cANN1BALIsM IN HAITI.
Proofs Of It's Existence Found by
Dominican Constabulary.

Ralph 3. Murray, in the Outlook.
voodooism does not exist as q re-
ligion among the Dominicans, as it
does across the border in Haiti, neith-
er is 'canribaiism practiced, though In
Haiti 1t still prevails in the remote
regions.
Not a year ago at this writing a
native sergeant Of my company of
Dominican constabulary captured two
Haitians just after they had finished
eating = little Dominican girl. His
report OF the arrest stated that he
had found these two Haitians eating
meat on the thigh bones of little
girl. whose body was found nearby,
and who. as investigation proved, was
on her way to get water when they
had attacked and killed her.
The strange part of this event was
that they had with them q little Hal
tian girl Of about ten years, who,
upon kindly questioning, informed US
that she had often seen 'the men eat
meat" and complained that they had
never given her anything more sub,
stautia1" to eat than fruits and vege-
tables. She could not explain why she
travelled with them, where she had
come from or whore she was going.
which left us to suppose that she was
merely being tolerated AZ reserve in
case other food was not available.

Heirs to $10,00000O But Will Stay on Factory Jobs

And that all your life you'd car
ried your dinner pail back and forth
from shoe factory every day. wholly
dependent on your daily toll for a
living.
What would you do?
Why, you'd quit work and give
big farewell party for the gang at
the factory.
And you'd buy town house and
country house and a flock of motor
cars.
And you'd hire an army of servants
and get some saddle horses and settle
down to enjoy life. wouldn't you?
Well. now, take look at Patrick
Canning and his brother, James, both
expert shoemakers for the last %
years.
They've just inherited $4,000, ,O0O
from their great uncle. Maj. Edward
J. Curley, Kentucky distiller king who
died at Monte Carlo.
Are they going to enjoy life?
You bet! BY keeping on the job at
the shoe factory!
And their children are going to
stay al work, too!
I'D far rather make shoes than
lead millionaire's life," says Pat
rick. Let me tell you there's a lot
of satisfaction in doing a days work
and doing it WE'LL
Il think I may buy a flivver, and

MY house needs painting and ! may
use part of the $4,000 900 to do that.

I may take a vacation on her ac.
count, but it won't be for long.
And Irene, Canning's 2l-year-old
daughter-does she want to marry a
