The entire Russian Jewry struggle
against Bolshevism. This is true
not only with regard to the bourg-
eoisie but to the democratic classes
of the Russian Jewry as well. 1t is
sufficient to say that not single
Jewish Socialist faction has joined
the Bolsheviki. All political factions
of the Russian Jewry are struggling
against Bolshevism.
The great majority of the Jewish
population, including many of the
poor, are being classed by the Boil
geoisie, and every place where the
Bolsheviki rule, the Jewish popula-
tion, not to speak of very insignifi-
cant exceptions, is suffering and
starving.
The Bolshcvist regime has de-
stroyed the industries and the trade,
ana the Jewish population, which
made its living mostly through par
ticipation in the industrial and COM
mercial life, is suffering probably
more than other nationalities. At
the same time, the Bolsheviki are
prosecuting all religions. and the
Jewish religious institutions have
suffered from their despotic rule not
less than the institutions of the
Christian religion.
The anti-Semites are making very
WIDE use of the fact that Trotzky
is a Jew, but the participation of sew
erai Jews among the Bolshevist
leaders does not nullify the fact that
the russian Jewry, in its overwhelm-
ing majority, struggles actively
asalnnt Bolshevism. 1t is significant
that Bolshevism spreads mostly in
Central and Eastern Russia where

impression that the Russian demo-
cratic intelligentsia has disappeared,
and that the only two factors work
ing in Russia at present are the Boil
sheViki on the one hand and the
Armies of Admiral kolchak and
General Denikine on the other.
l wish to emphasize that the Rus
sian democratic intelligentsia whose
task it is to build n new Russia has
not disappeared but, on the contrary,
has been working very intensively
during the last months, although
this work is not visible to the out
side world. The Russian democ-
cratic forces are concentrated around
Admiral Kolchak and General
Denikine. They are also working in
Paris, London and other centers
abroad.
The immediate task before the
Russian democrats is the establish
ment, in cooperation with the Rus

The shepherding of the exclusive
world into the royal enclosure at the
Ascot races has been almost the
only semi official gathering OF so
ciety, and pressure upon the Lord
Cham berlain's office for admission
consequently has been more fierce
than heretofore.
To the stranger London may seem
lively and even gay, but it is a
restaurant and theatergoing liveli-
ness like the customary life of New
York and Paris. The war protiteers
are spending recklessly in their way,
but among old fashioned people
there is a general sentiment that
display is not in harmony with the
times. and for many it would be inn
possible If they desired it.
Restaurant Life Curtailcd
Even the restaurant life is much
curtailed. Suppers have been elimi-
mated and there are hardly dozen
places in this largest metropolis OF
the world found open later than ten
O'Clock. The midnight wayfarer sees
women in evening dress with men
in guards uniform or formal black
buying coffee and sandwiches at a
sidewalk stall elbow to elbow with
crowd of soldiers, cabmen and
miscellaneous night wanderers, a
picture understandable for the ,old
London.
Still, with its life war-shorn of
much that was almost sacred to its
ancient aristocracy, England could
never be otherwise than picturesque
ard fascinating The Derby came
into its own again as the greatest
popular sporting event of the world,
as Ascot is the most patrician in its
atmosphere. The guards regiment
performed the historic ceremony of
trooping the colorS in Hyde Park on
the Kings birthday although in
dull khaki instead of the old array
of scarlet and blue. The coach with
the sleek four-in- hand starts from

a OIEER ACTING BIRD

The yellow breasted chat is an &C.
centric bird both when it is singing
and in flying. says the American For
estry Association, of Washington,
which is conducting the national
birdhouse building contest that is
arousing great interest among school
children in this phase of outdoor
life. When these birds sing their
musical effort seems to require a
great deal of flirting of the tail and
twisting of the head; and even when
they are flying their tail jerks up
and down giving them a strange ap-
pearance. The song of this bird is
scarcely worthy of the name, hav-
ing been called a series of grotes-
que syllableS."

LONDON STILL WAR-SHORN

London-The first summer of the

mere ghost of the old London So
cial season which formerly for three
months after Easter transformed
Belgravia and Mayfair into a spec
tacle by day and night.
In other years, before the war
wrought its changes, the early weeks
of summer saw the great London
houses thrown open for entertaining
on n scale which no other European
capital knew. Their blazing win
dows at night told of receptions and
dances on a grand scale. Court was

EXCELs THE NIGHTINGALE

The hermit thrush is declared TO
be the most talerted and brilliant
singer in the world not even except
ing the nightingale, says the Ameri-
can Forestry Association, Washing
ton, whose national bird-house build
ing contest is arousirg great interest
among school children in bird life
conservation. AS musicians all the
thrushes are gifted but the hermit
thrush is the prize singer of the tribe.

WARBLERs ALL KINDS

Not taking into account the hu-
man beings who are sometimes re-
ferred to as warblers, you will find
on looking into bird book that there
are many kinds of warblers, rang
ing alphabetically all the way from
bay-breasted warblers to yellow
rumped warblers, says the American
Forestry Association, Washington,
which is conducting the rational
bird-house building contest. II you
had a collection of them all together
they would take in about all the
colors of the rainbow, yellow, orange,
chestnut, black, white, green, gray,
brown and other colors with num-
erous shades entering into their
beautiful plumage.
