Among the non-Burmese tribes that

much of. The Banyak or Banyaugs,
for instance, will not marry unless
they are ordered to do so, and the

be dragged to the brides house. 1t is

THE BOISHENIKI.

The ghost of Bolshevism has been
stalking in and out 50 frequently of
late that we have become accustomed
to it's presence and while we do not
encourage its com partnership little at
tention is paid to the spectre. The
news that the Bolsheviki are active
ly engaged in propaganda work in
this city has been known to the
authorities for months and the lead
ers have been closely watched by the
local police and the federal authori-
ties. There should be no cause for
alarm over the literature distributed
through the mails over night, but
vigilance is necessary.
\ A study of the text of the litera-
ture shows beyond question that the
writer's are imbued with the genuine
Bolshevik spirit They resort to the
old argument that the war was
waged for the benefit of the capital
lists and that heartless governments
sent the flower of their manhood out
onto the battlefelds to be riddled
with shot and left to die. This would
be sufficient to bring tears were it
not known that the wounded soldiers
received all the attent ton possible and
that the greatest minds of medical
science co-operated to relieve pain
and to save injured lin BIS. AS for
being sent out onto the battlefield to
be riddled by shot, that may be part
Iy true. Wars are not fought in par
lors and the weapons are not floral
bouquets. If the war was waged for
| the sake of further enriching the
! capitalists why have said capitalists
howled at the taxes imposed on
| them?
Appeals to overthrow the govern
| ment by armed force are wasted. The
average American is too sensible to
| be carried away by arguments of this
nature Our system of government
! is not perfect but as between our
| system and the so-called system of
| the Bolshevil<i in Russia, for instance,
we prefer to remain benighted slaves
of the terrible and wicked capitalists.
While the Bolsheviki should be
! scorned they should not be ignored

Soldiers and the Beautiful.
yorkshire Observer.)

Our soldiers are bringing home
much new knowledge Of home life
and conditions with those of foreign
lands Many of the cities the SOL
der has known have been sadly
rava ged by the outpourngs of en-
gines of war. but his experiences are
more pleasant if the cities which he
has visited whilst out of the line "at
rest" though this word is quite a
misnomer for what is actually the lot
the soldier when he is not in the
trenches. Ypres once so glorious and
beautiful, with its cathedral and 9th
err churches and vondrous Cloth hall
is now a mass of runs. Shell bat
tered it is and war-worn. but in it's
torn bosom one may perceive many
signs Of former beauty. One OF these
is that indicating the efforts of the
municipal authorities of the great
wool metropolis of former days to
make their city beautiful. Bordering
the streets-though now with gaps in
their ranks-are the trees which were
formerly carefully tended in order to
counteract any tendency of the town
to become dull and sordid. Many a
British soldier has conceived q love
of foliage in traNersiDg the wonder
full avenue from POperinghe 20
Ypres, and that long stretch of tree
lined road from Fletie to Meteren,
where hundreds of lorries We're wont
to screen themselves under the trees
from the prying eyes of enemy aero
planes. Those who have served in
Italy, too. know the Italians love of
the city beautiful All the world ap-
preciates the glories of Rome, Venice,
Verona, Florence, etc. Many British
} soldiers have visited these places and
| have retained vivid impressions of
| what has been done to free CONNER
| ciaI and industrial life from dizziness
and unloveliness.
7 The demobitized soldier, returning
| to his own city, is struck by the al
| most entire absence of endeavor to
| clean and clear England's large towns
! and make them more beautiful to
look upon and live in. At home
commerctafism and industrialism
have had their way and wreaked
| their will with disastrous results.

During the week past nearly 5000
delegates have been in attendance at
the Irish Race Convention in Phila-

Cardinal Gibbons, was seconded by
Rev Norman Thomas, Presbyterian
minister, and Rev. james G. Myhew,

where the religious line was drawn
there. ...
Commenting on the convention, the

| It is not useful to discuss the

British government does not suit
Ireland and never has suited it
