The Bolshevik Army Bolshevism in Russia is reported to have an army of a million trained men. Carl Ackerman, who has just returned to this country from an investigation of conditions in Russia, says the Bolsheviki are stronger today than they ever were, and that it is too late to conquer them.This comes as a surprise to most of lis who have been led to believe that the Bolsheviki were on the point of collapsing and that the conservatives were about to take over control of the country. 1 It seems that the Bolsheviki are rapidly gaining control over the whole country and that they must be reckoned with as a serious factor in the solution of the Russian problem. Instead of rapidly disintegrating, as was predicted, this social cancer is growing daily. All press dispatches are to this effect. Madame Breshkovsky, who was one of the old time revolutionists, but does not believe in Bolsheviki doctrine, says that she would recommend intervention by the allies if it is given for the establishment of a true democracy and is divorced of all selfish purposes. The Russian people fear intervention because they believe it Will mean curtailment of their freedom and the foisting upon them of institutions and principles ihich they do not want. This prejudice is deepseated and has been cultivated assiduously by Carman agents. If the allies believed they could escape dealing with the Bolsheviki in settling the Russian tremble, they .were greatly mistaken from the

very outset, because as Mr. Ackerman indicated, the Bolsheviki are the most powerful factor in Rus&ta at the present time. What success the allies will have in settling the Russian question in a conference of all the factions of that country remains to be seen. The Bolsheviki are only one factio n. Scores of other groups of men hate each

but also the happy faculty of minding it. Too many persons neglect their own business to give advice to men in other lines, to a detriment to their own affairs. All of us are acquainted with the busybody who is constantly venting his opinion about how a competitor or a friend should run his affairs. This type of man usually does not know how to conduct his own af fairs'successf ully. Observation shows that the successful man usually is the man who finds no time to give gratuitous advice to his neighbors and friends. The man who scatters his attention instead of concentrating it on his own business, will not get very far on the road to success. Intense concentration is required. A man must be a specialist nowadays to make a success of anything. The success of a man usually is in proportion to the faithfulness with which he applies the old maxim, know your business and mind it.

A Writer's Centenary The year 1919 marks the centenary anniversary of several leading American writers. In the period when New England was the intellectual center of the country, and when the national literary development was at its high water mark, these writers had as contemporaries such authors as Poe, Whittier, Emerson, Longfellow and Hawthorne. Following is a list of some of these eminent authors : . , James Russell Lowell was born on February 22, 1819, in Cambridge, Mass. He was a poet, essayist, critic and humorist ; first editor of the Atlantic Monthly, co-editor of the North American,

and United States minister to Spain and Great Britain. Julia Ward Howe was born in New York city May 27, 1819, and was the author of prose and poetical works, including the "Battle Hymn of the Republic." She also was a philanthropist, abolitionist and leader in prison reform and woman suffrage. Walt Whitman was born at West Hills, L. I., on May 31, 1819, and was a poet, essayist, jour

nalist and iconoclast. ' Thomas William Parsons, "The ' Poet," of Longfellow's "Tales of a Wayside Inn," was born September 3, 1819, in Boston, Mass. Susan Warner, author of "The Wide Wide World," said to be the most successful work of

The Principles of Organized Laboi

A committee of the Central Labor Council has submitted the following statement of the objects, purposes and principles for which organized labor stands to the Ministerial Alliance. .They are reproduced as an expression. of the .cardinal principles of labor: ( . 1. That in law and practice the principle shall be recognized that the labor of a human being is not a commodity or an article of commerce. 2. The right of free association, free assemblage, free speech and free press shall not be abridged. 3. That all men are entitled to a universal education, and to have time to pursue a coure to gain such necessaray knowledge. 4. That society should be regulated by representative and delegated authority, and that the basic principle upon which that society should be founded Is the golden rule; the basic principle of Christian ethics. 5. Organized labor declares that the basic work-day in industry and commerce shall not exceed eight hours. I 6. That no child should be employed at wage earning to the detriment of the child's health and the abridgment of his primary education. 7. That no woman should be employed on work ordinarily performed by men, unless it is of absolute necessity, and when they are emplc;ed, they must be allowed equal pay with men, and must not be allotted tasks disproportionate to their strength. x 8. In the fixing of wages, minimum rates of pay shall be established, which will insure the subsistence of the worker and his family in health and reasonable comfort, and that all wages should be commensurate to the cost of living, and that in the fixing of such wage scales regard should be had to the labor standards, and other standards and conditions prevailing in the communities or localities affected: Provided, however, that-swch fixing of wage scales are made through and by the system of collective bargaining. 9. The right of the worker to affiliate himself with any organization, the purpose of which is to benefit him as a laborer morally, physically, and economically. ' i 10. We stand for law and order and deprecate methods that will induce destruction of property or the loss of human life. 11. We hold that property Is a sacred trust, and that the possession of it-Is not detrimental to society when the possessor of such sacred trust acts in accord with justice to all, whether of high or low estate, for labor recognizes, as society is organized at present, that there is a supreme privilege in ownership if held in fee according to Christian ethics. These, dear friends are some of the cardinal principles for which organized labor are asking, and it is the hope of our Central Council that you will consider them, and after due consideration will lend us your Christian sympathy, and with a righteous desire to help humanity, will come to our aid in the City of Richmond, that the foregoing may be put in force and be proven of value to society in the future.

Bolshe viki, and are hated by them in-return.

The absence of a unanimity of opinion in Russia, plu s the dangerous doctrines of the Bolshe

viki, leads many observers to believe that Russia

must go through a period of internal strife, bloodshed and arson before peace can be restored there with any degree of success.

Know Your Business and Mind it This is an old adage that has been repeated countless tianes and written into many thousand copy books. The maxim presupposes knowledge of a business, trade ctr profession, which has been gained by study, observation or experience. Many young men hs.ve made a careful study of a business, trade or profession, but lack the experience

which older hUads have gained by contact with problems that present themselves daily. The old man virtually Jiad been thrown into the discard before the war, but the labor shortage brought him out of retirement and proved to the employer that many of the old gray-headed men possessed knowledge which the younger men lacked. When these old men got back into the harness, they quickly established themselves and made their worth felt. No one can succeed unless he knows his business well. Success depends upon knowledge, no matter how it is acquired. Knowledge of business not only is necessary,

Field, founder of. the cable which joined the Old WorM and the New, was born on November 30, 1819, in Stockbridge, Mass. Josiah Gilbert Holland, first editor of Scribner's Magazine and associate editor of the Springfield Republican, was born in Belchertown, Mass., July 24, 1819. Samuel Longfellow, brother of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, whose biography he wrote, was born in Portland, Me., June 18, 1819.

POINTED PARAGRAPHS

EASY TO CALL GERMANY'S BLUFF. Indianapolis News. Chancellor Ebert has sounded a warning against pushing Germany "too far"; but he doesn't define the limits or take any chances on predicting what will happen if they are passed. To the disinterested onlookerj the chancellor's warning would appear to be a mere hangover of the old style German bluff. As to what will happen, Germany will do as it is told, no more, no less.

THE ART OF HOMEMAKING

From the Kansas Cfiy Star.

E are beginning to make an effort to put house

beeping on a more or less scientific basis. We

have classes in cooking, in sewing, in decorat

ing. AH of these are necessary. But in connection with them a curious thing is observed. While a mastery of these subjects ought to be part of the equipment of the

housekeeper, yet it does not necessarily imply success in a more difficult though! related art the art of homemaking. The woman wlho can cook and sew and take

care of the house, sometimes finds herself baffled in cre

ating a home atmosphere. Now a home atmosphere is most readily defined by saying that it is the thing most noticeably absent in the ordinary dwelling places of families. Elbert Hubbard a few years ago called "home" "a place where you go to change your clothes to go homewhere." Improvement on this definition is hardly possible. Another way of getting at the definition is to recall the assertion of Lord Haldane to the German kaiser a couple of years before the war. Haldane was suggesting the need of curbing an aggressive nation by International pressure, and the kaiser asked him how lie could define aggressive armament "I don't know how many grains make a pile of Band," was the reply, "but there is no trouble in recognizing a sand pile." We all know what home atmosphere is, and we feel its lack even when we cannot tell precisely what is missing. The trouble seems to be that living conditiops have changed rapidly in the last generation with the development of transportation and amusements, and domestic living conditions have not developed correspondingly in many homes. The question becomes pertinent, how is the American home to be made a fair competitor with the variegated side Bhows of society that keep the youth of the cities continually "on the go" and the youth of the rural districts continually restless for the bright

When Were First Vegetables Sold in Market House

First a market house, then a Methodist church, then a Jail, and now a market house again. That is the history of the old building at Sixth and South A streets. Built' many years before the civil war, there are no records of the exact date, it was conducted as a markethouse, after the immemorial custom of town markets, until a few years before the great conflict. After being closed for several years, it was transformed into a Methodist church; then, still later, bars were put on the windows and the walls strengthened, and the structure wa3 put in use as a jail. When the city market plan was again revived, the old building was remodelled and modern improvements were made.

lights and the aimlessly eager throngs of Main street?

Parental counsel, "good" books, fireside games, social gatherings and Sunday schools do not hold the

modern youngster. The trolley, the motorcycle and the mother car are far more inviting, because they lead

somewhere. So faces are washed in a hurry, the hair is

slicked back or a curl is adjusted and they are off. Then

father and mother sit down and wonder why the boys and girls of today "won't stay home more". As an example on the other side, consider John Ruskin ,who called a home "a place of peace; the shelter not only from all injury, but from all doubt, terror and division. . . And wherever a true wife comes this home is always round lr." Ruskin doubtless got his idea from his own home, which he thus describes: I had never heard my father's or mother's voice raised in any question with each other, nor seen an angry or even slightly hurt or offended glance in the eye of either. I had never heard a servant scolded; nor even suddenly, or passionately or in any severe manner blamed. I had never seen a moment's trouble or disorder in any household matter; nor anything whatever either done in a hurry or not done in due ' time. Evidently the art of homemaking calls for thought and care on the part of parents and of teachers as well. If the father and mother have real interest In Intelligently planning the home life, then the children are likely to be interested there. If they neglect the home, their indifference will be reflected in the children. On the part o children, lack of proper training, failure to develop interests worth while, sends them afield for their amuse

ments. A proper home atmosphere calls for an enormous I

investment, not of money, but of care and patience and intelligence and love. '

A nervous old beau entered a , costumer's and said: :, x "I want a little help in the way of a suggestion. I am going to the French students' masquerade ball tonight, and I want a distinctly original costume something I can be quite sure no one else will wear. What can you suggest?" The costumer looked him over attentively, bestowing special notice on his gleaming, bald and shining head. "Well, I'll tell you," he said, thoughtfully, "why don't you sugar your head and go as a pill?" Once upon a time there was in charge of a certain Episcopal parish down on Long Island a youngish minister, who made a decided hit with a middle aged spinster of large means. Her family, with whom the preacher was less popular, used to torment her good naturedly about the "angel man" as they called the divine. One day the spinster brought the minister home for Sunday dinner without previously declaring her Intention to do so. Her brothers and sister, who had

not gone to service, were in the big living room when she breeaed in, hav

ing left the preacher in the hall to re

move his overcoat. "Well, how was the angel man today?" they chorused.

Did he preach one of bis soul inspir

ing sermons and was he as handsome as ever?" Sister made no move to halt the flow of kidding, but, turning

toward the door, said: "Hern hfi Is!

judge for yourselves as to his looks;

as for his sermon, perhaps youd all have been better off for hearing it." That ended the kidding for all time.

Why Swift & Company Handle

Poultry. Eggs, Butter and Cheese Swift & Company went' into the produce business because they saw a crying need for the kind of service they were equipped to perform. The produce business was in chaos. Collecting, transportation, preparation and distribution was hit-or-miss, with delay, deterioration and loss on every hand. The farmer was at the mercy of an uncertain, localized market. He had no way of reaching through to the people who needed what: he was raising for them. There was nq, premium upon improving his stocks, for grading was lax or lacking. The consumer had to accept produce that, as a rule, had no known responsible name behind it. He had no way of knowing how long the eggs or the butter he was buying had been ly(ing around in miscellaneous lots in the back room of a country store. Much of the poultry was not properly refrigerated before shipment or properly protected by refrigeration in transit. Swift & Company's initiative brought system to this chaos. Their organization, equipment, and experience in handling perishable food products were already adjusted to the task. Their refrigerator cars, branch houses, central points, far-reaching connections, trained sales force, supplied just jwhat was demanded.

Now the farmer has a daily cash market in touch with the nation's needs with better prices. Standardization makes better produce more profitable. More consumers art served with better, fresher, finer foodstuffs.

Nothing suffers from this save inefficiency, which has no claim upon public support. . Swift & Company, U.S. A.
