PETROGRAD. Dec. 2-The effect
OF the war on the common soldiers
and their families In the villages has
been studied and reported to the I'M
perial Geographic Society by I. I.
Ulyanoff on the basis Of letters that
have passed through his hands. Mr..
ulyanoff examined fourteen letters
written about the same time from
the Dvinsk front and an equal num-
Der of letters written from a village
in the northern province of Perm. OF
course there was no selection. With
out exception all the village letter
writer's declared the. war had to be
fought to victorious conclusion, no
matter what the cost to the country
or to themselves.
The soldiers writing from the front
some on the eve Of battle-ex-
pressed unfaltering confidence in the
final outcome, whether they should
live to see it or not. But what was
more striking was that practically all
the soldier letter-writers had obvious
" undergone. in their lonely watches
or in their quiet trench conversations
moral experiences that Mr.. Ulyanofi
characterized as conversions. They
expressed the Intention, II spared, to
live according to the dictates Of their
consciences. Some spoke Of vows by
themselves and by companions not to
fall in future into tie errors of their
past, to be sober and Industrious, gem

Standard oil Company Leases North
First street Tract, Close to Main, For
Ornamental oil Station For Autos.

Neat and even ornate automobile OIL
ing stations, that have become common
in other cities, and especially in the
west, are to be introduced In this
city. The Standard Oil Company has
negotiated long lease, and option to
purchase, of the tract in North First
street. half q block north of Main
street, that was purchased recently by
w. G. Strickler and c. P. Cook.
The tract Is on the west side of the
street, and is 65x7S feet in dimension.
The STANDARD Oil Company has plans
made to spend $4,000 to $500 build
ing an oiling station, identifying the
grounds apd equipping the station
A small ornamental building large
enough for a small store room for oils,
and a rest room for women. will be
built. The building will be easily as
cessible over wide drives into it.
The grounds will be ornamented
with flower beds and ornamental bor-
ders Work is to be begun Sept. l. and
the owners have until that time to
move off the old house that is on the
tract.
In other cities the Standard Oil
Company and other companies have
established many such oiling stations
in residence districts. Much expense
has been borne to make them orna-
mental as to building and grounds. In
one addition, for example, where the
homes were all bungalows, the oiling
station was miniature bungalow to

rhe Shooting of Dan McGrew" shown
the Lyric Saturday and Sunday eve
ings to good-sized audiences. The
icture is taken from Robert w. Ser
ices poem Of the same name. and
eatures Edmund Breese as Jim, the
fresh from the creeks" Dan
aerous Dan McGrew," a gambler ana
miner. who is known all over the north
west. has stolen Jim's wife some fifteen
wears before, and Is living with her.
Jim has a terrific struggle during the
many years before he finds McGrew
ami mis- wife, Hhn is 1.-The lady that's
known as Lou" The really exciting
scenes In the picture take place in the
"Malamute saloon" where Jim, the
miner stumbles in and recognizes his
wife and McGrew. Verses of the poem
are thrown upon the screen from time
to time, making the picture more vivid.
In the end the stranger makes a rev
brief, yet extremely effective remarks
concerning McGrew. and then two shots
are fred. When the lights went up the
scene is a tragic one, and is described
in the words Of the poem as:
pitched on his head and pumped
full Of lead, was Dangerous Dan Nc
Grew,
While the man from the creeks lay
clutched to the breast Of the lady that's
known as LOU"
The scenery and stage settings OF the
picture turnout are realistic. while the
acting of Mr.. Breese as Jim, the man
from the creeks" is such as to leave
an impression on those who saw 1t.
Dan McGrew and the lady Lou" also
play their parts well.

COUNCIL LOWERS LEVY
Finds Law Prevents It Anticipating
Expenditure For Paving Roads-ls
Forced to Take OF Levy.

Because the council found that the
law does not allow it to anticipate it's
share of the expense for paving six OF
the main roads to the city limits, the
council was forced this forenoon to re-
move the levy of 1 mill it. made last
week for this improvement. County
Auditor A. w. Dobson called the at
tention Of the council to its oversig hit.
He reported that he did not want to
levy the tax because the council had
not yet made the improvement, and
the law says specifically that the tax
shall not be levied until the improve
ment is made.
BY leaving this levy in with the 9TH
ers, altho it was most desirable to have
the money about the time some Of the
paving was being finished, the council
did not want to take the chance Of
having perhaps the whole tax levy in
validated. City Solicitor F. E. Northup
advised the council to eliminate this
levy.
1t did so by reconsidering and
amending the resolution Of necessity
passed last Monday, which levied AIS
mills for taxes, by cutting out the 4
mill for paving roads. This change
leaves the city levy at 40.5 mills in
stead of AIS. an increase of mills
over the 1914 levy instead Of an in
crease Of 5 mills.
The council will now be confronted
with the financing of the city's share
of the street improving project by some
method until 1917 when tax money will
begin to come in, as it can not be lev
led now until 1916.
