JOFFRE, BACK HOME, PAYS TRIBUTE TO U.S.

(By Associated Press.? "PARIS. May. 9. Marshal .Joffre spent the first, morning after his return to France from his world tour at his headquarters at .the war college greeting his: friends. 'He ."Jll; be re? ceived by both President Millerand and Premier Potncare later in - the week to give an account of his travels. . ;-:'. ,v- .. - Speaking to The Associated Press, the hero of the Marne, said: "Throughout my '30,000 miles of travel I everywhere received a most

cordial welcome, butit remained for America to outdo every other country

dame Joffree, our daughter and I re

turn our deepest thanks to . all who

made our Journey across , the Amer

able. We should love to make .the

trip all over again."

Madame Joffre said she had kept a

diary duringjthe entire journey around the globe, but that events in the Unit

ed States came so thick and fast Bhe did not have time to record them. "Your hospitality and prodigality were unbounded," she eaid. "In addition to the precious remembrances which were brought back, we received hundreds of gifts and mementoes from various cities and . states. These I shall place in a museum which I have just started, and my diary will be a written record of their meaning. One of my most prized possessions is a copy of the memoirs to General Grant, autographed by his grandson."

BUSINESS MEN TO

MEET WEDNESDAY

Wednesday noon begins the work

of the Sunday campaign with the business and professional men of Richmond. '

At a luncheon at the Y. M. C. A. at

noon, Fred Rapp, business manager

for the Sunday party and in charge

of that phase of the campaign, will outline the objects of the meeting, and

the men gathered there will decide

upon the number of meetings a week

to be held, the place of meeting and

other details.

To a certain extent the meetings

will . resemble those of the business

women at the Reid Memorial church, but probably will be in session nearly every , noon of the week.

Just what the Business Men s Noon

Luncheon, as the meeting is called, will undertake, will depend to a certain extent on the men themselves. Mr. Rapp .stated that he was hopeful that some real good could be accom

plished as a result of the series. In many places the meetings have been continued after the tabernacle

clubs. It was such a club that was the

nucleus of the delegation that Charleston, W. Va., sent to Richmond Sunday

to hear Rev Sunday preach. ,

METHODIST NIGHT

AT BIG TABERNACLE

Methodist are planning to march in

a body Tuesday evening to the tabernacle. While the members of the Grace M

E. church are to meet at the home of Clarence Kramer, 1402 East Main street, the members of the other churches, and the out-of-town delega

tions are to meet at the First Methodist church.

."We are trying to make thi3 a real community gathering of the Methodists " said Rev. R. W. Stoakes. who is

in charge of the gathering. "We have not Invited the churches from a distance, as we want this meeting to represent the Methodists of Richmond and of the immediate vicinity." The Presbyterians will be at the tabernacle on Wednesday night, and the Baptists, the United Brethrens and the Christians on Thursday night.

your thought should be, what can I do to take that man and woman to heaven with me? Oh, I get so sick and nause

ated I want a soda mint to settle my stomach. I repeat, your problem should

not be just simply the "not" and "don't," that's the negative, that's only

half. That's why the church is not a

power, she is nothing but the negative side. Some of you never get up and give testimony In public, some of you never pray, some of you never do anything under God', heaven but go to church on Sunday morning and look pious for

half an hour. So .therefore, don't simply concern yourself about preventing that man or woman, by your side, from dragging you to the devil that's half of it, but then concern yourself, what can I do to take that man or woman to heaven with me? That's the positive side of itk Add that and see what a force you will be In this old universe.

Jesus was no aesthete no, no! His

goodness was not of the hot-house variety no, no, no! It was robust, redblooded, my friends, Jesus Christ did

te a Christian doesn t demand that 1 1 run away from the world, hide in a monastery or hide behind the stone walls of a church on Sunday morning or lock myself in my pew, my friends no, no! Not on your life! Religion Stands For Action Religion consists in something more than pushing you down a carpeted aisle into your pews on Sunday morning, when you can come whenever you please. Then you keep 'the crowds standing around in the vestibules waiting for you to come there before they can be seated. If you can't come when the rest of the bunch comes, let them sit down and you stand up. There Is nothing under heaven that breeds caste, that engenders it like that pew rental system of the church.

BAGDAD. April 10 King Feisal -has refused to sign terms presented to him by the British high commissioner intended to prohibit demonstrations in favor of abolishing the British mandate over Mesopotamia, In addition he has decreed the organization of a constitutional assembly which is intended to have final-say. in the management of the county's affairs, both international and external. v "Mesopotamia's relations with other countries," said a proclamation by the king, "will from now on he based on such principles . as those upon which all independent states are established. We Arab9 hate to submit to any. foreign authority. We formerly . hated the Turks and we are not 'going to accept another bondage now." All this is indicative of the great un

rest which prevails throughout the i country. Last year the British govern-1 ment officially recognized Feisal as king and agreed that the relations of the country with England should be only treaty relations. The British, however, still retain their mandate, abolition of which they contend is contingent on the consent of all the allied powers. Another disturbing factor has been the refusal of the high commissioner to replace officials with Indians, in accordance with an agreement. The differences between the king and the; commissioner are regarded as serious and rumors are heard that England is sending a large military force to assure control of the country. Agitation is at a high pitch: and frequent meetings are held at which the crv is heard:. "Down with the' man

WASHINGTON, D. C, May 9 That Washington may soon win the title ot Convention City Is the prophecy of some old inhabitants. They say. that convention meetings in the National Capital grow in size and number every year. No one keeps an official record of the organizations and their delegates that visits the city, but according to

street car conductors, White House guards, and watchmen In the Government buildings, this spring is proving a record breaker for delegations. There is no season of the year when Washington is not entertaining visitors who have gathered from the ends of the country to discuss by-laws and election of officers and to take a look at the Government in action. But spring is the most favorable time for seeing Washington, and therefore spring always brings an unusually large assortment of convention followers. The Capital with- trees bursting into pale green, its cherry blossom drive along the tidal basin, and its gay flower beds, is at its best. La

ter, Washington settles down to hot weather though the Chamber of Com

merce never admits it, and now and then displays impressive statistics and comparative reports of the Weather Bureau showing that the Capital with its 105,000 trees, its 6,000 acres of parks, a'nd its river breeze is not so hot as it sometimes represented. In spite of these encouraging bulletins, spring continues to be fashionable convention season in Washington. . ,. - Already, this year, The Daughters of the American Revolution and the Daughters of 1812 have advanced upon Washington with fluttering badges. The League of American Penwomen has gathered together its collection of literary notables and celebrated its twenty-fifth anniversary with a book fair, breakfast, carnival ball, and other functions. And with less pomp

people pour into the White House during the hours when the state rooms are open to the public. One guard said that it was not unusual for 100 or even 200 people to come along just at closing time and explain anxiously that this was only chance to see where the President lived. The President and Mrs. Harding sturdily withstand the strain of greet

ing the numerous delegations. The President and his wife have to learn to minimize fatigue in observing the

democratic custom of shaking hands! with long lines of strangers. Mrs. Harding, for instance, uses her left hand when her right grows weary at state receptions, and all officials learn to grasp the callers hand first and pass him along with a dexterous sweep of the wrist so that the next person in line can move up without undue delay. Efficient Hanflshaklng The amount of efficiency that can be, and is, injected into the simple rite of shaking hands is best realized

when some foreign official provides a contrast. At the Army and Navy reception, not long ago, Marshall Joffre and Madame Joffre joined the receiving line, along with the President, Mrs. Harding and the Secretaries of War and Navy and their wives. The Marshal was clearly pleased with the compliment extended him, but after a little more than an hour of constant bowing, smiling, and hand wringing, he and Madame Joffre surrendered to their weariness and dropped out of the receiving line. The others in the line still had half the evening's work ahead of them. The White House is the Mecca of delegations to Washington, but Congress and the Capitol would put up a stiff fight in. a popularity contest. It is the statesmen and the historic features of the Capitol which most interest visitors. Unless some bill of

unusual interest is being debated, five

CHRISTIAN NIGHT Thursday night is Christian night, and the members of that church are making plans to let Richmond know that they are on the earth on that day.

Special delegations have been announced from the following places: New Paris, Whitewater, Bethel, Centerville, Jacksonburg, Green's Fork. Cambridge, Milton, Dublin, New Lisbon, Newcastle, Mt. Summit, Springport and many other places. Present plans for the assembling of the delegations between 7 and 7:15 in front of the tabernacle, when the members of the church will be given badges to wear.

eral other scientific groups have been

conferring in odd corners of the city between banquets and important sessions of sightseeing. Serious Sightseeing Sightseeing is a serious business for the visiting delegate. There is a combination exposition, circus, state fair, and liberal education perpetually available in the Government buildings. There is the cultural benefit to be derived from hearing the roll call in the Senate, and there are great opportunities for exercise. Anyone walking up the 900 steps of the Washington monument has to admit that there's nothing exactly like it anywhere either for reducing or for breath control. Then, too, nowhere else are there

such chances of hobnobbing with the

great. There are famous folk on dis

play in other cities but strangers are

distinctly discouraged from trying to

about enough for most visitors,

One elderly woman safely out of the breathless gallery atmosphere of the

august Senate, remarked that time

was certainly more plentiful than money with those droning statesmen. After this commentary on the Senate's

speed, the delegate squeezed into a crowded elevator and audibly plannea to "get in the museum, Mt. Vernon, Arlington, and the Treasury by 6-o o'clock." Washington sometimes wonders when conventions find time to convene so busy are the badge wearers with guide books, street car connections and "hours open to the public." Up to now, Washington has bad to admit that its inadequate assembly halls were no attraction to conventions. The small and middle-sized halls about the city have sometimes failed to ex

Accordingly, celebrities in Washington can generally be counted on to go through their stunt of . shaking hands and registering delight for convention parties.

President's Harding is building up

a reputation as a handshaker. It is estimated that he shook hands with more than 8,000 people in two weeks around Easter. On several days he grasped 1,600 hands and smiled 1,600 times. Other days there was a slump to 400 or 500 visitors, due to the pres

sure of presidential business rather than to a falling off in the number of

callers at the White House.

The D. A. R. hall for Instance never holds all the Daughters who would like to attend sessions at the same time. Yet it was the largest suitable hall available for the important disarmament conference, and consequently few outsiders were able to gain admission to any of the historic sessions. Plans are under way now, however, for an auditorium which will seat 5,000 people. The new auditorium building is to be thoroughly modern. Since the Williard Hotel ballroom, on the tenth floor, caught fire the other day, there has ben strong agitation for first floor auditoriums in Washington. The new assembly hall will be on the first floor, with an exhibit hall beneath, partly below grade level. This build

ing is to be located opposite the In

terior Building, three blocks from the

White House, and ground will be

broken for it next month. With an adequate convention hall, Washington believes that nothing will stand between it and the title of America's convention city.
