zone of the wonders Of modern
merchandising in America" is the
title conferred this month by the
Women's Near Magazine Of New
York City one of the big trade mag
azines of the country. on Lynden
store that twenty-five years ago TO-DAY
was so, small that one had to strain
his eyes to see it. The Lynden De-
partment Store. which this week is
celebrating its twenty-secOnd birth
day. is the store referred to.
The big eastern magazine COM
pares the local Institution with that
of Carver Brothers at Strasburg. O.
hio. ranked as the biggest small town
store in America, and puts the Lyn-
den Depart len. store in second pos
ition.
Says the magazine:
1.-THE Carver Brothers store, which
is probably the biggest small town
store in America, is located in q
town almost exactly the same size
as Lynden. 1t did a 100000 bus
mess in 1918. But the Carver store
is in a thickly populated region. with
interurban lines, hard roads. etc. 1t
is also a much older store than the
one at Lynden, having been started,
in 1866, or SO years ago. The Ly91
den Department Store therefore deF
serves to rank as one of the wonders
of modern merchandising in Ameri-
ca
Last year, the business Of the De-
partment Store totalled $511,83S.82.
as against $4,000 the first year OF
its existence back in '97 when w. II.
NAPLES and Andrew r. Smith opened
for business. Already, for the First
nine months of this year, the sales
totalled $453,84S.80, a gaiE over the
first nine sao.' ms of last year of more
than ty-six per cent.
Members Of the firm now include
besides Mr. NAPLES, John L. BOcr-
have, P. J. Van Hemert George W.
Frick, Lynn J. Brown and George W.
Hall. Twenty average stores would
occupy the space used by the De art
ment Store today, tremendous ad-
vance from the tiny FAX 80 room,
of 1897. And half of this little space
was rented by a druggist and anoth-
shop!

 Society must meet this thrust against itself as the alarmed and of the sem barbarian of Berlin with force without stint and with rigor without vestige of softness. Beyond the shadow of doubt this outrage was planned and perpetu- ated to effect the release of what these domoniacs term political pris- oners-the men and women sent to internment camps and to prison be- cause they were either actual tools of German beastliness or were actively dsloyal to the American government in time of war
 In Canton, Ohio, recently, led by Debs and Wagenknecht, convicted of treason, the Socialists called up on the proletariats to rise and de- mand amnesty for these prisoners.

The usual weekly meeting of the local Red Cross branch met yester- day afternoon at the former quar- ters of the Nenana club and-4con- tinued the good work of making garments for the needy Belgians.
 Those present at the meeting were Mesdames R. J. Diven, J. T. Oldfield, w. H. Gilcher, s. Ivey, Walter Gould, LaMotte, A. Fowler, H. Anderson, Carl Schmidt, J. Dwyer. M. Sweeney. F. D. Browne. and Miss McRae.
 The meetings are now held twice week instead of only once a week as heretofore, owing to the urgent need for the garments on which the Red Cross ladies are now work ing. The exact date of these meet ings will be announced by Mrs. F. D. Brown, chairman of the local Red Cross Branch.

FATE OF RUSSIA

Russia that. is soviet, Russia, will revert to absolute barbarism within three years if assistance is not offered from the outside" says a British officer who recently es- capped from Russia. To the cor respondent of the Associated Press he added;
 "Men and women of the better classes who have lived through. the first, war of Bolshevism are don. hing peasant garb in self defense and dropping in to the. dull, mon otonous village life. There's noth, ing else for them to do. Russia will soon be as primitive as the Congo if allowed to drift along under Bolsheviki control. It is hope. less to expect leadership in Russia which will save the country from reversion to mediaeyalism. The Bolshevik leaders are not strong Opposition leaders are so weak that .Lenine and his associates seen strong by comparison. They ar. merely better organized than an, other group" .e..>>.

HUN 7ELEGRAPHER

PHILADELPHIA.-An interest ing story of enemy spy work is told by Frank II. Gaskill, assistant chief of the Protective League, which rendered service during the war.
 The organization, MT. Gaskill re- lates, was responsible for the in- ternment of man caught spe ipg out dangerous messages with a p- hammer he was operating in a big industrial plant on the DeleA re river. The messages were first de- tected by telegraph operator in Palmyra, N J. He caught the ham mer spelling out:
 Troop ship moving tomorrow morning."
 The telegrapher notified the gov ernment authorities, who caught the trip-hammer operator signalling:
 "Raid on fishing fleet complete surprise"
 This was several hours before the news despatchers brought word of the sinking of fishing fleet by German submarines off New Eng land. The trip-hammer expert was found to be former telegraph operator. Mir. Gaskill said the mys- tery of where the operator got his news or to whom he was signalling was never solved.

THE RUSSIAN SITUATION

There is a wide divergence of opinion among English politicians and newspapers as to the attitude which the Entente powers should assume toward soviet Russia.
 On the one hand, says an Asso- ciated Press correspondent, writing from London, is the view expressed by Sir George Buchanan, British ambassador to Russia, who in a re cent public speech urged that re- Inducements be recruited on vol untary basis and be immediately sent to check the Bolsheviki Sir George contended that the Allies must not desert Russia now and that they would be untrue to the cause of democracy if they did not put an end to the reign of Bol- shevism.
 Eht lhS opPoSite Poic !o lNdilStty Mcdonald and such newspapers as the Manchester Guardian and Lon don Daily News, which call for the immediate withdrawal of all En- tente forces and demand that Great Britain cease participation in mili- tary operations which they de- nounce as interference with Russian internal politics.
 The majority of the press is gen erally noncommittal ; and contents itself with printing Russian news and refraining from an expression of opinion pending ., consideration of Russan policy by the peace con ference.
 There appears to be wide spread nnwillingness among En- glishmen to support any policy that may involve continuation of mili- tary action on a large scale unless it be clearly established that such action is necessary to safeguard the Entente victory. Nevertheless there seems to be growing dis position in the press to regard the restoration of peace and order in Russia as a task which ris. necessary to insure the stability of Central Europe. -, -N
 This is especially true since the manifestations of Bolshevism in Germany, and the attacks of the Bolsheviki upon Esthonia and other Russian territory evacuated by the Germans.
 The Russian muddle is regarded here as one of the all-important subjects to be discussed at the peace conference and the average Englishman seems content to let the Allied representatives dispose of il without his advice

a part Of the United States and the
United States must suffer the conse-
quences of the terrible stain while try,
ing to purge itself of the elements which
made the night of horrors possible. The
reconstruction of the United States after
the war is in some respects more difficult
than that Of the countries which felt the
blasting effects of war longest and near
est at hand Yet the elements represent.
ing law and order and justice and right
must work the harder to bring about
that reconstruction. We must overcome
the effects Of the war and get back onto
footing somewhat similar to that
which obtained before the outbreak Of
the war.
