IS NOW KNOWN A§ ‘THE REVOLUTION Upheaval in Greece Now Desig- nated by That Title by Greeks Athens, Sept. 29, (Correspondence) —The upheaval in public affairs which Greece has passed through in the last few months is now officially designated 8s “the revolution” and it will doubt- less go down in the records of the European war as the Greek Revolu- tion of 1917. Premier Venizelos gave an indication of this in repeatedly re- ferring to “the revolution” in his ad- dress to parliament. | While it has been a peaceful, and largely a bloodless revolution, yet to the Greeks, it has revolutionized their Dpolitical system almost as much as the Russian upheaval has affected the Russians. The abdication of King Constantine and the Crown Prince on an ultimat- um of the protecting powers, France, liching Blisters Formed Grust On Hands. Swelled in Blotches. | Red and Angry Looking.

England and Russia, backed by a mil- itary and naval demonstration; the setting up of a new king and the re- call of Venizelos to direct the central government at Athens after he had i set up a separate provisional govern- ment at Saloniki the complete revers- al of policy toward the European war by Greece joining the Entente allies; and, finally, the complete disappear- jance of royalist control of public af- fairs, and the re-establishment of a government based on the control by responsible cabinet ministers—these summarize some of the outstanding features of what is now designated as the Greek Revolution. Mr. Venizelos in a recent statement | summed up some of the general pur- poses the revolution had in view as | follows: “In participating in this world-war at the side of democratic states in a vex;itable holy-war against the imper- ialist pretensions of Germany, he said, “we will not only succeed in recon- quering our national territory from our traditional enemies, Tyrkey and Bulgaria now ranged with Germany. We will not. only succeed in re-estab- lishing our national honor, clouded by the failure of the ex-king to defend Serbia, in accordance with our treaty obligations. We will not only defend our national interests at the coming peace congress, and assure our na- tional future. We will become, also, an honored member of the family of liberal states which will constitute the Congress of Peace.” The parliamentary session now go- ing on is defining what the revolution has accomplished. This is being done by the presentation of the diplomatic negotiations through all the troubled period, with notable speeches by Ven- izelos and the minister of Foregn Af- fairs, on the chief points of accusa- tion against the government which was compelled to abdicate. Foremost in this accusation is the desertion of Greece of Serbia and the complete disregard of the Serbo-Greecian treaty; and the surrender to Bulgaria of the Greek fort Rupal and other strategic points, in accordance with an understanding with the German au- thorities, according to the charge of M. Venizelos and M. Politis. The parliamentary discussion is soon to be followed by a lively campaign all over the country to secure united approval for general mobilization. Among the peasant classes there is said to be much apathy over getting into the war, and the speeches of Ven- izelos are considered as a supreme ap- peal to the nation to accept the re- sults of the revolution and to do its part in prosecuting the war as one of the Entente allles. It is one of the peculiarities of the war, that although Greece is officially declared to be in the war yet there is no gen- eral mobilization of the Greek army. This is due largely to the dual gov- ernments existing through the last year, with parts of armies under each government. One of these, the Venizelist provi- sional force organized at Saloniki is an effective force of three divisions of 60,- NEW BRITAIN You can nip coldsin the bud—Clear your head instantly— (at no cost to you) 2 4 lo.tm:mu have nsed th::tflwn For trial can KONDON MFQ. CO., Mumntarouss, Minn. A ——— 1000 men. This has now become the nucleus of the new army, with another 60,000 men to be added from the | classes of 1916 and 1917, and the gen- eral mobilization bringing the force up | to its full war strength of 300,000 men. It is to realize these military plans that Venizelos is now making his ap- peals first to parliament and then to the country, the keynote of all the ap- {penls being that the revolution is a | success and now call for the united i support of the people in prosecuting | the war. | While a revolution in the govern- ment system has been going on there 1s little outward evidence of change in the social and economic conditions of the country. There is none of the dis- jorder which usually accompanies rev- | olutions, and life goes on in the citles and towns about the same as usual. Martial law prevails and squads of sol- diers do provost duty through the | streets. But the general public is unconcerned; the streets are crowded as usual; the theaters and restaurants i do a thriving business. FALL RESULTS FATALLY. Boy Struck Dumb and Spinal Menin- gitis Develops.

BIRTHDAY PARTY. Viola Hawksworth Entertains ‘Woodmont Summer Home. Last Saturday there was a delight- ful birthday party at the Woodmont Auxillary school. Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Hawksworth, who have spent the summer at the shore here, gave a floral party in honor of the 11th birth- day of their daughter Viola. The guests included the entire sixth grade of the school and the teachers and Miss Alice Martin. The room was prettily trimmed with pink and yel- low crepe paper, and the floral decor- ations were autumn leaves and flow- ers. Viola proved a charming little hostess, her mother and grandmother helping to entertain. Some of the enjoyable games were “Mother Goose Party”, “Cinderella”, “Buster Brown”, ‘“Peanut Hunt” and “Fishing Pond"”. Prizes were award- ed, and the unlucky ones were con- soled with stick pins, To the delight at of the children the refreshments con- | sisted of ice cream and cake with a souvenir for each guest.

Among the gifts presented to Viola were a white ivory manicuring set, silk bags, ribbons and handkerchiefs. The happy children sang national TRADE SCHOOL NOTES.
