GAY LIFE IN THE CITY
CHANCE FOR FARM BOYS

It's about time to put the kibosh
on all this talk about keeping the
boys on the farm. Why should a
boy or young man want to stay on a
farm when he can go to the city,
and. after tramping through the
heat, or cold, or rain, or snow for
hve or six weeks. land a fine, fat

IDEAS or 4 FAMOUS TEACHER

The Chicago Herald, in recent
issue. speaking of the leader of re-
Iigious sect near that city, says:
Wilbur Glenn Voliva, Overseer oil
Zion. spoke in Zion Temple yester-
day on Modern Astronomy, Higher
Criticism and Evolution" to prove
that the earth is not round and that
IL does not revolve.
He cited the following points to
prove his contentious, and to show
that if the earth were round:
The water would all run of.
Australians would have to wear
hooks on their feet.
The Lord could not ascend and
descend from heaven with the earth
whirling eighteen miles a minute.
Cannon balls fired straight up
would not come down in the same
place.
Balloonists would come half way
around the world from their start
ing point.
voliva drew diagrams on black
board to illustrate his arguments.
The silly. foolish stuff ] was
taught and school children are
taught, that the world is a globe, be-
cause ships disappear and because
you can sail around it. is false" de-
clared Voliva.
mo one sails around the earth,
because it is not round. They just
travel in a circle on a fiat plane and
come back to where they started.

DRY
The earth is fiat and has four
corners, and its boundaries are fixed
by snow and ice. The earth rests on
water, and God never created more
than one sun and one moon. This
talk about millions of suns is all rot.
The moon has it's own light and the
sun has its own. The sun is only
5000 miles from the earth and not
92,000,000 miles away, as the inf
del teachings of modern science as
sert.
If a man wanted to light a
house. would he put his light a mile
away? 1t would be just as absurd
to put the sun such long way off.
Modern astronomy is delusion
from the devil.
IF the stars were bigger than the
earth they would smash it to smith

LONDON-The Duchess of Marl- borough made striking speech in behalf of sweatshop women workers at the opening of the headquarters of the League of Home Workers Benth- nal Green. today. Describing the hard lot of this underpaid class the Duch- ess said:
 They are a lonely, isolated class. rcscruted and hopeless womanhood, widows often with large families or the wives of casually employed or un- employed men forced into the labor market to save the family from ruin.
 The result of the under payment of these women who stint themselves to feed their children has caused the hearts of the wives and mothers of the nation to ache. It has become d national scandal, a national danger"

If Confucianism were abandoned parts of the country would lack a chief inspiration to the maintenance of their ancient civiliza- tion. In it's principles" says District officer Johnson of Wei hai-Wei in an article in the Nineteenth Century, China possesses a moral and spirit ual basis which will bear comparison with any possible substitute" Behind this restoration of the ancient official observance is the feeling that the moral patrimony of any individual can scarcely be sought for except in his native soil.
 The significance of the governments action is, however, mainly political. For China. the oldest and proudest nation in the world to surrender with out struggle the customs and be- liefs upon which 1t has been nourish- ed from an immemorial antiquity would have been an extraordinary thing; few close observers can have failed to forsee reaction of patriotic feeling in favor of Chinese ways and Chinese ideals. That such a reaction has come Is suggested in the reports of the growing tendency to discard European clothes and revert to the native custom.-Vancouver Sun.
