MARRY TO GET
OUT OF RUSSIA

Copenhagen, Dec 10 CORES
pondence of the Associated Press.)
Romance was intermingled with
tragedy IN the trying days when the
foreign colonies were attempting to
get permission to leave Russia. Ar
rests, searches and threats Of execu-
i tion were relieved by marriages be-
4 tween men OF the entente powers and
Russian women.
The Bolshevik government would
1 not grant Russian citizens permits
| TO go abroad Consequently foreign
| men who hoped TO leave Russia
/ shortly could not hope to see their
sweethearts for an indefinite period,
+ possibly never, IL they left them in
/. starving, disrupted Russia. where
I wood is denied to persons not regard
| ed as class conscious workmen" and
all persons not in sympathy with
Bolsheyism are dispossessed.
Many officials of the French and
British colonies married in the last
/ trying days of their stay in Moscow
/ and Petrograd, but the wedding of
captain w. l.. Hicks, military aide TO
! Bruce Lockhart, the British diplo-
matte representative in Moscow, was
| accomplished in the face of greater
obstacles perhaps, than those OF
othen entente citizens who managed
to marry between Jail sentences and
searches.
Captain Hicks was one of the
French and English officials who
were held as prisoners in the Amer
! lean consulate-general at Moscow.
! He was engaged to marry Madame
GaITr tNuF a
American premises to marry her. Most
of his official associates were in
prisons charged with, contra -revolu-
tionary activity and in danger of
execution. Russian priests refused
to perform the ceremony in the
American consulate, as the orthodox
church requires that marriages be
celebrated in a church.
Major Allen Wardwell, Of the
American Red Cross, who was look
ling after the interests of foreign pris-
oners, interceded with Bolshevik Of
ficials, but Peters, the head of the
commission for the suppression OF
contra-revolution was firm in his
refusal TO grant Captain Hicks i'm
munity IL he left the American prop
erty and walked into the Russian
church which stood in an adjoining
court. When the hour for the de-
parture Of the British officials from
Moscow approached the situation be-
came desperate.
Finally one of the Lettish women
who was guarding Captain Hicks
became interested in his plight and
telephoned to Peters, addressing him
/ in the Lettish tongue. Her appeal
was needed. She assumed respon-
lsibility for the delivery Of the Eng
JiST, %ofF1oar at fha fra in which TUas tn|
carry him out of Russia. A priest
was hastily engaged and the party
stopped in an orthodox church on the
way to the station, where the cere-
mony was performed just half an
hour before the bride and groom
started for England.

of this kind men waited for the

The sale is clean through and

The fabrics are clean and good.

The clothing is Clearly made, inside

The sale is a demonstration of what
"The Popular" can accomplish. Not
a sale of odds and ends-but brand
new Suits and OvercOats in heavy

models designed for Spring, 1918.
Because of the vast amount of Fall
and Winter business done by this
store, and the depleted condition of
our stocks, we were forced to send
our buyer to the East, in order to
have merchandise with which to sup
ply our customers.
The great makers with whom we deal regularly
joined hands with us and shaved their profits to
enable US to render this big service.
1t is a big thing-ihis sale The largest sale. We
