Lecture On Russia Given At Beta Sigma Taking her topic from the cur rent study book 'The Grand Tour', Mrs. Ronald McEachern spoke to the members of 'XI Alpha Sigma Cnapter of beta Sigma Phi on '"'Russia", at a meeting held recently at the home of Mrs. James Carson, Bedford drive. Mrs. McEachern began her talk by giving important events in Russian history -- beginning with the founding of Moscow in 1147 to 1957 when the Russians placed the first satellite. into space. The speaker said 'In its his- tory, its size and its complex- ity, Russia is a world of its own. An American goes 'over' to England or France. An En- glishman goes 'up' to London or 'Across' to Paris but a visitor goes 'into' Russia." Commenting on the people of Russia, Mrs.. McEachern point- ed out that the inhabitants are a primitive people in the sense that they have not been sophisti- cated by cosmopolitan life. Like their land, their. thoughts and ideas are large, plain and open CLASS DISTINCTION In every Soviet industry there are half a dozen or more wage classifications. Each worker is classified: according to the de gree of skill his job requires Workers living in rural areas where the cost of living is low, generally receive lower pay Mrs. McEachern went on to _ tell of the way of life of the uneducated and unskilled. These people live in long w ooden bar racks, each family occupying a} cubicle of perhaps 10 square feet and separated from the next by a flimsy partition. Each cubicle has a bed, a chair or two and possibly a table At the end of the barrack are individual kerosene burners a table and a few shelves on Phi Meeting meeting, Mrs. ided in the John Beaupre.

The next meeting will be held at the home of Mrs. Percy Brad- ley, Grassmere avenue. At this meeting the final 'cultural pro- gram of the year will be pre- sented.

Those en- gaged in artistic and-or in- tellectual pursuits should have a generally good year, with every young Russian knows that| his entire future depends on his education. Anyone who stops his educa- tion at the end of the required eight years, knows that he will never rise above the ranks of the unskilled laborer. The 11- year graduate may rise another rung. The trade-school gradu ate rises further; but unless he possess a univeristy diploma he will never get to the top of the ladder The. majority of students in Soviet institutions of higher learning study sciences rather than the humanities. A senior practising physician averages $180 per month; Dut ae top scien tist can earn $1,000 to $1,500 per month. To conclude her lecture, Mrs McEachern told of the Russian enthusiasm for culture. Books are printed in great quantities, there are 385 permanent thea- tres and 32 opera companies. The ballet is the supreme ex- ample of Russian achievement in the performing arts, and its cathedral, Moscow's 30lshoi theatre, seldom has an empty seat. Russia has also given the! world some of its greatest mu- sicians.
