FIJIAN COMMUNISM
NATIVES OF THE ISLANDS HAVE
ALL THINGS IN COMMON.
Or. Basil Wilson, on the staff of Brit
ish Government Physicians, Talks
Interestingly of the People, Their
Habits and Customs. "

Accounts of a primitive msdnism
In actual present working are brought
by Dr. Basil Wilson, who is IN visit
to Montreal. DR.. Wilson cores direct
from Fiji, where he has lived for the
last seven years, and reports that the
natives of those islands still have all
things in common.
The land is held by the commu-
nifty" he told representative of the
Family Herald. land each man has his
little patch given him to work. Then,
whether his crop is big or little. he.
draws his share out of the common
produce. The chief gets a larger
share than the other members Of the
tribe, but each has a right to his
share. which is settled by tribal Gus
tom.
Nor is this the only form OF COM
munism at work. Not all the land is
held by the natives. They are able
to sell and have sold land to white
men and to natives of India, who re-
side In Fiji in large numbers. In such
cases the land is sold by the tribe
and the proceeds of the sale are di-
vided among the tribe as is the pro-
duce of their lands"
DR.. Wilson stated that the native
population OF the islands was about
10000, while there are $4,000 Indians
and four or five thousand whites. The
Indians have come over from India
under indenture to work the sugar
plantations. They are indentured for
five years and then are free to stay
in the islands or return, as they wish.
After spending five years as free men
In Fiji they are entitled to free pas
sage back to India, but comparatively
few avail themselves of it. They find
life so much easier In Fiji that they
prefer to stay. They go into garden
ing and small trading chiefly. Their
success in trading has given rise to
some feeling against them on the part
of the small white trader. but there
is no such problem as has arisen in
South Africa in this regard
DIR. Wilson is a member OF the far
flung line of the British government
eminent physicians who are charged
with the care of the natives and the
indentured Indians. They are also
allowed to practise privately among
the white and free Indian population.
There are at present only two private
physicians In Fiji; they live in Suva.
the capital. where the white popula-
ton is large. The period of service of
the government physicians is seven
years and DR.. Wilson is now on his
way home on a years furlough.

SOFT, WHITE HANDS
May Be Obtained in One Night.

For preserving the hands as we'll
as for preventing redness, roughness,
and chapping, and imparting that vel
yety softness and whiteness much de-
sired by women Cuticura Soap, assist
ed by Cuticura Ointment, is believed
to be superior to all other skin soaps.
For those who work in corrosive
liquids, or at occupations which tend
to injure the hands, it is invaluable.
Treatment-Bathe and soak the
hands on retiring in a strong, hot,
creamy lather of Cut.cura Soap Dry
and anoint freely with Cuticura Oint-
ment, and In severe cases spread the
CuticIra Ointment on thin pieces of
old linen or cotton. Wear during the
night old, loose gloves, or light ban
dage of cd cotton or linen to protect
the clothing from stain For red,
rough, and chapped hands, dry, ifs
sured, itching, feverish palms. and
shapeless nails with painful finger
ends, this treatment is most effective.

rushes past you, the trapeze seems not
to hold your weight, you fall as II
pushed, unprepared. from high stage
into the water at the baths. You look
overhead to see the parachute open.
the parachute cloth Is dropping in a
bundle to reach you, as it were, but
before it does your weight tells and
pulls the cords straight, the wind
catches under the cloth of your can

as it slowly rnfolds like a huge UNI
brella, and with slight tug as il a
fish were running away with your fish
Ing line you are supported like a
feather, and you experience a feeling
of satisfaction and safety. Down you
float to terra f1rma like a bird on
outstretched wings, and If it is a calm
day your descent Is almost vertical
at the rate of eight to ten feet a Sec
ond. When nearing the ground the
earth seems to rush up to meet you,

seemed a small box in an allotment
