in her mistaken preaching She. at least, seemed to
have nothing to lose as woman of the Commune.
Certainly she did not appear to to be the sort of
a helpmate would desire to put on what she
had called the grievous yoke of matrimony."
And as ran my eye over the women and the pitt
full little they seemed to be barren-faced,
drearyeyed collection of unfortunates, who-had not
sufficient intelligence to the fatal faacy of the
wicked doctrines which had been taught them and
which they were sincerely endeavoring to spread
throughout unhappy Russia.
At last the meeting called to order and the
first speaker began to speak in a monotonous tone as
her long, horse-shaped face and her enormous PEN
duous ears held my gaze. She at once started in to
repeat the phrases that had been taught her and ad
vocated the breaking down of all conventional mar
rage She insisted that it for the best interest
of the State for women to choose different father
for each child if they wished She gathered some
enthusiasm for this monstrous programme as she ran
along with her speech, and she finished in words
something like this, as best can recall them:
Young ladies, consider yourselves as NATURES
grand laboratory. Look at the wretched children
whom the old church marriages have turned out.
Why shouldn't woman experiment to find hitting
fathers for her children, just farmer experiments
to find fitting seeds for his soil? Each is crop only

CHAPTER vi.
Continued from Last Sunday


> BY American Weekly Britain Rights
N Asst Sunday narrated the details of my last
l interview with the unfortunate Czarina of
Russia, shortly before the execution Of the en-
tire imperial family.
AS left the presence of that unfortunate woman
that day resolved to return to my monastery in
the town of Tsaritzin and recruit my followers there
and seek the liberation of the imperial prisoners.
But events were following each other with Devil
dering suddenness Scarcely had returned TO my
church when / became involved in my first serious
difficulty with the revolutionary government.
The doctrines of Communism were being taught to
the people, and some of the propaganda wicked
and utterly demorazing.
My American readers may not fully grasp the full
hdeous meaning of Communism. If Communism is
to succeed the State must be supreme above all else
above the life of the individual the bonds of matri
mony, the relation of mother and child, and of
course, all property of all kinds belongs to the State.
The Communists realized the menace to them in
the natural bonds of affection between husband and
wife and between mother and child. So long hus-
band chung to wife mother to daughter, the true
doctrine of Communism was threatened.
And so it was that one day saw propaganda
train stop for few minutes in my city and then pass
on. On the sides were painted scenes which preached
the advantages to women of huSbandleSS marriages
without ceremony, and exploited the new law of
the revolutionary government that after two months
children should be taken from their mothers breasts
and become the property of the State.
few days later was told that ship had
fved on the River Volga at our city with government
officials on board to preach the religion Of free
love, unbessed marriage and the abhorrent doctrine
that our tender maidens were the property of the
State, beyond the reach of religious guidance or pa
ternal authority
1t seemed to me my duty to investigate this and
j asked my wife, Nine. Trufanoff, to come with me
to attend lecture on the ship that night was not

these women and the children for few moments

"They our children" the woman replied very
frankly None of us are married women, you know.
But still we have given these fine children to the
State. They finer children in fact, because we,
mothers, have never been stifed by the grevous
yoke of matrimony.
/ looked at the woman with some curiosity, and
encouraged her to speak,further.
Our bodies, like our property, if we have any,
belong to the State in Communism. And it is logical
that children, too, should belong to the State

LEGION SEEKS MISSING MAN
Mother Appeals to Organization to
Help Locate Her Son, Boyd
Martin Mcclure.

Diligent search is being made for
Boyd Martin Mcclure, a World war
veteran, who formerly served in the
One Hundred and Twenty eighth, One
Hundred and Thirtieth and Four Hun
dred and Seventieth aero squadrons,
until December, 1918. To the efforts
of the various civil organizations, gov
ernment agencies have added their
services in the quest for the missing
man.
Mcclure, whose mother resides in
Mckenzie, Tenn, enlisted in the army
in Great Falls, Mont, in August, 1917.
Prior to that time he had been en-
ployed by the Great Northern railway
as a fireman. He reached England
while in the service, but was returned
and discharged, leaving for the West.
According to reports made by investi-
gators, he worked for the Great North
ern after his return. He Is said to
have lost his personal effects in a fire
which destroyed a railroad hotel in
Fargo, N. D., among which was his
army discharge, which had previously
been sent to him by his mother.
In May, 1922, he made application
to the executive secretary of the Red
Cross in Billings, Mont, for certifi-
cate Of discharge in lieu of the lost
original. Further trace Of the man
was found at the Salvation Army head
quarters in that city, where Mcclure
was guest about this time, but the
man disappeared in June, 1922. No
trace has been found since that time,
though it is believed that he may be at
work in the Dakotas or Montana.
McClure's mother Is said to be in
need Of help at her home in Tennessee
and seeks the assistance of the Ameri-
can Legion in locating her son, though
she fears he is dead or a patient in
some hospital, because of an illness
which followed an attack Of influenza
while in service.
At the time of enlistment the man
was twenty-five years of age. He was
six feet in height, weighed about 146
pounds, had brown eyes, brown hair,
fair complexion, upper teeth slightly
protruding. Any member of the Legion
or other person in possession of infor-
nation concerning this man should ad-
dress Mrs. U. G. Mcclure, Mckenzie,

familiar for several years. His head
quarters will be at Pueblo. Mr.. Hoppe

cational work along marketing lines
and much of the progress of the CO.

lowing graduation he took charge OF
his fathers irrigated ranch at PenrOSer
