I. Some Jugs are Jars
II. No Jugs are Containe

Few Jars are Mugs (I) + No Mugs are Jugs (E) → Some Jars are not Jugs (O). Hence conclusion I does not follow. All Jars are Container (A) → Conversion → All Container are Jars (A) + Some Jars are not Jugs (O) → No conclusion. Hence conclusion II does not follow.
