TILLAMOOK HEADLIGHT JULY 3, 1919. PEACE 18 SIGNED; GREAT WAR ENDS. -------- o-------- German» Put Signatures to Document Firat. VERSAILLES, June 28-World peace was signed and sealed in the historic ball of mirrors at Versailles this afternoon, but under circum stances which somewhat dimmed the expectations of those who had work ed and fought during long years of war and months of negotiation» for its achievement. The absence of the Chinese delega- tea, who at the last moment were unable to reconcile themselves to the Shantung settlement, and left the eastern empire outside the form of purviews of peace, struck the first discordant note in the assembly. A written protest which General Jan Christian Smuts lodged with his signature was another disappoint ment to the makers of the treaty. Germans Resentful at Last. But, bulking larger, was the atti tude of Germany and the German plenipotentiaries, which left them, and evident from the original pro gram of the day and from the expres sion of Mr. Cremenceau, still outside any formal reconciliation and made actua! restoration to regular re la- tions and intercourse with the allied nations dependent, not upon the sig nature of the "preliminaries of peace” today, but upon ratification by the national assembly. To M. Clemenceau’s stern warning in his opening remarks that they Would be expected, and held, to ob serve the treaty provisions legally and completely the German delegates through Dr. Hanlel von Hainihausen, replied after returning to the hotel that had they known they would be treated on a different status after signing than the allied representa- lives, as shown by their separate ex it before the general body of the conference, they never would have signed.

The actual ceremony was far short er than had been expected, in view of the number of signatures which were tc be appended to the treaty and the two accompanying cove nants, ending in a bare 49 minutes after the hour set for the opening. The proceedings were carried on without surface incidents. The sole words to be recorded in the protocol of the conference were M. Clemen ceau’s short opening allocution, with it brief, stern warning to the Ger mans and his terse phrases declaring the ceremony closed. Then vengence for the disgrace of| 1919!”. I The Tageblatt says: i “The German people reject the treaty which its i delegates are sign- ing today, and it : does not believe for a single moment, that it will endure. Despite the fact that it is written on parchment, it remains a 'scrap of pa per,’ because it is a mockery of all the laws of reason and morals and the most disgraceful exhibit in the museum of civilization.” PRICE REDUCED FORDSONS Smiles.

Make sure of getting your Fordson. Order it now. Start it to work for you right away. There are sufficient draw-bar and belt jobs on your farm to be done between now and fall to keep the Fordson’busy earning money for you, throughout the summer. And when fall comes, you will have your Fordson ready for the first fall job. You will be familiar with its operation, so that you will get 100 per cent results throughout the year. --------o-------- The Fordson will put two 14-inch bottoms in the stiffest soils and still have enough reserve left over for the peak loads. The Fordson operates successfully, economically, on cheap kerosene. No raw fuel going through the exhaust—none passing down through the piston rings into the crankcase. And its 22 H.P. in the belt make it capable of running your grain separator, your com husker, your huller, your silo filler, hay baler; in short, it supplies a steady, ecotiomial, dependable power for all belt jobs within its rating.

These boots will keep your feet and legs dry and warm. Comfort, economy, durability —these are the qualities that make “U. S.” the best boots for you. U. S. “Prctected” rubber boots stand the hardest tests of service. They are built for double-duty, reinforced where the wear is greatest. The Gov ernment probably used more U. S. “Protected” rubber boots during the war, than of all the other makes combined. It is said that the United States will have to endorse polygamy if it accepts a Turkish mandate. Very well. If Uncle Sam commits a biga mous alliance with Europe in com pliance with the league of nations ritual, an endorsement of polygamy shouldn't be at all inconsistent. Every pair of “U. S.” bears the “U. S. Seal”—trade mark of the largest rubber manufacturer in the world. Look for this seal when buying rubber boots.
