Russia’s plight is greatly. to be deplored:-from:a standpoint of freedom and democracy: It is, however, only what has: been expeoted for some time. Ever since the overthrow of ‘the’ Kerensky. government, the. Allles have anticipated just. such ‘an outcome and have made ample provision against it. 1t is'a mistake to think Germany will be able to greatly reinforce her:| armies con uthe -western front with troops taken from Russia. Germany has overrun a large scope of territory belonging to Russia, and this ter- ritory she now demands as included in the peace terms so abjectly ac- cepted; by the Bolsheviki government. But demanding territory and holding -territory. are two very different propositions. This territory is peopled:-by: many races and by peoples of many- shades of polittcal belief. At5no time: has-the Bolshevik government been in anything like entire control: There ‘have always been disturbing elements, and the miere oc- cupatiow of. the.territory by Germany will not tend to harmonize.these-op- posingjelements. Germeaay will be forced,-if she holds the conquered. ‘ter- ritory;’ to. keep'‘large -standing armies there. In fact, it is -extremely doulsteul it she can reduce her armies on the eastern front to any extent, Monlp-tutuu,ovantsrwill disclose. whether or not she. will ectually be comprelled: to augment' them. o 1t ‘is, ‘unfortunately, true that Germany’s occupation of the Russian provinces has opened to her a new source of supplies. This, however, is not, in.itself a matter for great alarm. The pathetic. tales, of German hungu«ind misery are a part of the shrewd Germen game. to enlist the |: RED CROSS DANCES; sympathy of Americans and cause a letting up of the. strenuous program || A group of ladies of whom Mrs. that we have set ourselves.

Nothing' would pleaise: Germany more than for Americans to go into a funk over the Rus- sian.collapse and imagine that it has given her great advantage. Germany hasrcarefully cultivated the delusion of her invinclbllig‘ 1t is her great- est card and she plays it at every opportunlt}s But the Allies have-pretty well ‘taken her measure and are making thorough preparations to meet- hef fairly and conquer: her. The-significance ‘of the great Russian collapse is the pity of a great nation gone wrong, when such bright possibilities: were before it. THE BOOSTER. What-would Bemidji amount to.without the booster? Ever stop to X ask yourseifswhether you are:'boosting or just hanging on? The-booater is the fellow who'takes hold of a forlorn hope:-and by his cheerful optimism and bull-dog perseyerence keeps hammering away til1 he!accomplishes ‘his object. : o Little difficulties do not trouble the booster. He. fattens on them. He is 80 red-blooded that he scorns an easy walk-over in any undertaking. . Heusually hunts for game worth while, and in all -such ‘hunts the diffi- culties-are numerous and great. But he goes at them with a will to win, and WILL is the only quality under God’s heaven that will win. The booster doesn’t see the faults and failings of your town, or if he does. see. them, he passes them by with a smile and a cheerful prophecy that they ‘will soon be remedied. He sees only the bright side, and he so constantly plays up that bright side that atter] awhile you just naturally comé ‘to the conclusion that it far outweighs the dark, which is very sen- siblecof you, though you should have been helping him all along to bury the dark and hold up the light. But ‘don’t. get it under your hat that boasting is boosting. . The two are as wirely different as daylight and dark. The boaster is satised; the ‘booster.is ever reaching out for more. The boaster proudly calls attention to whet we'HAVE, but the booster calls attention to what.,we CAN have if we display sufficient energy. The boaster lives in the glory of the pres- ent, but,the booster is ever looking to the future and planning new and greater:achievements. * Beia booster.
