A. secretaries to refuse the goods when the boys haven't got the "clackers' is a situation hard to understand on the part of the soldiers The secretaries all know that s40,000,0 900 subscribed by the people at home has brought the wonderful Y. NJ c. A. canteens to France, and it sends the secs to the shell zones with the goods.
 But the doughboys go over to the Salvation Army shack somewhere d. ways in the battle zone-and if they haven't 'clacker" for doughnut they get the dOughnut anyway. The Sal Vation Army seems to keep books, but with a policy permitting of 'clacker'' scarcity in districts where "clackers' are not to be had in quantity. The Y. M. c. A. policy is dictated not by the secretaries. It cost this Missouri Bap- list secretary five francs from his own pocket to keep tthe doughboys in matches today. And to his generosity he has added an unconscious ability to order the congregation to "come through with your 'cla ckers' wher he passes the collection box some time in the future back in the Missouri Baptist church.

HAD NO "CLACKERS"
 GOT "SEC'S" CHANGE
(New York Tribune)

Y. NJ. C. A. secretaries working in shelled zones. where they sell cigar cites. chocolate and cakes to American soldiers. are laboring under an em- barrassing handicap, which they them selves realize but cannot correct
 If the doughboy who has walked two kilometers to buy a little supply of smokes and delicate food from the Y. NJ. C. A. man hasn't the exact change in francs and centimes, and the secre- tarv can't extract that change from the pasteboard change box before him, then the doughboy is out of luck
 Today several hundred doughboys heard that a 'sec' had settled down in a small village close up to the bat tie zone, and they began to crave dam ties. Some were from the artillery, others from medical stations and sim liar places where an hour or two away makes little difference-of course. with permission of an officer. Some walked good distances, and incidentally passed crossroads and other spots where enemy shells have bad habit of fall ing. Tn fact, they risked their lives to say How do you do?'' to the sec
 The "sec" was in a dugout. not be- cause it was more comfortable there. but primarily because he didn't want boche shell to muss up his stock Tn trade.
 Soldiers formed a long line outside and down the steps of the dugout. They seemed to be loaded with D. l0, 20 and 50 franc notes In addition to other things tfe "sec" had matches to sell at the cost per box of 'clacker,' a coin of copper about the size of an American half dollar. Everybody wanted matches. and few had "clack- ers.' Changing bills of various de- nominations and a box of matches with every bill soon produced dearth of "olackers. But the demand for matches continued And the sec was up against it.
 The sec was a trim little man of about forty, from Missouri and he had been deacon of the church out there. He admitted as much. He spoke cor rect English at all times, except insofar as his constant contact with American doughboys had unconsciously marred English.
 You men up there," he called. 'I am watching my supply of clackers slowly disappear. because you fellows all want to buy matches with 50-franc notes
 Now. I've got the goods for every body. but if you haven't got clackers you're going to be ut-a-luck.'
 Tn fact. I'm kinda out luck my self, because I've got to turn in cash 'clackers and all, for these goods am selling. If I count up short I'll have to pay. Now. you boys help me out and come through with the 'cackers.
 Outside of the wonderful amount of good that is accomplished by the Y M. c. A. in the war zones, the strict

 (This is the first news to come out of Russia of an attempt being made against the life of the new German ambassador at Moscow. His prede- cessor Count von Mirbach, was as sassnated).
 Shots were heard everywhere day and night and motor lorries filled with armed soldiers dashed madly through the streets with utter disregard for the life of civilians
 Even Helpless and Old Arrested.
 Men who have refused to fight the | Czecho- SlOvaks on the Volga have been arrested. Even the helpless and paralytic and the old women. more than so years old, have been taken l into custody.
 Such is the wild campaign carried on by the Bolsheviki under the guise of suppressing a counter revolution.

 Harass Educated Classes.
 Not content with seizing the prop erty of the educated classes the Bol- sheviki are now harasslng them in every possible way. A brutal class war is encouraged by exhortations daily in the Bolshevik newspapers to continue attacks upon the bougeoisie and even to take their lives. But bad as con- dltlons are now in Moscow and in Petrograd, worse situation is expect ed by the intelligent classes if an in terregnum takes place. The spirit of vengeance is so strong and the feeling so bitter against the Jewish leaders. arrivals here from Russia say. that rioting against the Jews generally is feared. Such riots never aee confined to one class in Russia, but expand into general murder and plunder
 The apparent abandonment of European Russia by the Germans has led to the belief that the experience in Ukraine has caused them to cease in their efforts to establish a monarchy or to support any other new govern iiiNhl iiltllulN tD lHtlll.
 Plead For Assistance. The Russians are pleading for out side assistance to cure them of their political troubles. The constitutional democrats and other bourgeoisie friendly to the Germans are now turn ing to the entente allies since the de- feat of the Germans on the western front and the success of the Czecho- Slovaks; Murman and Vladivostok movements
 The constitutional democratic party and the other parties of the extreme right, however. are in such disfavor with the great mass of Russians of the center that foreign diplomats are not willing to take them seriously.
 Movement Gains Support.
 Tho Czecho- Sovak movement be- yond the River Volga has gained the support of factions favoring a con stituent' assembly and it is making the more reactionary programs impossible as Siberia generally is conceded to be the key to reconstruction in European Russia

Their whereabouts is unknown, but General Savinkoff is reported to be in Siberia.

Arsenate Of Lime as an Insecticide

The Missouri College of Agri-
culture suggests the use of cal
cium arsenate (arsenate of lime)
as an insecticide in place of Paris
green or arsenate of lead. 1t
has the advantage of being much
cheaper and of sticking on the
plants even better than arsenate
of lead. Like arsenate of lead,
it is a slow poison, and to make
it act more quickly the college
suggests that a small amount Of
Paris green -four ounces to fifty
gallons Of solution be added.
Spraying materials generally are
high, but so are fruits and vege-
tables, and spraying will pay now
as well as ever before. Southern
