Russ Situation
Cause of ANXIETY
in Berlin Circles

Amsterdam, Jan. 24.-German
parliamentary circles regard the
Russian situation as being very
critical, according to the Lokal An
zeiger of Berlin, copy of which
has been received here.
The paper says that the latest
news from Petrograd shows that
Bolsheviki supremacy is seriously
threatened and the question arises
as to whether it would be wise to
negotiate further with men who
anarchy at any moment may sweep
away.
The Lokal Anzieger adds that in
political circles account Is being
taken of the possible influence
events in Petrograd may have on
the negotiations at Brest-Litovsk.

the eountry's failure in this respect 'is both silly and unpatriotic."
 ITO permit them to go uncorrecteo, he said, lis to play the German game in the most effective manner possible. II IS no mere accident that has made all the pro-German organs in the press clamor against the men who dare to point out our shortcomings; for the pro-Germans know well that the ruthless enemies Of this country, whom they serve as far as they dare, desire nothing so much as to see this country afraid to acknowledge and make good it's shortcomings; and these pro-Germans cloak their traitorous aid to Germany under the camouflage of pretended zeal to save American officials from just criticism"
 Colonel Roosevelt said America would be wjse to make it's ultimate aim such military and industrial preparedness as shall save us from eyer again beins caught in such shape as to be helpless to protect ourselves" In this connection, he reiterated his advocacy of universal military training The training camps of today" he said, "are huge universities of American citizenship; and 1t will be a crime if they are ever discontinued

It's an old saying-as old as the hills-that the good Lord helps those who try to help themselves. No com munity's growth can ever be greater than its civic pride and the interest fare warrants.
 Down in Birmingham's big little sis ter city of Bessemer there is num- Der of enterprising merchants and business men who devote much of their time and energies to fostering civic progress as well as looking after their own particular interests.
 These gentlemen have long ago re- alized that if their own town is to
 grow a pride of self must be estab- lished and constantly maintained. They know also that it is necessary that as
 much of the money earned in Besse- mer as is possible must be spent in Bessemer to insure firm foundation for further advancement.
 l It goes without saying that every dollar spent elsewhere that should be and could be kept in home circulation robs any community of its opportuni- i ties in many ways. And in Bessemef' as elsewhere, many thoughtless clel- zens who have their all invested there' | earn living there and must rise or fall with their eitys tide or prosperity | invariably spend their money away 1 from home without Investigating the local opportunities of doing as we'll or better by patronzing the local dealers. In order to check this spirit in to-
 days issue of The Age-Herald many
 of Bessemer's most enterprising deal CTS are taking advantage or this pa per's splendid daily circulation in their
 territory by jointly advertising their
 merchandise. The Age-Herald congrat-
 ulates them, and while we appreciate for our own local merchants the hand
 some patronage that comes up iron
 there, this newspaper indorses the plaf
 of using printers ink as step in tho right direction and suggests that sucf
 co-operation should be frequently re
 peated. No other plan is so sure to de liver the goods as publicity in th' daily edition of The Age-Herald fol Bessemer merchants.
 Among those participating in th'
 big double page advertisement of Bes semer merchants today are the Bes
 semer National bank, the United
 States Savings bank, couple of req
 estate and insurance concerns, G. II
 Stevenson & Co.,, and Edward P. John son, all of them untiring Besseme
 boosters. Among the merchants are tn , Fulton Drug company, introducing 3 new toilet preparations; Neal Electri company. Ever-ready Battery service , Harris Brothers. mems clothing an , furnishings; the Bessemer Steam laun dry Jones Taxicab company, E.
