Almost every invitation at this time of the year is sure to include that demand to "be sure to bring the bathing suit along." And invariably the young person who has lived too far from the seashore for nine months of the year is not prepared. The stores, however, are full of such attractive suits as this one of black surf satin and she may choose from large assortments one which will suit her beauty and purse at the same time.

ed throughout the dragging months of the war at the spirit of reckless enthusiasm and the utter non-comprehension with which the United States

was "going to war". She was and lsj connected with the head office of the J Armenian and Syrian relief. "You do not understand and you never will understand what this war was," said she. "I had a brother fight through it all until the last push, and I saw England In her anguish. No. you will never understand. "I could paint for you, as it has been painted before, the lines of departing British soldiers lacking military formation because of sad eyed and desolate wives who were accompanying them to the railroad stations to bid them good bye, doubtless for the last time. I could show you London full to overflowing of wounded, fearfully wounded men, but how can you know 7 Went Through Raid An airplane flew overhead as Mrs. Whitney talked, but she did not even look up. The reporter mentioned that there was an airplane, and her answer was a far away "yes". Later she told of her experience in the now historical English air raids, and one would no longer wonder. Why should a little woman who, while carrying aid to her English sisters, had lived through some of those roost horrible nights and days, notice a pleasure plane? When another plane passed over afterwards she glanced at Is unseelngly. Was she remembering things too unbearable to tell? "I see the American congress pass a navy appropriation ot a vast sum, I read candid, oh very candid, editorials mentioning the "next war," and I wonder with an aching heart what it is to mean. Even the little children are reading tales In which the American, the English, the Frenchman is glorified, but I see nothing of the misery of the enemy, depicted and I do not see the end of wars. Mess of Secret Treaties. "I had great and hopes of the final peace treaty and ot the league of nations, but instead of a great and glorious world union we have a mess of secret treaties made by members of the old regime, and recently I see very little of that before much used phrase, 'this Is a war to end wars.' It is evidently was not, you see! "I thought that President Wilson was a great man, yes perhaps the greatest man in the world, but I am disappointed deeply," said Miss Whitney. "We have his word that he did get his fourteen points, but did he? "If before America ever entered the war. while the allies were screaming

for help, the president had said 'we j

will come In, under consideration of these fourteen points,' then thing might have been different, but I realize that so long as Lloyd George, and Clemanceau were in the conference, Wilson waa up a tree, so to speak. I mean that America had helped; had done what waa needed; aha was needed no longer, and stipulatldns had not been made before hand, so, the inevitable result.

"In my opinion Sir Robert Settle is the greatest man in England today," taid Mrs. Whitney. I admire him a very great deal. Lloyd George la a conniving politician; Sir Robert Settle is a great statesman- Of course I must admit that I have r.ever come before Lloyd George's personal magic; I have never heard his speak, and I understand that persons thoroughly hating him have set beside him at dinner parties and have come away profoundly charmed. Sir Robert Is, of course, a Unionist and in that I d6 not agree with him, but he is a great many other things. He is almost like an opposition leader. I believe he is a truly great man. "Ireland is Muddle." Speaking of Ireland and the Irish

Question Mrs. Whitney branched, into a sincere discussion of the existing conditions, the shortcomings and the realities evident. She described Dublin as she had seen It in 1917, after a mad slaughter by English recruits, and bemoaned the foolish steps which have been taken in trying to help the Irish situation. So little .understanding and so much political red tape has been used, she said, that things have gotten into a fearful, muddle. "Mexico is your Ireland, is it not?" she asked. "The Irish are naturally emotional and exciteable, I suppose, and with the conflicting influences and above all the pseudo Irish anarchists, who are real

ly anti-British, the situation is really a serious one. I hope Ireland will

have Home Rule, but while Ulster et'ckS what can be done." said she. , England in Chaos "In England herself I consider things are in a serious way." said Mrs. Whitney. "An Immense reaction la going on now after the war; an terrible hatred of compulsory service; of everything that pertains to war and fighting, and an unparalelled industrial unrest. "We have had strikes before, but never have I known of the miners stopping the pumps when they strudk, as they did last week, I read. Do you realize what that means? It means not only a loss of all the coal on band but serious harm to the deeper field, and godness knows when the mines will be workable again. This aetlon is unprecedented and gives warning of a serifcus undercurrent." A workable league of nations will cause a great change in the running of thi world and will do away with a preat deal of the "nastiness" of lnternatl6nai relations, Mrs. Whitney thinks. "With all her foreign coal fleldr,.

her diamond fields and other possessions ruled by the Joint powers of the warld what reason would EnrUnH

have for wanting to rule one-lfth of

me worm r wm not this cause a slow dissolution of vast possessions as the disappearance 6f a mist with the coming of the sun I think it would, and

"I do not agree with the Monroe doctrinist. If America does not enter into a league of nations with the other powers of the world she will loose tremendously in prestige, in power,
