i SIMPLE STATEMENT OF FACT — Explanation Showed That Both Man i ager and His Assistant Had Tsid the Truth. With a firm tread and a masterful air the woman stepped Into the florist’s ;*hep. i After gazing about for some mo ments her choice fell upon a green t>alm in an ornamental pot. The assistant approached with def erence. i "Will It grow well in the sunsnme?” she Inquired. "Yes, niRdam.” “Don't snv it will If It won’t.” she snapped. “If it does well In the sun, will the shade hurt K?” “Oh, no, madam.” "What I” she exclaimed. "You tell me It will thrive equally well In sun: shine or shade? Young man, you don’t know your business. Fetch the man ager.” The manager was summoned. Even he quailed before her; but, all the same, he backed up his assistant’s statement. ‘‘Then It Is really a remarkable plant,” she commented, sarcastically.] “My good man. It Is both ridiculous and) unnatural.” “That’s Just it,” said the nMmage^ quietly; “it’s an artificial plunt.” Statistics show that If a man and a woman are riding together la a train which meets with disaster, the1 woman has more chances of escaping death than the man. tlfnADV A AV*I*. tV to'vi'KWKenKnt, read it care.

The conditions are so simple and fair that every housewife in; the United States can take part in this National Recipe Festival! Ij There Is No Other Food Like Grape-Nuts I WHILE practically every man, woman and child in the Eng lish-speaking world knows Grape-Nuts as « delicious, nourishing and wholesome cereal, and while it is common knowledge that Grape-Nuts with milk or cream is a complete food, many housewives do not know of the appetizing and economical dishes that can be prepared with Grape-Nuts. It lends itself, we believe, to more uses than '.ny other cereal. The con venience and economy of Grape-Nuts, and the flavor, zest and wholesomeness which it imparts to other food, make it invaluable in every home. | Frequently we receive in teresting letters from won en throughout the country, telling about the attractive dishes they make with Grape-Nuts—de licious puddings, salads, dress ings for fowls, etc. No doubt there are thousands of women who are finding varied uses for Grape-Nuts in their home cooking, and even more thou sands who will be glad to learn of those varied uses; for while -we all cling to old favorite dishes, we also welcome and enjoy a change. j So that is the thought back of our offer of more than $7500.00 in cash for new ways of using Grape-Nuts. To those women who are already using Grape-Nuts in various ways, other than as a breakfast cereal or in the recipes given here, and to those women who would like to try their hand at de veloping some new way to use Grape-Nuts, we offer to buy at $50.00 each not less than 101 new Grape-Nuts Recipes. We plan to include these new Recipes in a beautifully illus trated cook book. What Is Grape-Nuts? Grape-Nuts is ■ highly nutritious food in the form* of crisp, golden gran ules. It contains the full nutriment of wheat and barley, including vitamin-B and mineral elements required for building sturdy health. These ele ments are often lacking in the ordinary diet, chiefly through "over-refinement’ ’ in the preparation of food. No other food is so thoroughly baked as Grape-Nuts. More than 20 hours are consumed in the baking process which makes Grape-Nuts easy to digest, and also develops a natural sweetness from the grains themselves. The form and crispness of Grape Nuts invite thorough mastioation—a decided advantage because this not only provides proper exercise for the teeth, but makes for good digestion. Every housewife in the Land should take advantage of thia extraordinary opportunity to earn the tidy sum of $50.00 by a little pleasant and educa tional effort in her own home. Also the fair and equal ohance to secure one of the liberal awards to be made by Good Housekeeping Institute. — Moreover, there’s the greater knowledge of the value of Grape Nuts, not only as a delicious break fast cereal, but in the preparation of a variety of appetizing dishes that add to the health and pleasure of the whole family.

FRANCE TO NEW TERMS Joint Note to Be Sent Ger many and Allies—Curt Re jection of Germany’s Propos ■ ais Forwarded Sunday. BY BASIL D. WOON, Universal Service Correspondent. Special Wireless Dispatch. Paris, May 6.—The Franco-Belgian reply to the latest German note on reparations was remitted to Germany Sunday afternoon. It was a simple rejection of the proposals and offered no counter proposals. Meanwhile, it is learned that Franco-Belglan experts have drawn up, provisionally, a joint note to Ger many and to the Allies, detailing the minimum terms on which France and Belgium will consent to evacuate the Ruhr. Latest French Terms. The first of these terms is that Germany must cease all passive re sistance in the Ruhr. The second proposition is that Germany must agree to hand over control of its fi nances to the reparations commis sion. In addition to that, Germany must acept the 1921 schedule for rep arations with the understanding that it will be subject to revision by the Allies after examination of all Ger man resources, and that the Franco Belgian forces remain In the Ruhr until the expiration of a two-year moratorium, meanwhile exploting the industries and mines for their profit. Thereafter, they will evacuate slowly, in proportion to the payments made by Germany. No mention is made of a minimum sum to be demanded from Germany, but the plan indicates a willingness to reduce the total debt to probably 50 billion gold marks, providing the United States and England are will ing to accept the German “class C" bonds in payment for war debts. ^— NEGOTIATIONS PLANNED. Universal Service. Special Cable Dispatch. London, May 6.—The British cab inet will meet Monday to decide the terms of the note in reply to the Ger man offer, according to information Sunday night. Indignation is expressed by British ministers, both at the curtness of the Franco-Belglan reply and their neglect to secure the opinion of the Allies before replying. The British view is that although the German offer is not satisfactory it forms the basis for future offers. Lord Curzon’s interviews with the French ministers are reported to have been very stormy. BANK'S GASH KEPT NESTSiEATHERED Philadelphia Widow, New York Doll and Baltimore Tootsie Wootsie Sap ported by Cashier. Universal Service. York, Pa., May 6.—Thomas Baird, cashier of the City Bank, who is un der arrest here as a defaulter, main tained three live nests, detectives said Sunday. Authorities investigating the cash ier’s affairs say he has received let ters from a “baby doll” in New .York, a widow in Philadelphia and a woman in Baltimore. Detectives who went to Philadel phia say they located Miss Loretta Gaffety, known in the Quaker City as Mrs. Thomas Benton, who admitted the banker was the father of her child and that he frequently visited her. In addition to the three out of town women, the name of a York mani curist is also being linked to that of the banker. Funds stolen from the bank, the officials say, paid for maintaining Baird's love nests in three cities, bought expensive gifts for his “toot sie wootsies" and financed gay parties in several towns. Baird has a wife and five daughters living in New York. Efforts to recover the‘money said to have been taken by him resulted in unearthing only $10,000. This was turned over to the state bank exam iner by Mrs. Baird, who says it was given to her the day the shortage WU3 discovered. It is said money has been disap pearing from the bank over a period of 23 years. Baird is unable to raise the $200, 000 bond demanded and is still in Jail. William H. Boll, assistant cashier, is also accused of partaking in the theft. He attributes his downfall t& 'bootleg liquor prices.” He is mar 1 ied and has a reputation of being a popular club member and a favorite among the women. DESTROY VINEYARDS. Freshno, Cal., May 6 (A.

BY WILEY S. SCRIBNER, Universal Service Correspondent. Chicago, May 6.—A man who claims to have been an eye witness to the hazing of Leighton Mount was found by the authorities Sunday. The young Northwestern univer sity student was overpowered and choked insensible by five or six men and dragged away by them, accord ing to the new witness. The man who gave this informa tion is John A. Strom, a fisherman, living on the lake shore near the university. He claims that members of his family also witnessed the overpowering and choking of the student. “Four of them were holding the man down and the others stuffed sand in his mouth to stop his cries,” said Strom. “Finally ha stopped struggling and they dragged him to ward the lake.” Story Being Investigated. The authorities Sunday night were not ready to accept the man's story as authentic. They believe he is re lating the truth, but are not satisfied that the man he saw overpowered and dragged away was Mount. It has developed half a dozen students were attacked in the class rush. Walter Dill Scott, president of Northwestern university is to be one of the first witnesses in the grand jury investigation, scheduled to open Tuesday. Mr. Scott has been des cribed as a reluctant witness In the coroner's Investigation, conducted last week. It was said he shunned publicity. It was fear of publicity that caused the investigation of the disappearance of Mount in 1921 to b* dropped, ac cording to facts brought out in the coroner's inquiry. Coeds Responsible f Northwestern university Is known In college circles as "exclusive," but withal at the forefront in “modern ism," it boasts of the prettiest coeds. And In the days of short skirts the Northwestern Coeds were said to have worn theirs short first, and shortest. It led in the bobbed-hair fad and every other fad that dazzled the coun try right after the war. And the masculine students vied with each other to impress this galaxy of coeds. That is what caused the class rush to be so rough, it is claimed. The two year men wanted to hold first place in the esti mation of coeds and one of the ways they adopted to accomplish this was to keep first year men in subjection. The tragedy of the disappearance of Mount wasn’t discussed openly. In fraternity curcles there was lots of talk, but it ended there. The coro ner hasn’t been able to break through this ring of secrecy. The grand Jury will make an attempt. General Probe of Hazing, Thomas J. Peden, assistant prose cutor in charge of the inquiry, held a long conference with State’s Attor ney Edgar A. Jonas. It was decided the grand Jury should Investigate every angle of hazing at Northwest ern, as well as the Mount case in particular. . "We are going to sift the evidence of violence on the night of Septem ber 21, 1921, when Mount disappear ed, to the bottom," said Mr. Peden. "We are going to find out if hazing is practiced with consent of univer sity officials.’’ Police records dealing with class warfare at Northwestern university in 1921, when Leighton Mount, freshman, disappeared, were altered to “save the name” of the in stitution. Coroner Oscar Wolf an nounced Saturday. Bi LGIUM~SAYaT«NO." Brussels, May 5 (A. P;)—The Bel gian council of ministers today ex amined officially the German repar ation proposals and unanimously de cided they were unacceptable. TO TRY CACHIN. Paris, May 5 (A. P.)—Mercil Cachin, communist leader %nd mem ber of the chamber of deputies, will be tried by the French senate sitting as a high court, on May 24, it was an nounced today. Deputy Cachin, whose parliamentary immunity has been cancelled, is in La Sante prison. He is charged with “an offense ] against the security of the state” I growing out of the speech he made at Essen on January 9 protesting against the French occupation of the Ruhr. SIOUX TRIBE BRINGING BIG DAMAGE SUIT Claims to Be Filed Today for Tribe Members in Dakotas, Nebraska and Montana— Pay Demanded for Lands. Universal Service. Washington, May 6.—One of the largest suits ever brought against the government will oe filed In the court of claims here Monday by the Sioux tribe of Indians of North and South Dakota, Nebraska, and Montana. The Indians are making demands in 40 items for a total of $219,635, 149.62. In many Instances interest Is demanded, bringing the total suit to more than $700,000,000. The ac tion is brought under the provisions of Indian treaties dating as far back as 1825. The Sioux claim an area of more than 8,000,000 acres was taken from them by the government in North Dakota In 1875 in violation of thpir rights and without just compensation. This immense tract includes the * Black Hills, said to be the most con slstant gold producing area In the — United States. The suit Is not for return of the land, but for compensation at the rate of $100 an acre for the mineral lands and $50 an acre for the timber lands. This Is what the Indians claim the land was worth at the time it was taken from them. Today it Is worth many times that figure. In fact, the timber alone is worth more than the amount for which the suit is brought. The Sioux also demand payment for big game slaughtered by whites on their hunting ground; payment for wood and hay cut by military forces on their reservation; a fair account ing on lands opened up for settling by the department of the interior, and fulfillment of tfeaty guarantees made in 1868, under which, they claim, $50,000,000 Is due them. The attorneys for the Indians ars Maj. Ralph Case and Maj. C. C. Cal houn, of this city. The attorneyship for the Sioux nation was accepted by Charles E. Hughes in 1920, but was relinquished when he received the appointment as secretary of state. In a statement issued Sunday by Major Case and Captain Calhoun they declare that they have had ac countants working on the case for months, and that they have evidence to justify every claim made in the petition. WORLD COURT CETS LENROOT BUCKING Wisconsin Senator Tells Cedar Rapids Audience He Fa vors Plan as Suggested by Harding. Cedar Rapids, la.. May 6 (Special). .—Senator Irvin J. Lenroot, of Wis consin, in an address here Sunday, declared himself in favor of the United states participating in the world court under the plan presented by President Harding. “Our national obligations would be no greater if we joined the court, ex cept in a financial way,” Senator Lenroot asserted. “I do not see that the court is binding on any one and I feel that it is totally unlike en tangling alliances.” • Without mentioning names, Sen ator Lenroot rapped demagogues and ‘‘quack policies”. "Depression and discontent ar* the harveot of the demagoguea,” h® Bftid. “A happy and contented peoplo is the last thing they desire for they would be without occupations if this condition existed.” These statements were believed to refer to Senator LaFollette. The senator declared he did not take legislative blocs as seriously a* some statesmen, but he believes they have done great harm and little good. He declared against government ownership of railroads, endorsed * farm credits and made a plea for business men to get into politics. BERLIN COLLEGIANS. DELVE INTO OCCULT Universal Service.
