which they have been the wards. They
are going back to Petrograd after suf-
fering and wanderings that for some
of them have blotted out every re.
collection of their parents. the places
of their birth or even of their own

When the revolution broke out In
Russia, many parents in Petrograd de-
cided to send the youngsters into peace
full Siberia until the trouble was
over" They were sent east In charge
Of nurses and teachers.
Later, a barrier of fire marking the
battle lines Of the opposing Russian
and Czech armies had been stretcf ed
between the youngsters and their
homes. Months passed. Winter arriv-
eus luHuS were eANduSteu anu munger
and war horrors menaced the wander

to for help, passed 1t on the Red Cross.
Group after group were taken over
by the Red Cross. which established
colonies in western Siberia and had ap.
parently solved the problem of caring
for its charges when the battleline
swayed eastward and the bolsheviki
captured town after town. Groups or
the children barely escaped capture.
Finally it was decided to take them to
Vladivostok.
The children were settled at Russian
islands in Vladivostok harbor in bar
racks with German and Austrian pris-
oners pressed into service to do heavy
work. Schools and hospitals were es-

GOING SOME
In Truck Transportation.

A new worlds record for 10 days,
5 hours, for the $500 mile trans
continental trip from Los Angeles to
New York has been made by pneu-
matically equipped motor truck of
The Gooryear Tire & Rubber Co,
The previous record of II days
and 3 hours was established in 1913
by a light weight Maxwell truck.
When the three-ton Packard that
had hung up the new coast record
rolled into New York City, it had
travelled from the Atlantic to the
Pacific four times since 1918 and
rolled "a total of 10000 miles.
Driven by Howard Sholder and
Herbert Temple. the big freighter
travelled over 1000 miles over the
Santa Fe route to Kansas City in
days and IS hours despite S2 hrs
lost because of bad roads and de-
tours i'm New Mexico.
Just IL days after leaving Los
Angeles, the big truck roued into
the factories at Akron--a distance
ed each other every six hours, one
ed each othter every six hours, one
sleeping in comfortable cab be-
hind the drivers seat, while the
other maintained the schedule.
The truck made its first trans
continental run from Boston to San
Francisco in September, 191S-S,
700 miles, in 2l days. The same
truck travelled with an army trans
port train over the Lincoln High
way in 1919 and since then has
been giving demonstrations along
the Pacific coast.
Company officials believe that the
new record with its average daily
run of 25O miles, will stand for
some time. Goodyear News Ser
