SAYINGS OF SAGES

We sometimes meet with men
who seem to think that any in

The year passes quick, though
the hours tarry, and time bygone

it never would go while it was

When a man does a noble act,
date him from that. Forget his
faults. Let his noble act be the
standpoint from which you re-

adapted themselves TO the strange
conditions of that country with the
same facility with which Yankee tight
ing men have made themselves at
home in France, England, Italy and
other foreign countries during the last
year. Letters reaching America re-
Gently emphasize this interesting fact
This ability to readjust themselves
rapidly to any sort of condition or eli
mate or people has been one, of the
remarkable things about Americas
soldiers. English, French and Italian
army officers have marveled at it.
American army officers never tire of
talking about it. The dOughbOys them
selves never give this angle of the job
a thought. All countries look alike to
them so long as there is work to be
done. AS one of the boys in Arch
angel explains it:
1@merica started out to do some pinch
hitting for the world. Until the game
is over we're going to stick, no matter
how many extra innings are neces-
sary."
AS everyone knows, the American
and allied soldiers were sent to north
ern Russia several months ago, the
chief purpose of the expedition being
TO provide the nucleus of an army
around which those Russian soldiers
and civilians opposed to German domi-
nation could rally; a secondary reason
being the desire to head off the an
~ OIL orfS
of the country. All reports from Arch
angel indicate that the allied forces
are in complete control of the situa-
ton. These same reports say the sol
uiers are thoroughly enjoying the job,
which naturally leads to the cOnclu-
sion that they must be fairly comfort
able.
Preparations Made In Advance.
That such is the case is easier to
believe when one knows of the ex-
tenSive preparations made ahead by
the American and allied governments
and the American Red Cross to the
end that the soldiers shall lack moth
ing in the way of food, entertainment,
medical attendance, suitable clothing
and other comforts during their stay
in Russia. To the majority of persons
mere mention of Russia brings up pic
lures Of billiards, ice-bound huts,
dreary wastes, frozen populations, des-
titution, and all that sort of thing.
Some persons, familiar with history,
recall what Russian winter did to
Napoleons army and say the disaster
that met his valiant forces proved
that no one but natives can stand the
rigors of the near-arctic climate.
No attempt will be made here to pic
ture Archangel as a summer resort at
this time of the year. All the evidence
at hand indicates that it is cold
enough up there for four or FIVE
months TO suit the most enthusiastic
fresh-air advocate. One does not need
an electric fan TO keep cool in Arch
angel right now. But allowing for the
extreme severity of the winters up
that way, there isn't one chance in a

warm clothing and supplies of every
kind, they are prepared to give that
doughty old warrior the laugh.
If the shades of those soldiers of
NapOleOn'S army who persisted on the
historical retreat from Moscow are
still in Russia they must be amazed
at the eXtenSiveneSS of the arrange
ments that have been made to safe
guard the allied fighting men now in
that country. Long before the soldiers
reached Russia the allied governments
had completed arrangements for their
arrival, the experience of four years
of caring for vast forces of men under
all sorts of conditions, added to the ex-
pert knowledge of military men famil-
lar with the requirements of a Rus
sian campaign, making it possible to
provide for every conceivable contin-
gency.
Red Cross Sends Supplies.
Directly in the wake of the soldiers
and supplementing the efforts of the
allied governments in their behalf fol-
lowed the American Red Cross with
reserve stocks of foods and supplies
and the comforts that fighting men
have come to expect from the Red
Cross. Two shiploads of supplies of
all sorts provided by the American
Red Cross reached Archangel late in
September, one vessel, the Ascutney,
which left America, carrying 4,600
tons of food, drugs, soap and miscel-
laneous articles; the other, British
transport, loaded in London, having
on board 200 additional tons of sup
plies. Not satisfied with providing
this amount of reinforcement the
American Red Cross continued to
transfer supplies from London to
Archangel, allied war vessels keep
sing the harbor at that point open for
the supply ships to enter. The build
ing up of the reserve supply stocks
has been discontinued, officers in
charge of the expeditionary force hav-
ing expressed the opinion that every
possible emergency has been provided
for.
The cargo carried by the Ascutney
was valued at S1,025,03S. A glance at
the IMMENSE quantity and the wide va
riety of foodstuffs on the list will
make it clear that the American boys
are not going to lack proper nourish-
ment this winter. Some of the items
in the Red Cross cargo follow:
Sugar, $4,000 pounds.
Chocolate, $4,000 pounds.
Cocoa, $4,000 pounds.

bate on U. S. Policy To-

ton that the proposed conference at

tion was opened by Sen. johnson. of

for immediate action on a resolution
which would put the senate on rec

American Russian expedition as
soon as practicable. After vehemert

Quired by parliamentary rules.

ment of Premier Lloyd George in

In asking immediate Considera-
ton of his resolution. Sen. Johnson
made another impassioned attack on

/ in Russia. denOuncing it as "un-
/ usual vicious and criminal" Dis
/ claiming sympathy with the bolshe-

1 their atrocities. Sen. Johnson re-
! scented a suggestion from Sen. Hitch
cock that he had acted as "A cham =
