AustraIia's Young Citizens.

The problem Of destitute children
was recently considered by the emigra-

described the work of the chiIdren's

Mr.. Fairbridge, who is headmaster at

tuition was started in 1909 by the
Child Emigration society, when a
party of destitute children was sent
out from England to Western Aus

grained paper by Japanese manufac-
turers. After the paper has been cut
to a pattern. the different parts are
sewn together and hemmed. and the
places where the buttonhOles are to

and at the same time very flexible.
After garment has been worn few
hours, it will interfere with the pers-

almost as much resistance as the thin
skins used for making gloves.

the impression that the commission

Reverting to the testimony at the

Mr.. Colver charged that J. Ogden Ar
mour of Armour & Co. had promised
the committee to explain a corporation
device which, the commissioner said,
the packers adopted to conceal their
ownership of the Chicago stock yards
and had failed to do it.
Their plan of successfully conceal
ing the ownership of corporations re-

asserted. Furthermore, it is abso-

WORLD PEACE is
SIGNED BY IS
Allies and Germany Put Treaty
Into Effect-U. S. Not Party

GERMAN PRISONERS GO HOME
Signatures Put to Historic Document
Fourteen Months After Armistice
Went Into Effect-ceremony oc-
ours in French Foreign Ministry.

Paris, Jan. 13.-The treaty of Yer
sailles, making peace between Ger
many and the Is ratifying allied pow
ers was put into effect at 4 10 Satur-
day afternoon, IA months after the
armistice went into effect, by the eX-
change of ratifications.
The entire ceremony, which took
place in the hall of the CLOCK ar the
French foreign ministry, was COM
pleted by 4:16.
Previously Baron Kurt Won Lersner,
head of the German mission, signed
the protocol of November L, providing
for reparation for the sinking of the
German warships at Scapa Flow and
TO issue the carrying out of the armis-
tice terms. The signing of this docu-
ment occurred in the office of the min
lister of foreign affairs. Won Lersner
affixed his signature to the protocol
at 4 100.
The United States was not party
to the exchange of notifications Of the
treaty.
Following the two ceremonies the
documents were handed to French Off
Gals for deposit in the archives. The
records will be printed on large sheets
of quarto parchment paper and the
seals of each plenipotentiary will be
affixed with the signatures.
NJ d'Marcilly VIII go to Berlin to
act as French charge d'affaireS there.
Another immediate result of the rati-
fication will be the repatriation of
German prisoners of war.
Peaceful relations between Germany
and the greater number of the nations
engaged in the great war with her are
established by the action at Paris.
The peace treaty now goes into eff
feet as between Germany and the
thirteen powers that have finally rat
ified it.
Great Britain was the first of the
five great powers represented in the
supreme council of the peace confer
ence to take such action, being fol-
lowed in succession by France, Italy
and Japan. The United States alone
of the "big five" has not ratified the
treaty.

Washington. Jan. 13.-Charges made
before a house war investigating com

cITY'S LURE STILL STRONG
clared TO Be Menace to Welfare
of the Race.

Every city in the United States is
decrying shortage of residences. In
fact, the cities of Europe. like the
cities of America, are suffering from
a house famine. There simply isn't
SHELTER in the cities for the great num-
bers of people crowding into them.
!, These people do not come from the
skies. They have not been born and
grown to manhood and womanhood
over night. They were in the world
yesterday, somewhere. Today they are
crowding into the cities. That they
are coming from the farms there isn't
the shadow of doubt. And thereby
hangs the. most terrible menace the
race has faced for centuries, declares
the Columbus CO., Dispatch.
Not only are cities becoming over
crowded, but in the small towns it is
the same The farmers are giving up
their places ON the farms and going to
the cities and towns and villages. The
chances are next years census will
show a tremendous decrease in the
rural population of this country; 1t is
bound TO do so, for there care more
people leaving the farms than are TAX
ing their places on the farms-and it
isn't necessary to explain the reason.
High wages in the cities, the worlds
war, the unrest, the uncertainty of
everything things are operating
to bring about condition of affairs
that is going to cause the world ire
mendous amount of trouble.
We hear great deal about improved
conditions upon the farm The tele-
phone. rural free delivery, good roads,
the automobile, improved machinery
and labor saving devices-these things
all go to make life upon the farm
more attractive. High prices for pro-
duce go to make farming more profit
able. Yet in the face of all of this the
people are leaving the farms and COM
Ing to the cities in such numbers that
shelter cannot be provided rapidly

In the final day of reckoning-well, we
have no desire to indulge in pessimism.
But who is going to raise the food for
the people of the world if the exodus
from the farms continues?
