BIRTHS The stage playing is still going on at Genoa and it seems to be a. ques- tion of endurance on the "part of Lloyd George, who alone, seems to be the master of the situation. Rus- sia. still has under arms about a million men. and France has aJbout the same. The Russian situation is the key to the whole, and until something` is done. `there is little hope of restoring Europe's economic chaos. France suspects` Germany and distrusts Russia, and the -task of reconciling all the jarring inter- ests at Genoa devolves upon Lloyd George. He has accomplished mar- vels, but it seems that Genoa is al- most too much for him. It will the impossible to reach an ideal agree- ment, but Lloyd George may -be trusted, perhaps more than any other man, to discern what is pos- sible and what is impossible. De- spite all rumors we are condent that this parley will register at least one step towards a more settled Europe and a more harliioniffs world. _A number of the local dentists are attending the Dental Convention in Toronto this week. 1 ):-nun:-nnna v1Ft\ Mnhun .vu..A.. rsvu Lucy :suru nave Luu pep.
