General Linked by the

&C. Harris and Ewing

Gen. John ]. Pershing was the
nearest relative" of the form that
reposed last night IN the rotunda
of the Capitol.
His participation in all of the
ceremonies touched the emotions of
all who were permitted to follow
them. This was especially so when
the floral tributes were placed on
the casket after its arrival in the
rotunda.
From far below on the streets
there was waited on the breeze the
faint strains of The Son of God
Goes Forth to War" The Presi-
dent and the official party had
placed their wreaths on the nag
covered coffin. Then Gen. Pershing
stepped forward, every inch a
soldier. He reverently deposited the
wreath he had brought there. He
stepped backward into the faint
shadows that spread through the
tomb-like hall. He Strengthened to
his full height. His right hand
snapped to his forehead. For a full
FIVE seconds il remained there. Then
it dropped to his side and he bowed
his head. And every eye witness
swallowed at a strange lump in the
throat and furtively wiped tear
from the eye.
Pershing was the general of the
army. But he might have been the
father Of the dead soldier. His. at
tftude showed love and reverence.

Lore and Murder in Frozen North

Edmonton Alberta, Dec. PA
weird story Of Eskimo love and
ruthless murder was brought in by
messenger today from the icy region
of Wager's bay, 80 miles east OF the
Hudson's bay trading post-nearly
five months after the quadrun!e
tragedy occurred.
The Staying, according to the re-
ports received at mounted police
HEADQUARTERS, revolved about the
amolss Of trader named Otto Bind
er.
Binder, the report said. became al
tractcd by tie wife OF aT Eskimo
and her husband and the husbands
father volunteered to find Binder an
other Eskimo woman equally attrac-
tive
Setting out on their search, they
came to hut in which they found q
woman they thought would be at
tractive to Binder. The only draw
back was that this woman also was
married, and her husband refused 10
part with her. The bride hunters
solved the problem by shooting and
and seriously wounding the husband.
His cousin, however. took offense
and shot the younger Of the pair.
The elder man then opened fire,
but also was slain by tn cousin after
he had exhausted all his ammunition
The cousin then proceeded to STAY
the woman to save whom husband
and father had started on their bride
quest.
This left a four year old girl
fatherless and mothcrless, so she was

The question, however, remains I'M

Hence the appeal for particular at
tention to the needs of Russia at this
time. Additional help must be sent
as soon as possible. 1t is imperative,
of course that these Russian folks

As for holiday greeting, they don't
man anything in many parts OF Rus
sia just now.
True food in large quantities is
being rushed into the devastated re-
gions, and to = great extent has
helped to stay the hand of the fam
inc. But the situation, according to
cable dispatches is still serious and
assistance from America and other
countries must continue for some
time in order to carry the hungry
Russians past this death-dealing
menace.
While Americans are planning to
enter into the spirit Of the great
holiday with customary generosity and
freedom, millions Of Russians. at
fected by the whitening drought, will
have to make The best OF very bad

eat whatever they can rustic up along

tuities from mother, father, sister,
brother and so do their sisters and
their cousins and their aunts. 1t is
an American institution in which the
spirit of give and let others give
stands out in bold relief.
In Russia it has always been very
much the same. The only difference
is that this year the Russians are
confronted by barrier of want and
insufficiency with little means at
hand to scale the wall.
The plan of the A. R. A., will
provide comfort and Christmas cheer
for many of the sufferers in the land

remittances which have been sent
many persons will be able to keep
themselvs in food for a good spell.
