And the philosophy of these men on which they

The bolshevik leadership has certainly let
loose the fury of mems passions on helpless,
or seemingly helpless, nation. Major Schuyler
says that bolsheyism ought to be met by mus

to a christian world. Kouprin says that bolshe-

LOCAL ARTISTS SHOW
DELIGHTFUL EXHIBIT
OF THEIR PRODUCTS
BY JUNE ROBINSON

A delightful exhibit representing
various kinds of art is being held by
several Richmond artists at Sharkey's
Millinery shop. The exhibit includes
Oil and pastel pictures, monotypes,
linens embroidered and with Italian
hemstitching, painted china and jap
anese ware.
Miss Bessie Whitridge is showing
original designs in flat enamel on
China and Japanese sedji and satsuma
ware. Her part of the exhibit includes
tea sets, cups and saucers, artistic
bowls, jars, and plates. Most of the
designs are conventionalized flowers.
Miss Elizabeth Jay has applied Miss
Whitridges designs to linens to go
with the cermanics. These pieces are
very lovely and the colors match per
fectly those used in the China and
Japanese ware. Several very beauti-
full handkerchiefs and luncheon sets
in Italian hemstitching are among
Miss Jays work.
Miss Elmira Kempton is exhibiting
some unusual pieces called plastiles
which are decorative designs in color
which make effective wall decorations.
Artistic novelties are the bizarre plas-
Titles which are to be worn around the
neck Several landscapes in oil are
also the work of Miss Kempton.
Francis Brown has two oil paintings
and several monotypes in the exhibit
and George Baker is showing some
very colorful pastel sketches several
of which have been sold already.
Among the pictures which Mrs.
Maude Kaufman Eggemeyer has on
exhibit is beautiful one of brook
full of reflections. A flower garden
rich in color and rhythmic lines and
some lovely willows are included in
this exhibit.
Pastels and paintings by William
Snodgrass, co-worker with George
Baker, are another attractive feature
of the display.
The exhibit which opened Thursday
is dwfndling rapidly. About half OF
the pieces were sold the first day.

OLD CHIMNEY SWEEP
REPLACES MACHINES
IN CLEANING WORK

CLEVELAND, O., Dec. 1.-THE old
fashioned chimney sweep. the fellow
with the soot-covered hands and face,
is back in Cleveland. For while 1t
appeared as though modern machin-
cry had taken his place, but machin-
cry has to step back, according to
the mana ger of local chimney clean
ing company.
"There's only one way to clean a
chimney, and that's to sweep it," said
the manager. I'VE do that by attach
ing brush to rope and a weight to
the brush. We rub the brush up and
down the chimney until it's as pure as
the lily.
1--WE tried a machine. 1t worked
something on the principle OF a
vacuum cleaner. However. we soon
found that the distance from the ma
chine ON the street to the chimney tip
on the roof made it impossible to gen
crate enough suction to make the con-
trivance effective"

RICHMOND TO BENEFIT
BY RAT|ONINC OF GAS

Richmond will benefit by the new
rationing system of the gas supply and
cities and towns in Indiana will have
more fuel this winter than they had
been led to anticipate, it was learned
Saturday.
This natural gas comes from the
West Virginia field and supplies many
communities in Ohio and Indiana A
rationing system has been arranged
by the Logan company whereby, as
nearly as possible, the gas is distribut-
ed to towns and cities in proportion to
the number OF consumers.
For several winters Dayton, O., be-
ing on the Logan lines before points
west. in Ohio and Indiana, were align
ed, obtained most of the gas Now
Dayton is to receive only onehalf of
the fuel in the mains at Dayton, the
other half to go to Indiana and Ohio
towns, including Richmond, Muncie,
Newcastle and Hartford City.
To conserve and equalize the supply
rates have been so advanced in the
territory east of Dayton that the 54
towns and cities supplied in that dis
trict can not afford, above a certain
point, to use natural gas for heating
purposes. Each family will be limit
ed to 5000 cubic feet a month, suffic-
lent for cooking and bath-heating pur-
poses. After that amount is consumed
the rate becomes so high as to be pro-
hibitive.
No promise is made that Indiana
consumers will have all the natural
gas they need this winter, but, except
in extremely cold weather, it is expect
ed they will have enough to meet or
binary needs

JAPANESE PREMIER
DENIES THAT JAPAN
IS WARu|kE NATION

TOXIC, Dec. 11.-Denying that ia
pan is militaristic and inviting for
eign critics to prove the contention,
Premier Takashi Hara has written an
article entitled Japanese National
Characteristics as Misunderstood by
the World" which is published in the
Chuive, an organ of the Seiyukia party.
ut is charged that the japanese is
an aggressive race, bellicose. and lack
ing in civilization other than the art
of war" the premier wrote. This
misunderstanding may be attributed
to three defective points of view.
First, japanese history is disregard
ed; second, Japanese literature and
art are set aside; and third, the true
conditions of the life of the people
have not been studied by the critics.
Japan has no record in her history
Of having conquered other races. as
every one knows. The foreign wars
in the Meiji era. especially the Rus
sian war, were simply wars for self
defense against other aggression.
Japs Not WarIike
| eff Japans history is examined
closely, it is rich in records of well
fare. to be sure, but it is a great mis-
| take to jump at the conclusion tina
the japanese people have been a war
like race altogether, born and reared
| in the midst of wars. The wars OF
Japanese historical records have been
| political wars. In the days before civ
| ilization had advanced. political and
military wars were employed for the
same purpose by all countries which
are now civilized.
Japan has never violated inter
national laws or international faith.
| She has been rather too tinaid to do
! so, or too inexperienced for it. In
other words, she has not yet been de-
/ graded to that extent. If there is any
fault to be found with the Japanese,
it may be, as critics at home tell US,
that Japan is too modest and reserved.
In respecting international obligations
and in being loyal to friendly nations,
there perhaps is no country which will
| surpass Japan, though many nations

conduct between nations as between
