STUNG
By THOMAS ARKLE CLARK
Dean of Men, University of
Illinois.
TWAS ten, I suppose, and the pup
and I were wandering across the
dry stubble of prairie grass. I was
picking my way cautiously in a vain
endeavor to save my bare feet from
the sharp ends of the dead weeds. The
pup young, curious, and unsophisti
cated waa making wide excursions in
all directions, scaring Up a Bock of
quails or nosing in a gopher's hole. 1
was carrying a jug of water to the men
In the hayfield ; the pup was intent on
new experiences.
We had not gone far until we came
upon a bumblebees' r.est buried under
the prairie sod. The bees were not
in a good humor. They were buzzing
about petulantly, and, remembering
former experiences, I veered to one
side. The pup was fascinated, lie
showed interest, but with head erect
he kept at first at a safe distance.
Then, his curiosity getting the better
of him, he drew nearer. A hoary,
obese bumblebee made a pass at hiin,
and he ran yelping to my heels.
The temptation to see something
new was too great for him, however,
and not heeding my voice, he went
slowly back, stuck his nose into Die
hole, nnd was stung.
It was a sad little pup, With a limp
tail and a wry, distorted countenance,
that trptted dejectedly anil thought
fully at my heels as we wended our
way back from the hiiytields. He had
sought and found adventure, he had
seen the world, he had hau experi
ence, but he bad paid dearly for it.
His is an experience not confined
to young and venturesome dogs. It
ll characteristic of youth. The '
young fellow, curious, tager, Inox- !
perienced, full of vitality linds it
hard to avoid the bumblebees' nest
There is the temptation to grow wise,
to see a little of life, to approach near
enough to those untried dingers to
tatisfy curiosity and yet not to be
stung. Eew boys expect to come out
of these derelict excursions any the
worse for the experience; they want
only to see, but he Is the rare excep
tion who does not ultimately feel the
sting of shame and disg'-ace, and phys
ical pain.
The girl who is eager to be a good
fallow who Is out for a lark, and who
laughs nt conventionalities, is run
ning into the bumblebees' nest. She
will hardly be able to keep herself
from criticism, from vulgar, cheap
comment, from the sting of a tar
nlshed reputation.
It is a foolish pup that sticks Ids
nose Into a bees' nest.

ALLIED DIPLOMATS
MEET AT VERSAILLES
America Is Represented and
Reparations Claims Will
Be Pressed.
DOCTOR CADMAN
Notice For Publication
Paris. The famous clock room in
the French foreign office, where Wood
row Wilson, Georges Clemenceau and
their fellow peacemakers prepared the
treaty of Versailles, assumed the as
pect of treaty-making days Wednes
day, when the allied and American
diplomats and ministers met there to
settle some of the conflicts of the
peace. It Is the general opinion that
tjf.e discussions will furnish a few
sessions that may surpass in warmth
some of the liveliest meeting of the
big five.
The demand of the American gov
ernment for a share in the proceeds
of the Dawes plan as a means of
paying American reparations claims
and the cost of the occupation of the
Coblenz bridgehead will come up early
in the proceedings.
American reparations claims are
estimated at $350,000. For purposes of
discussion of the American demand
for a share of the Dawes plan receipts,
this amount with $255,000,000 which
the American occupation cost brings
the total claim of the United States
to $600,000,000. The American dele
gati3n will have the support of France,
Italy and Belgium.
Ambassador Kellogg at London, Am
bassador Herrick at Paris and Colonel
James A. Logan, unofficial observer
of the reparations commission, were
appointed as the American representa
tives to the financial conference.

MELLON GETS FRENCH
NOTE ABOUT DEBTS
Washington, D. C. The French
memorandum regarding payment of
France's war debt to the United States
was transmitted by Secretary Hughes
to Secretary Mellon.
Secretary Mellon becomes heir to
this much discussed document by vir
tue of his position as head of the debt
funding commission, authorized by
congress to receive and act upon all
offers of settlement by debtors.
Inasmuch as the document was pre
sented by M. Clementel, French fi
nance minister, to Ambassador Herrick
as an unofficial and private communi
cation, the state department officials
would make no comment on the sug
gestions embodied in it.
The memorandum is understood to
contain reference to a settlement plan,
including a moratorium, with payment
over eighty years from the time the
moratorium expires, and interest pay
monts during the moratorium period
at the rate of one-half of 1 per cent.
Portland, Or. A. L. Mills, president
of the First National Bank of Port
land, who was president of the Direct
Primary league, which gave Oregon
the direct primary, has prepared addi
tions to the law which provide for
post-primary nominating conventions
in certain cases. This measure will
be introduced in the senate and house
at the coming legislative session.
This proposal of Mr. Mills is the
first studied effort to cure some of
the alleged evils which have develop
ed under the direct primary since the
adoption of the Oregon system in 1804,
It provides that conventions, county,
district and state, are to be held fol
lowing the regular party primary elec
tions and that all candidates receiving
40 per cent or more of the party vote
at a primary election are to be im
mune from the jurisdiction of the con
ventions, but candidates who fail to
receive 40 per cent or more of the
total party vote, shall be certified,
upon their request, as candidates be
fore the convention, there to take their
second stand against each other or
against, new candidacies put into nom
ination from the floor.
