we have after two years when we quit Roxbury and came here? We had $40, didn't wei We've been here four months, and how much have we gotf We've got $48O of new money, that's what we've got. And it's clean money, Billy, honestly earned. I'd rather have that than a million that was grafted. We're not getting along so badly. Maybe somebody else is getting a whole lot more that doesn't deserve it half as much. But I guess these things will be strengthened out If fellows like you don't go looney and spoil everything. Anyhow, you never had so much money ahead in your life, Billy Noxon, and know it.
 Now, who's the head devil over there at the yard in getting up all this I. w. W. sentiment? Is it black-muz- zled fellow they call Saunderson?"
 "Well, Saunderson's the smartest, most independent man in the yard, if that's what you mean, and not afraid to speak his mind. The fellows listen to him because he's there with the goods"
 'sI thought so. I sat behind him and some other anarchists in street car yesterday, when he ought to have been at work, and I know what he thinks. I heard him tell the man with him that 1t was about time the 'boorzbwa' was kept from monopolizing every thing, including the most beautiful and desirable wives'-that's exactly what he said. Billy Noxon!'
 "Well." responded Billy, rather doubtfully, ''he meant that a working man can't compete with a rich one for a girl, when he can't send her flowers and give her buzz-car rides and such things"
 Billy, you're simp. He meant because he said so-that the women ought to be natiOnaliZed. Understand that? Made the property of the men equally, like the food and the clothes and the houses and automobiles! He said 1t was too early to spring that idea yet, but 1t would surely come."
 Billy tried to say something, but the little wife kept on. Billy, didn't tell you before, but twice that black devil has tried to pick me up on the street. Yesterday when he got up to leave the car he grinned at me and winked, and he said out of the corner of his mouth as he passed: Pretty peach ' Billy Noxon, do you want me nationalized- for Saunderson? Are you for the bol- sheviks or for me?"
 Billy Noxon found Saunderson in the yard next day, and hammered him for five minutes. He told him that he'd lick him every time he saw him. Wherefore, Saunderson is now agitat- ing elsewhere, and there hasn't been any strike in the yard. Maybe every thing is not exactly as it should be as between labor and capital, but as between Billy and Elsie, bolshevism hasn't a lOok-in.

ENvER PASHA WILL BE EXECUTED

Enver Pasha, whose portrait is given herewith, Talaat Pasha and Djemal Pasha have been sentenced to death by Turkish court-martial which investigated the conduct of the Turk ish government during the war. Enver and Talaat were among the leaders of the Young Turks who forced Sultan Abdul Hamid from the throne and gov erned the empire through his ignorant and superstitious brother Mohammed. Enver fancied himself an oriental counterpart of Napoleon, and, pos sessed of ability and unscrupulousness, rose. at the age of thirty-eight, to be minister of war, with the sultan's daughter the chief figure in his harem. Talaat, once a telegraph operator, be- came minister of the interior with power even greater than that of Enver. It was he who thought out the policy of the complete extermination of the Armenian race, and it was his order that caused the death of 100000 Ar menians. Djemal, an Egyptian prince, as was the sultan.

 s1 take the liberty of calling your attention to a matter which I am sure is at the heart of the whole country, and which I have had very much in mind throughout all these months when we were trying to arrange a peace that would be worthy of the spirit and achievement of the men who won the victory in the field and on the sea.
 "After mature reflection, earnest ly recommend that you give the perma- nent rank of general to John J. Per shing and Peyton c. March, express ing the law in such a way as to give pr you give the permanent rank of admir-, Sims.

LEGUIA AND REVOLUTION IN PERU

Concerning the new revolution in Peru, Senator Sherman of Illinois had this, among other things, to say In the senate:
 "Mr. President, I read among the signatory nations to the peace cove nant, the 32 original elect, the name of Peru. At three o'clock-inoppor> tune time, fndeed-on the morning or the Fourth of July, 1919, two regiments of soldiers rushed in on the palace of the president at Lima, seized by force Senor Don Jose Pardo, president Of Peru, and immediately conveyed him to the penitentiary. I shall observe with mild curiosity what our president thinks of it.
 "Two soldiers and three civilians were killed. While the slaughter was far from satisfactory for a coup detat in such republic, the principle of self determination of a free people is felt to be sufficiently vindicated-

Through carelessness with
Flames.
DOCTRINE IN SCHOOLS
Observance Of Day is Carried Out by
Teachers and Prncipals-CIean
Up Rubbish Piles Ad-
vocated.

Two little girls and two lighted
candles furnished a whole volume of

| They were sitting on the sidewalk
with two little Christmas tree candles
stuck in some parrafine on the con-
crete slab between them. The candles
were burning, and they were warm

Fortunately enough the candles
burned down without the frilly dresses
of either of the children attracting
the flame, but the moral of the story
was there just the same. 1t is just
such reasons as that that Iowa is to-
day observing fire prevention day,
and teaching Iowa people to be care
full of this demon of flames.
In the schools today fire prevention
measures were being emphasized. Not
just for one day is the lesson being
given, but for all time. The children
are being taught to be careful. lest
they add to the catastrophes which
already have occurred in the state,
and which have brought suffering and
grief to cities in other states.
Cleaning up of rubbish and accumu-
lation of trash piles is urged as a
measure of fire prevention. Being
careful with unguarded light flames,
with gasoline and coal oil, and a gen.
eral observance of the doctrine of
safety first are the surest ways to
keep from having fire loss, public
safety officials through the state de-
