile even their most mod
flatness of the family pocketbook, Senor
Tajada became little distraught, and
if he forgot for the moment that the
accelerator pedal was not part Of an
adding machine, was he really very
much to blame? In such tense pre-
occupations one is very likely to give
a super1uous jolt or two to the accel-
orator, hoping thereby somehow to en-
hance the sum total Of the holiday
funds. However, and as usual. this
ritual had quite the very opposite re-
suit, as we have seen. 1t is comforting
to know, in such cases that the accel-
orator Is always to blame. And at any
rate, though innocent of any wrong in
tent, Senor Tajada, while he called
attention to all these considerations
in his favor, does not regret that he
has been called upon to assist the
municipal exchequer in these days of
depleted resources.

WAR DEBT STUDY
URGED BY STRAWN
Letter to American Business
Men Asks Consideration
of ReadjustmentS.

Silas H. Strawn. chairman Of the
American Committee of the Interna-
tional Chamber of Commerce, yesterday
urged business men in this country to
give serious consideration to the pos
sibility of readjustment of intergov-
ernmental debts AS a result of the
Lausanne agreement.
In a letter to the membership OF the
Chamber of Commerce Of the United
states, Mr.. Strawn said:
Lausanne is Significant not only for
our manufacturers. 1t has a vital i'm
portance to every phase Of our great
productive and distributive machinery.
Bonds Replace Reparations.
The Lausanne agreement wiped out
the German war reparationS and sub
stltuted promise by that country to
issue $7l4,000,000 in bonds through the
Bank for International Settlements for
the benefit of Germany's creditors.
Discussing the Lausanne action, Mr.
Strawn added
The effect of the action taken at
Lausanne will possibly be somewhat de-
ferred until the agreement there
reached is ratified by the legislative
bodies of the powers concerned. We
are advised that the creditor nations
propose to delay such ratification until
satisfactory settlement may in turn
be reached with their own creditors
with regard to intergovernmental debts,
and that separate agreements-some-
what cryptic in character-among Ger
tain of those power have been arrived
at providing for some further measure
Of cooperation on this and other mat
tiers.
u. s. Has Contributed.
1.-THE principal creditor on this ac-
count is the United States. Certainly,
we need not be surprised to learn that
our European debtors expect to ask OF
the United States. in the light OF exist.
ing conditions. some Reconsideration OF
the debt settlements made by them
with this country.
The United States has at other
times since TIE war made substantial
contribution toward the solution OF
these and other international financial
problems. when world interests and
our own seemed to require 1t.
If intergovernmental debt payments
are a factor in prolonging the crisis
then in our own interest and in the
interest of world recovery, believe
we have an obligation to give the ques-
ton careful study"
