Harvey; and Colby Join in
Love Feast at Club Dinner
Ambassador to Britain and
Former Secretary of State
. Lay AfUle Difference! at
London Function.
London, Pu Ambassador,
Oorge Jliryty biiJ Cambridge
Colby, secretary of stale' under
President Wiloo, put wide thcif po
litical differences and faced each
other over the .lovinjr cup and
twitted one another good-liuinorcdJy
at the dinner IM night of the
Knights of the Round Table club.
J'ornicr Senator J. Hamilton Lewis
also participated in' the exchange of
witty shafts with the iiba:ador. ,
With ionic show of feeling, Mr.
Colby replied to the ambassador's
J'ilgrim dinner allusion to the "loo
proud to fight" slogan, saying that
the army lent to i'rance constituted
the best testimony of the inaccuracy '
of that "much played upon, distorted
and misunderstood aphorism." lie
said be belonged to that section oi
opinion in America which would have
epproached the problems before the
Washington conference "with a little
more dash and spirit and less
hesitancy," and added "I believe that
the league of nations still lives." Ik
endorsed, however, the Washington
accomplishments, as steps in the
right direction.
Tribute to Harvey.
Mr. Colby concluded with a com
pliment to the ambassador, declai'
"g:
"There is no better American than
Harvey; his progress has been sure
and sustained his steps need no re
tracing." Sir Ernest Wild-said: "Jf Ameri
ca, would only be content not to be
dictatorial, shfc'can dictate the future
of the world."
Mr. Harvey assured bis auditors
that he had, not come to the ban
quet to dilate.. The English," he
said, frequently expressed apprecia
tion for what America did for them
in the war. "We have a double rea
son to thank England for what she-
did for us before we came in."
Then began thrusts at the demo
crats, the ambassador surmising
that had Mr. Colby continued in bis
high office, "I doubt if I would have
been here tonight."
Says Lewis Lucky.
With a smile at Mr. Lewis he add
ed: . "And had my name been ' pro
posed forborne t post abroad, I
haven't a doubt that the whip of the
senate would have prevented con
Jirmation of my appointment." He
observed that of the two men Mr.
Lewis was the luckier, as he was re
tired in a gubernatorial campaign "by
only half a million votes. Of course,
be had only one. state 'to count on
vh'ile Cohy, with the--whole country
to pick from, was retired by 7,000,
000." ,. ; . '
The Am'cricans'iprcsent were elect
ed unanimously ,to membership in
the 'ane.icnt'.luh. '. jr. P. .O'Connor,
presented as "liaison office between
the Celtic and Ajiglo-Saxon people"
announced his intention? of going to
the United States to ask - the Irish
not to sow discord between the English-speaking
peoples.

Jewel,-Flower, Color
Symbols for Today
By MILDRED MARSHALL.
Jet, emblematic of sorrow, is to
day's talismanic gem. The ancients
believed that it protected its wearer
from the causes of sorrow, if worn
against the flesh. Like the pearl,
jet loses its lustre if not worn fre
quently. For thoSe born on some anniver
sary of this day the opal is the natal
stone. It brings to them the promise
of great world possessions and a
life -of ease and luxury.
Today's fortunate color is yellow,
and to the women who wear it, it
signifies unexpected happiness.
The flower for today is the purple
hyacinth the ancients believed that
its presence in a bouse drove away
' sorrow.
(Copyr!tit, 921, by Wheeler Syndlcste.)

"Adamless Eden" at
' Iowa . State College
May End in Courts
Des Moines, l'a Dec. 22. (Spe
cial Telegram.) Because authori
ties of Iowa State college at Ames
deprived members of the Delta Del
ta Delta sorority of their social
campus privileges for a period of six
weeks, the state board 'of education
is threatened .with a legal vindica
tion battle in a petition filed here
tfHlay by. parents of some of the
girls. .
The tcinpot in the teapot aros-e
over alleged violation of "rushing
rules" which resulted in the college
authorities decreeing that tlv tri
della girls must remain "undated and
unfeted'1 "for a period of six weeks.
The complaint made to the state

thorities with failure to act in good
faith and endeavoring to advance the

other. The girls will emerge from
their Adamlcss Eden with the ad
vent of the Christmas holidays.
