(Havas Agency) France cannot yield on the question of obtaining adequate reparation from Germany, the Matin declares in an editorial today dealing with the situation regardig the French claims. "On all territorial questions a satis factory agreement is being reached," the Matin says, "but concerning the: reparation question there is still a gap between what we are offered and what we justl ydemand. "The French government will be unyielding in this manner. It can not sign a treaty which will mean h bankrupt of France." In leading up to this declaration the Matin notes that the French, British and American people are still displaying the same friendly feel ing as heretofore for one another. Soak mildewed garments in sour milk and let dry in the sun without rinsing. The stains come out. Hickory will erect an arch as part of the welcome decorations in hon or of the Catawba soldiers and sail ors. This was decided upon last night at a meeting of the various celebra tion committees at the Chamber cf Commerce and a sufficient fund, prob ably $500, was voted from the treas ury to pay the cost. The meeting was presided over by Mr. Hugh D'An na, chairman of the general commit tee, and representatives of ether com mittees were on hand ,and discussion was general. There was some sentiment to put the money that will be required to build the arch in something more per manent, but nobody could suggest what that should be. The whole matter was threshed out and it was the determination of all to redouble , their energies against the arrival of the local company, when the jubilee ; win . held. Parents and relatives of soldiers who enlisted in Hickory or who were called to the colors from Catawba county will be given to understand that they were in the celebration. Invitations will be sent to the offi cials of towns near-by .especially those places which contributed men to the cause, and it is hoped they will be much in evidence. Families of these men also will be urged to at tend. S CLUB With Mrs. J. W.
