According to a Tokyo newspaper,
the Japanese emigrants to South
America. especially to Brazil, are an
nually increasing. In 1908. the first
year in which emigration to Brazil was
encouraged. 700 Japanese left for that
country; in 1910, the number was 500;
in 1911. 1900; 1912. 5000; 1913, g.
600; 1914. 5000; 1917. 5000; and in
1918. 5000. This year the number
will. it is believed. exceed 5000. Up to
the end of January. 600 japanese had
left for Brazil, and on March 81, 700
more left Nagasaki. These facts must
have been overlooked by Senator Phe-
Ian. Is it possible that the United
States wfll permit Japanese emigra-
ton to Brazil to continue?

HEART AND BEAUTY
PROBLEMS
By MRS. ELIZABETH THOMPSON.

Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a high
school girl and do house work in or
der to buy my books and the clothes
I have. My father;had his leg cut off
five years ago and has had to work
as an elevator man ever since. Mother
works, but there, are five of us chill
dren and it is hard to scrape up
enough money for all of US.
At school I get discouraged because
my classmates, look down on me.
Sometimes I wonder If sit is worth
while TO go on and get an education.
Mother would like to have me go to
work, but father urges me; to finish
at school at all cost. He is not edu
Gated and he says that is the reason
he has to be an elevator man now.
I am at the end of my sophomore
year. Do you think it will be worth
while to- go on and finish when my
family needs the money might be
earning? ALYCIA.
It is hard at present to work and
should not get discouraged. If you
were to leave school now you would
probably never earn enough money
to be of much help to your parents.
But if you complete your course you
can start work in higher class posi-
t1oR and, because or your trained
mind, advance faster than girl with
out education. 1t is ridiculous to care
because your classmates look down
upon you. If they were old enough
to appreciate true worth they would
have a different attitude. Keep your
mind set firmly on a bright future
and YOU will be able to bear the dis
couragements of the present. 1t is
fine that you have tie fathers en-
courasement to back you. He knows
from experience and suffering how
valuable an education is

Certain statesmen and few editors
continue to worry about the possible
fate Of the Monroe doctrine following
the adoption of the League of Nations
covenant. The Monroe doctrine is
purely an American institution and
never has been recognized in interna--
tional law. Its maintenance rests
solely upon the United States and
there is little doubt that We shall be
able to continue to make good. The
less said about the Monroe doctrine the
better. 1t will be sufficient to act
when occasion shall arise. But we
might we'll give though: regarding the
course we shall pursue should Japan
put forth a similar doctrine. Pushed
TO the wall she may do this. Every
