Here’s something that you may think strange for a furniture store to suggest, and it’s possible—zery possible— that no other furniture store would suggest it. ’ 1t is just this—we’d advise you to get a single piece or several good pieces and add to them later rather than buy a whole suite now that may not be so good. ‘A single piece or so of good Lifetime Furniture will be so beautiful in design, with such fine woods, so well made, that it will be well worth waiting to get the pieces to match. It is a matter of simple addition then or you to add a piece or so to match, for Life- time Furniture is “open-stock” furniture.

ALTERNATIVE OF METRIC SYSTEM IMPOSSIBLE, AUTHORITY SAYS To the Editor of The Star: I have just read the letter from Mr. Run'ell in regard to metric woights and measures which appeared ih The Washington Star on May 28. The new alternative to the metric system, which Mr. Rucsell suggests, would be interesting if it were possible. e obviously has high ideals and would like to see a simple system of weights and measures the units of which are conveniently related to each other. He apparently does not yet ses that all this is provided in the metric system. Mr. Russell has been misinformed in regard to the following pointa: (1) Mr. W. L. Peters, secretary of the Columbla section of the American Metric Association, has never roceived ccmpensation in any shape or form for the interest he has taken and the work he has done In behalf of the metric movement. This is also true of other members of this and other sections of our assoclation. One of the pleasures of working in the metric | ¢ movement fs that practically all_the work {s done by volunteers. With the exception of the work in the New York and Washington offices of our association, all the work ne by volunteers. The work in these Lw offices is supported by national asso- ciations, firgs and individuals. Our LEAGUE OFFICIAL SEESUL.S. HELPING Financial Director Declares Attitude More Friendly in Ottawa Speech. Special Dispatch to The Star. OTTAWA, Ontario, June 15.—*“1 think I can see Indications that the United States is showing more friend- ly attitude than two or three years ago.” remarked Sir Herbert Ames, financial director of the league of na- tions in giving Ottawan's an account of the league's work. He said the league's greatest handicap was that it was not universal, for while fifty nations belonged to it, ten did not, and the latter included the United States, Germany and Russia. Relative to his reference to the United States, he did not mean that that country was going to ask for ad- e, but as different ne up and the United s had been asked to co-operate in their solution, the United States had hegun to help and he thought the day would come when they would be willing to help in the solution of all the problems. Members of the dominion senate expressed regret that the ted States had not yet joined the league of nations. “Although I voted for Canada's par- ticipation in the work of the league of nations,” sald Senator David, I had some misgivings, as I thought it might lead to dangerous complications in our relations between England and the United States, but these misgivings have been removed.” nator Dandurand declared _the United States had seemed destined to lead the nat in the way of peace, and he believed the conscience of the United States would yet bring it in line with the work of the league. Senator Belcourt, while he regretted that the United States had not entered the league, did not believe the partici- f that country was an absolute y to the success of the league. 0 believed it would be impossible for the United States to preserve its isolation and elude 1ts responsibllity for any great period. nator Casgrain charactered the of nations as “a beautiful and said ‘‘he did not believe in coaxing the United States to come into the league.” FREED IN MURDER CASE.

(4) At the invitation of the Toronto sectlon of our association I recently attended a meeting there, and went on to study the situation in Ottawa. 1In Ottawa I took the opportunity of inspecting the fundamental standards Canada; and, an I had previously seen in London, England, the govern- ment was using and depending on the prototype metric standards based on the International standards held by the Intexnational bureau of weights and measures. Mr. Russell is in error to regard metric weights und mens- ures in any other way than as an in- ternational system, which is support- | after SmoRing_- LIFE SAVERs E CANDY MINT WITH THE HOLE relieve that numb feeling in -your mouth and chase that tobacco taste away.

In fact, it adds life to the varnish, keeping it clastic and preventing cracking and blistering. Constant use of MOBO will save at least one repainting during the car’s life. Use it on mohair, leather and pantosote tops.
