RUSSIA: THE HEIRESS OF
FA.MINES

Never, In civilized times, have 50
many oldwOrld nations felt the pinch
Of hunger ut once; yet suffering from
want OF food Is no :.ew story 10 many
Of them. Especially has Russia been
the luckless heir to periods OF near
starvation.
Writing to the National Geographic
society, Ralph A. Graves tells Of Rus
sian famInes Of the past US follows:
Next to the pro!etariat of India
and China. the Russian peasant has
felt the pinch of poverty and hunger
more keenly and more frequently than
any other citizen on earth.
''One Of the earliest fumlnes In Rus
sin OF which there Is amy definite rec
ord was that of 1000, which continued
for three years, with death toll OF
100000 peasants. Cats. dogs and rats
were eaten; the strong overcame the
weak. and I'm the sliambles Of the pub
lie markets human flesh was sold. Null
titudes of the dead were found with
their mouths stuffed with straw.
Three Russian famines of compara-
lively recent date were among the
mos, severe in the history of the coun-
try. They occurred In 1891. 1906 and
1911. During the ten years following
the first Of these periods OF dearth
the government allotted nearly $l25,-
100000 for relief work. but the sums
were not always judIciously expended.
'In 1906 the government gave 40
pounds of flour month to all persons
under eighteen and over fifty-niDe
years Of age. All peasants between
those ages and infants under one year
of age received no allowance. and II
became necessary for the younger and
older members Of the family to share
their bare pittance with those fer
whom no provision was made. The
suffering was intense and the moral.
ity exceedingly heavy. but the avail
able statistics are not wholly reliable.
''The famine Of 1911 extended over
one.third Of the area Of the empire In
Europe and affected more or less d.
rectly sO.O00.OOO people. while s.OOO.-
900 were reduced TO starvation. Weeds,
the bark Of trees, and bitter bread
made from acorns constituted the
chief diet for the destitute. This was
unqucstionably the most widespread
and most severe famine that has be-
fallen n European nation In modern
times.

EVIDENTLY HER LUCKY DAY
Girl at First Thought Pickpocket Was
Busy, but It Turned Out Just
the Other Way.

The business girl, straphanging In
the subway at the rush hour, felt a
gentle tug on the pocket Of her rain
coat. Far from being disturbed, she
grinned sardonically, knowing that
just exactly one dime rested in the
shabby little purse resting in that par
ticular pocket. She was so hemmed
in by fellow travellers that it was
difficult to discover IL her suspicious
were facts until she emerged with the
struggling mass at her station. Then
she dipped her hand lightly into the
pocket only to find the ancient purse
intact and In It's accustomed spot.
But that wasn't the only thing in
the pocket. Extracting hard sub
stance gingerly. she stared in daZe
at a roll Of bills protected by an elias
tic band. Exhilarated and excited
over this reverse state of affairs, she
counted her ill-gotten gains and be-
hold, she was the richer by 30 per-
fectly good dollars, Whether fellow
passenger had dropped them by mis-
take into her pocket instead Of his
own or thief placed them there for
fear of detection affords wide field
Of speculation. -. Anyhow the business
girl has turned the money into her
college campaign fund and hopes 1t
will not be refused as tainted money.

"MID. CHANNEL" AT THE
81 REX LAST TIMES TODAY

We have been longing for photo
play of actual, intimate human struS-
gle, and at length it has come-and
in a form that exceeds our fondest
expectations. The photodrama Is Sir
Arthur Wing Pinero's greatest drama
of domestic life aptly called Mid
ChanneP'-one of the most brilliant
stage successes Of Ethel Barrymore,
and unquestionably the greatest tri-
umph Of Clara Kimball Young since
her first screen appearance.
'fMid Channel" a throbbing photo
drama of the temptations and follies
of married life, is 50 truthful to fact
that no mature person will leave this
powerful picture without carrying
away clinging memories OF LIES
lesson. 1t fairly burns with intensity
and soul-stirring experience such as
every mortal knows tit does not
dodge the truth-it unfolds human
weakness 80 dramatically as to strike
a sympathetic chord in every heart.
No better title could describe the
message of this photOplay than mid
Chameleon the most crucial Pc
Rod of married life is compared to
the treaCherOuS waters or the English
Channel, in the center of which is the
famous Ridge--a shOal that turks
Cminousty to engulf the ilnDcent
traveller. Once this stormy center or
domestic life Is passed, all is smooth
sailing, but not before. There Is no
escape-every married couple, at a
certain stage must pass through this
critical point some survive and
many founder.
Due praise for this photodramatic
masterpiece wiuld not be complete
without mention of the superb scenic
effects and multi-colored surrounding
that Is as luxurious as IL has been
costly. and which heightens the mag
nificence of the entire picture. 1t can
he safely predicted that the spectator
will rarely witness as effective pho
toplay as Mid-Channel" for many a
day..

STORY OF DAYS OF THE DONS
SHOWN AT GRAND THEATER

Carmel Myers has thrill for every
Temperament at the Grand theater
tonight only where she plays her
local engagement in 1.-THE Kiss, her
most recent Universal photodrama
from the fascinating romance of old
California by Johnston McCully.
The story was originally printed in
novel form as fkLlitsle Erolinda."
Credit for the screen version is given
to George Piper and the scenario
was given into the hands of Jack
Conway to direct. =~ls ,+>:
The director has taken pains to
establish the romantic atmosphere Of
old California and. the first few Sc
quences are devoted to that end. One
sees the dangerous hacienda where
dWells the daughter of the admin
istrator Of the rancho; then a bril-
liant fiesta to celebrate the return
Of the old mans son from his con-
quest afield and then the thrilling
drama which develops when the
gallant young caballero falls to love
below his station and the girl leaps
to meet it-abOve hers.
For those who love beautiful wom-
en-, they are to be seen in "The Kiss"
in profusion; but none of them is
quite as bewitchingly lovely as Miss
Myers, although Jean Acker, playing
the second feminine lead. comes peri
lousy near.
