conversation.

Brown, in response to a statement
made by Jones, that all of your
Christmas presents are paid for?"

Of Jones. Il settled for the last of

one-half times as great as those OF
China and three times as great as
those of Great Britain; how it COM
prises one-sixth of the landed area of
the globe and one-tenth of the worlds
population, Gilbert H. Grosvenor, d.
rector of the National Geographic So
ciety, has just furnished the nearly
$4,000 members Of that organization
with striking pen picture Of Young
RUSSIA Land of Unlimited Posi-
bilities."
After giving an impression of the
diversity of the origin of its peoples,
who come from the Orient and the
Occident, the frigid North and the
tropic South; of its range of climate,
which gives the Palm Beach touch to
its Crimea and the breath of the North
to its White sea region; of it's vast
agricultural wealth; of the widely
varying aspirations of it's peoples.
which differ as greatly as those of the
Poles and the Mongols, as those Of the
Confucians and the Jews, as those of
the Tatars and the Laps; and of the
yastness Of the geographic limits of
the empire, Mr.. Grosvenor says:
But with all it's geographic great
ness Russia is about as poor in natural
outlets to the world as the smallest Of
the countries of the earth. Holland
could be hidden in the vast reaches of
the Russian plain, almost as a needle
in a haystack. y& Amsterdam does
more international business than all
the ports of Russia together. Not one
free outlet to the open sea does Euro
pean Russia possess except on the ice
bound shores of the Arctic ocean. The
path from the Black sea to the Medi-
terranean leads through the Bospo-
rus and the Dardanelles, held by alien
hands"
Mr.. Grosvenor next shows how there
live within the boundaries of the Rus
sian empire enough people to dupli-
cate the population of Germany, Great
Britain and France combined, with
enough left over to duplicate half the
population of Austria-Hungary. Fur
thermore, If Russia grows from 1912
to 1000 as she grew from 1872 to 1912,
her population then will be upward Of
six hundred million.
He then continues: From such
record of size, of bigness in every
thing, we should expect Russia to be
an old nation, like Great Britain. with
perhaps a thousand years of unhin-
dered growth behind her. But, as a
matter of fact, Russia is a youth
among the nations compared with
England, stripping whose full stature
and breadth is still subject of con-
lecture and speculation.
Russia is young because she never
has had chance to grow until recent
years. Her geographical shape or con-
dition was such that for centuries her
people were constantly being enslayed
or despoiled by stronger neighbors.
