A great battle between the Poles
and the Russians is now taking place
for the possession Of Warsaw. the
capital of Poland. The Poles thus
far have held their own and the Boil
sheviki have been compelled to yield
ground already gained. The battle
extends over wide front. The re-
suit will be of tremendous import
ance and victory for the Poles would
endanger the hold of the Bolsheviki
on Russia.

The note of the Secretary of State.
Colby. to the Foreign Minister of
Italy in regard to the Russian situa-
ton is being commented on as a very
able and strong state document. The
paper outlines the attitude of the
United States and it makes it clear
that this country will in no case
recognize the Bolsheviki government,
since it has proved to be untrustwor-
thy and even confesses that it is under
no obligation to keep it's agreements.

For a long time Italy has been ant

to control the entrance to the Adri-

cession to Albania is significant. AL

The Panama Canal is now receiving

The Panama Canal is now receiving
nearly 100000 a month in tolls.
At present, the vessels Of all nations
are treated alike and pay the same
toll. This is in line with the modern
tendency to give all countries the
same privileges on bodies of water
that connect the high seas. 1t is
an essential part of the doctrine Of
freedom of the seas. Suggestions
have been made to change this and
give American boats a less toll. It
is to be hoped that such a policy may
not be adopted.

The occupation of the northern half
of the Island Of Saghalin, and Of
Nicolaievsk on the coast of Siberia,
by Japan has led to a protest and
demand for the reasons. Japan MAIN
tains that the occupation is necessary
and for her own defense against Rus
sian influence. All the acts of Japan
are watched with care, as an imper-
ialistic policy is feared.

Archbishop Mannix of Australia
had great reception from the Irish
in the U. S. He was even granted
the freedom of the city of New York
by Mayor Hylan. His way has not
been so clear, however, since and the
much-boasted landing in Ireland did
not take place. The English officials
took him from the vessel in which he
was going to Ireland, and have him in
easy confinement. He will not be
allowed to move about freely and
arouse the Irish people, as he had
hoped. ~

DIDN'T QUITE GET THE IDEA
Japanese Geisha Girl Meant Well, But
American Travelling Man
Remained Hungry.

Baron Rempei Kondo president Of
the Japan Mail Steamship company,
said at dinner that he gave recently
in New York:
"The japanese are very clean
people. | know an American traveller
who will testify to this.
"The traveller half famished made
his way one day into teahOuse in
remote japanese village. The geisha
girl ushered him into a spotless, airy
room, and brought him cup of UNI
sweetened tea. AS he could speak no
japanese, he tried to explain by signs
that he wanted full meal, but the
girl, though she smiled politely, failed
to understand.
80 the traveller thought he would
resort to another means He took out
his notebook and pencil, drew a fish
and an egg, and handed the drawing
to the geisha. This time she laughed
delightedly, clapping her hands and
ran from the room.
"The traveller was pleased. He
waited contentedly for his meal.
Five or ten minutes passed Then
the door opened, and two attendants
staggered in with portable bath,
brimful of hot water, and a cake Of
SOAP"

Don't look on the bright side of any
thing. Don't permit yourself to see
good in anyone. Don't have any char
ity for your erring brother or sister.
If you have any of the milk of human
kindness in your heart curdle it in
some way. Believe that all men and
women, too, are liars and the truth is
not in them. Find fault with your fell
low man. Say mean things about your
neghbor; envy her; hate her; seek
your own; scrap if you don't get it;
think evil; rejoice in iniquity; endure
nothing; believe nothing, and if you
are not completely miserable and un-
happy it is because you have not yet
quenched the last vital spark of love in
your being.

So much is said about the duties of
children that their rights are over
looked. Their duties are often strictly
enforced upon them, but their rights
frequently ignored. This is partly on
account of ignorance, but chiefly be-
cause of lack of thought. Most par
ents desire the highest good of their
children, and are willing to make any
reasonable sacrifice for them, but pay
little attention to their rights, if they
recognize them as their rights at all.
No one would deny to children their
right to such support and education as
their parents are able to give them.
But beyond this very general admis-
sion not many recognize any definite
obligation.

THE CHILD ETERNAL


81 heard their prayers and kissed their
sleepy eyes,
And tucked them all warm from foot
to head,
To wake again with mornings glad
sunrise
Then came where he lay dead.
On cold still mouth I laid my lips.
Asleep
He lay to wake the other side Gods
door.
But this one mine no more.
Those other children long to men have
grown
Strange, hurried men who give me
passing thought,
Then go their ways. No longer now
my own,
Without me they have wrought.

Tired childish feet turn home at even
tide,
