around like a top, the boss's clothes
are ruined, and Charlie is fired on the
spot.

ventures -which Mr. Bay fills with his

FIVE HUNDRED REFUGEES
LIVE IN RAILROAD YARDS
RIGA, Itiva. Aug. 21. r. P.)
Over five hundred men, women, and
children are stranded as a result of
the fighting In Poland.
They are former soldiers, with their
wfvea and children, from the scattered
ranks of General Yudeniteh's White
Army. The refugees reached Riga,
on the way to their homes in Eastern
Poland and the Ukraine, when word
came that the frontiers of East Po
land were closed.
The train in which the refugees ar
rived was held up in the Risa yards
for several days, awaiting an oppor
tunity to proceed, but was finally tak
en over by the Lettish army for mili
tary transport, while its destitute pas
sengers were boused in nearby barracks.
PARIS, Aug. II. (IV p.) Italyi
"beyond the Alps"' to Xapoleon, lies
within the Alps to the France of to
day. . .
This Is not tho geographical per
version it seems to be. The rich val
leys beyond the mountains meant
wealth to Bonaparte the scenery and
the water power of the Alpine barrier
itself spells wealth to modern France.
The scenic value of the Alps has
long brought riches to France. The
growing exploitation of winter sports
in the mountains is adding- to the
summer income. And now, short of
coal, France is again turning to her
mountains for aid. America develop
ed her water power first and is now
beginning to exploit her scenery. Ir.
France the reverse is true.
The glacial rivers which abound in
the France Alps are being enslaved.
Torrents are being brought in huge
pipe lines down the sides of the moun
tains and even through tfcem by tun
nels until the traveller, amazed at tlte
streams of water spurting out of solid
rock, begins to wonder if Moses didn't
lead the children of Israel through
the French Alps instead of through
Spria.t .
Already in ITsines Glrod in t'gines
the French have the only steel mill
in Europe operated entirely by hydro
electric power. Factories for the
making of acetylene and other pro
ducts are scattered along the rivers.
Only a beginning has been made.
"White coal," as the French term
water power bids fair to solve the fuel
problem of France.
