more than the more formal and dig

The drill and patriotic song by the
fourth grade was without doubt the
most appropriate and appealing.
while the Hiawatha production by the
fifth and sixth grades was certainly
the most picturesque and interesting.
The short colonial cantata by the
seventh and eighth grades was well

best one part in the program. that
was the girls chorus. which was a
very high class number for children
of the district school.
The teachers are to be compliment

WANT NO CHANGES IN
CHROME Properties.

The following statement from
Henry NJ. Parks, director of the Ore
gon bureau of mines and geology, at
Portland, will be of interest to those
engaged in the development of
chrome properties:
Word is Just received from Wash
ington that pending the arrangement
of certain details in connection with
the administration OF the war min
erals act it is very important that
the present status of all leases or
contracts in relation to the, chrome
industry be maintained without
change. 1t will doubtless be for the
best interest for all concerned in the
chrome industry that all leases or
contracts which have been in force
during the past few weeks or months
and which may have expired should
be, voluntarily renewed. It is, not
probable that new properties nor
new owners Of old properties will be
able to receive benefits under the
provisions Of the act.'

AMERICAN AV|ATORs BRAVE STORMS,
BUT WINDS AND ELECTRICITY DAFFLE

San Francisco, CAL, Nov. 21.-
Typical of the experiences OF United
States army aviators, whose field-to-
field flights in the central and east
ern part of the country are expected
to make up an interesting chapter
in the history Of American aviation,
Is that of Captain F. NJ. Bartlett who
flew from Fort Scott, ILL.,, to Kelly
Field, LOO miles. through sunshine
and storm.
This story OF Captain Bartlett's
difficult flight is given by the United
States committee on public informa-
tion.
He covered the 341 miles between
Bellville and Clark field, Memphis,
Tennessee in hours and 8 minutes
at an average speed OF 10 miles an
hour. favored by stiff wind from
the Great Lakes and at an altitude
of between 1000 and 5000 feet. On
the second leg of the trip between
Memphis, Tennessee, and Payne
Field, West Point, Miss, wishing
to stop for lunch, he descended and
was close to the ground over an
abandoned race track when he sud
denly found the air so thin he knew
he could not get Off this ground
once he landed, He had difficulty In
getting back to the upper currents
again but by following flock of
birds which flew in ascending circle,
he secured enough altitude to con-
tinue. Approaching West Point fine
air was again encountered but over
this town he ran into an electrical
storm and was forced to descend.

This pretty little city of Belgium

Americans tonight, the willing gift
of 10000 inhabitants. to whom, the
doughboys from America today
brought deliverance after so months
under the yoke of the Boches, who
left it so little ahead of the Ameri-
cans entry that some of thems were
overtaken.
Truly, to these Belgians, America
is Gods country. for it represents
to them not only their saviours, their
rescuers. but the nation which has
fed them for four years, With tears
in their eyes they assured me today
that they would have starved to
death had 1t not been for America
and in their enthusiastic joy they
declared they would be slaves Of the
Hun still, If it had not been for the
Americans.

REIGN OF TERROR
FANATICS HOLD UPPER HAND
Hundreds Killed Daily. Says Social.

Bolsheyiisism

Archangel. Oct. 22.-(correspon-
dence OF the Associated Prcss) -
Russia is fast bleeding TO death
through a reign OF terror which is
woBo than that OF the French reyo-
luton. and Il IL time the nations OF
the earth came here TO put down one
OF the worlds greatest evils." Presi-
dent Nicholas Tschaikovsky OF the
provisional government of the north.
told correspondent OF the Associ-
ated Press today.
"it Ia no longer question OF poll
ties" he continued. Inside the Boil
shevtk lines tho situation is worse
than tho French reign OF terror. Vic
Tins executed now must be counted
by tho tens OF thousands. All hair
splitting political reasons aside. the
world must know that the Bolshevlks
are no longer even a party. but are
now merely q Group OF men deter
mined 20 hold what they have seized
by the merciless slaughter of those
who oppose them.
ut Is now only the question OF
putting down an evil. Persons es-
; Gaping from Moscow. Petrograd and
Volgoda and reaching here bring in
disputable stories OF the executions.
The situation seems beyond the con-
troll OF some Bolshovik leaders who
themselves are revolving at the blood
shed"
President Tschaikovsky said he re-
Gently cabled TO President Wilson
urging tho immediate dispatch OF
more troops.
Nothing can bring Russia out OF
this chaos until the Bolshevik terror
has been quashed by the force Of
arms" said Tschaikovsky. "The
force now here is unable to do this
quickly. Meanwhile hundreds are
dying daily.
THE world must understand that
Bolshevism. like Imperialism. Is foe
TO democracy. II is In Russia mere
dictatorship. a group OF men holding
sway by force OF arms. They seize
every straw, falsifying logic to justi-
fy themselves. Az an example they
now declare that the proposed league
of nations is only another scheme to
give power 10 the bourgeosie AGAINST
the working men"
Perhaps the world will naturally
ask what Russia is doing to help her
self" said Tschaikovsky, "and I can
only answer that we are doing our
best. A recent example is the reor-
ganisation OF the government Of the
north. Now every party and every
class is represented. Forgetting pol
ftics they are turning their efforts to-
ward putting down the BolsheTk
evil. We are mobllizing our forces
but the allies must help"
