Nygren has written an interesting telling of his evangelistic work the summer letting in Texas, Mississippi, Louisiana, Arkansas, Alabama, and Missoum. He writes: At one time we even stepped across the border line into Bandit Land, Old Mexico. From what saw Mexico we feel more grateful than ever that we are under the folds of dear Old Glory. common people in Mexico are worse off under the present government than they have ever been before. They are a people sinned against by their own government and that right at our very doors.

"This winter our work keeps us in the States of Illinois, Kansas and MichSgan; a greater part of the time will be spent in Chicago. Mr. Nygren encloses the following poem, written by himself: I BELIEVEOr. MY CONFESSION OF PRACTICAL FAITH By Evangelist David F. Nygren.

I believe in honest work, No one ever ought to shirk. Honest work and honest pay, This will brighten up life's way. I believe in prices fair, But for profiteers, and Best of goods prices right, Everybody treated "white."

Live for self we live in vain, Live for others, that is gain! I believe in cheerful smiles, They will shorten dreary miles: Onen-hearted laughter, too, Alps a lot when one is blue. 1 believe in words of praise now while in the race, Dead men's ears can hear no tales.

SAW POWDER VICTIM DEAD IN HER DREAMS One hour before Thomas Anselmi was killed in the powder explosion at the Hagley yards yesterday morning, Mrs. Theresa Solio, of Rockford, told her husband, John Solio, she had dreamed Anselmi was dead.

The Evening Journal begins today the publication of six articles by Arthur Ransome on the REAL in Russia.

They contain the meat of Ransome's new book, "Russia in 1919." "I have tried," says Ransome, "by means of a bald record of conversatons and things seen, to provide material for those who wish to know what is being done and thought in Moscow at the present time and demand something more to go upon than second-hand reports of wholly irrelevant atrocities committed by either side or the other, and often neither one side nor the other, but by irresponsible scoundrels who, in the natural turmoil the greatest convulsion in the his. tory of our civilization, escape temporarily here and there from any kind of Ransome Is not a Bolshevik.

He married a Russian woman and learned the Russian language Then he went to Russia, out among the peasants to get the folklore and fairy stories of the people.

RUSSIA IN 1919 ERE By Arthur LENIN COPYRIGHTED 1919, BY D.N HUCESCH- Our party of four newspaper correspondents, Norwegians, a Swede and myself, left Stockholm to go into Russia with the members of the Soviet government's legation It was headed by Vorovsky and Litvinox, who were going home after the breaking off of official relations by Sweden. We crossed by boat to Abo, grinding our way through the ice. and then traveled by rail to the Russion frontier. A squad of Finnish soldiers guarded the party. Arrived at the frontier close to Rieloostrov, we walked a few hundred yards' along the line and then turned into road deep in snow through a little bare woods, and SO down to the little wooden bridge over the narrow frozen stream that separetes Finland from Russia: The bridge, not twenty yards across, has a toll bar at each end.

two sentry bozes and two sentries. The Finnish soldiers lifted their toll bar, and the Finnish officers leading our escort walked solemnly to the middle of the bridge. Then the luggage was dumped there, while we stood watching the trembling of the rickety little bridge under the weight of our Belongings, for we were all taking in with us as much food as we decently could. AVe were none of us allowed on the bridge until an officer and a few men had come down to meet 15 on the Russian side. Only little Nina, Vorovsky's daughter, about 10 years old, chattering Swedish with the Finns.

At last. after a general shout of farewell.

the Finns turned and went back into their civilization, and tve went forward, into the new struggling civilization of Russia. Crossing that bridge we passed from 0110 philosophy to another. from our excreme of the class struggle to the other. from a dictatorship of the bourgeoise to the of the proletariat. The contrast was noticeable at once.

On the Finnish side of the frontier we had seen the grandotse new frontier station. much larger than could possibly be needed, but quite a good ex- MORE SALARIES FOR M. E. CLERGYMEN, NEW YORK, Jan. Rev.

There were Do porters, which are not surprising, because there is a barbed wire and an exeremely hostile sort of neutrality along the frontier, and traffic across hag practically ceased. In the buffet, which very cold, no food could be bought The long tables once laden with vaire and other zakuski were bare There was, however, a samovar, and we bought tea at 60 kopecks a glass and lumps of sugar at 2 roubles 50 each. We took our tea into the inner passport room, where I think a stove must have been burning the day before, and there mode some sort of a meal off some of Puntervald's Swedish hard bread. When at last the train caine to take us Petrograd end we found that the carriage w's unheated, somebody got out a mandolin and we kept ourselves warm by dancing At the some time I was sorry for the five children who were with us, knowing that a country simultaneously suffering war.

The Finland station, of course, WAS nearly deserted, but here there were four porters, who chorged 250 ronbles for shifting the luggage of the party from one end of the platform to the other. We ourselves loaded it into the motor lorry sent to meet us. There was a long time do wait while rooms were being allotted to us in the hotel.

I inquired for a meal, and found that no feed was to be had in the hotel, but they could supply hot water. Then, to get an appetite for sleep, I went out for a short walk. I went round to the Regina, which used to be one of the best hotels in the town, but those of us who had rooms there were compaining so bitterly that I d'd not stay with them, but went off along the Molka to the Nevsky and so back to my hotel. The streets, like the hotel. were only half lit, and hardly any of the houses had a lighted window.
