Indians in the Great War.

Indians have been volunteering for
service in the United States army since
1861. In 1892 Lieutenant Scott, later
chief of the stall. organized and
trained a troop of the Seventh caval-
~, which was highly commended by
the inspector general of the war de-
partment.
The Indian is trained as the Swiss
train their boys, so that they may be
able to fire a gun accurately and earn
living. He has all the qualities of
good soldier-endurance, patience,
courage and an instinct for scouting,
London Tit-Bits says.
The Canadian government recog-
nized the great fighting ability of the
many Indian nations and tribes who
volunteered their services for king and
country at the outbreak of the war,
and there are hundreds of Indians en-
rolled in many of the different Cana
dian regiments at the front. Many
have made the supreme sacrifice,
among the first to fall being Lieut..

THINKING ALOUD IN RUSSIA
Crowds Assemble on Streets to Par.
ticipate in Debates Which Really
Amount to Very Little.

Along the Nevsky that evening in
the parks and open spaces, little herds
of people were packed together as
sheep crowd together under a tree on
an August afternoon. In the center
two persons debated, shaking their
hands in each others faces. They had
been talking like that for weeks all
over Russia, writes Arthur Ruhle in
Golfers Weekly.
All Petrograd was one big village
neeting-the village habit of talking
over together the villages business be-
ing transferred to the capital. And
coming in late at night from the edge
Of town. you could see every now and
then these black little clumps of peo-
pie, still talking, still huddled there,
vaguely pathetic, like sheep under the
trees.
Any one of hundreds of excited
phrases flung off in these little debat-
ing clubs might, 1 suppose. have sent
q man to Jail or Siberia a generation
ago. Now they could say anything,
gather anywhere, listen as long as they
wanted. Russians have a gift for talk
ing and happy lack of self-conscious-
ness in doing it. They really like to
make speeches. Mr.. Root, in one of
the lighter moments of his stay in Pc
trograd, remarked that one of the
tragedies of the Russian revolution
was the turning loose on the world
100000 orators.
Now one saw some old peasant, a
giant Of man, come down with a
barge Of firewood from the north, per-
haps, holding forth with great quaint
ness of phrase and gesture to an
amused group of city folks. Or while
~ U1ked some expansive old fel-
low. In the long coat. cap and boots
u the old-style merchant, would be
doing a sort Of comic accompaniment
on the edge of the crowd, throwing
out his arms and putting 'galubchik
moi" (''my little dove'D between every
other sentence
Much of this talk which looks inter-
esting-so expressive is voice and ges-
ture-turns out to be a mere sort of
thinking aloud.

frightened recently by the war trade
board with view to conserving Amer

Importers before they can obtain IL
censes will be required to sign an
agreement that they will sell no wool
to persons other than manufacturers
and that they will give the govern
ment an option to purchase all wool
imported at a price 5 per cent less
