NEW WATER ROUTE POSSIBLE FROM RUSSIA TO ENGLAND Wireless Telegraphy Aids in Making Shipments Through Polar Seas When Ice Permits By Associated Press London, Nov. telegraphy has opened a polar sea route from central Russia to Great Britain. Wireless stations established by the Russian government in the arctic keep the vessels advised as to the channels freest from ice. Acting on their information, two large vessels chartered by a Siberian trading company have just arrived at Grimsby with cargoes from the Yenesel and Obi districts of Central Siberia, valued at $1,750,000.

The Obi and Yenesei are huge rivers with a great depth of water, taking steamers of any size. But It was not until lately that their navigation was put in practice. to the the trans Siberian railway by the Rusian gov. ernment for war supplies, there are 3,000,000 tons of wheat held up in Siberia, besides enormous quantities of other produce. If this can be got out, it will improve Russian exchange, which is now a serious problem among the allies.

-Advt. "WHEN DALAMS COME TRUE" PLEASES AUDIENCE HERE. A large crowd attended the Wichita Theater's first musical comedy of the season Tuesday night, "When Dreams Come True." The production was pleasing and satisfying throughout with a good supply of refreshing comtedy, pretty dancing and more than passable music. There is enough of a plot to afford some complicated situations and the play itself is quite interesting. The musical numbers that featured were "When Dreams Come True" a wistful air that found much favor; "Come Along to the Movies" and "There Ain't No Harm in What You Do." William Pruette, as Kean, James Crowley as Hercules Strong, Miss Edna Temple as Beth and Miss Connie Mac as Matilda were the leaders in a cast that made the most of its opportunities.

GRAIN IS COMING UP RAPIDLY Fine Pasturage is Afforded and Much Larger Acreage Is Indicated Here Cotton buyers estimate that every day of continued warm and fair weather means an addition of 2,000 bales to the cotton crop of Northwest Texas. Farmers in this mediate section are not so optimistic, declaring that there is no top crop as the boll weevils are getting it as fast as it comes on. This applies especially in the southern and eastern parts of the county where the weevil have left few bolls to mature. In the western and northern parts of the county the weevils have done little damage and no damage has been reported in the vicinity of Wichita. In some of these counties in the cotton acreage the yield there was only a allent, reduction is exceptionally heavy, and every day of weather such as now prevails is adding to the crop.

More ideal weather for wheat sow. ing could not be asked. Wheat al ready sown is coming up and there is fine pasturage already in mans fields. Many farmers are still breaking ground for wheat, and if the weather continues favorable twic weeks longer it is believed the wheat acreage will break all records in this section. THE OLIVES WE SELL.

In only one, little, isolated spot in the world, is the Queen Olive found. This territory lying adjacant to the town of Saville, Spain, is not more than 40 miles wide at its widest part and upon it rests the burden of providing all the Queen Olives consumed throughout Europe and America. Firm, sound, selected fruit, picked by hand, at that period of its growth most essential to the perfection ot its flavor is the first desideratum. The curing of the selected olive is a most delicate operation, its delightful properties do not appear under unskilled or hurried treatment. This brief outline suggests the character of the olives we are selling under our own brand.

They are most perfect forms of true olive culture, and in their uniformity, suavity, and blandness of flavor are prized by lovers of this delicious fruit from the sunny orchards of old Spain. We have them in bottles containing just enough for a luncheon for two persons or enough for a banquet of one hundred persons.

Jack G. Grissom That there i is no boy in Texas so poor who, having the ambition, the health and the will, cannot obtain a University education, is demonstrated by J.

G. Grissom, photograph in reproduction appears above. Mr. Grissom will receive this year two degrees from the University of Texas, the degree of Bachelor Arts and the degree of Master of Arts. He has earned himself every penny he has spent at the University.

But for the munificence of the state in supporting a University it would be impossible for poor boys to secure versity education. Handicap young Grissom, for instance, with a payment of $200 per year for tuition, and he would be unable to attend the University. The founders of the Republic pointed out this fact, that whereas the rich can send there sons and daughters anywhere, to the East, to Europe, or to the Orient, to secure an education, the children of the poor must depend upon state supported institutions of higher education. Therefore, the University of Texas has been truly called "the poor man's school." since above half of the students within its walls are either in whole or in part self-supporting, and fifty per cent of the remainder would be unable to attend a university that demanded tuition-fees. Any comprehensive scheme for rural school improvement in Texas must include a provision for the training of teachers to teach them.

Herein is a great service of the University of which institution alone furnishes above 400 well trained teachers to the common schools of the State. The University of Texas is the largest institution of learning in the South. It has graduated above 4,000 students, while the roll of its ex-students and graduates include the names of over 20,000 individuals, SAVING BABIES IS WORK OF SOCIETY MEETING IN ANNUAL CONVENTION car.

TOO MUCH AMBITION IS CAUSE Members Heal Differences But Lack of Tact and Judgment Leads to Undoing. By Associated Press November -The prorogation of the Russian Duma, according to accounts that have from members of the Octorbist and Progressive parties, was one of the severest tests which representative government in Russia has met since it came into being.

Only the sheer patriotism of the men who guided majority in that body prevented the prorogation from becoming a dis. At one time threatened precipilaser of the most, far reaching import. tate a general strike in all the faetories supplying the army, a strike which would have left the army practically helpless. following account of the crisis aster of the most far reaching import. ive group: "First of all, it is necessary to realize exactly what this Duma meant to the Russian people.

That people was enduring the heavy mental train of a long period of retreat, a retreat on a scale so gigantic that its effects were obvious even to those many hundred miles from the front. Wounded soldiers returning to the heart of the country brought to town and village stories that made the lack of ammunition more than an intellectual problem. The result was that the common people were clamorous for open criticism and some sort of control of the bureaucray which it felt was responsible, and the Duma seemed to all classs the only hope of such criticism and control. For a time it was of reused the to fall them. Then, under the stress of Warsaw, the government decided to and summon the Duma.

"The Duma, conscious that the nation for once was united behind it, astonished everyone by the thoroughness and frankness with which it attacked in a hundred speeches the problems that had been in the minds of all. It soon became evident that this was to be a different sort of a Duma from those which has preceded it. It was to be a parliament in fact as well as name, for the membership, always heretofore broken up into tiny political groups which made anything like concentrated action well nigh impossible, began to weld itself into two or three parties and a real majority party began to appear for the first time in history. "There are fourteen so-called parties represented in the Russian Duma, as follows: Extreme Right, Nationalists, Progressive Nationalists, Right Octobrists, Left Octobrists, Poles, Mohammedans, Peasants. Progressives, Cadets, Labor Members, Social Democrats, Social Democratic 'Minority' Party.

"While thus disunited, the Duma was weak.

They combined all the parties in the preceding list except the first three and the last two.

Then for the first time, the government was faced by a Duma with the power of making itself felt. The majority enjoyed by the Progressive bloc was absolutely overwhelming, "The next stage of the story was result of the peculiar character of the Russian politician. No sooner do any two Russians agree on anything than they sit down to draw up a platform or program, dealing not only with the matter in hand, but extending far afield to all the subjects upon which they are able to agree. So with this Progressive bloc. No sooner had the constituent parties agreed to unite for their work in the Duma than, in spite of the fact that every man was solely concentrated on doing what should be done for the winning of the war, they met to elaborate a serious program which should show all the subjects on which they were agreed.

They produced a program embodying about a dozen points, including such untimely matters as the reform of the Zemstovs municipal councils, a broadening of a ministry franchise, recognition of trade unions, and the establishment of a ministry not recruited from the ranks of officialdom. "It is obvious that the few points noted are enough to constitute the widest possible reformation in the Russian system of government. Leaders of the bloc have since declared that they did not mean this program as anything but a statement of 'ultimate and that for the moment they were content to concentrate their attention on matters of war legislation. But the publication of the program gave the conservative governclasses a tremendous and officialdom took the opportunity" to say what these are determined to do under cover of the national "Premier Goremykin, who was one of those greatly aroused by the reply to what he believed to be a threat against his official existence. It is said that when he laid the decree before his colleagues of the Cabinet, tha Czar's order on the table, and the thing was done, the enraged Duma being politely told that it had successfully accomplished its destiny.

"But for the patriotism of the members the result might have been chaos. For a time Milinkov threatened that all members of his party would resign from their positions on the committees formed for dealing with questions of munitions and other war matters. This would have been an incitement from above to a general and disastrous strike. Miliukov was fortunately made to see the danger it, and the leaders of every party, set themselves to preventing disturbance. "The story is not yet finished.
