Americans in Russian
City.
LIVE LIKE RATS EIGHT DAYS
Describes Terrible Experiences During
Fight Between the Bolsheviki and
cadets--;n Very Center
Of the Battle.

Seattle, Wash.--How Americans hud-
died for eight days in the basement
of hotel in Moscow, Russia, while
the battle between the bolshevlki and
cadets loyal to the government ragged
over their heads, is told in wildly
interesting letter received here by
relatives of Mrs. Helen Meserve, for
mery Of this city, who has spent the
last three and one-half years with her
husband in Russia.
Harry Meserve, her husband, Is
representative of the National City
bank of New York in Petrograd and
Moscow.
Living like rats and running from
place to place to avoid the bullets of
the machine guns and the shells Of
the larger guns" Mrs. Meserve says,
"was an experience she hopes never
to undergo again."
The first part of her letter is dated
November II, 1917, at Moscow. 1t
says:
Yesterday we were able to leave
the hotel in Moscow and are now at
the French military headquarters.
For eight days we were under bonn
bardment and for three hours the
guns of the anarchists were turned
directly on the Hotel National, where
great damage was done. All the
windows were broken and the walls
torn by the big shells.
Like Rats in Cellar.
"The last few days we lived like
rats in the cellar, running from place
to place to safe shelter. During all
the bOmbardment we did not take our
clothes off and sat up two nights"
Four days later the letter was con-
tinued at the Hotel d'Europe In Pc
trograd. The letter continues:

Fear Teacher Famine

There never was time when good
public school teachers were needed
as they are now and as they will be
in the immediate future" said Doctor
Allen. 1.-THE whole problem of Amer
icanization and training for citizen
ship, as 1t must be met in the ele-
mentary public schools, is fundamen-
tai, yet from all over the country we
hear Of the failure of young men and
women to register In the training
schools. We are approaching crisis"
From Iowa comes the report that
100 schools have no teachers at all.
In Philadelphia as many substitutes
are needed In month this winter as
are ordinarily employed In the full
school year. Men have gone to the
war, and woman teachers are resign
ing constantly. Cincinnati reports the
fear of a teacher famine.
p. P. Claxton, United States COM
missioner of education, reports: "The
shortage is constantly increasing and
is embarrasslngly large in some sec
uons."

PAYS 6 CENTS TO COLLECT S
Tax Collecting Not Always Profitable
Job, According to County
Treasurer.

Wichita, Kan.-Collectlng taxes Is
not always profitable job, according
to County Treasurer w. II. Hewey.
The other day man living out of
town wrote to the county treasurer,
asking the amount of his taxes on a
small lot In the outskirts of the town.
They were FIVE cents, so he was in
formed by letter, costing the county
treasurer a three-cent stamp.
In few days letter was received
with the five cents. He had to have

NAL in the northwestern part of the
state. Local showers occurred at the
opening of the week. Crops have
been benefited where rain fell. In
localities. however. in the dry farm

districts the straw is heading short.
The first cutting of alfalfa is mostly
in the stack; there has been some
discoloration from rain. Sugar beets
and corn have improved; some dam

is doing well; the picking of cherries
has begun. Worms are causing some
