Russia's Enormous

"-H' WILL 20 to Berlin il it takes LILY

Gently attributed to Nicholas L.,
car Of Russia, and certain It Is
that this statement could MT imply
more in the way of sacrifice OF sol
diers on the lips of any other OF the
rulers of the earth. The resources OF
the car in armed men are enormous
and have given rise to the expression
"The steam roller campaign
The mere numbers Of the RUSSIAN
forces are appalling, and they are,
moreover, extremely well trained ana
well equipped. The lesson taught by
the o-Japanese war has been wen
driven home. and if the armies OF the
car are not now ready for anything
In the way of difficulties and distances
to be overcome they probably never
will be. Moreover, they are more than
ever before inspired by an intense 10y

ferences. once so numerous, are IN the
present campaign apparently largely
placed In the background.
As in most of the other great ma
tons of Europe. military service IN
Russia is both compulsory and univer-
sal Most of the men are or the peas
ant or farmer class, for Russia Is a
country of few large cities, and the
filling of the soil is the peaceful occu'
patton of a majority of her inhabitants
Such men are "moujiks," or peasants
and all are potentially soldiers; hence
the use of the term by Nicholas. Serv
ice, or, rather, liability to service, be

until the forty-second birthday.
Most countries have armies. Rus
