CONFISCATED GOODS PILFERED BY CORRUPT OFFICIALS OF SOVIET

(By Associated Preas) MOSCOW, Nov. 28 Goods acquired by the government -when it took over ' all property have been dissipated to a : very great extent and probably con- j sti'ute a considerable part of the ran-1 teilal offered on the local street mar ! kets. I The Bolshevists confiscated the; stocks of merchants and the contents! of offices and residences and stored them in Rovernnient houses which j have been named "loot houses" by the j nin-Communist public. These stocks were drawn on very j heavily by the army and for other ?ov-1 eminent purposes. But they also! proved a sold mine for dishonest ofiic-! mIs. and tlie dearth of all sorts of' small articles in these houses indi j cates that pilfering has been pretty j general. : Concert pianos. giga.ntic divans, im-j rnens- bedroom suites and wardrobes abound, but flat silver, table linen, "mail rues and other household articles which guard a could carry are lacking. When the American Relief administration opened up the houses where its personnel lives the government, was to supply all furnishings under th foot! agreement. It was with greatest difficulty that enoueh dishes were found in the "loot houses" for the use of th Americans and, although assurances were given that the government stores would ield plenty of table silver, the relief workers were obliged to use tinned, iron spoons. Repeated searches were 'made in warehouses where silver was listed, but it was always missing. Many old-time Russians who are employed by the American Relief Administration have recognized pieces of their own furniture In the lot supplied io the American Relief Administration houses by the government. Many of the better pictures from private houses have been put into galleries in Moscow and Petrograd. Old furniture and tapestries have also been saved for museums in many cases, but the great mass of confiscated furniture and carpets has gone into government offices or residences of government officials. The property of foreigners was treated the same as that of Russians. ! Tuberculosis Tips V ; The time has come to mobilize our forces to repel the invader. Wh t invader? Tuberculosis. Where did be get in? Friend, he has been here for years; he beat Columbus over. In tact, he has been on the job for the last 2,500 years and Is still going strong. This is everybodys fight and oven though money will help, money will not win the war by Itself. The ministers of the country should cooperate with existing health agencies, they should secure adequate provision for their poor members; they should distribute health literature to their people. Doctors should insist that their patients be examined regularly, at least once a year, sick or well, in order to prevent tuberculosis from setting a foothold. Teachers should instruct children rules of health, by keeping the clasF-room well ventliated, even if the janitor does growl because a little heat slips out of the open window. Better have a little heat slip ouf than a little germ get in some innocent's body. Parents should help by kee ping the home wellventilated. Fresh air is the cheapest thing in the world, grab it. See thct bedroom windows are opened and KEPT open. They should study food values because anything that can b3 eaten is not necessarily poper food for growing childen. A glass of milk in the morning is infinitely superior 1o doughnuts and coffee. Children j should try to keep clean, by keeping pencils, buttons, coins, and the like out of their mouths. "Workers can help by insisting on well-ventilated working places, by avoiding dust and dampness, by refusing to work in dark workrooms (unless they are photographers!: by avoiding the overwork that comes from long, inhuman hours, and by demanding sanitary appliance, nnd facilities in tho shop and community. These are the forces, but the finances must come from Christmas seals and Christmas bonds. Even one cent will help but it stands to reason that a dollar. $100 or even Sl.Otm will help in proportion. Health can not be bought, but it can be guaranteed by proper methods. The Home Garden Hut little interest is found among p.-eple so far as growing peaches is concerned; yet there were a few trees in Richmond that yielded a good crop of fruit this year. The horticultural department of Purdue University has issued a bulletin giving several valuable sugeeslions to those who might become interested in growing a few trees. The most important are as follows: All things considered spring planting is safer than fall. If moisture conditions are favorable fall planting will be an advantage. If it is desirable to plant in the fall, allow the tree to t-hed its leaves normally before digging. Spring planting should be done as early as the ground is suitable. MMihim sized stock is preferable: one .ar old pea'h trees have the preference over two year old trees. The reliability of the nurseryman is very important. Order early so as to get good stock and free from disease. In setting the trees dig the holes just large enouch to receive the root system and deep enough that the trees may be set about three inches deeper than they were in the nursery.

His writings, chiefly in tho form of contributions to newppapei.-s and magazines, first began to attract attention about lSTfi. These appeared over the pen name "B. F. Johnson, ot Boone." Xever taking his verse wr iting very seriously, Riley busied himself with such unpoetical work as the painting of wagons and other odd pursuits. In remarkable degree this author possessed the gift of playing upon tht human heart strings with magic touch and the quality that makes his verse ring true. Among his best remembered writings in addition to "The Old Swimmin' Hole.' are "After Whiles." "Green Fields and Running Brooks." "An Old Sweetheart of Mine," and "Rhymes of Childhood," all of whi"'i are pre-eminently characterized by humor, pathos and sympathetic treatment of the simple phases of life. "The Old Swimmin Hole" in its motion picture form is a First National attraction directed by Joseph DeGrasse. and will close its showing at the Richmond tonight.

I due to the faithlessness of his sweet heart, who turned to another man. Herbert Duffy has more of u chance to express himself In this play and he more than handles his part in a pleasing manner. The owner of the Inn 'Jim Evans,' taken by Arthur Olm, is the center of interest during the entire show, through his peculiar habits and temperament. He takes his part well and plays it to a perfection. His make-up brings out an old time tight-wad who proves very difficult to deal with. Lotta Ellis takes the part of the servant 'Amelia' in the play and characterizes this. person to the dot, as she has proven in her past plays. Her make-up is a scream and the situations which confront her make things lively at all times. Lucille Husting, taking the part of Rose Howard, Kendall's phantom sweetheart and Beth, played by Bonnie Beck, a true friend of Kendall, have a

rnance to prove their real ability and!"no foes not draw on it is overlook-

to express themselves to the limit. Especially did. Bonnie Beck brins out her talent in handling the part which is carried throughout the entire play. Judge Weeks, who insists in arresting speeder;! and taking care of the money, is well played by George Robi bins. He brings mirth with every entrance. j Jay Collins plays the role of Phillip i.una, wno is instrumental in wrecking the first romance of young Kendall. IT'S role does not carry as much expression as has neen the tact ini previous p'ays, but he does meet all' the requirements of the part. I Mr. Kendall, Jack Kendall's rath-! er. played by Jack Boyle, proves to! be the hard lather at the son's hour! of need and leaves him to look our fori himself. Jack Boyle has a part which ' brings out expression and talent and' surely handles his end of the play with lact. " William Griggs, takes the part of i Mr. BJake, the representative of a large auto manufacturing concern. Blakes startles all the stockholders in ihe 'Mile a Minute Engine Company' with his exceedingly large offering for the invention which young Kendall had perfected.
