Expected to Bring About Communistic
Stage Similar to French Revolution

PETROGRAD, May 14.-Mos-
COW has been in the throes Of
civil war since Saturday evening.
Reports indicate that the city
for the past few days has been
the scene of violent street fight
ing between the Bolsheviki and
the anarchist forces.
The latter are we'll organized

rear future has evidently broken
cut in full flame, and it appears
to be the result of well laid
plans.
If it makes head and con-
tinues to sweep on, the Germans
will inevitably be compelled to
send large forces of troops into
the Moscow district. Moscow is
the capital of the Bolsheviki gov
ernment.
The Bolsheviki are faced by
the same kind of warfare they
made against Kerensky. If given
half a chance, it is fully expect
ed that the anarchists will bring
about a condition similar to the
communistic stage of the French
revolution.

FAMINE OF HAIRPINS
NEW HORROR OF WAR
Women of England Already
Driven to Barber and American
Sisters Are Trembling

word of warning comes to American
women from across the water, Save your
hairpins! -
Even if you have half dozen packages
on hand don't get reckless and let them
go into the vacuum cleaner.
Speak sharply and firmly to your husband
if you him surrepttiously sneak few
from your dressing table. Tell him that
there is a war on and that he cannot have
your hairpns to clean his pipe nor to hang
a paper shade over his light nor for any of
his other wasteful and idiotic habits.
Women of England are facing hairpin
famine There is less than three months
supply in the country. it is said, and the
authorities who control the issue of metals
have decided that these valuable materials
shall not be given to women to be scattered
broadcast with womens habtual lavishness
Women as a last resort are hesitating be-
tween cutting off their tresses and braiding
them Into pigtails The general choice prom
ises to be in favor of the former and it Is
suggested that the cast-off locks be used for
blankets. coats, sweaters and covers for hot
water bottles. Many bizarre designs in hair
cuts have been developed, it is said and the
woman of taste may select style that is
subtly expressive of her personality.
Men who from an innate sense of economy
have been in the habit of collecting hairpins
from the corners of chairs, picking them up
from the carpets in the train of their wives
and boarding them half-consciously in their
tobacco tins now stand to realize fortunes
They may sell the hairpins as curios and
relics or dispose of them one at time to
extravagant women at fabulous profit.
As vet American women are not In danger
of being deprived of this aid TO hairdressing
but II is suggested that framed notices be
hung above dressing tables to the effect that
'Hairpins won't win the war. but don't waste

WHEN WOMEN TAKE CHARGE
Bit of Ancient Chinese History That Is
Decidedly interesting Coming
Just at This Time.

In the World outlook Welthy p.
Honsinger gave this entertaining bit
Of ancient Chinese history Ii only
goes TO prove, once again, that There
is nothing new under the sun
In oldcn times, when, as Barrie tells
us, ''thc world was 50 young that
pieces of the original eggeholl still ad-
hered 10 it, long before the Tai Pings
or long-haircd rebels rayaged this part
Of China, the two provinces of kiangsi
and Eulaien were quarreling. The men
went out 10 fight and left the women
ut home, even as we do today. The
women did not know anything about
planting crops or pudding rice fields.
At first thcy just let things slide,
hoping the men would soon return.
But the feuds grew hercer and more
men were called out The fighting
reached the Ran and HSiu Kiang
Finally all the strong men disappeared
from their ancestral halls In the swift
years that followed the women found,
to their surprise, that they could make
the riCc shops prosper. More juGEs
were sailing up Gle river than in for
mcr days and clean little houses lined
the shore for long distances.
But although everything was going
beautifully and the women were max
ing more money than they ever had be-
fore, the feeling gradually grew that
no town could he complete without
husbands.
\ vote was accordingly taken and
the majority decided that husbands
should he imported

husbands were soon given to under

and imported mt that.

lands and rice shops. We Viii run this
town and see that no harm befalls the

So the women managed with high

just as our men liked to manage a
