Masquerading as a democracy. anarchy has taken
possession Of Russia. In consequence her fields lie un-
cultivated, her factories are idle. her industries of all
kinds are stagnant, and a country which ought to be sup
plying vast quantities Of food to the rest OF the world.
and prospecting in the work. is bankrupt and starving, and
dependent on other nations for the barest necessaries.
This is an intolerable condition. We cannot supply RUS
STA with the things which must be the outgrowth Of the
character of her own people but, acting in conjunction
with our progressive associates. we can and should main
tain in Russia a sufficient force to throttle the Bolshevik
anarchists and to make possible a resumption Of Russian
industry.

American air service. He was flying

IT is OUR BUSINESS

Four years ago last July the people Of the United
States read with but slight interest Of the presentation
to the Serbian government by that of Austria Of an ulti-
matum couched in unusually severe and rigid terms. Ser
ba was a long way of, and what went on there was not
usually considered on this side to be much of the business
Of the United States. In spite of the fact that there were
those among us who sensed something of the immunity
Of Interest which We had with the rest Of the world, we
were quite generally inclined to congratulate ourselves
on our splendid isolation" and to trouble ourselves little
with the problems which affected the rest of the world.
AThe Serbian ultimatum was served, and we remained
silent.
The German government, rejecting everything that
looked toward peace, proceeded to strike at France what
was intended to be a mortal blow. In order to reach the
most vulnerable spot Belgium was ruthlessly ravaged.
and tho world was given a demonstration of German con-
tempt for a solemn obligation. America was shocked,
and among Americans there were many expressions of
horror at the unprovoked attack. But officially again we
held our peace. The Atlantic rolled between US and Bel
GUM, and we could not take part in European quarrels.
The war that was Matched in Berlin, whose pre-
liminar1es were assigned to Vienna, which ravaged Ser
ba and Belgium, Immediately affected the interests OF
the United States, and presently involved this nation in
the actual hostilities. 1t has caused us to send two mil
lion Of our men abroad, and to spend unproductively
moro money in a year than would be demanded for the
ordinary expenses Of our government in a generation
It was our business whether the war was started or not,
and it is our business what conditions shall mark It's
close.
We read Of the territorial claims which are being
made by this nation and that, and of the claims for com
pensation which are being put forth. Under the condi:
tons Of a few years ago we would have paid no attention
on the theory that the affairs Of Europe did not concern
Us. We have seen that we are concerned very intimately
and it is our business to bring to bear all the influence
we have to see that the settlements are such that they
will not carry with them the seeds Of another war.

Persistent Advertising

LII there is one enterprise on earth
that gutter should leave entirely
alone, it is ADVERTISING To make
success of advertising one must be
prepared to stick like barnacle on a
boats bottom. He should know before
he begins it that he must spend money
lots of it. Somebody must tell him
that he cannot hope to reap results
commensurate with his expenditure
early in the game. Advertising doesn't
jerk; it PULLS. II begins very gently
at first, but the pull is steady. It in
creases day by day and year by year

The timid advertiser thinks only OF
the space he buys, while in fact, this Is
not what he pays for at all. Buying
newspaper space means buying an all- I
