225,000 PERSONS
 NOW AT RODOSTO
Town In Thrace, Normally Populated by 25,OOO. Is Overrun With Greek
 Troops and Refugees.

Rodosto, Thrace, Sept. 20 - (By Associated ress)--This little town on the north coast of the Sea of Mar mora is overcrowded with Greek troops and refugees, and is fast de. veloping into communistic center Two governments are attempting tc function, one composed of royalists and the other of followers of former Premier Nen,zelos. but the communists are continually stirring up trouble and considerable disorder prevails.
 The city, which dates back to cen turies before Christ. has accommod oda- tions for only about 25,000 inhabita nts but there are here now approximately 20,0G0 Greek soldiers and 200, 900 refugees. Under these conditions of congestion deporable lack of food and water exists.
 The communistic influence has per vaded the demobilized troops, gangs of which loot the food shops at will and terrorize the citizens. Numerous instances of the naltreatment of women are reported. There are many deserters from the Greek army who after their arrival. shot their officers and paraded the streets with fam boyant banners.

MAIL ORDER TRADE
 IS POPULAR HERE
Merchants Indignant But People
 Buy from Pretty Catalogues

Charlotte Amalia. St Thomas, V. l., Sept. 21.-St. Thomians v have been bitten by the mail-order bug. Pretty catalogues from American mail order houses are to be seen everywhere, and postal records indicate that goods amounting to s1 LOGO a day are deliv- cred in St. Thomas alone by parcel post on c. o. D. basis.
 Merchants are indignant that their stores should be thus slighted, but give as a reason for their inability to compete in price with the mail order houses the fact that they are still loaded up with high price goods de livered to them by American manu lecturers and exporters as soon as shipping facilities were available af ter the war.
 Those who buy by mail say they are able to make considerable saving by buying in the United States, anl they are becoming more and more fixed in the habit of ordering from cata- logues. Mai-order buying has be- come such a habit that it is said to be frequent occurrence for clerks working in the stores to buy by mail. rather thah to purchase where they are employed.
 One merchant said it was not only the fact that a saving might be made, but that n1all-order buyers liked to receive pleasantly worded acknoul- edgments of their orders, and other letters from the mail order houses.
 Many of the purchases are for small
 ich pa two or three dollars in advance, hop ing to have sufficient money to pay the balance when the c. o. D. parcels arrive. When the shoes or hat or suit comes to hand and the balance of the money has not been earned, many Of the parcels have to he returned, and the prospective purchaser loses his initial naYment.

COLLEGE FOR WOMEN IS RE0PENED TODAY
New London Institution An.
 nounces Changes in Faculty

New London, Sept. 2o,-Connecticut College for Women began its 9th aca-
 demic year today with chapel serv-

 Registration at the college shows a peak figure of nearly 425 including a freshman class of 125. The freshman entrants were selected from a group of about 400 applicants. Last year 125 freshmen were admitted but in view of the limited dormitory accom- modations it may happen that next years entrants will be less than that number.

Selvage, retiring; Ida Bell Post, instructress in physi- cal education to succeed Dorothy Wulf, retiring; Ruth Bacon, 22, in- structress in the department of sec retarial studies to succeed Jean Fairies, resigned; Agnes Leahy, '21. secretary of the new personnel bureau; Helen Tryon, '22. assistant in chemistry and home economies; Ruth Crosby, in- structress in English to succeed Mar ian Robinson and Ruth Irwin, as- sistant in mathematics and assistant to the registrar

that although its drainage area is but
Onethird that of the combined Missis-
sippi and Missouri its average and

PLANT INDOOR WINDOW BOX
Small Expense and Little Effort Re-
quired to Have Ornamentation
Always Pleasing.

To the real garden lover the charm Of
the garden can be extended all through
the winter months, for a window gar
den gives cheer to q room and Is al
ways source of interest and delight
Window boxes can be kept charming
for the entire year by filing them with
hardy begonias and ferns, suggests the
Christian Science Monitor. Another in
teresting arrangement, all In green, Is
of small palms and ferns Of the long
leaved Boston type, and asparagus
sprengeri to trail over the edge. Prim-
rose, the Chinese or common variety,
and Irish ivies make q window box
with a delightful color note. For late
autumn, If the room is kept cool, some
of the darling little chrysanthemums
In brown and yellow are effective and
they will last several weeks. For the
late winter or early spring Towering
bulbs may be used among ferns.
In planting a winter garden one
must always remember that plants do
not thrive near steam heat, and If the
radiator is under the window a broad
shelf should be placed six inches or
more above 1t and the box set back on
the shelf, so that The force of hot air
does not come too near the foliage.

fort required for a beautiful indoor

ICE BY ELECTRIC PROCESS

The ice used on our tables has long

Philadelphia North American. Hotels,

the process of condensation these

densation and vaporization is pro-

Restoration Worth While.

Why build new cottages? Why not
repair old ones? These were the ques-
lions asked by the Society for the Pro
lection of Ancient Buildings, in Eng
land, and answered successfully. The
society took a veritable relic Of old
England, five centuries old If q single
day, in the shape of two dwellings un-
der one roof at birthstone, in Suffolk
The thick timbers, seasoned to the
quality of iron, were good, but the
roof, the floor and the windows were
defective. In fact the building was
habitable only on a portion Of the
ground floor. Nothing daunted, the So
ciety set to work and, by judicious
restoration, made the old dwellings as
sound as a bell. The total cost of the
work, including the freehold site, was
$3,612. A new cottage would have cost
at least $4,75O, not including the site.
Is it any wonder that the society Is
casting round for other old haunts to

Pearls From Aerrjnos

French pearls were very popular
before the war. To make these arti-
fetal pearls, the French craftsmen OBJ
tanned fish scales from the Russian
bleak fisheries, and used these sheeny
scales to give glass beads the luster of
pearls. The war stopped the Russian
fishermen, and consequently French
pearl-makers could no longer work
Therefore great efforts were made to
find a substitute for the Russian fish
scales. Now it has been found that
the scales of certain sea herring and
shad possess a delicate luster similar
to oriental pearls. The silvery coat
ing is removed and from it essence
dOrient" or pearl essence is made.
The essence adheres like cement; and
a glass bead which has been coated
with it bears a passable resemblance
to a genuine pearl.

The. cry that Russia was wholly

of such articles in Russian market
stalls. They are of Russian, English,

preface, the editor remarks: Much
as the passing of old families from the

new class of landed gentry, possessed
Of means enabling them to develop es-

DEFINES RIGHT OF CARRIERS
Long Litigation Over Seemingly Slight
Matter Really Was Matter of
High Importance.

Long litigation over possession of a
loaf of bread at last has confirmed the
claim of a common carrier to posses
sion of articles left behind by forget
aful passengers, says the New York
Telegraph. BY such seemingly trifiing
incidents are established principles of
law and equity often brought to the
attention of the public.
The issue grew out of the arrest of a
man who picked up a package left by
another passenger, on a seat of New
York subway train. The trainmaster
demanded the package under the COM
panys rule requiring all such estrays
to be turned in at the Office subject to
claim by the owners. Although it then
was discovered that the package con-
tanned nothing more valuable than a
5-cent loaf of bread the matter went
to litigation.
Through all the devious ways that
such seemingly petty cases get up to
the highest court, the case reached the
Court of Appeals of the state. There,
after az solemn deliberation as is given
~ ISSUES lnNolNlllS IaIse dIAouHtS VI
money and u1OTC TnUTnentous principles,
the court held that the rule of the COM
pany was based on a well-established
principle of law.
The finder could have no claim to the
article as having been lost. 1t merely
had been left by the owner on the
property of the carrier, who at once
became bailee for the owner. The
other person, instead of acquiring any
right to 1t as finder under the law,
technically became a thief If he re-
tanned it, Notwithstanding his ex-
pressed intention to advertise for the
owner.
