More Effective Than Bullets
Now Against Russia.
German Liquor Finds Way to
Slavs Despite Orders.
BY WILLIAM G. SHEPHERD

Petrograd. June 2O.-Germany is
using alcohol and ink instead of pow
der on the east front. The propaganda
of booze and notes is relied upon more
than bullets just now to undermine
the strength of the Russian army.
Despite all efforts to stop communi-

trenches, German liquor seems to APP
pear on the Russian side and every
morning there are hundreds of neat
lv printed or carefully written notes
and letters deposited near the Rus

day an increasing betterment OF NOR

In the case Of hobbies, Just as In all

Is a very different matter, says the

vtduality; they represent various
routes by which we are struggling to
arrive at a certain goal, a goal per-
haps which may not be clearly defined,
but which exists somewhere for those
who try to reach It. We find q certain
comfort at times In yielding to the
more or less soothing influences Of
some particular hobby, whether 1t be
