RUSS RUBLE WORTH II CENTS
Currency Values Fixed by British Al.
thor.ties to Aid Archan9el
Government.

London Northern Russia's new ru-
Bile currency, that is. the currency ar
ranged by the British government to
assist the Archangel provisional gov
ernment in stabilizing finances, has a
fixed rate of exchange of 10 rubles to
one pound. That places the ruble at
pence, roughly IL cents in American
money.
Exchange on the old rubles, both
those issued under the imperial gov
ernment and the Kerensky govern
ment, has been extremely unstable
throughout the bolshevik regime in all
parts of Russia.
The distribution Of money is uneven.
Money famines are constantly appear
ING in many sections, regardless of the
fact that all money presses are kept
going day and night.

GRATEFUL FOR COLD WATER
Thirsty Fighters Went on Their Way
Blessing the Thoughtfulness OF
That Red Cross Worker.

There was plenty of water in X, but
a tin mug Of it was more deadly than
q German machine gun. It's iinpossi-
BILE TO push two or three hundred thou
sand soldiers back and forth over a
locality, especially when half of them
are Germans and there isn't time to
clean up after they have been de-
feated, and keep the water supply un-
affected. And when. as is the case
often, the water wasn't very pure to
begin with, it's not at all wise to daily
with the idea of drinking it. But what
can you do when you've been out all
day fighting and pursuing Germans
and ycur canteen's empty and the roof
of your mouth feels like a vulcanized
scrubbing board?
That's the thought that came to a
Red Cross field service man during
the hottest fighting in August. 1t was
hot in two senses. The bullets flew
and the sun melted. And the Red
Cross man took out his largest mar
mite and filed it with water that was
cool and purified. He kept it full all
day and every soldier that passed that
way had a drink of water. 1t was
water they wanted just then. A little
initiative on the part of one man made
the soldiers as he himself put it "ab-
surdly grateful" But after struggling
across fields and roads all day in the
hot sun, well-well men do become ab-
surdly grateful for drink Of cool
water.-From a Red Cross Scrapbook.

FARMERS ASKED

Special Appeal on Behalf of

Out by Washington Repre-
sentative of National Grange.

Every farmer in America is ex-

who has sent the following letter to
the officers of every farm grange in
the United States:
Victory Liberty is the slogan to1
the new loan. The drive is to begin
April q, for the sale Of six billion
dollars in Victory Liberty Bonds.
These two words visualize all that is
best in American spirit. American
farmers must respond to this appeal.

Millions Of soldiers must be brought

AMERICANS LEARN TO HANDLE

Russians. Their agitators were
their revolt. The Americans gave
the orders and the German machine
gunners fired into the air. The
Russians continued their stampede,
and after another order the stream
of fire swept the crowd Of bolsheviks.
A dozen men fell and the rest were
cowed at once. The camp has been
orderly since.
A typical experience occurred at
Ruh leben, near Berlin. Colonel
Ryan, Red Cross commissioner, WIS.,
tied the camp and was investigating
some needs. A swarm of, Russians
surrounded his car and refused to
let him leave. The leaders Of their
soviet presented certain demands.
including more food, immediate re-
turn home and release Of an unruly
leader who had been locked up.
Colonel Ryan Listened to their de-
mands and talked over each point

difficulty Colonel Ryan persuaded the
Russians to keep quiet.

Americans some valuable lessons,

not a new problem, but is rather an
old problem with a new name. Ap-
plication of force does not settle the
trouble, except temporarily, nor does
the application of diplomacy, az the
Americans have learned in dealing
with the uprisings. The loss of con-
fidence in any authority, the feeling
that they are continually wronged,

which have to be nursed along like

"A. HOLDS FUTURE OF
PICTURES, SAYS FOX

"The future of the motion picture
Hes in the Industrial field. Such, Is
the opinion of F.. D. Fox, Of Mime
apolis; who is prominent In motion
picture circles of the United States
who was in Bemidji , today.
"The advertising value of the motion
picture today" continued Mr. Fox,
5..is little appreciated, but producers,
exhibitors and the business public are
rapidly arriving at an understanding
OF its true significance"
Mr.. Fox, who is the maker Of the
clever daily news film which Is shown
by the st. Paul and Minneapolis mo-
tion picture houses operated by
Finkelstien and Ruben, owners Of the
largest picture exhibitors corporation
in the world came to Bemidji with
F., l.. Morse, Of the Morse Rubber
company, to secure pictures of the
C. w. Jewett company garage that
they may be used for publicity pur-
poses. Motion pictures of the garage
force, a new car leaving the garage.
a new coupe, the girl at the gasoline
pump and the service car were taken.
Mr.. Fox also went to the fish
hatchery at the power dam where he
secured an interesting picture Of
work being done in spawning, show
ing the manner in which pike are
milked of their eggs. He also went
to the Itasca state park where he Sc
cured q picture of the headquarters
of tAe Mississippi river. These films
will be used in the daily news feature
library. which Mr.. Fox maintains for
the Twin City show houses, and will
bring valuable advertising to Be-
midi. .s-.
That the popularity of the motion
picture play house will continue and
expand just as long as the producers
take sufficient interest in their films
and the exhibitors show proper
Judgment in the selection of their
program, is the opinion of Mr..
Fox. He has been IN the motion pic
ture business for many years, and
for a time was one of the Sennett
comedy directors at Hollywood, Calf.
He served as secretary of the fourth
precinct draft board in Minneapolis.
Mr. Fox made the film, miles Of

vide Christmas cheer for Mill City
boys serving overseas. Mr. Fox, Mr..
