parched under n blazing sun and has
seen virtually no rain for thirty six

ticular section have turned their faces
toward the cotton fields Of eastern Tex

The Women Of Russia.-Thc So
Wet republic has not realized the
ideals of Russian women and they
arc playing an important part in hast
ening its end. Their influence in this
connection Is being exerted even more
powerfully than 1t was in bringing the
dictatorship Of the proletariat into ex-
istence. Evidence Of this has been OBJ
served by a Stockholm correspondent
who came out Of Russia with refugees.
Maria Spiridonovo probably was the
most powerful leader in the establish
ment of the Bolsheviki power. AS the
recognized spokesman of the peasants
forming IS per cent Of the Russian
population she swung the peasant
strength into line and persuaded the
social revolutionaries Of the left to
Join the Bolsheviki. On July 4. eight
months later, she delivered startling
speech Of defiance to German oppres-
sion, which resulted in the assassina-
ton OF Count Won Mirbach. German
ambassador to Russia and announced
that the social revolutionaries Of the
left would make bitter war on the
Bolsheviki.
Several prominent officers have been
slain since Mile. Spiridonovo's declara-
tion and now Nikolai Leninc. idol of
the Bolsheviki. lies badly wounded by
the shots fired by Russian woman.
Dora Kaplan. a social revolutionist,
who said she placed her life In jeo-
pardy to save Russia and believed this
could be realized only through a con-
stituent assembly.
Mile. Spiridonovo and Mile. Kaplan
are educated women, the former n
teacher, the latter a medical student.
They are both about 80 years old.
The American army in France stands
higher morally than the civil popula-
ton, due to the influence for good
thrown around our soldiers by the Red
cross the Y. NJ. c. A., the Knights Of
Columbus and other agencies working
for their betterment. said DR.. Charles
s. Mcfarland. on his return after a
tour Of the western front in behalf Of
the Federal Council Of Churches OF
Christ Of America, Of which he In gen.
eral secretary. The civilian work OF
the Red Cross and other special agen-
cies over there Ia already rebuilding
and reconstructing the life Of France
and winning for America the whole
heart OF the people" said Dr. Mac
Farland.
