Great crowds met Marshal Foch, Premier Clemenceau and the other members at the depot in London and cheered wildly. The men were greeted with cheers whenever they appeared at gatherings or in public.

What shall I consider his intentions are? DOUBTFUL DOROTHY. He has no intentions. He wants to get as much enjoyment as he can kissing you Without binding himself to a promise of marriage. Do not be so easy. Accept his friendship, if you

Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a mar
ried woman forty years old and I have three grown children. My husband has not been true to me for over ten years, but I have stood everything for
the sake of my children. My youngest child is to be married in about
four weeks and then I will be left
alone with my husband. He does not love me and he goes with other women openly.
Don't you think that after twentytwo years of faithfulness to my family I am entitled to do as I please?
I have decided to divorce my husband. My children oppose this because of what people will say. People have already said so much about my

say now. MRS. McD. I believe that you should follow the course which will bring you the most happiness. If your children had a good reason for wanting you to remain with your husband, that would be different. But since they are merely afraid of what people will say, you should consider your own desires in the matter.

Throughout the last week at Earlham College various entertainments have marked the approaching holiday season, which began for faculty and students on Friday afternoon at 4 o'clock. The greater part of the student body had left the college by Saturday to remain until January 6, when
classes will be resumed. .
A Christmas chapel was attended
by the College Friday morning. Professor William N. Trueblood read an original poem and Christmas hymns were sung. Dr Alexander C. Purdy delivered a
j Christmas sermon last Sunday morn
ing in unaiey nail. His subject was, "Do Not Forget Jesus Christ." At the Sunday school hour special Christmas classes were featured and a collection for the North Fourteenth Street mission was taken. Sunday evening the joint associations lead by Miss Leberta Patrick met in the association room of Earlham Hall. The Y. W. C. A. dressed 25 dolls, and bought 30 pounds of candy and popcorn for the Mission this year, but owiing to the influenza ban which has been strictly observed at the College up to Friday night, the mission Children could not be brought out to Earlham for the usual Christmas party. Miss Westine Lietzman is chairman of the social committee, and Miss Mama Johnson, a member of the committee, was delegated to present the gifts to the Mission next Tuesday evening. Santa Claus will be impersonated by J. M. Johnson at that time.

END OF WARS IS AIM, PRESIDENT WILSON CLAIMS
Statesmen Must Create Safe
guard Against Future Wars, Says in Interview. LONDON, Dec. 21. The London Times published today an exclusive interview with President Wilson cabled bv its snecial correspondent in
Paris. Asked what, in his mind, was the great purpose of the conference and the great goal toward which the delegates would strive, the president said"I think the plain man in the street can answer that as well as I can. The plain people of all nations now are looking with anxious expectations toward Versailles, and I am sure that they are asking themselves this one question: " 'Will there be found enough of wisdom and purpose among the statesmen there assembled to create a safeguard against future wars?' "The first question asked by the Interviewer was why the president had come to Europe. To this Mr. Wilson replied : "It is obvious that the forthcoming conference is of such overwhelming importance that the United States can not refuse to share with the allies the great responsibility for civilization. "It is only by the frankest personal consultation with the statesmen of the allied countries that I can, in some measure, assist in the solution of these problems." "I hope," continued the president, "to confer in the near future not only with the allied statesmen assembled In France, but also to visit the allied countries and there learn by personal contact, as much as I can of the general sentiments with regard to the chief problems. "I am anxious to go to England because I have reason to know with what what unanimity and with what passion of conviction the people of Great Britain and America have entertained the same conception of liberty and justice.

upon It the Times Bays:
"All freedom loving nations look to President Wileon as the most powerful factor in making a righteous and durable peace." The newspaper expresses conviction that such peace is "not to be secured without the realization of Mr. Wilson's ideal of a league of nations. The most abiding impression of his visit to England will be that the English are determined that safeguards
against future wars must be created."

WILSON TERMS
Continued From Page One. Wilson's need not be incorporated in the peace treaty because secret treaties never have and never can exist in this country, and he added: "Secret diplomacy is a loose term and I think that the question is of no vital importance at this moment, and whatever our views may be about
uie memoas or diplomacy, we can i
make peace without Germany without undertaking to settle what shall constitute secret diplomacy in the future and what shall not." Urging postponement of action on the matter of economic barriers, he said it "opens a wide field for discussion," and "its settlement is not in the least essential to ending the war by a peace wih Germany. 'We can make that peace without determining at this moment what we shall do with our tariffs in the making of which every nation ought to have entire freedom."

of the city was ever on his heart and as the burden of the support of such enterprises falls largely upon the business community such leadership in these movements inspired confidence in honest administration. He not only gave generously of his money, but much of his time was devoted to all of these movements. His active, useful and wholesome life gives inspiration for ever higher standards in business and social life. While the large retail business which
bears his name is a splendid monument to his ability as a merchant, the thing that is more enduring than that
are his inumerable benevolences and
the Inspiration he has given to young men in useful careers.
Therefore, we as retail merchants do honor to him who was easily the peer of us all in thus giving public expression of our esteem for him as a merchant, a citizen, a benefactor and
a man, and urge that some more formal mark of recognition be made before his burial in which we are sure hundreds will wish to join. Resolutions for Mr. Knollenberg will probably be drawn by members of St. Paul's Lutheran church following the services Sunday.
