thanks for the highly important serv-
ices rendered by them. Through these

house and dOrmitory were established,
your valuable activities were at all
times in evidence up to the assaulting
battalions and back from those ad-
vanced elements with the wounded
through the various medical stations
to the field hospitals.
Mine secretaries were with the in
fantry battalion, and two secretaries
(F. A. Dawes and B. f. FOrd) actually
went over the top with the assaulting
battalions and carried on their work

fore the lord of the other world, he
was told that in his lifetime he had
never represented the lord of the world
properly, and that he must return to
earth and make a correct likeness.

its red face and malevolent glare that

BY Frank J. Taylor

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
New York, July Liberation of an
enormous Red Army, estimated by
various authorities anywhere from
two to four million men, under diff
ficulties which have scarcely been
equalled in history is a feat which
the bolsheviks have accomplished
The Russian Red Army is a huge
effective force closely bound to the
political organization of the bolshe-
yiks
Trotsky, more than any other Rus
sian, is the genius behind the Red
Army. He has mobolized every man
of military age at the present time,
and spends his almost boundless en-
ergy going from front to front re-
organizing and enthusing local Lead
ers. Trotskey is Russia's man of
iron.'
The bolsheviks have over-mobil-
lied, in the opinion Of many who are
informed as to the actual situation.
This is probably a means of pre-
venting unemployment and discon-
tent. though ultimately it makes
Russians economic situation more
difficult.
The bolsheviks feel confident that
no outside army can take Moscow
For Petrograd they fear Its fall
would be tremendous moral blow
to bolshevism, it is recognized by
bolshevik leaders, but they hold that
the economic problem confronting
them would be materially improved,
since they would be relieved of the
responsibility for feeding Petrograd.
The problem confronting Field
Marshal Trotsky is not manpower,
but finding cannon and locomotives
Most of the soldiers have rifles,
which they proudly display as Ameri-
can makes, but artillery to support
the infantry is lacking. At present
the bolshevilSs max up for the
shortage by dragging guns from one
front to another to meet attacks
This dismays the food department,
which is losing its transportation to
the bolshevik war department.
First hand acquaintance with the
bolshevik army soon conyinces one
that the Reds are not all the long
haired, dirty barbarians as they are
described in reports. The Reds. so
far as the soldiers concern, impress
sed the United Press correspondent
as being good-hearted, simple Rus
slams who believe they are prevent
ing their country from beinA invaded
by foreigners.
The soldiers were always ready to
fraternize and were never abusive.
A cigarette insured the friendship

suffers from lack of cigarettes He
saves bits of newspapers or any
other kind of papers, and rolls up

A GOOD RULE.

For the man working on
salary or wages, by far the
best way to save is to de-
termine the amount he feels
he can lay aside out Of his
pay and then make it an
absolute rule to take this
amount and deposit it at
once in his bank account.
The plan for saving is sim
pie. Spend less than you
earn. Begin now by depos-
iting part of your earn
ings in a savings account;
you will be surprised at the
result. A man may earn
great deal of money aud
still not be well off. It is
not how much he earns, but
how mucv hhe saves that
counts.
Saving is hard for most
people at first; it is hard to
find a surplus to save when
wages are small and wants
are many.
Unless you get your mon
ey into a bank at once, it IS
spent. You miss it but you
hardly know where it went,
Money at interest works for
you every hour, day and
night, Sundays and holi-
days.
The more you add to 1t
the more it will earn for
you.
