BELGIUM ASKS OPEN GERMAN FRONT LINE BY FRANK E. MASON I. N. S. Staff Correspondent PARIS, April 19—Former war minister Louis Barthou of France, chairman of the inter-allied reparations commission, and M. Delaeroiz, are working out a schedule to show the minimum amount of reparations that France and Belgium will accept from Germany. Belgium believes her economic life requires an open frontier between Belgium and Germany, but officials are afraid of possible consequences if French troops are thrown into this district. Both Belgium and Germany are anxious that Great Britain retain her army of occupation at Cologne. Recent reports from Germany are disquieting to the French. French and Belgium politicians feel they require absolute victory for home opinion. They have definitely announced that Germany must give in before Paris and Brussels will be satisfied.

RAP PENSION BOARD The attitude of the Santa Ana Pension Board in refusing applications for aid from Spanish American war veterans was criticised sharply by Scoutmaster Robert H. Lee at Brea, where the Boy Scouts entertained Calumpit Camp and Auxiliary. Lee conducted a drill with the Scouts, a tug of war and the setting up exercises of the Army and then put the camp and auxiliary through the exercises. Other speakers included Superintendent Fanning of the Brea schools, a veteran of the Spanish American war; Glenn Brookins, editor of the Brea Progress, and M. C. Cooper, officer of the day. Cooper was elected as an additional delegate to the department at Riverside and Comrade D. J. Donnelly of Anaheim as alternate. An equal standard for veterans of all wars was the topic of a speech by the Junior Vice Commander, who referred to the work of the legislative committee at Washington, headed by the Commander-in-Chief. In his speech on the pension matter, Lee voiced his belief that few if any of the men of 1898 are 90 per cent as good physically as when they enlisted. The pension law referred to provides for a pension for Vets 10 percent disabled from doing manual labor, but the attitude of the local Pension Board seems to be that if a man is working all the time he is not entitled to be pensionsized. Dr. Seager, President of the Los Angeles Pension Board and Surgeon General of the U. S. W. V., speaking at Long Beach recently, said that his board had examined over 2500 applicants for pensions, under the above law, and had only turned down one and that 83 per cent of those examined had been granted pensions. Comrade Lee contracted those statements with the results of being examined by the local board where but two, so far as he could find out, had been granted pensions out of the many examined here.

SELIG ANIMALS AT ORANGE SHOW Lions, panthers, tigers and members of that interesting family from which man is believed by some to have sprung, will be in a huge cage in the Amusement Department of the Third Annual California Valencia Orange Show to be held May 22-30 inclusive. These valuable quadrupeds are the property of Clonel W. N. Selig and have been used in motion pictures ever since the time Kathlyn Williams' earlier appearance in 1911 when she repeatedly tracked down in the jungles of East Los Angeles by several of these lords of the desert. The value of these animals can be imagined when it is stated Colonel Selig has received as much as $300,000 in rentals and profits for their use. They will constitute a great show in the midway among the other attractive offers. Escondido Chamber of Commerce is coming into the show with some exhibits of their finest Valencias and lemons. A visit there Tuesday afternoon by Malcolm A. Fraser resulted in this decision. It was at first thought by the Escondido Board of Directors that they would compete in the feature classes but the fact that they had never perpared a large feature exhibit and the further fact that the fourteen feature spaces have nearly all been engaged already, has changed their plans. Escondido is the center of a constantly increasing acreage of Valencias and lemons, the former being splendid specimens in comparison with the best fruit of more widely known districts. It takes two packing houses to ship the product of the Escondido Valley. GIVEN CERTIFICATES Fourteen Anahaim H. S. students were given certificates showing that they belonged to O. G.

The beauty of a linen carpeted floor —as shown in this office featured in this week's Saturday Evening Post The office of Mr. Julius Barnes, President of the great Barnes-Ames Company, New York, is shown here just as it was featured in this week's Saturday Evening Post. It is carpeted with Klearflax. This office shows the handsome effect of spaciousness which all-over carpeting is capable of giving to a room. Even in small rooms, it imparts a dignity and roominess quite distinctive. Its deep-padded quiet and the fact that it is so easy to keep clean, with no labor and expense of finishing floors, are advantages of which decorators are taking serious account.

Even in small rooms, it imparts a dignity and roominess quite distinctive. Its deep-padded quiet and the fact that it is so easy to keep clean, with no labor and expense of finishing floors, are advantages of which decorators are taking serious account. And a Klearflax carpeted floor has special beauty and practical value. For Klearflax has all the unique qualities of linen. It has the rare linen color values in single tones and Picwick mixtures. It has the wonderful wearing ability of linen in its heavy, thick, flat lying body. And again like linen, its new roughness becomes softer and silkier with use. Because a Klearflax carpeted room is very practical as well as beautiful, Klear-flax is being chosen everywhere for use in homes, offices and public buildings. It is economical too.
