'"THE Bp Complete IV MONDAY AI I At the request of a i I Bamberg is one of a v< |||k NOTE?It is ver; I THIEL if' RAILROAD PRODUCT OF WAR. Built to New Port of Russia on Far | Northern Waters. ^ A railroad farthest north, tapping the polar seas beyond Archr angel, its whole length running through a region of intense winter cold, is one of the most important h' constructive results of this destructive world war, says a statement just prepared by the National Geographic f society at Washington. Stimulated by an imperative war necessity for a foort nearer the west and the long | battle lin^s than Vladivostok, this l new railway has been driven north with the same fierce energy as that called forth by the dash for enemy positions. Finns, Lapps, Russians, alike, have , labored unremittingly to fasten a permanent way of steel between Petrograd and Semenowa, the latter city far beyond the arctic circle, on ' the northern shore of Finland, near Norwegian Nord Kap. Work upon ? the new line began a few months aff, ter the outbreak of the war, and it ; has been pushed feverishly as a means of over reaching the blockade ? * J ~~ J *Vin* <n/\lo +OC> Rnocio IL JSIltt tUlU BCtt luak wviavco ivuuuiw | In the west. - Tha undertaking required the building of more than 650 miles of railroad through an unfavorable country, in many places water-soaked, crossed by low banked rivers, filled with countless -lakes, large and email, and through a great -part of the year, frozen numb and buried under feet of snow. Construction has gone forward from the north andj |Tom the south, but there still remains a considerable middle section to be laid before the completion of the project. ? The arctic railroad runs east from Petrograd around Lake Ladoga, . where it turns poleward and whence I It holds a northern course until it teaches the harbor at its terminus : upon the polar sea. Here on the bleak Murman coast, deadened by months of cold and cheered by a *0 . ^briefest summer, an up-to-date har?|g bor eity is being built and the works of a great northernmost naval base y are being rapidly carried forward. ?0: ' Semenowa, Kola, and Alexandrowsk k':\ ?places that the world has never , t. |p{, thought to remember before?are M'now enjoying an arctic -war boom. fife-v;- - Semenowa was a small collection ifey. bf fishermen's huts before the war, g ? apparently too far out of the world V bver to form a part of it. Today, 00 large docks, harbor improvements and a splendidly improvised future lias surprised the place. Semenowa J'-/ tomorrow seems in the way of becoming a thriving much-mentioned 0 > port city. It may not be the warm water port that the Muscovite has * -A?JJlw fVl1<All ffll oil Deen Sieaun/ ucmauuiug tun/aeu Mru the/years of his empire, but, nevertheless, it is a port on ic? free water; for navigation finds an open way usually around Nord Kap for several score miles down the northern coast. ?' v**1 , . The building of this new fcort, giving Russia a city on open, western water, the construction of the new railroad into the heart of the north, and the building of a naval station here beyond the domination of any rival power, form, together, by far the most important constructive effort of the whole war to date. ? New Buttons. They come from Paris. And though they are of leather they are, strangely enough, washable. They are made of soft, white suede and will harmonize with the new leather trimmings. They come in several sizes, are not expensive, and may be used on shirtwaists, frocks, separate skirts and tailored suits. t~" > - - ' I* tf . A ? . . ? -l * < . ; i , v-.
