them TO come up and share her
pleasure. The green frog fatty re-
fused 20 leave his grassy home, but
the gray squirrel. after thinking it
over, decided to go. He climbed up
the tall trunk 20 the first branch
and found il every bit as delightful
as The little thrush had said: so then
and there he decided 10 stay. As
soon as he had rested. he went to
work TO make his nest. But the
little thrush didn't stop at the first
branch. Each day she kept growing
a little stronger, and each day she
kept finding something new and
beautiful that the higher branches
had 10 offer, and each day she beg
ged the squirrel TO follow her "Oh,
if you would only come up here"
she would says. I'm sure you would
be happier; why, I am getting
stronger every day; I feel as if
something wonderful were going to
happen 20 me-"
"Oh, I don't think anything very
wonderful can happen to you" called
back the squirrel. You are only a
little brown bird and about all you'll
ever do will be to fly and chirp a
little. Please don't bother me any
more with your coaxing. I'm get
ting quite tired of it, and besides
I've fully made up my mind to stay
right here" After that the little
thrush stopped coaNng the squirrel
and spent all her time and strength
in trying to reach the top of the
tree.
One spring morning she reached
it-the very tip-top of the biz tree
and on, what a glorious moment
Her little heart almost burst with
the joy of it all as she looked out
over the sUn-lit tree tops and spires
and up into the blue sky. Oh. if she
could only tel someone about it.
and then, the wonderful thing hap
pened. for just as she opened her
mouth out poured one of the sweet
est bird songs the world has ever
heard.
Grace and Charlie on their way
to school stopped TO listen. "Oh,
look" cried Charlie. the bird il
on the very tip-top Of the big treei"
"Oh. I see it!' called Grace. Doesn't
it sound as if it were telling us how
beautiful It is away up there?"

Once upon a time a fine, tall,
straight tree grew on the edge of a
beautiful wood. The tree was so
tall that it's top branches reached
out over the heads of all its neigh
bors. One morning three friends
were talking together under the
tree: a fat green frog. a frisky gray
squirrel, and a little brown thrush
whose wings were not strong enough
to fly.
"Oh. my" said the little brown
trush looking up into the green
branches. wouldn't it be fine if we
could all live up among those shiny
green leaves?"

squirrel. but I'm pretty we'll con-

Russia

Williamstown, Mass, Aug. lit
was autocracy and reaction which kept
Russia from giving her best efforts to
the allies in the war, declared Baron
Sergius A. Korff, former deputy gen
eral of Finland, in an address to-day
before the Institute Of Politics, in ses-
sion at Williams college. Russia was
sincere in her friendship TO France but
if she had a constitutional government
she would have been stronger and
surer ally. Baron Korff's subject was
'Russia's Foreign Relations During the
Last Half Century" and this, his first
lecture of a series, dealt entirely with
treaties and agreements made with
France.
Recalling Russias part in the war,
he called attention to the fact that
the victory on the Marine and the re-
sistance on the western front was
due in no small part to Russia'9 role
in the east. He reminded his readers,
moreover, that the aid which the
French statesmen gave TO the Russian
reactionaries in their prosecutions OF
their political opponent will always
remain a dark page in the French con-
history"

HARDING PRESENTED MEDALS
To Non-English Speaking Pupils Of
New Bedford, Mass.

Plymouth, Mass. Aug. Thirty
Polish, French, Italian and Portuguese
boys and girls received silver medals
from the hands of President Harding
here to-day, as winners in the fifth an
nual contest for excellence in the read
ing of English conducted by the New
Bedford Evening Standard. The medals
are presented each year to children of
non English speaking psrentage in the
public and parochial schools of that city
for facility in reading and understand
ing the English language.
Faced with a population more than
80 per cent of which represents foreign
born whites, the Evening Standard de
termined in 1917 as a matter of public
policy TO initiate reading contests for
children of the foreign born. Not only
as an incentive to the closer study of
the language of the country by it's flu
ture citizens but as an aid to the ere
alton of common ideals the competi-
tions for medals have proved their
value.
Polish, French, Greek, Portuguese,
Italian, Syrian, German, Swedish,
Spanish, Hebrew and Russian children,
and youngsters of 81 other national
titles which find refuge in New Bed
ford, have been contestants in former
competitions. A Chinese boy won
medal one year.
On one side of the medals, which
are examples of the finest art of the
engraved above the name
of the winner, is, Blessed is he that
readeth and they that hear" On the
reverse is depicted family reading

HAVE HAD ENOUGH
OF BOLSHEVISM
Party of Russians Who Left United
States Wish They Were Back
in u. S. A.

Warsaw, Aug. Ralph Rimar, for.
merly an art student in Detroit and
Charleston, w. Va, who left the Unit
ed States via Canada early in January
this year with 700 other Russians, TO
take UP life under bolsheviki rule, is
now in this city. All the other mem
bers of the party, he says, "have had
enough of bolshevism and wish they
were back in the United States"
Mr. Rimar was in soviet Russia
three months, visiting Petrograd, Mos
COW, Kiev and other towns. Conditions
generally, he said, were gradually be-
coming worse everywhere. The bolshe-
wiki conhscated all his documents, in
Guiding $500, he said, as well as copies
of application for American citizenship,
when he crossed the Esthonian frontier
on his way into soviet Russia. He is
eager to return to the United States
but without credentials, is unable TO
obtain a passport
He says he never believed bolshe-
vism was a success in Russia but made
the trip "to satisfy his curiosity and
for fun" but that he didn't have any
pleasure at all, and his curiosity is
thoroughly satisfied. Mr.. Rimar said he
was arrested FIVE times, went without
square meal for IL weeks and that
II he is ever able to get back TO the
United States he will stay there for
all time"
The prodigal says he made inquiries
about Emma Goldman during his tour
of Russia but no one with whom he
talked knew her whereabouts. From
other sources it was learned the de-
parted American anarchist leader is liv-
ing in Petrograd at a hotel conducted
by the soviets. Mr. Rimar went TO the
United States eight years ago from
part of Russia which is now included
within the Polish republic and where
his parents reside.
Many other Russians who left the
United States within the past year for
their native country have become dis
satisfied and begun 10 drift back across
the frontiers of states bordering Rus
sia on the west Some Of these are
planning to return to America--if they
can arrange it.
Bolshevik soldiers guard the soviet
and only certain persons
are given permission to leave the
country, these including Polish pris-
oners who are being exchanged. Never
theless, by bribery and other means,
great numbers OF persons are crossing
into adjacent countries each night Pol
ssh government officials have estimat-
ed that about 10000 have been enter
ing Poland from Russia every month,
despite efforts of the Polish authorities
10 keep them out. Only a very small
of these people carry the
proper bolsheviki credentials.
