Hostilities Between Germany arid France Are Said to Be Im minent Danger. Princeton, N. J. A future war be tween France and Germany can be avoided only if the United States em ploys its good offices to relieve the tension now existing in Europe, said John Grier Hibben, president of Princeton university, in an interview Sunday. President Hibben recently re turned from an extended trip through urope, where he studied conditions in several countries at first hand. Germany, he is convinced, is play ing a "waiting game." Her attitude toward reparations is insincere and she feels that if she waits long enough time will operate in her favor. "I did not find any evdience of poverty or unusual distress in Ger many. The stream of population pass ed before me much as it appeared in the days of 1912, the time of my last visit to Berlin. I learned, however, that there was suffering, confined al most exclusively to a certain class in Germany. "The class whose incomes are fixed amounts in marks and for which no adjustment can possibly be made to keep pace with the fall in value is the class which suffers most. "Much money is being rapidly made and lavishly spent by all who are en gaged In industrial pursuits, and the profits are deposited in large amounts in foreign banks in Switzerland, Eng land and New York and investments made in foreign securities. "It is a significant fact that dur ing the last eight months Germany has been the heaviest buyer of cotton from our country, paying more than $72,000,000 for it, and is also the heav iest buyer of copper, her importation amounting to something more than $17,000,000. It is a mystery where this money comes from, but it is evidence that Germany is not insolvent and cannot be regarded in any sense as a bankrupt nation." Regardless of the Ruhr, Mr. Hibben said, Franco-German relations will he strained for some time to come unless America intervenes. Germany be lieves the French are in the Ruhr with the intention of staying but Frame piot e ,t s she will leavo when repara tions are paid. Dr. Hibben continued in part: " met a representative of our Uni- teil Males government wno Had travel ed extensively In middle Kurope and the near east. He brutally told me that Kurope was a 'barrel of rotten apples and that the United States could well afford to keep her hands oft'.' Those who are complacent with this policy must bo ready to face an other European war in which we will be directly and indirectly involved." THE LOST MOUSE "XCE there was 1 white mouse w ho traveled with a circus. Ho had pink eyes and long white whiskers nnd be belonged to a clown. When the clown was walking about the ring of the circus he would pull the white mouse out of his pocket and let him run up and down his sleeve and pie tend to be very much afraid of the mouse, and the mouse would pretend to bite his ear and they wore very happy together. All the children used to laugh and shout when they saw the tiny thing on the arm of the clown, and the people In the back rows would crane their necks und try to see what was happening away down below. But one day the white mouse slid through a hole In the pocket of the clown's ragged coat and got lost. He looked and looked for his friend, the clown, but he could not find him, so he set out in the world for himself. He ran across the circus ring and frightened the big elephants nearly Into fits, then he ran faster and faster "I Am Going to Speak to Him." along the sawdust ring and at last came to the edge of the tent under the rows of seats. Outside the tent was the great world which the white mouse had always wanted to see for himself. The great world was so big that It frightened the little white mouse. "My goodness," he said, "the sky is even farther away than the roof of the circus tent. Isn't that funny?" And he went on whistling to himself through his long white whiskers, to keep up bis courage. Before long he came to a house though he did not know what It was "What a queer brown thin;;, bigger than an elephant," he said to himself, stopping bis whistle in amazement. "Now 1 wonder v hat's the use of that?" He was s brave little white mouse, so he harried te Bad cut what the bin brown thing was. for he had never been Inside a novae, Luckily for him there was no dog and no cat In the house, for he quite forgot to be care ful. In front of the big brown house there was big hole, which was a door, although he did not know It was a door. But he know that holes could be gone through, so to he wont. Inside the big brown house there lived s family of very well-behaved nice, brown, all of them, who never ! made k noise In the walls at night or nibbled the loaves of bread in the pantry. They were always on the watch for what was going on in the big house and so it happened they saw the white mouse Just as he came in the door and they nearly tumbled over them selves In their astonishment, for they had never before seen a white mouse. The brown mice crowded to the edge of the monsehole, peering at the white mouse and 1 expect they felt very much the way the poor Indians did when they saw a white man for the first time. At last one of the bravest of them said: "I am going to speak to him, he has whiskers Just like ours and a tall Just like ours und eyes Jut like ours; maybe he fell in the milk pan and could not get it washed off." "I don't believe that," said the sis ter of the brave brown mouse, her little nose wiggling in a funny way, "He looks white all the way through." When the brown mouse who was brave enough to speak to the stran ger said, "Can I do anything for you, sir?" in bis very grandest manner, little white mouse stared, for you see little white mouse had never seen Just an ordinary mouse before. But at last he got over his fright and brown mouse persuaded him to come into his wall home and when brave brown mouse's sister told white mouse how nice it was to live there he decided he would not try to find his way back to the circus tent. And so one night there was a wed ding In the walls of the brown house and little white mouse and pretty little brown mouse set up housekeep ing and some time you may be sur prised by seeing a white mouse run along close to the wall of the room where you happen to be sitting, and If you do, perhaps it will be one of the children who looks like its father, little white mouse, who ran away from the circus tent a long time ago.

Seldom does a deliberately foreign name receive such welcome or such permanent pop ularity. The Greek is responsible for the earliest source of Corinne, the name coming probably from Perse phone's title, "Kore," a maiden, which was applied to the Boetlan poetess, who won a wreath of victory at Thebes. But unlike many of the ancient fa vorites connected with the brightest lights of the old world, this nams persisted and when ambitious writers, eager for a heroine, delved Into early history, Corinna was salvaged and put into current use, Mine, de Stael cre ated the brilliant Corinne, heroine of the novel of that name, and Insured her Immortality. French damsels be yond number adopted the name, while in Italy, Corinna appeared in an early chronicle of the Middle Ajes relating the story of the lady best known as Rowena, daughter of IIniKliist.
