"Lord Robert Cecil really seems to be surprised at the arbitrary, action of the League of Nations Council in refusing to deliver to the assembly the secret mandate drafts," says the Kansas City Times. "Lord Robert may be putting it on, of course, but in his protest against the position taken by the council he talks quite like a man who thought the league was going to practice a different kind of diplomacy from which nations have practiced since the art was invented. "" "If he believed that he must be a disappointed and disillusioned man, indeed. The statesmen who sit in the league council simply moved into

tnose cnairs irom cnairs in tne cnanceiiones ot their respective countries. They changed nothing but their skies. They are still diplomatists. Their motives are the same, their methods are

the same that they always were. The League of Nations is a governmental affair, and they know of no other way to run it and know no reason why they should run it otherwise than the way their own governments are run. . "It may be that the founders of the league had different notions, but if so it was supposed they had had time to get over them by now. The founders had an idea that nations would not make' secret treaties and secret military alliances if the covenant said they musn't, but nations did, just the same. Lord Robert knows that, surely. Yet he is pained because the council has some secrets it doesn't want the assembly to know. He ought to cheer up. The chances are the members of the council even have secrets from each other. If they haven't, they will have. "The unfortunate truth seems to be that the league hasn't yet repealed human nature, and probably it never will. Groups of interests will be formed within it just as groups of interests have been formed without. Everybody in the league is working for something, and if they suppose they have a better chance of getting it by working secretly, and combining with somebody who wants something else, that is the way they will work. There isn't anything surprising about it. The surprising thing is that so experienced a diplomatist as Lord Robert Cecil should seem to be surprised by it. But, as was said, maybe Lord Robert is just putting it on to try to make the league mend its manners."

Answers to Questions

Information Wanted What is cellulold made of and how is it made? A reply will instruct two friends who have disputed about it Celluloid is made of cellulose, which is the essential constituent of the primary wallmembrane of all cells. It rarely, if ever, exists in a simple condition unmixed with coloring or mineral matters. Cotton and the bleached fiber of flax and hemp are nearly pure cellulose contained in cotton cloth or raw cotton. The cotton is treated to a weak solution of nitric acid. This has the effect of making a pulp of cotton rery much like paper pulp After the acid has acted the pulp is treated to a copious water bath that in a measure washes out the cid. Then it goes through a partially drying process, and a large quantity of camphor gum is mixed with it, and it is rolled into sheets for the drying room, where It is dried in hot cylinders, the same aa paper is dried. It can be softened by steam, but hardens again when dry. Celluloid, when ready for the market, burns as readily as sealing wax. Readers may obtain answer to questions by writ Ids; the Palladium Questions and Answers department. All qnMttoss should be written plainly and briefly. Answers will be siren briefly.

v THE LOOKAFTERERS Somebody is always looking after you. You may not know It, but somebody is just the same. Benefits do not have limited journey. They keep going and going. Of course Mothers are the greatest Lookafterers in the world. That seems to be what they were primarily born for. But each of us becomes, in his turn, a Lookafterer also

just the minute that the interest of somebody else looms paramount to us.

When war came upon us wltn us cruel and merciless challenge, every boy who entered the fighting ranks became a Lookafterer for evreyone who had to stay at home. And everyone who stayed at home also becamo "a I ookafterer who backed the boy who had to go. '

Memories of Old Days In This Paper Ten Years Ago Today

Winfield J. Veregee, 54 years old, and John Estell, 60 years old, both well known local citizens, died. Mr. Veregge was born and raised in Richmond, and was an employee of Gaar, Scott and company.

The ructions, they are many, and fur is on the breeze; the cats of old Kilkenny were mild, compared with these, compared with peoples craving for blood, in ripples waving, in which they may be laving their fetlocks and their knees. Each nation has a boulder with which to swat a foe ; a chip is on each shoulder, inviting drastic blow; and governments are growling, and anarchists are howling, and "all the world is yowling, like tomcats in the snow. Is this the peace men prayed for before the war was done? Is this the peace men paid for with bloodshed by the ton? Is this the peace our brothers, our uncles and some others, forsook their wives and mothers to gather with the gun? At home we have our squabbles, disturb the peace

at times, while we pursue such baubles

as politics and dim-?s; but we don't stand berating, denoucing, roasting, hating the other nations, waiting a chance to pull some crimes. For which we 1 should be grateful, our thanks we should declare, when we've consumed a plateful of luscious Christmas fare; the bells of joy are ringing, and carol-folk are singing, and holly boughs are swinging, and peace is in the air. j I

"Yes, I finally got rid of him," she said, "without having to tell him in so many words that I never could learn to love him.
