Patrolman Reynolds picked him up earlier in the day at the Gates Avenue Station of the B. M. T. A woman--whose French won the old rover's strong condemnation--tried to talk to hime and, failing, point- ed him out to the policeman.

When as an interpreter, first for the Bri- tish and then for the American troops. After the armistice he re- mained in France, He is a build- ing contractor in Lille.

WOMAN IN A MONOCLE ASTONISHES PEOPLE Vancouver, B.C., April 25.-- The ultimate im social distinction has reached Vancouver. A woman with a m le has astonished British Columbia society. Mrs. Grant Morden, wife of Colonel Grant Morden, Anglo- Parliament had the honor of in- troducing the feminine monocle to the Far West. To say that she created a sensation is putting it mildly. In Vancouver's forty-five years of existence only seven monocles had been seen here, not including transients. And the men who wore them were held to be exceedingly courageous. Mrs. Grant Morden is a daugh- ter of Mrs. Julia Henshaw, an au- thority on wild flowers, and has been hete wisiting her mother: In addition to wearing the mon- ocle, with .its gold setting and broad black silk ribbon, she dis- tinguished herself by being couver to London.

Disbelieves Prophesies "I really cannot believe that the people of either country will be 80 blind as that. No one will surely ever risk a war unless the prospects of ultimate advantage are believed to be greater than the risk incurred. But when it is a pros position or ordinary common busi- ness sense, as in. this case, I wholly decline to believe in the prophee cles of those who foresee war aris- ing out of trade rivalries."

He quoted trade statistics to the effect that the United States export trade with the eight major units of the British Empire ex- ceeded $2,000,000,000 last year and that American citizens today have about $4,000,000.000 invested in British territories, being nearly one-third of the total American in. vestments abroad.
