UNION SHORT COURSE

CLOSES AFTER 3-DAY LECTURES AND SHOWS LIBERTY, lnd., Jan. 18. The Union rounty farmers' short course closed Wednesday after a successful session of three daya and an attendance in

cluding "every farmer and farmwife in the county and a sprinkling of learners from other counties," according to one enthusiastic supporter. A large audience was present lor the last day's events in spite of the damp weather. "Setting the Table and Serving the Meal," was the sub

ject, of Miss Beston's special lecture lor the women in the morning. In the anernoon she talked on home furnishing. Hog feeding was the subject of the men's special morning lecture by J. V. Schwab. In the afternoon he spoke on selection and feeding of beef cattle, while. P. (1. Riley, Purdue poultry specialist, demonstrated utility poultry judging from birds, in the show ring. A feature of the short course that probably was more widely commented upon than any other was the style show given by girl students of the high school Tuesday night. Strolling hack and forth upon the stage of the Coliseum, styles of both the past and

the present were, shown by the girls while others illustrated in their clothing, a fanciful prediction as to what the styles might be in the future. Special scenery was used and the whole stvle show was under the direction of Mrs. Trcffie RatlLff. A pantomime, "The Gypsy's Wanting" was given also during the evening. A black face act was given by Clyde Mullin. Prof. Schwab's lecture on live stock Improvement was illustrated with gtereopticon views.

An American-Russian Refugee By FREDERICK J. HASKIN

WASHINGTON, Jan. 18. A little committee of Americans headed by a Russian princess has undertaken the task of caring for refugees who have fled from the Soviet government. The princess is the granddaughte" of President Grant, and married Paul

Cantacuzene. aide-de-camp to the Grand Duke Nickolas, of Russia. After 20 years of life in the palaces and military camps of Russia, and exciting experiences in the revolutionary days, she came back to this country, one of the 3,000,000 refugees who have fled

from the Bolshevik rule. These refugees, she says, are practically all that is left of the Russian educated class. They are the profes sors, geologists, chemists, bankers.

earn their living somehow until they can return to their homeland. "The refugees are willing to do anything," the Princess says. "Their spirit is wonderful. Tere Is one typical instance: My own ex-neighbor, a rich landowner in Russia, wrote me some

months ago that she. her daughter and granddaughter, had escaped from the

Bolsheviki ana were stranded in Ser

obtain work and had been unable to do so because of the condition of their clothing. "Twenty-five dollars was sent. The old lady was 72, very fat, unused to work, and of delicate health, to my personal knowledge. Within three months, however, I had a letter from her saying that $20 had been spent to buy

that more Russians with professional

ability were crushed by Bolshevism than by the Tartar invasion which shook Russia centuries ago. Naturally the princess is against th? Soviet government. She believes that it is nearing a collapse, and that it is hostile, by its very nature, to the professional class. Much, of course, can be said on the other side. These are the views of a refugee who was identified with the old regime. "The educated class could not thrive under the Bolshevik regime.'" Princess Cantacuzene explained. "Those who

staid in Russia are lost to Russia a? useful material, forever. The Bolsheviki have built their government with the peasant class as the basis and they cater to this class. The Russian peasants are a strong foundation for a government, but in any progressive civilized state there must be encouragement to the thinkers, and the skilled and learned. So we regard the 3.000,000 refugees

as seed corn from which Russia must grow up again to strength after th-j fall of the now decaying Soviet government. The refugees are waiting patiently for the time when they can go back, and we believe that day is not far off." Of about 3,000.000 wandering Russians, approximately 1,000,000 are in

need of assistance, it is estimated. These , are to a large extent the wo men, children, old people and wounded. Helping to keep them alive and to put them on their feet is the mission which the Princess Cantacuzene and her committee have undertaken because they feel that Russia will soon need her refugee element. It is a difficult task. The refugees are scattered from Finland to Constantinople in Europe. They are in Paris. Berlin and Jerusalem. A few are in this country. Wherever they are, they want only the chance to

shop. Then word came back not to send any more money, as the shop had sold goods amounting to 300,000 marks and was self-supporting. Comparatively little of the committee's work has been done among refugees in this country. Immigrants are not admitted if they are destitute, and of those who have come from Russia, practically all have been able to shift for themselves.
