HERE is HOW RUSSIAN
BOLSHEvIKI CONDUCTED
ONE CONFISCATED MINE

Antinteresting object lesson Of the
way the simon-pure brand of Russian
Bolshevism in industry really works
is afforded by Carl Ackerman in his
book, Training the Bolshey.ki,' just
published by the Scribners:
Il recall meeting the manager of a
goldmine near Ekaterinburg, an
American who had lived at the mine
years representing the foreigners who
had bought and developed it When
the Bolsheviki controlled the local
Soviet. they decreed him out of office,
and decreed the mine the property or
the goldmine. Their dreams were
realized. They were no longer Ia
borers: they were owners
"One might have thought that wor-
kers suddenly made point owners OF
a rich mine would have organized and
developed it. but they didn't. The
mine was their property. That satis-
fled them but the machinery was
made in France and was therefore
symbol of Capitalism, so they destroy
ed all the mach nes-machines which
ad been manufactured and brought
TO these shafts at an expense of 1.4Oo,
O0Ofrancs. Then they began working
the mines in the most primitive fash
ion until the labor became too diff
cult, and one after another the miners
drifted away"

MARKETS BUREAU HAS
GATHERED FACTS AS TO
COST OF PRODUCTION

The Federal market bureau has
data that viii be placed at the dis
posal of congress when that body be-
gins investigating the high cost of liv-
,ng will DC information gathered dur
in the past six years by the city mar
kets ira, ch OF the Bureau OF Markets.
This section of the department OF agri-
culture Is chiefly concerned with the
establishing OF economic urban dis
trib,aion ~ stems for all classes Of
produce.
Recauye o. the character of it's work
and for want of authority to enforce
the adoption of its plans by commu-
fiities. the division of city markets has
to coniine itself TO advising munich
psIities and groups of citizens con-
cerning the means of eliminating ex-
pensive overhead charges and thus re-
ducing cost standards. Principal
among the recommendations of the di-
vision will be permanent terminal
plans. reduction of return hauls. and
sanitary and regulated market facili-
tics. and these suggestions, 1t Is said.
can De worked out SO as to materially
reduce living costs. 1t is not claimed
they will have any effect nn the pres
ent emergency, but that they will sta
b".zc future conditions and so stand
ardiza conditions in the locality where
they are put into effect as to make
living costs more easily regulated bv
state eEd municipal laws and ordi.
EnnCeE.
another feature of the Bureau of
Markets fight against the high cost Of
livInk IS the produce inspection serv-
ice, Low in the second year of its on
forcement. This service is intended
as a protection by producing shippers
middlemen and railroads handling
produce shipments. Under the in
spec.ion service shipments to all
principal terminals and cities are in
spected on request and their condi-
ton on arrival is reported. On this
report. accepted as prima facie evil

aGe and spoiage of produce in tran

TaIlless Now.
Di Vico's comet should now be
within 300,000,000 miles of the sun.
but at that distance away Its gases
are frozen solid by the zero cold of
distant space. When, however. it ap-
proaches as near the sun as the earth.
the vivifying rays OF that luminary
will melt and expand those gases and
set up connective currents among
them, some of them boiling up to-
wards the sun, and others being driv-
en- back by the impact of the suns
rays. thus forming that weird thing
q comets tail.
The comet itself will probably have
n bright nucleus. surrounded by a
hazy. nebulous envelope of gases,
which the telescope will show as per-
meated with clouds of illuminated
dust, swirling and streaming in a
state of violent agitation. In anS
event It will be an interesting object
for astronomical investigation, and If
its course should lie within a few mil
lion miles OF the earth, it will be fine
spectacle for the unscientific observer.
There is another comet belonging
to the Neptune family which will be
due a year later. 1t is Brorson's COZ
ct ofi74 years. 1t may be delayed
year or so. or 1t may arrive in ad-
vance OF its predicted time, and come
into our skies at the same time. When
II does make its next appearance 1t
will be studied with better instru-
ments than any which existed three
quarters of a century ago. and by
means of that are boiling within its
furnace OF seething commotion and

In the year 1916, the year Leverrier
discovered the planet Neptune, Di vi
co, an italian astronomer, detected a
faint patch OF light which proved TO
be n comet on Its way toward the sun,
writes w. II. Knight In the Brooklyn
Eagle. II came from distant space.

earth and the sun In March OF that
year, and was visible for 10 weeks
Its orbit was computed by DR.. Pierce
of the Harvard observatory and II was
found to have a long period of "a

~ due to make its reappearance for
the first time since that orbit was de-
ter!nined.
Bn.ley's comet, which shone mag
nificently in our skies in 1910. has n
period of rs years, and both
Halley's and Di Vico's comets have
their aphelion, or farthest distance
from the sun, few million miles be-
yond the orbit OF Neptune. a giant
planet on the outpost of our solar sys-

Halley's. in which case II viii be due

tenn some time during the years of
1919 or 1920. The reason the exact
time of its reappearanee can not be

MAKING HISTORY HUMAN.

One might suppose off-hand that human history
cannot be anything else than human" Anyone who
enertains that supposition, however is probably not
very well acquainted with general run OF historical
textbooks. especially those printed use There
are now signs of revolt against the uninteresng fruit
less. dryasdus method in which many of those books
written and taught.
The president the board of education in one
OF the big cities demands history be studied in the
schools not as string of and dates but as a
comprehensive human review of the of society
and development of nations
He insists, too. that historical events shall not be
warped and misrepresented from a mistaken sense of
patriotism because real Americanism does not require
that the textbook should euogize America and Americans
beyond all truth. He children to get better an
probation of the other nations OF the world and our
past and present relations them
This is a desirable thing do as ANYBODY who Is Al
all interested in history will recognize But one big
serious obtrudes itself If history is taught in this
it will certainly interest children more and
they will understand it deal better; but will it
help them to pass their examinations?
Perhaps that question be answered by
asking another: Is passing examinations the main
object OF instruction?
A plain citizen without any PEDAGOGICAL nreiudces
will probably that If children can't pass their his
tory examinations without having heads crammed
with lot OF useless and dates to the exclusion
of real Information, then much the worse for the
examinations.
