Coming Things in Russia.

The energy which the Japanese displaying in
Siberia, and the fact that neither Bolsheyiks nor
Austro-Germans have any stomach for fighting with
them carries very clear assurance of improvement
in the Russian situation 1t is only a matter
of getting the ground toward European Russia;
resistance short of the volga may be appre-
hended.
The Boshevik structure is crumbling Why does
it take long for it to collapse? Evidently be-

Jumped together under the convenient though I'M

inert, actonless, born victims of those who take

testify the Russian people, who are really sick to
death of the Bolshevik rule do not rise instantly
and resstlessy against it because they fear the re-
turn Of czarism and bloody revenge upon all who
followed the path Of revolution
The Russian people must have a master They
have found new and a vile one; they do not like
him. but they fear to return to the old Let them
be assured that the arrival Of foreign help really
means not the restoration of czarism, but the es-

THE DAILY SHORT STORY

mother was right, and she dried
her eyes. That afternoon the
sweater was neatly folded and
pinned on it was a slip OF pa
per, on which was written Ruth's
name and address.
Ruth then started off for the Red
Cross rooms with a guilty feeling
for having finished a soldier $
sweater on her unlucky day. She
felt that something terrible would
happen to the soldier whose fate
1t was to wear the sweater. With
these thoughts running through
her mind, Ruth came to her des-
tination, and after delivering her
bundles, she returned home.
Two months passed and Ruth had
forgotten all about the sweater that
had been completed on Friday, the
18th. Other things had occupied
her mind.
One beautiful day in August Ruth
was swinging back and forth in the
hammock. knitting as usual. She
was very busy repeating knit two,
purl two so consequently she did
not see young man in khaki en-
ter the gate and como toward her.
She was therefore alarmed when
someone asked her in a polite way
II she were Miss Ruth Pierce. Ruth
nodded in reply. and the stranger
began to tell her that he was the
soldier TO receive her sweater. Ruth
forgot all her shyness at this. and
interrupted with And has nothing
terrible happened TO you since you

False Philosophy.

IN his speech at New York this evening President
Wilson is likely to make reply to the address of Won
Hertling The president will not experience any
difficulty in proving how faacious are the conclu-
sions at which the German chancellor arrives For
example such statements as these:
I'VE, have never concealed the fact that all
thoughts of conquest were far from our minds"
'The widest fury is at present raging in
the United States; the people are intoxicated with
the idea that America must bring the blessings Of
modern liberal kuItur the enslaved peoples of
central Europe, while at the same time they are re-
joicing at the many millions of dollars which the
war ornaments causing to flow into the pockets
Of the business men,
'0The German people will meet the charge levelled
against the nation with fear and trembling; no,
remembering its great mission in the future it will
stand erect and not cringe or grow1."

and be ready to make end of the war be-
fore half the world is into heap of ruins
and flower of its manly strength lies dead on the
battlefield"

Eliminating Waste.
alton

Before the war our European neighbors regarded
America a nation of wasters-and realize
that their conception was not far from being true
We were too busy producing and there was SO little
difficulty in securing material that could
not take the time to watch the scrap pile. The ma
tionaI trait of wastefulness too deeply rooted
to admit of eliminating except through a radical
change in economic conditions
But the has awakened and shown us what
years of education could not have pictured. In
creasing demands for support of various war
funds has brought the necessity of thrift and
elimination of waste. This is of the compensa-
tons of the war.
noteworthy instance of what actually has been
done through the hearty cooperation of an army of
10000 workmen, large portion of whom work
ing government orders, is the performance of
large tire factory Ohio in effecting in one year
salvage of So 100000 worth of that nigh:
unnecessarily have been wasted altogether This
is a larger amount than the output of finished pro-
concerns.
In general way, wastes in a great rubber fac
tory consist of rubber, fabric cement, metal paper
and power. There other wastes. however, that
contribute TO the total if allowed to go IN
checked The Goodyear experience is that it is not
difficult to cooperation in waste elimination
from American worknen where saving is made as
easy as wasting-that it requires no extra effort
for workmen to throw waste materials in a recep-
tacIe provided for them than it to throw them
the floor.

Even in the keystone state. famed the home o.

direction of the local board The council
of Philadelphia demanded that the language be
barred from the public schools In Pittsburgh the
German texts only taken from the students,
but tons of the volumes burned though they
were under the ban of heresy.
Milwaukee, famed for its Germans has risen
against the language to such extent that in the
high schools those electing to study German were
so less than they a year ago, and many have
chosen French and Spanish from the modern lam
guage lists. wisconsin leaves much of her educa-
ton local option but strong adiuration to patriot
ism and unity of spirit have been issued by the
state board
DR.. L. D. Coffman, dean of education of the Uni

before the association quoted from the official quar-

the following significant passage:
Work rendered in the interest of the German
school noble service rendered to the German

FRIDAY, THE 18TH
By Mary Lucas.

With a sigh of relief, pretty Ruth
Fierce looked up as she finished
casting off the sweater she had been
knitting for the Red Cross. In an
other moment, however, her look Of
relief changed to one of trouble
She had Just remembered that it
was Friday. the 18th, her unlucky
day. Ruth never liked to begin any
thing or complete anything on this
day. so it was with an angry excla-
nation that she picked up the
sweater and ran into the house.
She burst into the dining room,
where her mother was busy setting
the table for dinner, and exclaimed:
There! l just had TO finish that
sweater ON Friday, the 18th. Some
thing is surely going to happen
now. l never knew it to fail" And
Ruth burst out crying. Mrs. Pierce,
knowing her daughters supersti-
ton on this point, laughingly said:
Why, Ruthie. you are being a reg
ular Calamity Jane. The sweater
is finished. so what is the use of
crying? Although Friday, the 18th
has always proved unIuclTy for you,
