"Raes-.why, America doesn't know what rags are ir Russia" was the exclamation recently made by n world famous Russian singer whe was on his way to America. And his comment is more forcefuiiy borne out by a cablegram sent py Col. William N. Haskell, head or the American Relief Administration in Russia, to Herbert Hoover, head of the organization, in which Col onel Haskell forecasted that mil lions of children and adults saved from famine last winter face death from exposure this winter because of the lack of warm clothing. Particularly urgent is the need of the children, for many of these who have been going to A. R. A. kit chens for food will be unable to go now because of the lack of wraps of any kind. In the homes for children too, the need is almost as urgent. for the general costume of the little ones in these institutions has been found to consist of but one

 In some ways the condition of the adult population is even worse, for the cost of such clothing as there is for sale in the cities is far above their reach. With a pair of shoes costing more than a months wages and an overcoat of even fair quality equivalent in price to a years pay. the Russian workman is .'out of luck.
 To help in meeting this crises, the American Relief Administration has instituted system of "Cloth- ing Remittances'. similar in plan and operation to the famous Hoover Food Remittances. and several hun dred banks and other organizations which co-operated in handling money for food packages are, being asked to do the same for pc sons who wish to send clothing remit

 The great mystery of Easter Is land lies in it's monuments. These are huge images, fashioned rough Ily in human form, standing on great stone platforms, underneath
 which, in little square apertures,
 were placed the bones of the dead. There are ten images and between 400 and 800 tombs.
 Some of the statues are of enor- nous size and fully seventy feet lin height. Several of them are not in their proper positions, but have been left incomplete, or not mount ed on platforms.
 There is unmistakable evidence iof the sudden abandonment of work by the men who made them and Iset them up after drawing them in some marvellous manner over miles and miles of rough and hilly lcountry.

 "Tens of thousands of workmen must have been employed, drawn from the islands in the ring around Easter Island and the monuments were erected by the people of some bygone Empire of the Pacific which has long disappeared. Food would have been brought to Easter Island for the workers in canoes, when the chiefs came to bury their famous dead.
 The submergence of the sur rounding archipelagoes would have cut off the food supply of the workers and left them in des- perate state, so that they must have abandoned their task and, pressed by hunger. fallen on one another and became cannibals.

OlSaSrecS WlIH WellS.
 Nor is my agreement with MT. Wells on this subject based on any readiness to accept prophecy of dis aster. I do not think now it is "a matter for prophecy at all. Some considerable portions of Eastern and Central Europe are palpably retro grading before our eyes.
 The urban life characteristic of civilization is diminishing, if not even breaking up. and these coun- tries are reverting to kind of peasant or agrarian status.
 The characteristic features of the situation in Eastern and Central Europe extend far beyond that area, in which we detect the actual dissolution of the civilization we have known.
 From this we may fairly infer that the process of retrogression will continue and will extend if no intelligent effort is made to under stand and remove the causes. Those causes seem to lie rather in the moral and political than in the eco homie sphere.
 In the first instance they are due Ito the fact that the temper engen- dored by the Great War has never yielded. as one might have expected it would yield, to a more peaceful frame of mind and desire for common ,'co-operation in the repair of damages.
 War No Cure.
 On the contrary, war has proved that it is not purge of any evil passion; it has deepened suspicious and animosties and the belief in violence and violent methods.
 The result of this violence is that people are living in fear and anx- iety. The old security, the sense of settled order and of constitutional principles which no party would touch, has largely gone and the basis for peaceful economic co-opera- tion with>it.
 The first thing to do is to en- doayor after genuine beace-a peace of the spirit and not merely of the letter.
 In substance, if not in form, the Versailles Treaty has to be re- yised. Russia has to be admitted to the comity of nations.
 There is definite school of opinion which, regardless of conse- quonces, is all for national, racial, class ascendany and is prepared for any degree of violence in the execu- ton of it's aims and completely reckless of the probabilities of ulti-
