RUSSIA GETS SMALLER
German War Geography Shows De-
crease of One-Seventh.

Berlin, Nov. 6.-The school author
titles in Bavaria have published notes
on war geogra ply for the children at
tending the public schools. The fol-
lowing information is given regarding
Russia:
The Russian territory already occu-
pied by the Germans is four times as
extensive as the kingdom of Bavaria,
but is only one-seventy-fift of the en-
tire Russian empire. But the greater
part of Russia is thinly populated, and
the most populous districts are al
ready in German possession, so that
Russia can now show only six-sev-
enths of her former population.
At the beginning of The war, Rus
STA had fifty million more inhabi-
tants than Germany and Hun
gary combined: namely, 10 millions
against 120 millions. After a year of
warfare, this position had been re-
versed: Russia now has only 145 mil
lions, whereas the central monarchies
rule over 155 millions.
The new territory occupied in east
and west is as extensive as the entire
kingdom of Prussia

.ANxMEN IN DEBT
Isle of Man Faces Bankruptcy
Because of War.
Prisoners on Island Outnum.
Der Native Population.

London, Nov. 6.-No part of the
United Kingdom has been so hard
hit by the war as the Isle of Man which
cause the imperial treasury insists on
the wiping out of the deficit of $780,
900 before it will sanction the relief
of distress. Where the money is to
come from is problem, as the pro-
posed remedy of higher duties and
taxes will fall short of requirements
The island might swallow it's pride and
annex itself to the neighboring coun-
try of Lancaster, but tradition and
sentiment revolt at the idea. Although
Man is only 80 by IL miles, it's politi-
cal constitution is said to be the oldest
in Europe, its language, Gaelic dia
lect, is peculiar to the island, and
home rule has been the privilege of
the Manxman through the ages.
When the war came, the heavy
tourist and holiday trade was cut off.
The swift packet boats were taken
over by the Admiralty and the sub
marine menace made travel unpopu-
lar. Man then became a concentra-
ton camp of alien enemies, who now
number 10000 or less than three times
its total native population These
camps helped to save the situation for
the island farmers, although a poor
substitute for the flood of tourists who
used to come. 1t is now proposed
that the government use the hotels
and lodging houses. whose owners are
in great distress, as hospitals for con-
ValeScent soldiers. One of the relief
measures proposed by the Manx par
lament which the Imperial Treasury
refuses to endorse, is a grant of $780,
900 to distressed boarding house keep

Spelled Backwards.
Has Known Many of Nations
Most Noted Men.

A new author has appeared among
the local literati-or, rather, not a
new author, but writer who has
just published a new book, Ideals"
Because he has always written I'M
der the pseudonym .Egroeg Renum
Lesieg," the Rev. George Muller
Geisel is not we'll known locally as an
author, but his new book promises to
make him known locally and even
better known in the circle of his ear
her readers. He has been contrib
uting to newspapers and magazines
for many years. He was at one time
northern correspondent for the
Farmers Alliance of Atlanta, Ga,
and on that paper he cared especially
for the children's column. Many of
his verses have been widely copied,
and numbers of them appear on
Christmas cards every year.

Some Were Overlooked.
For a long time these people as in
dividuals or representatives of charit-
able societies have assisted every child
or his pa and ma who needed help
that they haye known. But too often
several organizations were helping the
same pas and mas while others who
needed help much more were I'M
known.
Then came the clearing house-the
Exchange. This office
keeps a record of every case on the
rolls of all agencies cooperating
it and when a person seeking
aid applies to any of the cooperating
societies it takes but a moment to find
out whether or not any organization
is already working on the case.
Now they are going to develop this
same plan in working out the Thanks
giving and Christmas giving. They
are going to try, at least, to keep files
