TIE GERMAN INVASION
OF RUSSIA

Any person who has read about
the village communes in Russia
knows that conditions there are not
like those of-any other country
When the people migrate they do
not go as individuals, but as whole
villages together.
Already, it is said, the rural popu-
lation moved out of the frontier
province of Volhynia in advance of
the invasion by Mackensens army.
The Germans in some places found
themselves compelled to march
through a desolated region. The
harvest in Russia promised to be
bountiful, but in no case were the
Germans allowed to read it.
Herein is where Russia, even if
not yet supplied with enough NUM-
lions, has the advantage of almost
ineXhaustable numbers being the
lines that can be called upon in any
emergency. If the emergency re-
quires that it be done, not only ar
mics. but population, with stock and
crops. would be withdrawn into IN
terror, and this determination to
lay waste as the enemy approached
would finally ruin the invader.
Such is war. 1t is waste and ruin
But the Russians can retreat for
months, steadily strengthening in
stead of weakening as they move
backwards. until they can turn with
crushing strength when the enemy
is furtherest from his bases.
One of the most graphic chap
ters of history is that one which
narrates the burning of Moscow in
1912. when the city was set on fire
and burned rather than permit it to
shelter and protect the French army
under Napoleon against the rigors
of an arctic winter; and the same
spirit seems to possess the Russians
of Today-Jackson (Mich.) Patriot.

More than this, an old chum in

good authority that Winnie and Ned

The citizens of the State want to

he would devote all of the time that

he had not labored in vain. when Ned

fervently, tears in her eyes:

Winnie cried like a child when
Myrtle read to her letter written by
her brother. She reproached herself.
she declared she was unworthy of the
brave hearted man whom she had put
to cruel, crucial test.
II shall never dare to face him

1T was grand!" cried Myrtle. Tell
your mother all about it, while tell
mine of her boy, the new brother and

When Elwyn got OF the train at his
home town a week later. 1t was Myrtle
who met him at the depot She told
him the whole story.
There was somebody waiting for
him, she said, and Elwyn knew who 1t
was.
'Forgive!" was the first fluttering
word that greeted him from Winnie's
lips.

your heart had turned away from me-"
said Elwyn. How much more, now

]. H. Tatum, who is in the city in
the interest of the Fort Myers-Mia-
mi road appeared before the Board
of County Commissioners Friday af-
ternoon and presented the views of
the Chamber of Commerce of Mia
mi and also the Board of County
Commissioners of Dade county.
The question of which route the
road would take was discussed.
Three routes, one which is to be Sc
lected for the road, were given care
full consideration. The three routes
are: One down the cast as far as
Marco and then across the county
to the Dade county line; another to
lmmokalee and then diagonalln
across, and the last and the one
which appeared to meet the approval
of most of those present was the one
to Labelle and from there to the
northeastern corner of the county.
The sentiment of the meeting ap-
peared to be that the Labelle route
was the one most preferred for sew
eral reasons. That it. will lead
through the most settled part of Lee
county and will give traveller
along the road a chance to see the
cream of thecounty which would not
be afforded by either of the other
routes, and that following the road
from this city to Labelle the road is
already in good condition and with
very little work can be made I'M
usually good.
Mr.. Tatum emphasized the fact
that the Dade county people were
willing to meet Lee county at any
point desired, and that, as to wwhere
the road should lead would be left
entirely with the commissioners of
Lee county. Mr.. Tatum said:
"If the Labelle route is followed,
then the Dade county line will run
along the Miami canal almost all
the way to the Lee county line, and
I believe that | can in this way
have the deepening of the anal
done. 1t will make it cheaper for
us to take the rock from the canal
and build one of the best roads in
South Florida.
mot only this" continued Mr.. Ia
tum, "but it will make it possible
for person who wishes to make thu
trip to Miami by water to do so.
that is, after the canals are deepen
ed from Lake Okeechobee to the Ca
loosahatchee river, which will soon
be done. I believe it will be posi-
BILE for us to have this road in readi-
ness for travel this coming season.
that is, the Dade county people will,
