Hear Signaller Tom Sheykill Richmond will have an opportunity next Wednesday of hearing one of the best war lecturers who has come to this city. Without a doubt, Signaller Sheykill, an Australian who has seen service on four fronts, is a speaker of rare ability, and with a message that goes straight to the heart. That part of our citizenship which heard him Sunday night and Monday afternoon agree in bestowing upon him the praise of presenting the war situation in a most graphic and straightforward manner. He presents facts. There is no exaggerated statement, no rhetorical appeal to the emotion. But his simple presentation, told with sincerity and conviction is eloquent in the extreme. His lecture at the Coliseum next Wednesday evening deserves a capacity patronage. The prices are twenty-five and fifty cents. The nominal admission fee is incommensurate with the vitalizing and inspirational effect of the lecture. Richmond has a great privilege in having Signaller Sheykill here. His speech will be a great stimulant to the Fourth of July celebration. If you want your vision of the war clarified and your patriotism fired, attend his lecture.

If you are a relative or close friend of some boy at the front, don't take it for granted that other people are writing him all the letters he wants to receive. Try to imagine how blue he will feel if he has reason to suspect that the people back home are losing interest in him. Write to him often and make your letters cheerful. .

War Hints War Helps War Duties Compiled and condensed for the Indiana State Council of Defense by George Ade. Remember, we are not saving wheat and sugar and beef products because we are stingy or hard-up, but because we are good sports who observe the rules in order to be loyal to our friends. Better mark it on the wall somewhere: "My individual ration is three pounds of sugar per month and not to exceed six pounds of beef and such a small portion of wheat flour that there is r.o use in trying to measure it." ''- The common barberry bush, which produces wheat rust, and the newspaper printed in the German language, conducive to hybrid Americanism, are being dug up and removed from the landscape. Beware of the "chain letter" scheme which pretends to be in partnership with the Red Cross but is not.

The Russian Situation From the Chicago Tribune. THE somewhat surprising reappearance of Gens. Komiloff and Kaledines In the Russian news 'should warn ua to move cautiously amid this astonishing Mast of rumor. It may be anything may be in Russia that the previous reports of Gen. Kornlloff's death and Gen. Kaledlne's suicide were "grossly exaggerated," but until the new rumors are verified in events it Is well to preserve a cautious skepticism. Mr. Louis Edgar Browne, a resourceful and well informed correspondent of our neighbor, the Daily News, has Just returned from Russia with a different picture of conditions there, and while he admits the possibility of quick changes, he warns against too easy acceptance of reports through Sweden and Switzerland. The caution Is obviously wise. This outbreak of sensational "news" may carry the truth of a sensational overturn or it may be, as Mr. Browne hints, an attempt to precipitate our government into a course of action profitable either to Germany or to the opposition parties In Russia. - Until our knowledge Is much clearer and more comprehensive than it is at the present moment, the government's refusal to act decisively will be accepted as wise, in spite of the growing recognition of the importance of decisive intervention of some character, whether merely diplomatic or military or both. The reports, opinions, and advice most available and most plentiful, it is well to keep in mind, are from such tainted channels as Switzerland and Sweden, where the German interest is strong, nd from Russian refugees, whos view of the Soviet regime can hardly fail to be colored by partisanism or interest. On the face of the reports we have assertions that the Germans have overthrown the Bolsheviki and set up the Romanoffs again in the person of the redoutable Nicholas. This is a most plausible rumor, for despite the fact that the Bolshevik regime seemed to be a heaven sent gift to the kaiser, the term of the co-operation, voluntary or forced, must necessarily be short. Such alliances cannot last. Germany has taken over the Ukraine and is engaged in a guerilla war with what remains of Russian popular resistance. This withholds, it is reported, half a million German troops in the east, and some military estimates are higher. We leave this out of account when we score the Bolsheviki. On the other hand, our own natural sympathy and confidence are directed toward the moderate parties. But while we might welcome the fall of Lenine as preliminary to the establishment of a system better calculated in our opinion to put Russia on the high road of political and industrial progress, we have no desire to see conservatism set up under the German helmet as it has been in Ukrania. We cannot but watch Russian developments with the utmost concern for the fate of Europe and the future of our own security. But critical as conditions are, we hope the government, while using every effort to inform itself reliably and comprehensively, to formulate a policy and to act upon it expeditiously, will protect itself from premature decisions despite the pressure of events undeniably alarming.

Moment

Former Governor Chase Osborn, of Michigan calls Uncle Hank Ford a "rubber stamp," but in spite of that "we can hardly believe that Uncle Hank, while he is a good guy and all that, will make an indelllble impression. If we thought it was any use, we would try to get into the intelligence department of the army. Now that we are permitted to know how many men we have in France, how many are going over each v.eek and what they are doing after they get there, we are a blamed sight happier than we have been in a year. Something will have to be done to keep our friend Enrico Caruso out of the poorhouse. He signed to appear In two motion pictures last week, aud will receive only $200,000 for the two. There's something the matter with that boy. He needs a business manager. The police of New York city will eliminate aU unnecessary noises. This does not include Doug Fairbanks, who is in New York only occasionally.

J IN NEU STOUIES In a south side street of this city lives a woman who, for optimism and .homely philosophy, takes rank with Mrs. Wlggs of the well known and Justly famous "Cabbage Patch " This woman, with her husband and family, was seated at the dinner table one day not long since, when a knock came to the door, and a friend called. "Won't you come in, for dinner?" the housewife invited. "Oh, no," the caller answered,' "you have such a large family yourself it would be a shame to put you to extra trouble." "Oh," was the cheery reply, "one more don't make a bit of difference. All I have to do is to put another cup of water la the slew." Yoangstowa.
