Guns.

Archangel, Wednesday, Feb. IL -
(By the Associated Press)-American
reinforcements, marching over 80
miles of a forest trail, reached the
hard pressed British and Russians in
the region of Sredmakrenga yester-
day The result was that the Boil
sheviIi, who had been launching
strong attacks in this region, retired
TO the southwark, apparently aban-
doning their offensive move.
The Bolsheviki, evidently fearing
that they would be cut off in the rear,
withdrew before the Americans
reached Sredmakrenga.
Conditions on other sectors of the
northern Russian front were I'M
changed today.
London, Feb. 13 - The BoIshevik
force fighting the Allies in northern
Russia comprise 5000 men, with
ISL machine guns, 66 field guns and
nine six-inch guns, according to a
statement from authoritative quarters
here.
An attempt is being made to stand
ardize the organization and equip
ment of the Soviet armies, and schools
for officers and aviators have been
opened.
General Vetritis, Lett, has been
appointed communicating chief of all
the Soviet armies.
The bread ration of the Soviet
troops has been reduced from two
pounds to one pound daily, the infor-
milton shows, and there are other in
dications that the Bolsheviki are suf-
fering from a food shortage.

During the last two decades thou

When Quentin Roosevelt. son of

the wonderful things that abound
there.
Originally Mr.. Schmid was a floral
decorator. At the age of twelve, he
entered the establishment of his father
and eventually became an expert
maker of floral designs. Many a
White House reception and notable
funeral were enhanced by Mr..
Schmid's work. In 1877 Mr.. Schmid
became interested in taxidermy. He
took a course in that work from a
local expert.
About thirty years ago, while still
in his fathers place, Mr. Schmid was
given a wild canary bird by a young
woman, who told him to kill and
stun 1t. Instead. Mr. Schmid sent to
Baltimore for an elaborate cage for
it and kept the bird.
Admiring the cage, a friend asked
Mr.. Schmid where he obtained II and
requested one like Il. Mr.. Schmid sent
for a second one. This also attracted
attention, and 1t wasn't long before
Mr.. Schmid received many requests
for cages. Finally he ordered six IN
a bsnch and hung them up in his
shop.
IAN acquaintance dropped in one
day." says Mr.. Schmid. noticed the
cages and offered 20 sell me some
canaries. I took him up ard that
was the beginning Of my present busi-
ness"
Mr.. Schmid is one of Washing
toms best known Masons He is a
member of all branches Of the
Masonic order and is past grand
monarch of the Yelled Prophets OF
the United States and Canada.
AS grand monarch in 1918. he
covered more territory travelling in
the interests of that organization
than any previous leader Of the
order.
MIR. Schmid declnred yesterday
that his interest and activity in
Masonry surpasses that in his busi-
ness. His three, sons are members
of the order. II hope to see the
day when my three grandsons will
be Masons," he said.
MIR. Schmid is a member of the
Board of Trade and the Chamber of
Commerce.
He was born at 'Hasting. n. Y. in
1856. his parents coming from
switzerland. MIR. Schmid has been
washingtonian since 1s5S.
