Allen, former commanding ol the American army of occupation, al dinner of the Peekskffl Military Academy alumni held in the Harvard Club, 7 east, Fortyfourth street, a few nights ago. , General Allen, who is a graduate of the academy, declared that he learned the fact from a talk that he had with Marshal Foch recently in a visit to Paris and from a conversation with Sir William Robertson who command ed the British Army of Occupation. He said that before the sigeing'of the armistice Marsha! Foch held a confer ence with Marshall Peiain, General Haig and General Bersbing. Accord ing to Genera] Alien the French high commander asked Haig firrt for his views as to how far forward the al lied forces should continue ard Haig said that there hr? been suf icient sacrifices of men and that the Germ ans were routed. When General Persh ing was asked his vie.vs, he said: “It is my opinion that 1 defer that decision to you as you mu.it live as their neighbor.” Petain said to Marshal Foch, “We have got them on the run—let us make the defeat more decisive.” Marshal Foch, said GerflPha! Allen, then dismissed his conferees and made his own decision.

He said th^t in his last visit to Paris he called on Foch and asked the reason why the drive had not been continued on to Berlin. “I said to Marshal Foch," snid Gen eral Allen, "that we made a mistake in not going to Berlin. Marshal Foch said to me that if we had our army or your army would not yet be demobi lised. He took out a map and showed me the Rhine and all the territory be tween there and Berlin. There would be a big responsibility, he said, in holding Hanover and all those cities. There was the answer from the re sponsible agent why we did not go on to Berlin. > There is n little piece of unwritten history,” he added. “My troops at the time of the armistice were farther in to Germany than any," lie concluded. —New York Times. Take Body From ' Coffin For Photo William Wilson, negro, died at his Danville home last Wednesday and, following the custom of his race, the funeral was decided upon for Sunday when it might be largely attended. In the immediate grief following her 'husband’s passing Rebecca Wilson did not discover until Sunday morn mg that she did not have a photo graph of her better half. She called the undertaker, and it was finally ar i anged that Wilson should be removed from his casket and tf photograph taken. News of the unusual undertaking spread beyond the immediatesconfines of the negro settlement of Camp Drove and at 2 o’clock several thou sand negroes stood at respectful dis tance away from the Wilson porch. Rebecca was anxious for as life like a picture as possible. She de manded, that the eyes closed for the ^ast long sleep be opened and she fur ther insisted that her husband be pic tured in a sitting posture.

Olbot flow Over Discoverer of America. Who did discover America, anyhow? Ramsey MacDonald would like to know. It is the first serious problem that has confronted the new British prime minister. It is freighted with grief and dynamite, for upon the cor rect answer depends the prideful peace of an important labor constituency. The mayor of Bristol put this vex ing conundrum up to the premier. Bristol’s feelings are badly lacerated. The Prince of Wales wants to hold a Pageant of Empire. He wants to show Columbus discovering America as nart of it. "But I ask you,” says the out raged may or, ✓ "how this can be the truth when John Cabot, sailing out of Bristol with a Briti^ ship end crew, reached North America a year before ! Columbus sighted land?” If Columbus gets, the credit, the good mayor avers, “it would be a historical inaccuracy which would cause great resentment in this historic city.” •* Mr. MacDonald might turn for ad vice in his difficulty to the Encyclo pedia Britannica, where there is an excellent article on. Cabot. It relates that “in the summer of 1493 news reached England that another Genoese Christopher Columbus had set sail westward from Spain and had reached the Indies.” Cabot, having received lettei-3 patenut from Henry VII, ad dressed to “well-beloved John Cabot, citizen of Venice,” in March, 1496, “set Gained Ten Pounds Mrs. George S. Hunter, of Columbus, Ga., says she suf fered severely with female troubles. . ‘1 had to go to bed and stay sometimes two weeks at a time,” says Mrs. Hunter. "I could not work.

My mother had been a^ user of The Woman's Tonic and she knew what a good medicine it was for this troub le, so she told me to get some and take it. I sent to the store after it and before I had taken the first bottle up I began to improve. My side hurt less and I began to mend in kealth. I took four bottles in all during the last ten months.

HOW TO GET RID OF CHICK WEED IN YOtTR GARDEN A very serious pest in the form of a viney weed is being seen in many gardens and in rich plates about homes. This weed is commoqly known as chick-weed and forms its seed in late winter and early spring* The seed lying dormant until the Allow ing fall. Practically the only known control at present is to destroy the - weed before it makes seed in the early spring by turning it under.
