TH ' cannot) bO# m?de to pay any Ion gar in
Englagduen the Unas followed in the
past ndtr present conditions," said
Sir AfllMr Boecawan in the last
speech ho made as Minister of Agricultural
r While he was talking to
the members of the Farmers' Union
about .the hard times that were in- (
evitabh in store for the majority of
them, Premier Lloyd George handed
in his; resignation to the King and
Sir Atthor automatically became an 1
ex-minister. '
His > speech, as he admitted him- ,
self, centelned only 'cold comfort for (
those who had to get their living* ,
from thfer land." Some farmers, he <
,, prophesied, would go under, and there <
would; be "acute distress in the coun- 1
try dhtripts before prosperity could 1
return '
"Thire. may be a future for the
dairy fawners," he said, "and live- ,
stock ihrming generally may be able ,
to pay fairly well In time, but for the i
ranhlai fhrmn*m >V?n -
. -w awiuvtv WMV will ^IVVT^IO
I can. see only a gloomy outlook."
Referring to the views of one of hi*
predecessors in office, he said: "Lord
Ailwya, probably was right in thinking
that much arable land will be
come grass; that the rural districts
will be depopulated, and that there
will be great misery among farmer?
and their laborers."
According to his own survey of the
state of Agriculture, its future seems
to lie in large farms in favorable
dsitriets, cultivated as cheaply as
possible, with patches of intensively
cultivated land.
"Wh*t can the government do?" he t
asked, "there are only two remedies
?protection or subsidies."
The farmers showed plainly whoch
of the two remedies they preferred
by cheering loudly the mention of
"proteetiton," and greeting "subsidies"
with vociferous cries of dissent.
Bht Sir Arthur would not al/S
low' the.poor farmers to comfort
themselves with any false hopes.
"It would be dishonest to suggest,"
Kn /IOAIamo/I of fKn iiiwioiint
cither remedy is practical. The agri f
cultural interests have a com para- q
tiveiy small representation in the ?
House of Commons, which is per- j
manently urban in character. The
government may adopt some palliatives,
but' it will insist that agricul
tore must work out its own salvation
on an economic basis."
Women Honored by
British Shipwrights
London, Nov. 19.?One of the old
city - companies, the Worshipful Company
of Shipwrights, has broken all
traditions by making seven women
"freemen" of its guild. They are the
? ^ytiyofs nl, men. -distinguished in the
skipping world, and the honor is accorded
not only because their husbands
are prominent, but in recognition
of their own labors on behalf of
shipping interests. The women are

White, lady Abel and Lady Parsons.

The buugei strike, as a means t?
gaining one's end. is not a modern institution.
Like so many other things
that relate to personal and national
conduct, it becomes necessary to hark
back to the old Kouians to find an instance
of where It was successfully
employed.
It was in 6 B. C. and Tiberius, the
famous general of Emperor Augustus,
was the man who put It over with a
dispatch that would have brought
praises from moderns.
Tiberius was a man of dignity and
spirit, who represented traditional
conservatism. He was married to
lulla. daughter of Augustus, widow
?f Agrlppa. by whom she had five children.
among them Calus. who figures
In this tale. She was given to that
luxurious life which was feared hy
:he philosophers and legislators of the
:lme.
While Tiberius was engaged In the
campaign against the Germans. Julia
commenced to cut up with a young
irlatocrat. Senipronlus Gracchus. Augustus
had. 12 years previously,
nade a law which Just fitted her case
ind under which she later was exled.
Julia not only continued her lux
areer, but also started on outlining
I political career for Calus. then
fourteen years old. It was In direct

That l? where Tiberius balked. He
ooked upon the whole business as ?n
nsult and detonnded permission to reIre
to prlvnte life. This caused a
lash with Augustus. It was then

Romance B?fins Happily 1
Copenhagen, Nov. 19.?The racen:
announcement of the engagement o:
Piint ess Dag mar, youngest sister of
King Christian of Denmark, has ydiaelosed
a romance between a maid of y
royal blood and the poor acoin of an
ancient family.
The Princess, who is 32 years old,
is understood to have been secretly
engaged to hed future husband, Joergen
de Castenskiold, for some time. M
He is a nephew of Grevenkop de Castenskiold,
until recently the Danish q
embassador to the court of St. Jamej.
The engagement was officially announced
late in October at Egelund,
the summer residence of Dowager
Queen Louise, mothtor of the Princess,
in the presence of King Christian and
Queen Alexanderine. All other members
of the royal family and those of J*
the de Castenskiold family were present.
M
6t
Queen Louise rose at the end of the ^
dinner and said: "It gives me great ^
pleasure to announce the engage- ^
munt of iny beloved daughter, Hagmar,
to Joergen do Castenskiold.
May Ciod bless them both." a
The Queen then beckoned to Mr. ^
do Castenskiold. He went to the
Queen, who kissed him on the cheek, n,
and then King Christian shook him (j,
heartily by the hand. y
There was special warmth in the ?r
congratulations of Prince Aage, who Ol
himself a few years ago married a bq
"commoner," the beautiful daughter
in Count di Calvi, the Italian minis
lor to Denmark. Before obtaining fh
King Chrisliapis consent. Prince Aage g?
had to resign all claims to the Danish th
throne. w<
The marriage of the Princess is to in
take place the end of November. Ck
Wealthy members of the family have de
presented the prospective bridegroom fu
with an extensive estate in North $8,
Jutland, and it is understood that
Queen I.ouise has given the young P*
ef.uple an allowance of 20,000 crowns A<
a year, for young de Castenskiold is ha
only a salaried man. He was for- ?
u.orly an ollicer of the King's Guards, tbi
at <1 later assistant manager of a
salmon fishing enterprise in Alaska.
Kinu Christian made it a condition, ***
before giving his consent to the marriage,
that the couple must have a "a
eountrv estate. "

Boy Scout Organization di'
Plans New Training Centers ^
" op
New York, Nov. 19.?The National m
Council of the Boy Scouts of America,
carrying out its program of ex- m
pansion, has announced its purpose of pr
opening four big national centers fo>' j,a
the expert training of scout executives.
Ug
Immediate plans are on foot to es- g?i
tablish the first of these centers near
?lpw York, and the Council is already an
seeking ground for that purpose. It
is hoped to establish other centers, <
probably one in the middle West, one g{J
in the far West and one in the South. aft
This "headquarters in the field" will gr*
furnish an opportunity to concentrate aei
on experimental work as well as fur T1j
nish an excellent training center, es- bo
pecially for courses in "How to Train am
Scoutmasters." If it is not practi- lie
i able to bring the executives to the wl
icnteds for training along these lines, tin
it will lie possible to move the head tin
faculty to different parts of the An
> ountry. ,
The scout executive is the salaried
official in a big city or community,
who makes scouting his business, and
directs the volunteer leadership of
the movement. For many years
there have been available in different
parts of the country, various training fUt
courses for scoutmasters. The scout- $61
master is the voulnteer leader who
takes charge of a unit called a troop.
Mortimer L. Schiff, who has served j
as Vice President of the National ha
Council, has recently been appointed If*
International Commissioner of the to
organization. He will devote his time ^
to the international affairs of the Boy ^
Stouts. to
Since the beginning of scouting in bri
this country over 12 years ago, a Ni
total of 4.777 eagle badges, the high
est rank in scouting,' have been is- 9*
sued. Of this number 1,477 have ^
been alloted since the first of the tri
present year, en
It is considered remarkable that fu
such a large proportion of these no
marks of distinction should have been
given out in the past 10 months. In 9?
? - .U.I- WI. --V- a 1 "I
uiuvi w nvvmu turn iiiucii uovuieu
eagle badge, the scout begins as a ^
tenderfoot and climb* up the ladder in
one rung at a time until he becomes a
second class, and then a first class
scout. It ia at -this-point that the
boy begins to do his real climbing
which calls for training along special
lines. After he,is a first class scout,
h?- may become a life scout, and then
a star scout, and then comes the
highest rank, whicti is Eagle.
Eleven of the merit badges tho
scout must obtain to .become ah
Eagle the specifically in the fields of
first aid, life saving, personal healtht,
?ublie health, cooking, camping, civ's,
bird study, path finding, pioneering,
and nthletics or physical development.
Z
From now until next February the I
scout organization will conduct a I
campaign for more members. It is I
hoped to increase the enrollment by I
100,000 scout>v or 26 percent of the I
present membership. mm

Clemenceau Anecdotes
Paris, Nov. 18.?During a visit to
the British front in 1918, one evening
r.fter dinner, Georges Clemenceau had
occasion to leave headquarters for a
few minutes and in the pitch darkness
>f the night lost his way.
"Halt, who goes there," the senr:y's
cry suddenly was heard. Clem nccau
did not have the countersign,
and the sentry stubbornly refused to
ct him pass.
'You don't suppose I'm a German,"
h? "Tiger" finally asked.
"1 dont suppose anything about it,"
>epiicd Tommy, "I simply don't
know." -Then after a moment's
thought the sentry said:
"All right, just you pronounce the
word 'squirrel.' "
Clemenccau's pronunciation oassed
the muster of the critical sentry, and
the premier was permitted to proceed.
Paris, Nov. 18.?When (icorgei
Cicmenceau took charge of the Minis
try of the Interior in 19045 he made

months' tenure of office, announced to!
hib chief clerk:
"~ "Pfe got rid of all the dead wood;
those who remain here now should
find enough work to do."
Passing through the general offices
* few days later, Clemenceau reached
a desk in front of which snt an employe,
his head on his elbow, sleeping
roundly and snoring snorously.
"Don't wake him up," he said, "he
might go away."
I -a is, Nov. 18.?The sale of tobacco
.ji France is a government monopoly,
and the right to keep tobacco stores is
granted by the Ministry of the In ciior
at the request of deputies, who
often desire thus to reward some of
their constituents.
Georges Clemenceau was being anncyed
by a deputy who persistently
claimed one of the largest tobacco
stores in Paris, the manager of which
belonged to the opposition.
The third visit of the deputy to
the Ministry of the Interior found the
"Tiger" in a sarcastic mood. "I can't
decide about the tobacco store just
yet," Clemenceau said as he escorted
him to the door, "but take this, it is a
start at any rate."
And he handed the deputy a very
small cigar.
l'nris, N'ov. 18.?To Georges Clemeiueau's
numerous accomplishments,
writer, orator, journalist, politician,
Matesmnn and duellist, must be added
that of occasional pick-pocket.
Frond Deputies, by paying a yearly
rompulysory contribution, are entitled
to free drinks and sandwiches from
the bar of the chamber. And old radica.
deputy, elected in 1886, was wont
to avail himself of the bar privileges
without the slightest reserve. Standing
in front of the bar one day, after
he had absorbed drir.ks and partaken
of sandwiches to the limit of his capacity,
the hungry member of parliament
proceeded to fill the spacious
pockets of his swallow-tail coau
Clemenceau, standing just behind him,
was extracting each sandwich from
the pocket of the deputv as fast as
they were stowed away. Michou. that
was the deputy's name, finally became
aware of the "theft" as the sixth
sandwich failed to show any perceptible
increase in the weight of his coat.
Turning around he beheld Clemenceau
In the center of a group, passing
sandwiches about amid great mirth.
Michou vowed there and then he
would avenge himself.
In 1888 Clemenceau was a candidate
for the position of president of the
chamber, with M. Meline as his opponent.
Michou, although a political
frnnd of Clemenceau and belonging
U the same party, the radical, voted
hgainst the "Tiger." Meline and
ipirmenceau both obtained exactly 212
>otos each.
According^ to French parliamentary
l?w, the office went to Meline, art being
Senior to Clemenceau in years of service.

Georges Clemenceau accompanied the
venerable M. Fallieres, then president
of the French Republic, on a voyage
to the Pyrennes district, during the
course of which they reached a small
village perched high upon a mountain
aide.
The statesmen attended the inauguration
of a new fountain. The mayor,
in welcoming the distinguished vis- itors
from Paris, lauded the republican
regime, bestowed great compliments
upon the virtues, civic and other*,
of the president and premier, and
spoke at great length. Clemenceau
listened with visible impatience to the
oration until the mayor remarked
that the village had been built originally
upon a mountain side to protect
is against the attacks of the
Moors and Sarracens.
"You've succeeded remarkably
well," Clemenceau cut in, "for since
our arival here wc havent met n sin_
gle one of them."
The end of the mayors speech was
lost in the storm of laughter that followed.
