feveral Orman observation bal

Krenrh aviators. Lieutenant Fonck
returned to his camp and waited
thrce-quartera of an hour for the
Hermans to learn of that fact and

A new republic has been founded
In ;i corner of the world where one
would least have expected democ
racy to thrive. The boilding nf this
new republic is one of the national
dramas being staged In the world
war. It forms another chapter In
the volumes of history being mad"
and it may have a vital effect in the
ultimate outcome of the war.
The route across the Caucasus, bv
way of the Hlack sea port of liatum
and the Caspian port of Baku is one
of the essential links In the riennaft
dream of expansion toward t'fntral
Asia. It Is now widely admitted
that with Ragdad permanently In
the hands of the Ilritish, the object

the city of Bnkkani, capital of the
flourishing stale of the same name
To the south, Bokhara Is cut off
from Asia Minor by I'ersia, which
kingdom the Teutons do not feel
sure of controlling. This explains
the clause 'in the Brest-L,llovsk
treaty which called for the ceding
of part of the Caucasus to the Turks.
Germany was eager to have the
right of way definitely In the hands
of her vassals.
Russia consented, hut the plan
has nevertheless failed.
Form Temporary Government.
When the czar was overthrown
last year the t'aucasla provinces
organized a temporary government
In whlrh the authority wan equally
shared by the Georgians. Armenians
and Tartars, who constitute the ma
jority, of the population. There ap
pears to have been no disorder. The
army of the Grand Duke Nicholas,
which had waged a successful cam

fore, did not fall into anarchy. Many
regiments elected to remain with
the mountain people while others
returned peaceably to Great Russia.
I'nder K'rensky there was no talk
of secession. The Caucasus planned
to be one of the si'lf-governlntr
states In a federated union. Meveral
commissaries were chosen from
among the former members of the
iluma and the local functionaries. It
was supposed that the permanent
form of government would be de
cided when the constituent assembly
met In Moscow.
Revolution Alters Complexion.
The Bolshevikl revolution entirely
changed the complexion of things.
The Caucasus was willing; -to con
form to the ne v regime. Without
any bloodshed It abolished Its pro
visional administration and elected
a soviet composed of four Tartars,
three Georgians, three Armenians
and two Russians. The races acted
separately, their quota of repre
sentatives being agreed upon before,
hand. Tlflis was ttiosen as the cap
ital. A cabinet was formed, with M.
Gueguetrhkorl as president, minis
ter of foreign affairs and minister
of labor.
Had I,enlne and Trotzky treated
the Caucasus half wav decently
there seems little doubt that it
would have become one of the most
thorough-going Bolshevikl states In
Russia. But the surrender of the
districts of Batum. F.rivan and Kars
without a struggle when Germany
asked for them at Rrest-Litovsk was
too mucn for the pride of the mountaineers.

They will turn your delivery cost Into sales

will attract new business and retain old customers
removed to more remote territories.
They, will cement your present trade closer to
your business by prompt, on time service.
Small companies frequently associate Motor
Trucks with big business. It Is due to the Im
pression made by the large number nf trucks
used by big concerns. Yet one-half of the sales
of Service Motor Trucks are made to compara

If the smaller companies would pay the at
tention to the transportation cost sheets that the
lerg companies do, they cannot fail to see the
advantage of a Service Motor Truck.
Choose From The "Dominant Seven"
When you buy a truck you will, of course, choose from the "Pomlnant Seven" makes. In a
recent efficiency test by officials of the city of Chicago, Service Trucks easily won first place In
competition with the twelve other best known trucks In America, Including the "Ijomlnant Seven."
An order for seven five-ton Service Trucks was the result. The hard cold facts of this Iron-clad
efficiency test should Influence your choice of the Service Truck, which stands In the front rank of
the "l'ominant Seven."

IN FRANCE. June 22. Though the
American troops have repeatedly
made themselves extremely popular
I by their open-handed generosity to
the natives among whom they hap
, pen to be quartered, It has remained
(for an artillery regiment to dlstln-
guish Itself especially in thla re
, spect.
The unit was quartered for some
time In a little French town behind
; the front, an on the first evening
: found, almost dying from hunger,
, an 8-year-old boy whose mother!
I had been killed at Verdun. The
i boy had wandered aimlessly about
until fie reached this town.
He was unanimously adopted by
the regiment, fed to satiety and
! made the mascot and Idol of the
men. The time came, however, very
I recently, when the artillerymen had
I to leave for .front service. To take
the boy with them was out of the
'question. He had been given the
.nickname of "Pat" and Ihey had
! grown so attached to him that they
felt something must be done to as
sure his future.
I So the men raised 4wo thousand
franca with which "Pat" is to be
cared for In a home and given at
! least a rudimentary education. They
have gone on to the front, possibly
never will see the little town again;
I but the town, and Pat, will not soon
forget them.

Since the delivery of the contents

"If we ran Judge by the display on

An ordinance of May 2.1, 1917,1
