MUSIC CLUBS MAKE
 OUTLINE Of WORK
Believe Good Books on Subject
 Are Imperative

Peoria, H.. Oct. 2s. - With the thought that good books on music are imperative and that a systematic course which will arouse public inter- est in reading the printed word on eusic is a fine means of stimulating interest iH the art generally, the Ma tfonal Federation of Music clubs. through it's librarian, Mrs. James H. Hirsch, has outlined a plan of work.
 According to the plan, state chair man of library extension will be ap- pointed and the clubs are asked to appoint library chairnen whose duty 1t shall be to establish music sec- tons" in their public libraries. A list of desirable books will be sent by the state library chairman to the club chairma nwho will compare the list with books at the library and report those missing. It will then be the duty of each state chairman to de- wise means whereby the missing books may be supplied. This will be done probably either by purchasing them, donating, or club subscriptions, pos gib1y all combined.
 Mrs. Hirsch considers it of great importance that the student of music have an opportunity to study the his- tory of music, and for the club women to have available in the town library

FEW DRUNKARDS NOW
 IN SOVIET RUSSIA
Restaurants and Cafes Have No AL coholic Drinks For
 SnIo

Moscow, Oct. 28.-In three weeks of travel through Soviet Russia. The Associated Press correspondent has seen but one intoxicated man. That was a workman in Moscow who was SO far under the influence of liquor that he was unable to tell a group of curious and thirsty men where he found the liquor.
 The new decree permitting 12 per cent alcohol in beverages has not pro- duced the results wine -bibbers and beer-lovers had hoped for. Wine eel lars have not produced hidden sup plies and apparently there are no vegetables, fruit nor grain available for conversion into drinks.
 Restaurants and cafes have no al- cohoIic drinks for sale. There is an abundance of kvas and various non- fermented drinks alleged to be made from fruit but probably largely chem icaI in their composition.
 If there are alcoholic stores ip Rus sia they have not yet reached the mar kets of central and northern Russia The enactment of the law permitting the sale of alcoholic beverages Of low grade was defended by the Soviet of ficials on the ground that it was necessary to save the Caucasian ant Crimean -wine-grawers from ruin.

Foch worked for the rest of his life with the shame and humiliation of that debacle in his mind. He studied the battle1elds of that war until he knew them as we'll as his own backyard. He studied the German war machine, the psychology of its leaders, the reason for their l mistakes and their successes. Later, as a professor in the War CoIeSe, ne wrote text DOCKS on the conduct of war and the principles of | war. He worked with enthusiasm and patriotic fervor to indoctrinate l the young French officers with the | principle of the offensive at all costs. Battles are won morally, as we'll as l materially, he said, and he stressed | the moral element in modern warfare. In the World War. As a general commanding a force of 120,0O0 men, Foch found himself op- pose by a German army of 100000 men at the first battle of the Marne in 1914.
