Newspaper Page Text21 B JOAN OF ARC IS KNOWN HERE BETTER THAN A FOOTBALL CHAMPIONSHIP PENNANT. WAR RECORD OF W. EL S. PRESENTED TO SCHOOL. -ViJi.tX.-- 5ii mmmmmmmMfcUmsmmmmW V t ST Madam Alexandre KoIIonty, One of Revolution Leaders, in Portland in 1915. YOUNG WOMAN BRILLIANT Exponent of Scientific Socialism, Imprisoned Several Times, Now Bis Aid to Bolsheviki, Who Are In Control. JTadame Alexandre Kollonty, Joan of Arc of the Russian revolution which haa overturned Kerensky and his tem porary power, with the result that the Bolsheviki now sit in the saddle. Is known in Portland, where she visited 18 months ago. Many of the radical group here. In cluding Russians who have been exiled from their own country, know Madame Kollonty and describe her as a brilliant woman and a natural leader.. She Rave three lectures in Arion Hall. As a student of scientific Socialism, it is. said she ranks high, but it was felt here by some of the party workers that ehe was radical. With her experience in Russia and the fights she had been in there, it is said she is naturally more extreme than others of the Social istic faith who have not participated In such agitation nor have suffered for the cause as she has. Woman Arretted Mny Timfi. Madame Kollonty is 26 years old, vig- erous and attractive. She was arrest ed by" order of the Czar when she re turned to Russia after her visit in Portland. She was held in a fortress near Moscow, but was released when the revolution came and Kerensky came Into control. Not long afterward she was arrested again by order of the Kerensky govern ment for agitation of the Bolsheviki principles and again was held until the latest turn of the wheel that brought that party to the top. She has become inured to arrest and Imprisonment, however, because of her political faith. She was a mere slip of a girl in 1905 when the revolution broke outj She was arrested then and thrust into prison, but managed later to escape. H. M. Wicks, secretary of the Port land Socialist party, who is a lecturer on principles of Socialism and who is giving a series of lectures in Arion Hall this Winter, met Madame Kollonty "While she was in this country and he also worked, with Leon Trotzsky in Detroit and Chicago. He met Nikolai Lenine in the Ka.st. He said Lenine formerly worked in a foundry in Buf falo or Rochester, N. Y. Ilolnhevikl Principles Explained. "The principles of the Bolsheviki are simply those of Socialism as expounded by Karl Marx," said Mr. Wick. "Leib knecht in Germany is of the same faith. But Leibknecht is called pro-ally in his own country and the Bolsheviki are de nominated pro-German. Such a classi fication simply proceeds from ignor ance. 'The only parallel in history to the present rule of the Bolsheviki in Rus sia is the Paris Commune, when the Communists controlled -Paris for two month.:... ..... ..... . -v - "The Bolsheviki have everything in their hands now. They will rule in Russia. The only possible way they can be crushed is for peace to be made between Germany and the allies and for them to unite against Russia, much the same procedure that followed the rule of the Commune in Paris. "While it is true the Bolsheviki ap pear to control only Petrograd as yet, it must be remembered that Petrograd Is Russia, Just as Paris is France. Revolutionists Not I. XV. W. "It is unsound to say that the Bol sheviki, founded on the economic prin ciples of Karl Marx, a German, are pro-German, because Marx was exiled from Germany and made a fugitive in all Kurope. He at length completed his work in London, and it was due more to him than to any other one man, probably, that England was dissuaded from joining with the Confederacy against the North in our Civil War. "With Trotzsky, Lenine and Madame Kollonty as leaders, the latest Russian revolution is in safe hands. The Bol sheviki should not be confused with the I. W. W. group. Neither of the three mentioned are of that cult, which is more the syndicalist movement. Neither Madame Kollonty nor the others are in sympathy with the I. W. W. "Peace in Europe alone, and the agreement of the warring nations to make war on the Bolsheviki, appears to me to be the only way they can be unseated." Phone your want ads to The Ore gonian.

Each of 205 Stars Accounts tor Grad uate or Student of School Now Serving His Country. High above the stage In the Wash ington High School auditorium, sharing- the place of honor with the Stars and Stripes, hangs one of the school's proudest possessions. It is a gigantic service flag, a monument to graduates and students who are with the colors. The flag was presented to the school by the Uirls- League of Washington High School. The service flag and the national ensign are of the same size, nine feet wide and 18 feet long. The school's patriotism is exemplified in the galaxy of stars contained in the white field within the red border. Bach of the 205 stars accounts for a former Washington High School stu dent who is now serving his country. Space for more stars is allotted, and they will be added as enlistments occur. . Washington High School has lost a great many boys who were leaders in school activities. Last season's foot ball stars, who were being counted upon to make a good showing tor Washington this year, are nearly all in uniform. The school, however, cheerfully accepts defeats In sports in the knowledge that its war service rec ord is unbeaten. Public Library Notes. A man, with "Mr. Britling Sees It Through" under his arm sauntered up to the entrance of the branch library. His watch told him that it still lacked the hour of opening, but, with the cheerful optimism of the public that a branch library may be open any hour of the day or night, he cautiously tried the door. It gave to his hand and, optimism for once rewarded, he stepped in. But just inside he stopped, puzzled. The scene before him was not one that fitted into his ideas of library at mosphere, particularly at that time of day. Around several tables boys and girls were clustered, each one bent eag erly over a small drawer of cards. Some of them were turning over the cards, puckers of concentration on their brows; some kept only one eye on a special card and the other on a paper on which they were writing, tongues In cheeks with the effort of faithful transcription; others were waving hands in air for help. The librarian, instead of being in her proper place be hind the desk, ready to "stamp off Mr. Britling, was hurrying from one child to the other, encouraging, answering and rebuking: "Good, that's fine. Kow, see If you can find the book on the shelves. "What are you looking for, Mary? Sel ma Lagerdorf? In the Ss? Now, think for a minute. If you were looking up George Washington, would you look for 'George' or "Washington 7" " "Jimmy, you know you waste your time when you don't watch your guide cards. Does 'Defoe' come before or after "Daskam"?" "Yes, Clifford, It's very nice that you know that Dickens wrote David Copper field, but we want to see if you could find the author from the catalogue if you didn't know." - Just then she caught sight of the man at the door and hurried up to him. "We are having a class from the school," she explained. "It is not quite 2 o'clock yet. Won't you sit down and wait?" A girl skipped up, waving a book in one hand and her paper in the other. "I've found it," she announced excited ly, "see, the very same number that was on the card!" A few minutes later the youngsters formed two lines with" a practiced air and marched out the door, one boy lag ging to plead: "Say, Miss , won't you save this book, so I can get it after school? I bet It's swell." "Well." the man commented, "the kids have it some different from when I went to school. We had to sit still on hard benches and dig things out the best we could." a At each of the 16 branch libraries of Portland these classes from the sixth, seventh and eighth grades have been assembling during the past few weeks to be Initiated into the mysteries of the card, catalogue. They learn to ascer tain whether the library has on Its shelves a book of certain, title, how. many it has of the works of a certain author, and what material it has in books or pamphlets on a given subject. They learn, too, how to find these books readily on the shelves from the cata logue number. It is only during the past year that the branch libraries have been equipped with their own catalogues. With their help the library patrons are coming to feel more and more at home and to be Independent users of the books. The University Park branch library has moved into roomier and more pleas ant quarters at 800 Lombard street, near the Portsmouth corner. .

As will be. seen by. the official letter herein printed, any such awards as Grand Prizes, Gold Medals, etc., were based on other con siderations and not on Tone. It will be readily appreciated that, no mat ter what any subsequent Board of Directors may have decided, the very fact that The Only Jury Which Heard and Tested All the Phono graphs at the Exposition Recommended That the Sonora Be Given the Highest Markings for Tone Quality, is sufficient and convincing evidence that any other opinion by a subse quent Board of Directors That Never Heard the Machines, must be considered irrelevant and immaterial and decidedly unmeritorious. - It might be of Interest also to call attention to the fact, that of the jurors whose letters we reprint herein the follpwing are professional musicians: Carl Hein, Director of N. Y. College of Music Adolph Rosenbecker, Conductor of Philharmonic Orchestra.

Gentlemen I Replying to your inquiry, I beg to inform, you that the only Jury which heard and tested all of the phonographs exhibited at the Panama-Pacific Inter national Exposition recommended that the Sonora Phonograph be given a viarking for tone quality higher than that given to any other phonograph or talking machine.
