SALE OF VODKA
CAUSES TROUBLE
Russia Torn by Schemes
TO Get Liquor Interests
Back

Petrograd, May 30.-The increase in
the Illicit sale of vodka and the gem
eral wave of intoxication which
threatens to spread throughout the
country. provoking disorders and en-
dangering the internal peace of the
country. is the subject of a stirring
appeal to citizens issued by the eAeu-
utlve committee of the Council of
Workmen's and Soldiers Delegates.
I'VE notice an increase of drunken
ness in Petrograd and other parts of
Russia" reads the appeal. 1T is mo-
ticeable in the streets, railways, fac
tories and barracks. Vodka readily
is found In the villages of the interior
as well as at the front. An examina-
ton shows that many deplorabIe
events in the last few weeks were
due to drunkenness.
"Formerly the emperor encouraged
drunkenness since 1t helped to sup
port the imperial throne. Now the
black hundred is trying to intoXicate
the country because it wants to ere
ate disorders, cause civil war and the
return of the monarchy.
'Massacres will follow the appear
ance of vodka, villages will fight with
each other and then the servants of
the old regime will emerge from their
hiding places and there will be repe-
tition of what happened in 1905. The
work of the revolution will be
drowned in blood by the enemies of
the people. No one has the right to
buy vodka or to drink it. Let it
disappear forever, with the old re-
gime"

A good attendance and keen APP
preciation were indications of wide
spread interest in the song recital
given last evening at the Phillips stu
dio. 121 State street. by Miss Flora
Eshenower and Miss Martha t,
Lawton. The program which was
given entirely from memory evinced
excellent talent and careful study.
Mrs. Phillips accompanied both vo-
calists in their numerous and diff
cult renditions of the various clas-
sizes.
Miss Lawton, who possesses an un-
usually fine mezzo contralto voice,
has studied with Professor Phillips
for two years. Miss Eshenower,
who has a beautiful lyric soprano
voice and has been studying for one
year, contemplates preparing herself
for concert work.

WOMEN ANXIOUS
TO ECONOMIZE
Practical Home Study Courses
Necessary to Present Day
Conditions

Every woman in the home Is anx-
ious to do things better and more
economically-she is anxious to
dress better. wear more becoming
hats, know more about cooking and
household management and to i'm
prove herself in health and physical
appearance. as well as perfect her
self in all matters of custom and
good form.
But the average woman in the
home cannot afford nor has the time
to attend a resident school for the
acquiring of the knowledge necessary
to accomplish any one of these
things. The woman in the home is
a busy woman, and her studying
must be done in conjunction with
her many numerous home duties.
1t was with this thought in mind
that this paper made special ar
rangements which enable it to offer
all subscribers choice of one of the
six courses taught by the Lincoln
Correspondence Schools, Inc, of New
York city, particulars of which will
be found elsewhere in this edition.
The Lincoln Correspondence
Schools courses were written by the
best living authorities in their re-
spective lines--experts who have
had years of practical experience and
whose accomplishments have gained
for them international recognition
The courses are most comprehen-
sive and complete, as we'll as being
thoroughly practicable. The man
agement of this paper feel that they
have indeed made possible an oppor-
tunity that will mean much to the
home women of this community.
What woman wouldn't be delight
cd to have three dresses or three
hats, better made and more becom-
ing, at the same price as those she
now wears? Or what woman would
not welcome the opportunity of
poss essing a graceful figure and
attractive features or want to know
how to conduct herself properly on
any and all occasions? Or can fancy
picture a housewife who isn't anxious
to reduce the cost of feeding her
family without lesseninS the nutri-
ment or tastiness of her meals?
Scientific home management is an
other important item to the house.
wife who longs for a properly ar
ranged, properly managed house
hold. 1t is a certain fact that it
doesn't take so much money to fur
nish a room If you know how to
arrange it and work is neither so
lcnE nor so hard If you know how
to do it.
No housewife is so busy that she
cannot spare short time each day

SHOW THE FLAG

Show the flag and let IL wave
AS symbol of the brave;
Let 1t float upon the breeze
As sign for each who sees
That beneath 1t, where 1t rides,
Loyalty to-day abides.'
Show the flag and signify
That 1T wasn't born to die
Let Its colors speak for you
That you still are standing true
True In sight of God and man
To the work that flag began.
Show the flag that all may see
That you serve humanity.
Let 1t whisper to the breeze
That comes singing through the
trees
That whatever storms descend
You'll be faithful to the end.
Show the flag and let 1t fly,
Cheering every passerby;
Men that may have stepped aside,
May have lost their old-time pride,
May behold 1t there aid then
Consecrate themselves again.
Show the flag. the day Is gone
When men blindly hurry on
Serving oily gods of gold,
Now the spirit that was cold
warns again to courage fine.
Show the flag and fall in line!
HURRAH!
