Just as Blismark became famous things named after him,Lenin is becoming more and more an advertising medium. A paper mill in Petrograd was re-opened recently and it was named "Lenin." The Petrograd harbor is frozen to the great distress of the importing and exporting institutions.Lenin must help.A new ice breaker built at the Baltic factory in Petrograd and named Lenin has done wonders breaking up the ice. There are also some food kitchens opened at Petrograd under the name of Lenin. It goes without saying that there are a number of articles bearing Lenin's picture as an advertising means. NO ARRESTS IN YEAR FOR INTOXICATION LONDON,Mar 30.-The city of Crewe which boasts of 45,000 inhabitants has established a record for itself.Not an arrest was made for drunkenness there during the last twelve months. Lighter and more expensive beer, as well as a curtailment in the number of hours the saloons may be open are given as the reasons for this sobriety.

SMOKE INSTRUCTOR GOES BANKRUPT LONDON — Nicholas Coundouris the man who taught England to smoke cigarettes, has been declared bankrupt. Coundouris is 88 and although born in Ionian Isles, has long been a naturalized American. Tall, erect, with flashing eyes and wearing a high fez and broad white beard, Coundouris is one of the most pictureque figures in London. He was the leader of a small group of near eastern merchants who in 1853 introduced cigarettes in London, and extensively in the United States. Formerly in possession of large tobacco interests in the near east, Coundouris experienced business difficulties and has been declared unable to meet his obligations. He still claims these possessions. YORBA LINDA YORGA LINDA, Man. 30. (Spl.) — The Woman's Club held an interesting meeting Tuesday afternoon at their club house.

Guests included, the honoree, Mrs. Kinsman, Mrs. M. A. Bridge, Mrs. Vance, Mrs. W. Mur HOPES BLASTED AS NAPOLEON RULES Abbe Sieyes was a powerful force in France before Napoleon became supreme ruler of that country. This clerical gentleman had drawn up many constitutions which the fires of revolution had burned. The career of Napoleon fascinated him. His brain and Napoleon's ability as a general would place the two of them in control of France. Then the abbe could push the general to one side. When Napoleon was in Egypt, Sieyes and several of his partisans were discussing politics. The abbe was silent while the discussion rambled on and on. He grew impatient and said finally: "Enough of Chatterboxes. Two things are needed, a head and a sword. He hoped to be the head and that Napoleon would be his sword. As it happened the two men worked together for a time, but when Napoleon had gotten all he needed from the abbe he threw the man to one side." The trifler should be eliminated from colleges and universities. The work of these institutions is far too important to be clogged and hindered by indolent pleasure seekers in their student bodies. ray, Miss Marsha Vernon, Mrs. Chas. Vernon, Mrs. A. W.

S. C. Experts declare that lowest bass voice in America is possessed by Howard Bridegroom, a senior in the University of Southern California. Bridegroom is the smallest man in the glee club. Among those who have tested his voice are L. E. Behymer and Armitage, both of whom declare it is the lowest voice they have ever heard. heretofore. A special meeting will be held next Monday at the hotel, at which time a report will be given by several committees, including the sanitary district committee. The question of incorporation, bobbed up unexpectedly at the meeting Monday, and several of the prominent citizens of Garden Grove, expressed their opposition to the proposed formation of sanitary district stating that in their view, incorporation was the only logical solution of our many perplexing problems, not the least of which is adequate sewerage.
