Edward F. Trefz was a member
of the American Food Mission sent
to England, France and Belgium
by Herbert Hoover in 1918 to in
vestigate food conditions abroad.
Upon his return and at the request
of the Food Administration he car
ried the message Of conservation to
all the great centers of the United
States and Canada. He spoke
throughout Canada for the Cana
dian Food Board and the following
article from the Regina Daily Post
tells it's own story:
"There were proud Americans in
Regina last night and with reason,
for the United States government
in sending Edward F. Trefz, rep
resentative of the Food Admins
tration Board of the United States,

volving miniature of the universe,
he presents his subject in a highly
absorbing and interesting manner.
It is not technical. Even a child
can follow and understand. Yet it
will give you new understanding
entirely Of the starry heavens and
the world you live in.
Although his lecture does not
seek in any way to avoid the math-
ematical features which inevitably
characterize any attempt to treat
matters astronomical, yet those
features are so skillfully concealed
by DR.. Carpenters remarkable apt
ness at illustration that they become
transformed into intensely interest
ing topics.

in Canada can equal him, none can
surpass him."
Edward F. Trefz comes to Chau-
tauqua this summer to talk on re-
construction problems. 1t is doubt
full if a more capable or a more bril-
liant man could have been secured.
He was one Of the organizers of the
National Chamber of Commerce at
Washington and for several years
field secretary Of this great organ
ization.
In the past eight years he has de-
livered 1891 addresses to business
men, speaking in every city in the
United States of 10000 and over.
His lecture on the second night,
"And Now-What?" attacks pres
ent day problems from the prac-
tical viewpoint of the business
world with a forcefulness, a clear
ness and an understanding that is
probably unequaled by anyone
else on the American platform today.

That Ida M. Tarbell, Americas
most famous publicist and woman
journalist, is to lecture at Chau-
tauqua is unquestionably one of the
biggest lecture announcements of
the year To hear Miss Tarbell on
any subject is Of unusual profit and
value but she comes to us now with
asubject of tremendous interest and
Importance, "The United States at
the Peace Conference"
Miss Tarbell has been in France
for several months reporting the
events of the Peace Conference for a
syndicate Of metropolitan papers.
She comes to your platform direct
from the scene Of the greatest con-
vention in the history Of the world
The Idaho Republican. [volume] (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1904-1932, 1919-06-17

and she comes with a remarkable
story.
Miss Tarbell needs no introduce
ton to any American. Her work
as publicist, an an author and as
a constructive journalist is known
wherever the English language is
spoken. Prominent among the
many books she has written are
"He Knew Lincoln" 'Life of
Napoleon Bonaparte," "The Bust
ness of Being a Woman" "The
Tariff of Our Times" and "The
Live of Abraham Lincoln"
Miss Tarbell will lecture on the
fourth night. The opportunity of
hearing this famous woman talk on
a subject so timely and Of such
Importance is one that no person
in this community can afford to miss.

PRIVATE PEAT

The Los Angeles Evening World
says that the mirth of the world
centers in three lightweight British
ers, Harry Lauder, Private Peat
and Charley Chaplin, neither of
whom is more than five feet in
height nor weighs more than 1870
pounds. Some Of us may raise a
question about one of these come
dians, but none will ever doubt that
Private Peat belongs in the list.

troublous days and he throws init
mate sidelights on the former Gar,
Rasputin, Kerensky, Lenine, Trot-
sky and other leading characters in
late Russian history.
The burning of the law courts,
the beginning Of the revolution, the
nights Of terror, are all parts of the
story told by this eminent English
divine. There is nothing sordid
about the lecture, nor anything dry.
In fact, it is sparkling all the way
through with DR.. Clare's keen sense
Of humor. In the darkest days Of
Petrograd he had the saving grace
Of humor and he brings it to his
audiences in a delightful manner.

achieved through overcoming
handicaps.

tallest and handsomest of the Cars
uncles, lived very unhappily with his first
wife, Princess Alexandra Of Greece. and
after her death married the colonePs beau
tiful wife.
The Car at first did not approve of the
marriage, but afterward fully forgave the
Grand Duke and his wife, who was the
most powerful parsonage at court before
the revolution. Though some episodes in
her career may have excited criticism, she
is undeniably a very brilliant and interest
ing woman.
The Grand Duke Paul's son by his first
wife, Grand Duke Dmitri, was the most
popular younger member of the imperial
family. He took leading part in the re-
moval of the impostor Rasputin. Through
his position in the imperial family he was
able to prevent the police from interfer-
ing and to promise immunity to the others
concerned.
Since the Cars death the Russian
,monarchists had spoken of Dmitri as the
most suitable occupant Of a restored
throne. This was evidently one reason
why the reVolutionists executed him.
Dmitri's sister, the Grand Duchess
Marie, who was for a short time Princess

his clothes and secreted In belts and sacks
he hastened across the Baltic to Finland.
There his first act was to subsidize liber-
ally one Of the contraband agents who
smuggle people and goods out Of Russia.
This was simply to keep him furnished
with information, horses and supplies.
He was determined to conduct the rescue
Of the Princess himself.
The Count carefully disguised himself
as a peasant OF the far interior Of Finland
almost a savage. Finland touches on
the Arctic circle and some Of its inhabi-
tants are really savages. The young
noblemanl accustomed to all the luxuries
of court life, made himself look as dirty
as possible, let his beard grow, dug his
hands into the earth and made himself as
grimy as any son Of the soil. On his head
he put frowzy old fur cap and on his
back dirty sheepskin coat. The rest Of
his costume was a miscellaneous cOllec-
ton of rags.
Then he supplied himself with a Finnish
peasants cart He selected remote part
Of the country and slipped across the Rus
sian frontier in the middle of dark night
He carried a stock of miserable turnips
and potatoes stored up during the Winter,
and some skinny rabbits and birds, to COM
plete the character.
In piercing cold he struggled on through
the desolate forests and frozen swampss
of this part of Russia. He depended on
the compass to guide him. He was obliged
TO eat the food he carried with him, for
he dared make no stops. Several times
he had disquieting encounters with Boil
sheVik outposts, but he saved himself by
At the end of thirty hours of great
hardship he reached the distant outskirts
Of Petrograd. In the distance he saw the
great gilded dome of St. Isaac's Cathedral,
which he knew so well.
He was able to stay here in safety, be-
cause he was engaged in calling very
welcome in the vicinity Peasants carry
ing anything eatable are eagerly well
coined in starving Petrograd, but they are
compelled to give up their goods at fixed
prices in the city, and so they stop outside
and dispose of them at an enormous profit.
His friends, the smugglers, sold his goods
for their own profit and at the same time
kept him informed about occurrences in
the city.
The Grand Duke Paul, his son, Grand
Duke Dmitri, and the Grand Dukes George
and Nicholas Mikhailovitch, had been in
prison for some weeks. On January %,
the day Count ShouValoff arrived at Petro-
grad, they had been transferred from the
Chpalernaia prison to the notorious st.
Peter and st. Paul fortress. Many people
thought it was step toward their liberia
ton, as the charges against them did not
appear to be taken seriously.
The next day they were taken, one by
one, from the large room in which they
had all been confined, to small dungeons
in the prison. There agents of the reyolu-
tionists visited them, one after the other.
and deliberately shot them with automatic
pistols pressed against their heads. Some
time after the first report of this tragedy
reached the outside world, It was stated
