SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 27-sittine on sunny porches and steps and chew. ing sunflower seed constitute the principal duties of the militiamen who have supplanted inefficient police in many Russian cities, acording to Eiv. ind Erichsen, manager for a large European machinery concern in the newest of republics. These militia. men are without uniforms. wear any. thing from derby to a six penny can and are armed with anything from q rifle to rusty sword, Despite this inactivity there is no demand for the return of the police, he stated. The police are so hated, according to his information, that they are called "Pharcons'" because they are consid- cred so far behind the times that they should have lived in the days of the ancient Pharaohs of Egypt.

TINE BUILDINGS BE ERECTED
 HONOLULU
(By Associated Press)

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 27.-"Haw. allan Renaissance" one of the latest developments in architecture, is to distinguish a group of commercial buildings to be erected soon in Homo lulu. The buildings are being design ed by Louis Christian Mullgardt. San Francisco architect, who designed the Court of Ages" and other features of the Panama Pacific International exposition, held here in 1915.
 The first seven buildings in the scheme will be erected at a cost of $3,000,000 The new commercial cen ter will be focused at the intersec- tions of Bishop street, and the build ings already designed will face King, Merchant, Queen, Alakea and Bishop streets. They will be of varying heights as governed by commercial requirements.
 The intersection of Bishop and Merchant streets will be transformed into a circus, the cross line axis of which will have monument suitable to the history of the islands The street arcades forming the ground floor of each structure have been so designed that they may be used as promenades thereby obviating the necessity for awnings or marquees.
 There will be a system of indirect exterior illumination whereby the en- tire commercial center may be light ed up at moments notice for festal occasions. All of the structures will be fireproof throughout and faced with vitreous terra cotta in soft tones, appropriate to the natural setting of the islands.
 The Hawaiian Renaissance" will call for an architecture in keeping with the commercial requirements, climatic conditions and customs of the islands.

In recent article 1t was recon mended that women who wish to sew for the Red Cross should choose one or two kinds of garments and confine themselves to making them rather than try to make many different gar ments. Often women who are willin. to give time to sewing or knitting can not afford to buy all the materials they need. In this case they can arrange to do the work for other women who are willing to buy materials but haven't time for the work. In some places the Red Cross chapters furnish the goods and give out work to volun- teers who make up needed garments.
 Patterns for garments are all issued ly two sizes. medium and large. Ac- rording to Red Cross instructions. two medium-sized garments should be made to every one of large size. for American hospitals and no large sizes for French hospitals. The patterns are issued according to the requirements of the Red Cross by all the standard pattern companies.

 Each box of garments should con tain, inside the waterproof wrapping, typewriter inventory of its con tents following the name and address of the shipper.

Breaking New Areas.

The acreage plowed for crops in Canada this year when so many men are at the front in Europe will be greatly increased by bonus to farm laborers which will be paid by the Dominion governmental free home- stead. Even enlisted men who had good records as farmers have been returned to their farms in the effort to make the crop of 1917 a bumper An "the bread basket of Britain .' More field work by women will be done.
 Residence on. . farm as a "hand" will be accepted as residence duties un the homestead under the plan adopted and moreover the term re- quired has been reduced from three to practically two years only. The settlement of the region in Northern Ontario opened by the Canadian Government railways, as well as in the western provinces where the Grand Trunk Pacific is now running to the Pacific coast will be hastened by the new premium for farm labor.

The Ontario Department of Lands, Forests and Mines proposes to spend million dollars on community farm settlement project with the ob- ject of providing direct.r for the re- turned soldiers. The desirability for agricultural purposes of the land in the great clay belt of Temiskaming and Northern Ontario, was recog- nized some years ago when the On- tario Government undertook a huge road-building program. Immigra- tion flowed in far ahead of the con- struction work and would have con- tirued but for the war. !
 The scheme calls for the purchase of a block twelve miles square, with community buildings in the center in which the colonists may live until they feel themselves fitted to take up land in adjoining sections. At first they will earn living clearing the central 200 to 300 acres for demon stration farm which will be stocked by the government and from which the soldiers may purchase on easy terms. stock for their farms.

BRINGING UP THE CHILDREN

Children can easily be taught when very little to select and play with one thing at time, and to put it away in it's place before another is taken. Even in crowded apartment it is possible to fit up a box or shelf where each child can have place for his own treasures.
 Toys which develop the imagination are better than intricate mechanical toys and elaborately dressed dolls. Next to ball, the very best plaything is a set of blocks, which is capable of being transformed into anything desired, from a train of cars to a pigeon house. Give boy of five a hammer, some nails and a few pieces of wood and see what he can make-the results are often sur prising. Children love to create, and the toy which they have made themselves will give a more lasting pleasure than the usual elaborate plaything bought ready-made
 The occupations of grownups have great attraction for children. A few simple regular duties should be given them every day. Work is one of the greatest means of spiritual development, and the wisest of all teachers for little children. Frederick Froebel said that child's offer to help should never be re- fused. To be sure. the mother may at first find it far more of a hindrance than a help. but children of four ors five can learn to dress and undress them selves, wipe the dishes, dust the chairs, help make beds, carry small pieces of kindlng. empty scrap baskets water plants and help in many other ways.
 If the mothers spirit is right chil- dren will always love to help Children are little reflectors. and soon catch the spirit of cheerful. willing work. If they sec work done complainingly, what won der if they also begin to feel badly used when asked to perform some simple helpful service-and to look upon work as a disagreeabie hardship
