There are two Petrcgrads. One is

new life. The first is the Petrograd of
business and society. The second is the
Petrograd of communism and of the
proletariat.
An arrival from the west, with the

ed by the present appearance Of the
lusiness section Of Petrograd. The gilt
ter OF the Nevsky Prospect is no more
and the hundreds Of thousands that
once promenaded on its broad sidewalks
have now dwindled to several thousand.
The windows and the doors Of the big
shops and department stores are board
led up. An izvostchik (hack) Is now a
very rare article in Petrograd. Only
the street cars still give to the Nevsky
"a semblance Of life.
The stiffness enyeloping the central
part of Petrograd makes one feel at
frst that there is such perfect order in
the city because there are scarcely
enough people in 1t to create disorder.
Something akin to this was my first
impression upon arriving in Petrograd
