In addition to the great procession of communist stu- dents in Moscow on January 7, re- ports from the provinces indicate that in virtually every city and village of Russia these atheist youths held mock celebrations in the churches, To Close Churches The government, which in some ways oppressed the churches from the very beginning of the Bolshevist re- volution, did not, however, take any steps to close churches until this year., In Moscow several of the smaller street chapels before which the faithful were accustomed to bow and cross themselves for many cen- turies, are now to be closed, it is an- | nounced. Workmen at the town of Briansk have just passed a resolution to deport all the local clergymen, and the official press, particularly the smaller papers intended for the workmen now contain daily attacks on religion in general. One of them has inaugurated a campaign against baptism. Sincere Atheists Most of-the young communists who are now directing:the anti-re- liglous campaign declare they are sincere atheists, even though most of them have as parents peasants who cross themselves before every shrine, and who even now consider their chil- dren as anti-Christ, surely bound for hell and damnation. An amusing story is told in Moscaw of one of these youths, to absolve himself of the sins of having scoffed at God during the celebration, went to church the next day, confessed his sin ,and accepted a heavy penance.

AMERICANS LIKE BLACK TEA BETTER THAN GREEN Imports to This Country From Japan Are Slowly Decreasing Each Year, | Washington, March 9-—Americans| are gradually shifting from the use| of green teas to black or oolong teas| and imports from Japan have been gradually declining while those rrnm! China, Ceylon and India are on the| fncrease, according to xovr-rnmr-m.i tea examiners | Abaut 15,600,000 pounds more of | tea were examined at the ports of| entry last year than during 1921, A total of 87,898,221 pounds of a were examined, during 1922, Of this| total 1,620,162 pounds or 1,80 per | cent were rejected by the examiners, Examinations at eastern ports showed | an increase while the western ports and central port, have fallen off.| This condition ha® been shown every | year since the World war due to the fact that the Atlantic transportation so crippled during the World war is gradually returning to normal,! and more shipments are now-coming | via the Suez canal and the Panama canal, | The last four years reveals several interesting facts. The percentage of importations of teas from Japan| proper has fallen ort considerably.| The percentage of China tea im- ported has steadily been on the in- crease since 1919, and during last year aearly 20 per cent of team im- | ports were received from China. | Exports of tea from the United| States more than doubles during the| year, but was still far behind 1919| ard 1920 when exports were abnor.| mally high. i BOOKKEEPERS SMILE. Occupation Has Again Become Pos- sible With Advent of New Money, Moscow, March 9.-—Bookkeeping has become a possible occupation again in Russia with the advent of the new money. Six ciphers have been thrown into the discard. The new bills which take the place of the old 1,000,000 ruble tokens call for one ruble, and accountants now can book small sums without writing ci- phers clear across the page. Also it is easier for Americans to| realize a dollar is worth 40 rubles, instead of 40,000,000. A good flavoring extract is the soul of a cake.

POETS HOMESTEAD HASGHANGED HANDS Birthplace of Cary Sisters Famous| for Their Verse, Has Been Sold Cineinnatl, March 9,—(By the Asso- clateq Press)~—The Cary Homestead has been sold.

Whose lineage dates back to niembess of the Pilgrim expedition, The homestead has for years been the gathering place of those who admired the works of the two sisters. Alice, In the early career wrote the verse part of her “homestead" | the first stanza of which follows: |8 Our old brown Homestead reared Its wall | From the wayside dust aloof, | Where the apple boughs could almost cast Their fruits upon its roof.: And the cherry tree so near it grew That when awake I've lain In the Jonesome nights, I've heard the limbs As they creaked against the pane; And those orchard tree, O! those or-| chard trees, » I've geen my little brothers rocked | In their tops b3 summer breeze. The ' sisters were constant com-| panions and never married. They died in 1871, Alice at the age of 51 and| Phoebe at 47. They are buried in New York. - “ask ror Horlick’s .
