But the question is one which will never be settled by argument. It is too soon to decide whether the blame must rest on Germany’s shoulders. That will be a question to be de- cided possibly 50 or 75 years from now, when historians have had an opportunity. through ; their distance from the whole thing, to make fair and just decisions, It is better for France and Germany to for- * get the past and devote themselves to the up- building of their countries and the creation of friendly relations between them. Arguing culation |about who was to blame for the war will not help advance France or Germany. Fostering of sensible trade relations and aggressive cam- ty paigns for foreign trade are the things of im- mediate concern, Making the World Safe For Gasoline Day before yesterday we had our age of coal.

By this choice the North American continent is for the first time represented. Latin-American representation is continued What Pri SAIN 224 SINNER Boulevard, hut I hate to sacrifice it, and there’s not much doing right now in real estate—” “Don’t, sell it,” she begged. “We'll manage somehow. “Are we broke, dear?” Faith asked with brave matter-of-factness when she and her husband were seated at Bob’s desk in the sun par- lor, which he called his “home of- unchanged, Cuba replacing Salvador. The small nations generally, the new succession states specifically, have undiminished represen- tation on the council. The failure to continue Belgium as one of the nonpermanent council members was due to the feeling that Belgium, though asmall pation, sat as practically a proxy for France. That this result follows and confirms some- e mud, |thing like the revolt of a small-nations bloc in the assembly is a fact that can be viewed with} Ai satisfaction. In spite of chauvinism in a few cases, the small nations generally look to the league as their protection against aggression and are whole-heartedly committed to the cause and processes of peace. No dreams of terri- torial aggrandizement can disturb the pacific aspirations of Denmark, of Finland, of Swe den, of Canada. The league as an agent, peace as a policy, can have no more sincere sup- porters than the small nations, Meeting in an atmosphere of disillusionment and depression, this session of the league as- sembly testifies once more to the invincible power of an ideal. Stresemann gave the meet- ing its keynote in pledging Germany to arbi- tration. Briand continued the good work by the eloquence of his reply and comment. small nations have given the meeting a serious value. The very constitution of the council, vith Germany a member, is better fitted for its work than it was in the beginning.

Comfort Dividends of Good Roads (Minneapolis Tribune) The editor of the Sleepy Eye (Minn.)

Owners of automobiles are generous, to them- selves in seeing that there are snubbers, or stabilizers, or balancers, or spacious springs, or all four, on their cars as servitors to their ease these things enter into the original cost or sub- sequent equipment cost of motor cars, as they t |should. The price paid for any one of them so set apart by bar-lig more than the difference in yearly cost of operating the average car would be if the tax on gasoline were raised from 2 cents to 8 cents; and it is more than the additional amount the average citizen would pay in taxes if there were a bond issue of $20,000,000 for road improve- ment, and if the issue were taken care of It wouldn’t be tak- en care of that way.” The financing would be done out of the state trunk highway fund ob- tained from the gasoline levy and from license charges. _The up-to-date contrivances used on automo- biles to make more comfortable riding are and fine, but they have their marked limita- tions when it comes to ease the going on rough roads. A first rate paved road is snubber, stabilizer, balancer, and spacious spring all in one, and this all-in-one does the work 12 months of the year, which is all that anybody can ask. A first rate paved road is worth, however, a lot more than what it yields in com- fortable riding. The additional worth is meas- urable in the lessening of vehicular wear an: tear, and in savings of time, gasoline and tire mileage. To revert to the original theme about com- fort, we can get more of it for less through the medium of paved any other way, and It is more or less na‘ but crabbing is not to be excused e basis of common sense, and times, but the import of which she| "Uma" welfare—Tolstol. grasped fairly wel compartments. ha’ “What it means, dear, is that we Hy | pay hae to live largely on credit, } Justajingle wy _—_—_—<—<_$<$— nn cl He found the outdoors blazing: hot. _ it my share of Une ae iy ae wae thing ad sf out summed up. coul catch his breath, think I can sell that lot of mine two sneaked into an ice house, blocks from this place on Serenity|That’s where he froze to ee OUR BOARDING HOUSE. ice Coal!
