MEN KNITTING FOR SOLDIERS
Show Remarkable Ability at Clicking
, the Long NeedIes-One an Ex-
pert at Tattng.

The art of knitting has long been
considered exclusively feminine &C.
complishment, but the theory that man
has not patience or inclination to
spend his leisure hours in clicking the
needles has been exploded in Califor.
mia, where wonders never cease.
A dispatch from Red Bluff, Tehama
county, records that Gorham King
manager Of department store there,
has almost completed his first knitted
set, consisting Of q sweater, muffler
wristlets and pair Of socks, for some
soldier in France.
King spent his vacation at Moon.
stone Beach, and there he learned to
knit in an effort to forestall a threat
ened nervous breakdown. His sister
and mother have vouched for his pro.
ficiency in the art, and say, besides,
that knitting has cured him of much
of his nervousness. 1t is no uncom.
mon sight, say the natives Of Red
Bluff, to see him drop his work at the
store and sit down for q "spell" OF
knitting.

WHY RUSSIA WANTS REPUBLIC
Any Other Form of Government Would
Present Many Difficulties, If
Not Impossible.

A last point to which l wish to call
attention is that from the first hour
of the revolution the republican idea
made extraordinary progress in the
minds of all classes, writes Captain
X" in Scribner's. I live among Rus
slams and could therefore watch it's
growth day by day. Men of letters
and men Of business, merchants, finan-
ciers, lawyers, professors saw them,
one after another, come to the same
way of thinking. For the first weeks
it seemed impossible to many of
should be Russian republic. They
said:
"Our country Is not ripe for one.
Think of all the hard experiences
which you French went through before
the republic was really at home in
France. and yet your people are high
ly developed, while ours are not" And
so on. These same men have now
come round, little by little, to the re-
publican idea. One reason Is that
any otllcl Lol LII VI "OulA
present many difficulties, if, indeed, 1t
Is not impossible. The Romanoff dy-
nasty is discredited, to say the least;
it is not conceivable that it should be
reihstated, and there are no other
available aspirants to the throne, even
supposing that the nation wished to
return to a monarchy.
Anyone who' feels inclined to pro-
nounce judgment upon the Russian
revolution should bear this in mind |;
the old regime was so detestable that
any new one, even If far from perfect,
cannot be worse. From the military
point Of view, which Is of course what
is most interesting to Russias allies,
the former system, or want of it, had
so disorganized the whole country that
it was becoming more and more diff
cult to carry on the war. 1t is hard
to see how now either the Russians or
we of the allies can suffer by the
change, because what has been thrown
away was absolutely worthless. That
should always be in our minds when
we are inclined to criticize Russia, In
order that we may keep our proper
mental perspective and see things as
they really are.

Problem for Enulne Builders,

The farm tractor engine has beer
described as a 90 per cent engine be
cause 1t Is under load the majority
of its time. The motor truck engine
might be spoken Of as 40 per cent
one, and the motor car engine as 0

rarely If ever working at full power
such as the airplane engine is. Be
cause of this greater load on the air

than building 100000 motor car en-
