WAR IS OVER! 1 MAYORS WILL ; LEAVE FRANCE U. S. Tourists Make Up Their Minds About Prohibition. BY SIDNEY B. WHIPPLE Untied Press Staff Correspondent PARIS, June 15.—A homesick group of American mayors, appreciative of four weeks of hospitality in France, but longing to shuck their tail-coats and get back to business, sail Tuesday on the lie De France for home. The mayors got lost Sunday on their way to Blerancourt and kept Mrs. W. K. Vanderbilt, Miss Ann Morgan, Andrew Tardieu. former premier, and Walter E. Edge, American ambassador, waiting tw r o hours for luncheon. They suffered from the heat and thirst until relieved at a village case near Senlis. They’ve Been Brave In their month in France, the mayors have toured most of the nation. They have been taken to every conceivable spot in which the government believed they would have an interest. The mayors found it tedious at times. They have groaned when they rose early in the morning, like a troupe of one-night-stand actors, to make the next town. But they stuck by manfully and with grit and patience subjected themselves to the necessary banqueting and speech-making. The prohibition question, which entered somewhat into their progress through France, appeared to have been settled, as far as the majority of the mayors was concerned. The general attitude might be summed up by the expression of Rolland B. Marvin of Syracuse. ‘ They All Turn Wet! "I am more than ever convinced," he said, ‘‘that the answer to the temperance question is in restoring personal liberty to the people. The French people never appear to abuse the privilege. France seems to be a nation that believes in personal liberty not as a matter of politics, but as a human right and principle." Sylvestro Andrlano, representing San Francisco, said the United States should take a lesson from France on prohibition. "In California,” he said, "we would be prosperous today and there would be no unemployment if our vinew yards and our vintners could operate legitimately under the law\” Kirk McKinney, representing Indianapolis, said the French regard personal liberty as a matter utterly divorced from politics.

‘Doctor of Matrimony’ Is Degree They’ll Add to Their Laurels. BY ARCH STEINEL Cap and gown was doffed today ! at Butler university by two ‘‘co-eds’’ . for bridal dresses. The A. B. degree of Butler will be I forgotten for the M. D. degree (doctor of matrimony) of the University of Wedlock, when Miss Lillian Pierson, 2703 North Pennsylvania street, is married Tuesday morning to Eugen R. Clifford, and Miss Alice Shirk, 3828 Guilford avenue, to Robert W. Garten, 3242 North Meridian street, Wednesday afternoon. But before they left the educational university for the real-life one, they got the nearest approach to advice that they’ll ever get on entering their new alma mater from Robert J. Aley, president of Butler. Degrees Will Be Earned "You’re going where angels fear to tread. Persons marrying never take advice and it’s foolish to give any. The degrees you get in your new school will be earned,” joked Dr. Aley. "It’s a good thing to stand in with the professor, but I presume you’ve done that already in your past school life,” he warned. The co-eds smiled assent. They have more fears for the camera than they do the orange blossoms and "I do’s” of the wedding ceremony. She’s ‘Demi-Modern’ Miss Pierson admits she’s a "demi-modern” and will continue her part-time work of selling advertising after her marriage. In turn Miss Shirk says she’ll be “old fashioned and keep the home fires burning.” Miss Pierson will be married at 10:30 Tuesday morning at the All Souls Unitarian church. Miss Shirk’s rites will be held at 3 Wednesday afternoon at the Tabernacle Presbyterian church. The co-eds will go on short honeymoons. MRS. F. MT COUP DIES Bom on Farm Near What Now Is Broad Ripple.
