education. In his play he gains bis
physical growth as-in has studies he
gains his mental growth.
The education offered by the street
is not always desirable, 4bak If we fur
nish our children no other play
grounds we must expect them to pat
ronize such as they md. Under the
proposed system competent teachers
of physical culture have volunteered
to furnish their services without COM
pensation at stated regular periods;
and the children of the, poor will be
given exactly the same instruction as
those who can afford it now pay for
their children to receive.
A practical illustration Of the play
ground was given last winter by the
free skating rink at Thirteenth avenue
East and London Road. This was
made possible by private enterprise
and generosity, but it should have re-
ceived public support. ANY man who
contributed money to that enterprise
could have received dividends at any
time by merely walking down to the
rink and seeing the happiness and en-
joyment it was bringing to many small
folks. 1t also saved much anxiety on
the part of many a mother who knew
her children were enjoying themselves
under conditions that were safe. More
than one boy has never learned the
essential art of swimming simply be-
cause his parents would not permit
him to learn how, on account OF their
fears of harm Detailing him during his
practicing, as conducted in the hap
hazard manner of boys without any
grown-up supervision, or assistance In
case of need. This argument alone
ought to- make the reason for the
supervised play ground clear to the
"grouchiest" tax payer.
Practical steps should be taken at
once to secure and improve what are
now unofficial play grounds, such as
the lots at Thirteenth avenue East
and London Road, Ninth avenue West
and Third street, and the different
suburban play grounds. Our city is
bound to grow and the opportunity to
acquire what, in sense, are now our
natural Fairgrounds probably will not
long continue. 1t is cheaper to buy
vacant lots than it will be to have to
buy improved property and tear build:
ings down to make play grounds
twenty years from now.

Unionism does not aim or strive to
put all men and workmen upon a COM
mon basis. 1t is merely a community
of interests whereby the inferior man
is given a chance to rise to the stand
ard set by the superior man, and both
are protected from the capitalistic
program which would be to discard
the more expensive man as soon as he
had impaired enough Of his knowledge
to make the cheaper man somewhere
near as valuable.

:~ Never in the history Of organized
labor has there been such a persis-
tent agitation for union label
goods. The demand for union-made
goods is being felt in all quarters.
The laborer is beginning to realize
his power, and like a child learn
ing to walk, is commencing to make
use of it.

All who have been students at Vas

tors AZ this prominent seat Of learil-
ing, ill who ave5shopess Of going to
this sor any other collesesat some fu-
ture time, and all fond mothers who
have daughters at any college, will be
greatly interested in the new musical
college play, Cupid Ea SIS Vassar," in
which Florence Gear Is appearing this
season and which is announced by its
producer, Manager jules Murry, to be
brought to the Lyceun1<sss on Tuesday
and Wednesday. Young women who
have spent their collegiate days at
this college viii recognize their ia
verite haunts IN the scenes given OF
the grounds and in the: rooms of the
inmates OF the Institution, and those
who have the promised hope of some
day arriving to the dignity of being
enrolled with the undergrad uates, will
do well to study the scenes Of the
play, as they win give them as clear
and: accurate view OF their future
college home as they could have by
visiting the grounds themselves. And
then the life OF the place is enacted
so wildly before the auditors, and the
little bits Of atmosphere here and
there found throughout the play will
be most interesting to the girl who
has intentions of making this her
college home. And to the young men
who have tender remembrances Of the
place cordial invitation Is given to
see at the play review OF their for
| mer days Of Irritation or more serious
love-making: To every one, young
and old, this newest of new plays will
come as welcome novelty.

It is the sacred duty of every
working man and woman to sup
port the trade union. movement
with all the power at their CON-

means of protection the working
class Of America would today be
helpless against the encroachment
of the growing power Of capitalist
corporations.

Tommy Burns, our distinguished fell

Women perhaps are sometimes
illogical, but they are ever to be found
in the van of any movement that
makes for the uplifting and better
ment of humanity, Their power OF
intuition Of what is going to happen
is often well-nigh uncdnny, so perhaps
there really is a hidden significance In
the fact that it is "Woman's Label

SHOULD WE ABANDON THE MON
ROE DOCTRINE?

At first glance to PROFOUND such a
question as this would seem to most
of us almost sacrilegious, or to
put it more mildly, rank hersy. All
questions have two sides, however, so
perhaps a consideration of the argu
ments in favor of the above PROPOSE
ton would not be entirely out of place
here.
In the first place, have we morally
the right to assume that we are the
elder brother to the whole Western
Hemisphere? Statistics or our South
American and West Indian trade
would rather indicate that we are
somewhat self-elected to the family
honors We claim as far as the affec-
tion being reciprocated is concerned.
The Latin races are entirely different
from us in every way, racially, So
cially, commercially, and as to tenn
permanent. They have found more
congenial friends in the European
nations. While our ignorance Of the
true state of the advancement of civil
ization in many South American coun-
tries is truly marvellous, still accord
ing to the code of nations our Latin
Republics are not always too scrupu-
lous in their dealings with other
nations; and for us to insist upon
putting ourselves into all their en-
broglios is perhaps fool-hardy.
Many well-informed critics-men
who know, because such matters are
their business-say that, from mill
tary standpoint, the only reason we
rank as a first-class power is because
we have never had our bluff called
They point out that conditions in war
fare have changed now. Preparedness
and striking fast and sure are what
now win wars. Pluck is a. factor, but
nobody can deny that even the Rus
SLAMS often showed that.
Undoubtedly the Monroe Doctrine
puts us in the position of going around
with a chip on our shoulder and is il
the part of wisdom for us to be seek
ing fight, all unrequested, when good
judges say about all we would get is
good licking?
Another feature is that we are
rather placed in a hypocritical posi-
tion We are busy over in Asiatic ter
ritory teaching the Filipinos the bless
ings of civilization, willy-nilly; an(

thinks so too, and perhaps may no
always respect our Keep Off tn
Grass signs.
In view of all this, why should we
a nation of peace-lovers, put ourselve
in this ridiculous light, where If w
are to maintain our position witt
credit to ourselves, we must get int
the game and purchase an expensive
armament and an expensive navy
when our good Offices at best are un
appreciated, if not resented? Un

KNEW SOMETHING OF ARGUMENT
Daughter Mustered lcCic to Answer
 Fathers Objections.

Isaac l.. Rice. the chess enthusiast, whose daughter is a devotee of the motorcycle. tells story about the way in which he was induced to buy the first machine for the young wom- an. Mrs. Rice and Miss Rice were in Europe at the time and arrangements had been made to ship a machine abroad, when man was thrown from motorcycle in New York and killed. The accident impressed MT. Rice so that. instead of sending the desired cycle. he forwarded a letter saying that he had decided not to buy one as he thought the sport was too danger ous. By the next mail came back a letter carrying inside newspaper clipping with the heading. Man Dies in Theater." With it was the mes sage: Now. father. do you intend to keep me from going to the theater because a man once died there?" Mir Rice decided that argument was use- less against such an antagonist.

Famous Irish fill.

From very early date until the sixth century the famous Hill of Tara was the chief meeting place of the Irish kings. The palace and royal banqueting hall were built on 1t, and visitors are still shown a pillar which is supposed to have been the ancient coronation stone. It was the site of a university, and the center of Irish learning, and place of gathering for the Druids and musicians Between the second and the fifth centuries it was the scene of triennial assemblies, and in 9S0 it witnessed a crushing de. feat of the Danes.

Fortunate " the man knew the secrets of his stronghold, and by opening man. hole was able to obtain suffi cient supply of air.
