Salonlki, Greece, November 20.
The very approach to Salonlki fore-
shadows the presence of war, The
long reach of the gulf of Salonlki
reveals a continuous procession of
ships, going and coming, and from
their standards trail the most un-
expected flags: Rumanian, Belgi-
an, Dutch, Russian, Egyptian—all
engaged in some way In victualling
the foreign troops concentrated on
the doorstep of the Balkans.
Huge trans-atlantlc liners, French
and British, laden with soldiers,
glide towards the harbor, whose en-
trance is guarded by a common tug
metamorphosed into a warship b*
armor and by a gun. The warship
at the gate of Greece's second port
flies the French, not the Greek flag.
Each entering vessel is hailed and
while not visited, is requested to
give an account of itself, before it
is permitted to pass the gateway In
the steel net marked by a line of
floats across the narrows.
Out in the roadsted lie French
and British warships and one Italian
man-o'-war. To defend the inter-
ests of Greece q, tiny Greek destroy-
er hugs the shore.
Many Nationalities Seen.
Not Port Said or Marseilles ever
knew such a polyglot, a babel or
such a kaleidscope of costumes as
appear on Salonlki quays. There
are French "poilue" in their sky-
blue; Alpine chasseurs with tam o'
shanters on the side of bead; French
colonial troops—Turcos, Senegalis,
baggy khaki bloomers and short
gaiters; French marines with red
pompons on their round caps;
French dragoons with horsetails in
their helmets. Now and then ap-
P$ar columns of Greek mountain ar-
tillery. Again straggling lines of
Greek infantry take the right of
way.
Bands of British Tommies, also
push their way down the crowded
Streets. British officers, canes in
hand, sweep the sidewalks from
side to side, driving the countless
itinerant venders into the street.
French salute Greeks; Greeks salute
French, but the British salute only
the British.
Turks Predominate.
Saloniki's population has been in-
creased by refugees from Serbia.
Macedonia and Thrace. Among the
permanent inhabitants, to judge
from the streets, Turks seem to
predominate.
When night falls the lights at the
mastheads and in the portholes of
the assembled ships spring out. At
the docks a huge French transport
unloads its cargo of human beings.
The shouts of men and the clank of
cranes comes across the water with-
out ceasing, throughout the night.
At night the cafes close. The lights
in the harbor go out, one by one.
Patrols of soldiers with bayonets set
French, Greek, British—march
up and down the pitch black side
streets in search of stragglers.

By strict economy Deaver man- *
aged to save several thousand (lol-!

the Marines, and when he was trans-
ferred to Seattle in 189!•, predicted
that this city would one day be the
metropolis of the great Northwest.
He wisely invested his savings in
Seattle realty when values were low.
He sold his holdings several times
and reinvested opportunely until his
wealth passed the six-figure mars.
