CONSCIOUS OF HUNGER

Everyone is always conscious of being unfed. Thinking all the time about food is very destructive.
 And the surest sign of being un- dernourished is not the necessity of thinking about 1t, but the concrete fact that one has lost twenty pounds in a short time.
 "It is possible to live on and on with little to eat. But we are a finicky people and want things pal atable. as well as something merely to assuage hunger
 Life in Russia today Is difficult. They have had war for six years, a blockade, a revolution, failure of crops, food shortage and bad hous- ing conditions.
 Outside of going to the theatre there is nothing to make for gayety any more.

 NEW YORK, Sept 15.--"The Soy jet is abandoning the more radical features of it's programme" was the message brought back from Rus sia by Miss Louise Bryant, represen- tative of the International News Ser vice, who has returned from that strife-torn land.
