THE MURMANSK RAILROAD.
T
J 1 10 Murmansk railroad which has been sVi.cd hv llicj
allied i'urccs at Arcliantfcl, rims from Kola, a hai-hor.
on (lie White Sea to Svanka,
road, east of I'ctrojjrad. For over I'OO miles it is m the
Arctic circle and it is the only railroad in the world so
far north. It is of great strategicimportance as it fur
nishes the ojjly ocean outlet to l'uro)ieaii 'Russia. It was
(icrmany's effort to secure Ihis railroad with the aid of
(itTinan-Fiuuish troops that occasioned intervention of
tlie allies.
The railroad was built in less than S months after
two years of war had convinced ihe Russian government
of Ihe necessity of an ice free port on ihe Arctic. It was
finished in December, 1917. It is practically an American
railroad as it was built by American methods and of
American materials brought by American ships. The
workmen were fed with food from America and American
system governed the enterprise. 100,000 men and 13,000
horses were employed in its const ruction.
On the map, it looks as if it would be an easy matter
for the Finns to flank the Murmansk road as it runs paral
lel to tho Finnish border for most of its length but the
character of the country makes it almost an impossibility.
It traverses a rough forested region where the only paths
are reindeer trailswith long stretches of marsh land
wilh occasional lakes. For hundreds of miles the marsh
belt between the railroad and the border is unbroken and
invasion by an army impossible even in winter, for the
climate is moderated by the (lulf stream that keeps the
White Sea free from ice, and there is more snow than ice.
Connecting with the Trans-Siberian road near Vologda,
Ihis railroad gives the allies two routes to move supplies
and troops into Russia. Connecting with the railroad are
the numerous waterways with the lingo steel barges util
ized by the Russians for transport, reaching all parts of
Russia, so that the allies have solved the difficult problem
of reaching tho heart of Russia.
THE TALKING WINDOWS.
Till' windows of our homes are eloquent these days.
Our human eyes wo call the "windows of the
soul" revealing to Ihe world the light or darkness of the
heart within. And today the windows of our houses
have changed from common frames of wood and glass to
soul-windows which reveal the heart of the homo behind
Hie panes.
Whether we walk down city avenues, or pass the farm
houses by the roadside, windows call out their messages
to us. Once, with their discreet curtains they hid front the
world all the secrets of the life within but now hoar
them whisper or shout their greeting to the human
brothers passing by. This window gives a single solemn,
triumphant cry "We have a son in Franco!" says its
Ki'cvii'i fl:o Tliw viiwliivV 11:1 o'--(iw'i ynvti ni'miil'v

door has a window which declares "We have'no son to
give, but see wo honor the flag, and we have sent a
(lauguier to uie Koti t ross.
on the corner announces that lather has a war-garden, and
that mother would scorn to waste a sera) of wheat or fat
or sugar. And ihe window of Tommy Drown's house says,
"My little boy has bought Ihrce Savings Stamps with ins
own monov."
Tho window in the cottage says, "I can help I've!
bought, a Libert v lmid." The - big -plate sjlass window,'
whispers, "Through me a little war-bride watches for
llmso let lei's frmu France."
Soinot imes the windows join in a perfect chorus
"We've sent a son to war; we save money; wo conserve
food; we've planted a war-garden; we've bought a bond;
we belong t" the Red Cross; wo buy Thrift Stamps; we've
helped Ihe V. M. C. A. and 'we pledge our lives, our for
tunes, anil our sacred honor' to this flag."
And sometimes from the window of a very ijuiot house
there comes a voice that is neither shout nor whisper
but rather a note of deep and solemn music a window
whose gold-starred flag speaks out "My son has paid the
last full measure of devotion!'"
Windows! The speaking windows of millioi's of
homes no longer curtained to conceal the hearts within,
but bright with flags that toll of love and loyalty gay
with poxiojs that pledge service and aid. and bravo with
stars that declare the eternal glory of our democracy t ho
spirit that sends sons of every homo groat and small,
to fight as brothers of the world for "Freedom, for all,
forever!"
