The premier's plans have not yet been divulged, but one thing appears certain. "France must consent to renewed financial sacrifices." M. Poincare made no secret of his opposition to foreign credits, if they can be avoided, and admitted that the situation of the treasury as drawn by M. De Monzie, the finance minister.

"The new management just did not 'get the psychology of the established customers of the store. I tried to soothe my friend by making her laugh, reminding her of that story they used to tell of Colonel Smith, one of our most distinguished citizens. representative of our pioneer leaders and a gentleman of the old school, who had. by the way, a very emphatic manner of iointing his remarks.

A group of women succeeded the philosopher of the married state on the summer hotel veranda, mid so it was reasoning from an entirely different slant which next diverted by morning. The ladies were talking aliout a baby-doll member of the summer colony, who, needless to say, was not present, their comment centering on her tyranny over her great big he-man-appearing husband whom she did not allow to enter into any of the early morning golf games with the other men, because his early rising would disturb her morning beauty sleep.

Mr. Morton reviewed the film at the request of the Lakewood management, before it was announced as a special offering for the Sunday school picknickers. He approved the picture as a whole, but found fault with certain scenes, particularly in that part of the story whiih deals with modern life.

The British army seems to be going dry voluntarily, according to official figures which show that the consumption of beer at army canteens has decreased 75 per cent since the war, while the consumption of food has increased correspondingly.

"The army is eating more and drinking less or, when it drinks, is going in for tea and coffee," sa'd Colonel Cecil Fraser, one of the chief executives of the canteea servics.
