ITALY ACCORDS '
PRESIDENT HONOR
[Continued from First Page.]
palnment of virtually one continu
ous roar of "vivas."
Wounded Soldiers Petition '
It was evident that the President
was much fatigued by the strain, ,
despite his enjoyment of the spec- 1
tacle. Of the many incidents of tho
visit perhaps the most touching was
the presentation by wounded sol-!
diers of a memorial favoring a I
League of Nations.
The principal speech delivered by
the President was at the municipal ;
reception where he reiterated that
the peace must be made in no special
interest. The President concluded
by saying that he had heard the
■ story of Italy's privations and sacri
fices in the war, and added:
"I take off my hat to the great
; people of Italy and tell them that
;my admiration is merged into friend
ship and affection.'
Replies to Milan's Mayor |
i In replying to the welcome of the 1
j mayor of Milan on behalf tot the
; municipality, the President said:
| "May I not say to you as the rep
resentative of this great city, that it
is Impossible for mc to put into
words the impressions I have re
ceived to-day. The overwhelming
welcome, the spontaneous welcome,!
I so evidently coming from the heart,
| has been profoundly moving to me, !
j sir, and I have not failed to see the <
I significance of that welcome. You |
I have yourself referred to It. I am as j
j keenly aware. I believe, sir, as any
j body can be that the social structure ;
: rests upon the great working classes 1
| of the world, and that those work- J
j ing classes in several countries of the '
world have by their consciousness
of community of interest, by their j
consciousness of community of spir
it, done perhaps more than any other ,
influence has to establish a world j
opinion which is not of a nation,
which is not of a continent, but Is [
the opinion,' one might say, of man- :
kind; and I am aware, sir, that;
those of us now charged with the !
very great and serious responsibility
of concluding peace must think, act'
and confer in the presence of this
opinion—that we are not masters of
tho fortunes of any nation but arc
the servants of mankind: that it is
not our privilege to follow special
interests, but it is our manifest duty
to study only the general interest.
"This is a solemn thing, sir, and
I here in Milan, where I know so much
of the pulse of international sym
pathy beats, I am g ad to stand iffr
and say that I believe that that
pulse beats also in my own veins,
and that I am not thinking of a
partlccular settlement.
"I am very much touched to-day,
sir .to receive at the hands of
| wounded soldiers a memorial in fa-
I vor of a League of Nations and to be
told by them what it was that they
I had fought for—not merely to win
this war, but to secure something
beyond, some guarantee of justice,
some equilibrium for the world as a
whole which would make it certain
] that they would never have to light
■ a war like this again.
Adds to Peace Obligation
I "This is an added obligation upon
|us who make peace. We cannot
■ merely sign a treaty of peace and go
home with a clear conscience. We

Any Broken Lens
Accurately Replaced
If you have broken your glasses
bring some of the broken parts
to me and I can accurately re
place them in a few hours.
It makes no difference whether
you were fltt 3d in Harrlsbburg or
any other city—if you have from
one-third to one-half of the lens
left I can determine the prescrip
tion to a certainty. I am provided
with scientific instruments so doli
cate and so accurate that they
will register any curvaturo or
plane; and by simply measur
ing a part of a broken lens It is
easy to make another exactly like
It. There will be absolutely no
difference between tho one I re
place and the original.
You can save time, trouble and
extra expense by bringing your
broken glasses to mo.
