...messages of condolence: "Let not your deep, abounding grief be expressed in outward honors for Lenin's personality. Monuments to his name and sumptuous ceremonies-all that in his life he valued so little, found them all so tiresome. Remember how much poverty and lack of order yet exist in our country. If you want to honor Lenin's name build creches (foundling asylums), children's homes, schools, libraries, hospitals, sanatoria, and above all try so to act that by you his will may be done."

These special raiding squads are composed exclusively of "young detectives apparently chosen for their ability to look and act the college boy on a lark"; they trickle insidiously into the doomed "chop house", purchase several drinks and then ungratefully arrest...
...death of General Lee Christmas, the original hero of "Soldiers of Fortune," may be considered as marking the end of an epoch. The adventurous, romantic kind of warfare in which he won his fame may still exist in remote places, although even Mexico is amusing herself with airplanes and gas, but as a general thing it is gone forever,--and with it the chances for those Herculean exploits which have held readers enchanted from the days of Homer to the somewhat more recent ones of Richard Harding Davis...
