RUSSIAN RULE IS
DISLIKED BY r

Moscow, Dec. 17.-(Mail.)-It is be-
lieved here that if Mustapha Kemal
Pasha succeeds in establishing q real
Turkish nationalist power, the Turks
would form a new backbone for the
Moslem world. This might seriously
threaten the. domination of Russia in
the Caucasus, in Turkestan, Persia
and Armenia for there is a very gen.
eral racial and religious union among
the Moslems.
After all, we are Orientals and we
hate and desp,se the Russians" was
the way n Moslem stated the stu
alton.
While the central soviet here GER
tainly a helped the Turkish nation
alist movement. it is believed that a
conflict of interests and distrust will
assert itself when or if Turkey sue
ceeds in'her national aims. The Is
100000. Mos!ems OF Russia certainly
dislike Russian rule.
Members of the Moslem missions,
such as the Persian. Azerbaijan and
the %so-called .Turkestan soviet repub-
lies and the official Turkish mission
form a clique apart in Moscow and
cooperate materially.
Tn addition, there is the o
headed by Enver Pasha, the former
Turkish minister of war. who fed
from Turkey after the war and who
vas sentenced to death by Turkish
court martial. A member of his mis-
sion here is Djemal Pasha, another
young Turk lender, who also received
the same sentence.

DUEL
Is A FIZZLE

Buenos Aires, Jan. 1.-THE popu-
lar fancy has been captivated by the
details of duel which has been
fought here by DR.. Rodolfo Moreno,
and Senator Fernando Saguier.
The dispute Owe the phrase
olcgy Of a radical election poster.
When DIR. Moreno criticized it, Sena-
tor Saguier who was in no way re-
%sponsible for it. felt it incumbent upon
him to do battle for its author, with
the result that DIR. Moreno demanded
satisfaction.
They met with pistols in a suburb
Of Buenos Aires attended by several
distinguished men. .'s+
Both fired at the signal but neither
was wounded. DR.. Moreno's seconds
noted that Senator Saguier had fired
at the ground and they then insisted
that DR.. Moreno should stand up un-
armed to receive another shot but
Senator SaEuier refused to fire upon
him. A discussion resulted in a recon

Something to
Think Ab0ut
NO MEDIUM ROAD
By F. II. WALKER

EROM the lives of great men, whose
deeds are recorded in printed
words, if we set ourselves seriously to
the task we can CLEAN the veriest
flowers of wisdom.
Their stories are told in friendliness
for the encouragement of others.
Their noblest sufferings and stead
fast faith stand up like guide-posts
to direct tired, disheartened travellers
to pleasant destination.
Their experiences were the common
experience of mortals, filled with hard
ships, chatting and CALLING when ac-
cepted, and when overcome as sooth-
ing to the burning flesh as OIL
If you will read carefully you will
not be long in finding that these men
pursued no medium road
From the bottom to the top of
their career they proceeded straight
ahead, never feigning or falsifying
their emotions, never deceiving them
selves or others, which made conf
dence sure and success certain.
They accepted life as a prose ideal
and went gladly about making it a
glorious bit of poetry, radiant with
sentiment and love, leaving their
achievements behind so that another
generation might gather courage and
inspiration.
And this they did by doing their
fun duty, never turning back or fall
tering.
They developed the habit of look
ing up, thinking above the heads of
others and holding all the while to
their purpose.
Conscious of human frailties they
were ever humble, patient with
others and severe with themselves.
always exacting from their own
brains and bodies every ounce of
energy available and doing their ut
most whether tongues wagged praise
or condemnation.
They priced self-respect above the
empty laudations of the "crowd"
And when the shadows came, the
"crowd" stood dumb and the world
wept.
In their brief span they rose from
obscurity to eminence, setting an
example for the humble youths of
today and tomorrow-the boys and
girls, some of whom are wondering
how they too can climb to the
heights and become a light to the
generations not yet born.
The answer is: By avoiding the
medium road, by walking strong in
faith, by keeping faith with Truth
and Mercy and Love with God!

Capabilities or Weak.
nesses That Make for Success or

THE FINGER NAILS

OCCASIONALLY we find finger
~ nails that are long, thin and
curved or ribbed. These tell us soue-
thing Of the physical constitution of
the owner. He or she is likely to
have tendencies toward diseases of
the head, throat or bronchial tubes.
Nails that are seen, upon observation
to be unusually thick, bent and long,
are held to indicate nature inclined
to cruelty and unfaithfulness in love.
If the nails are square and very
short, we may read therein a tendency
toward disease Of the heart. This
must be confirmed, naturally, by close
inspection of the line Of the heart.
Nails that are brittle and inclined to
break easily are sign of i'll health
and nervous weakness.
There are some nails which narrow
very much at the base, coming some
times to point, or nearly to one. If
they also bend over the ends of the
fingers. we may read in them a sign
of spinal trouble, past, present or fu-

LABOR HALTS WORK RETURN
Union Men, Strikebreakers Battle In
c. M. e. St. p. Roundhouse.

Chicago-Clashes between union
and non-union workers, squabbles over
the terms of the Baltimore peace plan,
have halted the return of striking
shopmen to work in the shops here of
the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul
and the North Western railroads.
The demands of returning strikers
for concessions which it was said were
not provided for in the peace agree
ment were blamed for the disorders.
The most serious demonstration was
staged by several hundred men at the
Setonville round house of the St. Paul
where the strikers, arriving with their
lunch kits and overalls, were declared
to have set upon non-union workers
and refused to work with them. A
free for all fight resulted in which
several persons were injured
While no violence was reported in
any of the Chicago & North Western
shops, only handful of strikers were
back at work. Some of these left
after getting into alterations with the
non-union workers..
