The big question in Germany now-is, How can we keep from paying? wal e S One cannot blame the - Greeks very much when they balk at the idea of meet- Ing with the Turks.

With the pussy willows having already put forth as fearless as if it was late in March, there cannot be much more win- ter on the way. With 20,000,000 suffering from starva- tion the bolsheviki probably look te the ‘United States to come to the rellef of those in distress. t That North Carolifie woman who re- fused to leave priso nthough offered par- don five times certainly gives a great Técommendation for_that institution. ‘Those who stocked up on snow shovels in anticipation of a demand under- stand there are more winters coming, though the present one isn't over yet. they With milk dropping, a cent off the price of gasoline, gugar way down and other cutg in evidence who isn't going to be able to face life more optimistically?
