LIFE,s LITTLE QUESTION MARKs


Why does a person going into restaurant
choose table against the wall?
he is cold?
Why does woman often lose her best
friend by sympathetically agreeing to what the
unhappy wife says about her husband?
Why do the men who edit the Woman S
Page in some of our dailie5 insist in writing
about curl papers,, and dining rooms-don't
they know that both are obsolete?
Why does a mans idea of sentiment con-
Sist in bringing home box of chocolates, after
his wife has thrice reminded him that it is the
event of their anniversary? E. T. S.
Who was the Twenty-fourth street woman
who lost five dollar bill out of her purse on
Tuesday OF last week when she going away
for a weeks stay and didn't discover the loss
until she had been away for three or four days
and had idea where she lost it, but who,
on the day following her return home this
week, found the missing currency laying in her
front yard near the sidewalk in plain view of
everybody passing by? GLIB.

New Mexico has written letter to the fore

The bolsheviki's own reports
showed that the population of
Petrograd had declined about

100000 inhabitants left out of
about 100000. Population of
Moscow had declined about 60
per cent. In one group Of Pc

workers had fallen from 277,O0O

workers unions had lost $4,000

RESULT OF BoLsHEvIsM.


While the rest of the world
complained that Trustworthy IN
formation about Russia was not
obtaiuable, because everything
coming out of that country was
distorted one way or the other,
socialists collected great deal
of authentic Russian information
for the guidance of their recent
international convention at Ber-
ne They went to the bolsheviti
themselves for the information,
and having digested it, they de
nolmced the bolsheyili rule

output per man has fallen The
Pctrograd SOVIET reported that
the state had advanced 100000
600 rubles to the famous Putt
loft works formerly one Of
Russia s leading industrial estab-
lishments-o which 100000
rubles had been expended in
wages, while total output Of the
works in the same period was
valued at only 100000 rubles.
From various reports it seemed
that the total factory output
equaled only about half the sum
drawn from the state treasury;
hence an official complaint that
the government has been obliged
to print paper money at the rate
of 200,000,000 rubles a day, and
that the value Of it's rubles in
the interior of the country had
fallen 95 per cent.
Last November the central eX-
ecutivc committee declared that
TIE food shortage in Moscow was
largely due to loafing and
plundering. In December a gov
eminent organ complained that
the mass Of new industrial Off
cials appeared only twice al
month-to draw their salaries.
AS to an enormous increase in
the number Of such officials, five
districts in one province now
show 495 officials where former
Iy in twelve districts there were
only 275.
This report was compiled by |
non-bolshcyik socialists who were |
possibly more or less prejudiced |
against bolShcyism by what they |
had learned before. But they give !
the bolshcvik source Of their in
formation in every case. and it .
hardly lies IN the mouths OF so
cialists to question the integrity
of Karl Kautsl1y and Branting,
or Of Simeon Strunsky, who
sends a summary Of the report
to the Evening Post, New York.
The bolshryik reports are all
several months old by this time,
but bolshcvism had been in oper-
alton long enough to give an
dea Of how it operated
No wonder Kautsky declarcd:
'The great argument for social
SIN is that it is more efficient
han the capitalist system, but
he bolsheviki are undermining
his argument. "

At this stage in the campaign
attending the special election on
the $50,00O,0O0 good roads bond
issue next month, probably the
best attitude for the average vo-
ter to adopt is that Of an open
mind. 1t is the largest propo-
sition ever presented to the peo-
Pile Of the state and it therefore
behooves every citizen to study
it with the greatest care, giving
due attention to the arguments
