BEYOND CHlNA'S GREAT WALL
Mongolia, Desoate and Terrible Land,
Has a Fascination for Traveller
From the West

There is a magic about the Great
Wall of China and the frontier towns
In Its folds facing out upon MongO-
lla, that land of sandstorms and bliz-
yards, desolate and terrible to the
Chinese. and filed with their most
inveterate enemies of old times, writes
Elizabeth Coatsworth in Asia Maya
zine. Now the Mongolians have re-
treated further into the interior-al-
ways three days journey from civili-
zation--and Kalgan no longer braces
itself against the waiting hordes be-
yond Its walls.
We passed through the streets be-
tween low square buildings with pa
per windows often painted with gods
and goddesses. Now and then we
were amused to see how pirate to-
bacco advertisement showing a cut
throat with long black mustaches, had
usurped the god shelf of some shop
and had incense burned before its
unholy nose Everywhere We're gray
dust and bleakness, but at each door
was cage with a lark In 1t, and at
one dilapldated inn at least a hundred
young birds were gathered about an
old one to learn to sing.
Around us, above the roofs, were
the high, copper-colored mountains
without tree upon them, but with
the great wall looping and coillng
across the highest points and lonely
watch towers outlined on every peak
against a brilliant blue sky. The eff
feet of the color combined with the
long bare lines of the mountains was
gorgeous beyond words.
We passed beyond the Traitors
gate and into-old Mongolia The
way opened out Immediately into the
pass. and near us a crowd had gath
cred about the body of a brigand eX-
ecuted the morning before. There
was remnant of stream, sharp
hills on either side, and caravans or
camels loaded with sheepskins were
coming in from the desert. The beasts
had been losing their hair in patches
and many of them were wrapped in
sacling to prevent their catching cold,
adding to the somewhat ludlcrous eff
feet natural to camel despite its
stateliness. The Mongolians who led
them on their quick scraggy ponies
seemed little different in their appear
ance from the northern Chinese eX-
cept for their heavy padded red coats
and high, yellow peaked hats.
And beyond lay the Great Wall like
a living thing with the shining light
on its side, seeking the most insur-
mountable heights, again and again
disappearing from sight only to re-
appear farther and farther off along
the horizon. There lay its all but SEN
tlent length with only here and
there break in the shell Of smooth
cut slabs Of stone, each of which
weighed at least half a ton. Rome,
too, once built a wall. But only ar
cheologists can find traces OF that
younger imperial frontier today.

dition, is entombed in the corner
stone Of the Universalist church at
Montgomery, 0. William SWAIN sew
enty-two, village historian and former
schoolmaster of Montgomery, is au-
thority for the tradition that quart
of liquor is concealed within the cor
nerstone of the church, which was
built In 1887. "In those days liquor
was a respectable water" says SWAIN
Preachers drank 1t just as other folk
did. 1t was customary to place liquor
in a cornerstone for the same reason
that folks drank each others health
in liauor." Across the road from the
church is a tavern that was stop

WASHINGTON March Srd. Bu-
reau of New YoIrS Staats Zeitung, 7l6
Riggs Building, Washington.
The defenders and followers of the
administration have rendered a poor
service to the president when they
resolved curtailment Of freedom Of
speech In order to put out Of the way
quietly without notice the bill Of
the president objected to, a resolution
of Senator Gore, warning Americans
not TO use armed vessels The victory
which the administration obtained in
the senate was a Pyrr's victory, be-
cause that which was voted down
with 60 to IA votes was not the orig
inaI resolution of Mr.. Cores, but a
doing of a vessel and the loss of an
American on such vessel sufficient
cause for war with Germany. BY
so voting down this resolution merely
changed in character. expression
against war with Germany, without
desiring to voice such expression was
given. In short, the vote was farce
and viii have to be repeated under
more favorable accompanying condr
tiOns IL the true desire Of President
Wilson is to be granted. In this case
il is to be expected. that the entire
question of disupte as to whether of
ficial warning is not necessary any
more will be ventilated extensively.
There hardly exists any doubt, even
among the adherents OF the president,
that a dangerous minority, II not even
a majority of the senate will be in
favor of such warning in ease no con-

scented resolution Of warning and who
Just as the originator of the resolu-
tion, Senator Gore, voted against the

Real Automatic PhOnoaraph.

The much abused term automatic
can he applied with full justice to a
new and highly ingenious phonograph.
This versatile instrument plays as
many as 40. records, one after another
in order, selects any record indicated,
allows intervals between selections of
ten seconds to half an hour, repeats If
desired, and stops at any predeter-
mined point, according to Popular Me-
chanics. When the machine is started,
an arm rolls the first record out of the
rack and in front of the turntable,
where a plunger centers 1t.

A Dollar For ''Lenin"

In spite of the capitalist press campaign of
lies, the world is gradually learning that instead
of being the butcher he has been depicted, he is
not only the greatest leader of the world revolu-
tionary movement, but the foremost statesman of
the world
In fact, workers are learning that the capital
ist-militarists of the world have carried on a
murderous campaign of butcbery, that they still
are doing so and are preparing to continue to do
so as long as they have the power White Guard
governments have gone out of their way to carry

on their butcher programs against Russia and
other working-class governments In truth, wher-
ever the workers seek to establish humanitarian
conditions of living, they are being butchered
without quarter by the very powers which have
been oudest in their hue and cry against Russia.
The White Guards insane activities against the
spread of the truth about Lenin and the Bolshe-
viks has been the cause Of their own undoing. In
order to prevent the spread of the truth they have
resorted to the methods which they accuse Lenin
of practicing They have used force arrest, per-
secution, jails knock-downs, beatings and all man
ner and degrees of brutality to prevent the work.
ers from learning the facts about Bolshevism.
To no avail The facts are coming to the front
in spite of ALL The same is true of "Nicoai Lenin,
"His Life and Work., by Zinovieff, which The
Toiler has published and is now shipping out to
eager purchasers in bundles large and small. This
work by the friend and co-worker of Lenins is
one of the best refutations of the capitalist lies
about Lenin that has been printed And the
number of copies we are daily mailing out is
splendid proof that "force and violence" by Pal
mer's White Guards is poor munition against truth
and workingclass determination
1t is splendid proof that beating up worker
does not delay for moment the work of education
we are carrying on. By no means. Quite the con-
trary The workers are coming to the front with
their orders for more copies of "Lenin". We have
already shipped out several thousand copies, and
the orders are still coming. Our readers can
materially aid the circulation Of this pamphlet by
sending us dollar for four copies, one for them
selves and three to sell to others. If you want the
truth to reach the workers; if you resent the
brutal methods of capitalism and it's agents in
keeping YOU and OTHERS from learning the
truth, you will do this. You will get on the job at
once and put your dollar to work for WORKING

TALLEsT AND DEEPEST.

Most every native in Arkansas is prond of his state and is always will ing to say a good word for her, but it remained for Horatio lad, Thomas A. Arms to touch few spots here tofore unheralded in recounting the advantages of the state. He says in a communication to the American Legion Weekly:
 "After reading about the climates of California and Kansas, as de- scribed by the buddies in your last issue, l should like to call your at tention to Arkansas. Although we are laughed at and scorned by most everyone we meet, we know good thing when we see it.
 "In Arkansas we have every kind of grain that grows in the United States. We have almost all kinds of fruits and berries and vegetables in addition to cotton. We have diamond, zinc, lead and copper mines.
 "We have mines so deep that at the bottom you can tickle the heads of the fiends of hell. We have tim Der so tall that traffic cops are need ed in the tree tops to prevent the clouds from being wrecked in collis- ions rounding the corners"

FIRE PREVENTION DAY.

Today is Fire Prevention Day throughout the United States, the day being proclaimed by President Will son as one which should be devoted to recalling of the damage to life and property that has resulted in the past from fires.
 Every year fifteen thousand hu- man beings lose their lives and the country suffers damage to the eN- tent of two hundred and fifty mil lions of dollars through blazes which in the majority of cases result from carelessness. Magnitude of this yearly loss should certainly stimu- late everyone to study means to prevent such disastrous drain on hu. man lives and property.
 Statistics show that S5 per cent of fires are preventable. SCarelessness is the direct cauoe of many conflag- rations and carelessness can be done away with in the extent to which caution is preached. Some one casts a cigaret in batch of waste; light ed match is thrown down into a pile of papers; the oil can is used to start fire; industrial concerns per init accumulations that result m sontaneous conclusions; the lace cur tains blow against the gas stove results are always the same.
 Even in the historical case when the cow kicked over the lantern in starting the much recounted Chicago fire there were clements of careless ness-the milking should have been done earlier in the evening.
 That the people of Jefferson c~ {; ty will be reminded of the causes and effects of fire-the direct rcflec- l tions are our insurance rates-is de- pendent in the county, on every res ident, in the schoole. on our teachers and in the city, on our officials. Why not have the fire department out in public parade; teachers should lee lure pupils, and if you see anyone
