THE UKRAINE AN EXAMPLE

THE Ukraine (South Russia), twice
as large as the British Isles, and
with pre-war population of 40. 600, 900,
is in the grip of famine, and the
Ukraine was once known as the "eran-
ary of Europe" In pre-war years this
territory produced 2O.OOO,OOO tons of
wheat, 100000 tons of potatoes; it
marketed in 1914, 27,OOo,0 0C0 head OF
horned cattle, 8, 100000 horses, and g.
100000 pigs; and it exported large
quantities of coal, iron, manganese,
and dairy products. On tract of land
near Odessa where before the war 80,
600 acres were sown to wheat, not a
sheaf is to be seen to-day; in another
section of $4,000 acres about 100 are
now under cultivation.
What is the answer? Bolshevism.
better known as communism. A report
from Odessa says that thousands of
Ukraine peasants are flocking to the
cities where they hope to exc out an ex-
stence until all danger of crop requis-
ton by the soviets has passed. The
only reason why the Ukraine held out
so long was because of rich stores of
grain accumulated in the days of pros
perity which were shielded from the
soviet commissars on the plea that they
must be used for seed. Those stores
have been exhausted. Nothing left to
plant.
Count Ilya Tolstoy, addressing the
Washington City Club recently, pre-
dicted this summer will mark the end
of the bolshevist regime In Russia; that
Lenine and Trotsky were at the end of
their rope and that only a few weeks
remain until their final and everlasting
fall from power. 1t is to be hoped the
prediction will be fulfilled. The two
super-marplots should have the Russian
wreckage as their funeral pyre. But
they will be canonized by the |. w. W.,
the Plumb Planners, the Fosters and
the Kate O'Hares of this country. Per-
haps the horrible example which Russia
has given to the United States will be
our payment for the aid we have rem
dered her.

ANTS CRAVE H0orCn
Also SkiIIfuI Grafters and Enjoy
Equal Suffrage.
rrof. William M. Wheeler, Who Has
Made Careful Study Of the Busy
Little Fellows, Gives Some
Interesting Information.

Cambridge, Mass.-Ants are like
people-they like booze, they enjoy
woman suffrage and many of them are
skillful grafters-is the observation Of
Prof. William Morton Wheeler, dean
of the Bussey museum at Harvard uni
versity. He has recently completed a
tour of the world for the purpose of
learning what he could about the busy
little fellows.
Professor Wheeler invaded many
lands, travelling through dangerous
parts of Africa, Asia ana other local
tiles. in his hunt for scientific knowl-
edge. He became acquainted with
about 10000 species of ants during his
travels.
"The similarity between these in
sects and humans is striking" he com
ments. '"Three fundamentals guide
their lives like ours; they are hunger,
sex, and fear.
''In most insect orders the female is
in CONTROL" he says, reminding that
more than one expert has predicted
this future for mankind.
'"rhe numerous grafters among the
ants remind us of our own kind. Large
number of ants-like humans-man-
age to get their living without work
ing for it."
Prof Wheeler found the boozelov-
ing ants in large numbers In the trop-
les. Whenever they get the chance,
he explains, they will climb all over
and into If possible. the wine, beer and
rum casks sent that area. They like
the stuff and they get helplessly in
toXicated on it, too, he declares.
Prof. Wheeler points to other val
liable lessons; ne says:
"If all individuals in the ant COL
onies were permitted to have families
without restraint the population would
soon outrun any possible food supply
The higher social ants have overcome
this difficulty by restricting reproduc-
ton, except when food is particularly
abundant.
1.-The societies of man and insect are
analogous, but the insect Is the SIM
pier. He is more mechanical in his
way of doing things. He sticks to rou-
tine. But by watching swarm of
ants at work or play, any careful OBJ
server will note many of the char
acteristics prominent with humans
prominent with ants also. He will see
manifestations of cooperation be-
tween some, of jealousy, of anger, Of
laziness and of dishonor on the part
of Others"

Peking.-The Russian soviet gov

recall all its troops from the Mongo-
lian border, according to a written
declaration made by A. Paikes, special
soviet envoy, who has been discussing
Mongolian affairs with Gen. l.. Yuan,

The statement, which was put in
writing at the request OF the Chinese
representative, asserts that the soviet
government has no aggressive inten-

troops there only at the insistence Of
the peoples revolutionary govern

NEW SCHOOL DEDICATED

Lewes was thronged with visitors
Tuesday to witness the dedication of
the new High School. Interested per-
sons came from all parts of the state,
and compliments were given the town
and its people, as well as the Delaware
School Auxiliary Association, which
made the fine new building possible.
The building is constructed of brick
and stone with timber for reinforcing
floor and roof construction. The size is
approximately 180x60 feet, with an
extension in the rear Of 53x66 feet.
The building is two stories high, the
only portion in the basement being the
heating and power plant. 1t contains 10
large class rooms, three small class
rooms, and five special rooms and has a
seating capacity of ATS in the regular
class rooms and can take care of 1875
additional in the special rooms, making
a total of 600. This can be increased
somewhat if the school should be run on
the platoon system and the auditorium
used as a regular classroom, which
would seat about $50. The main body
of the auditorium is furnished with
movable chairs which can be taken up
and stored under the stage and the
auditorium used as a Gymnasium. In
addition to the rooms mentioned there
is a girls and boys locker room. toilet
rooms, teachers and medical inspection
room, principals room and an outside
waiting room.
The Delaware School Auxiliary As
sociation appropriated $500, 900 of the
cost of the work and the Lewes Special
School District, $50, 900. The building
was constructed by the DUPONT Engi-
neering Co., the actual contract price
being $193, 029.4 This building was
DESIGNED by Guilbert & Betelle, archi-
tects, Newark, New Jersey.

Indians Will Fight
For New York Lands.
Legal Battle to be Begun Soon to Recover
Lands Claimed BY Indians.

A legal battle will be begun
soon to recover for the six Ma
tions" Of Indians more than 5000
900 acres of land in the heart Of
New York state, valued at more
than 100000.
Oneida Indians held q meeting
at Oneida, Wis.,, recently and ap.
pointed a committee of 20 Of their
number to raise money needed for
the fight and for further investi-
cation Of claims. Nelson Metoxen
is chairman and Mrs. Laura Cor
nelius Kellogg, secretary. The
committee will work with those
appointed from other tribes.
Mrs. Kellogg and Amos Baird
represented the Oneida Indians at
an investigation conducted in the
east. They claimed at the meet
ing that if the land is recovered it
will be divided among approx
mately $4,000 persons, descendants
of the six Nations"
The claim is based on the treaty
Of 1884, in which tie United
States govesnment coded 5000, 900
acres Of land to the Six Nations.
There was nothing in the treaty.
however, to prevent the Indians
from selling the land. In a short
time much Of it had been sold to
the State of New York and the
Indians moved North and West,
some into Canada, others into
Wisconsin and Oklahoma.
In 1894 the government amend
ed the treaty With a clause which
stated it was the original purpose
of the government to provide that
none of the land coded in the
treaty of 1884 could be sold by the
Six Nations, except as unit. In
dams, therefore, are attempting to
recover the land alleged to have
been illegally sold to Now York
state. j.
The Indians are being assisted
n their fight by e. A Everett,
chairman of the New York State
Indian commission. The fight
will be carried to the New York
state and federal government.

Eagle Feather playing great foot
ball for reservation IL in Cabada,
and brought him down to Marion.
After witnessing Eagle Feathers

he believed the star the greatest

football.
Hill, from the New York Iro-

after successful baseball career
and as a professional wrestler.
Walter Lingo has stated that Hill
and Busch are considered by Walter
Camp as the two best guards ever
turned ont by Carlisle. Hill was
used in the game recently against
the Bucyrus City team at Seccaium
park, when Thorpe tried out
strategic plays which we're later
used with success. According to
Lingo, there is nothing 10 football

Proclaimed by Governor Ramsey II Years
Ago.

When the first official Thanks
giving Day in Minnesota was cele-
brated on December 26, 1850, the
nine counties of the territory
counted only a few moro than 5000
people. St. Paul was a frontier
village with about 225 dwelling
houses, while St. Anthony could
boast only lis. But the good
cheer of the day did not hinge up
on numbers.
At the suggestion of group of
clergymen, Governor Ramsey is
sued q proclamation setting aside
one Of the Christmas holidays as a
day of thanksgiving. Among the
blessings which he enumerated
we're abundant crops; freedom
from the ravages of blast, hurri:
cane, drought, and epidemic dis
ease; and friendly relations be-
tween the pioneer and the red
man. The Governor solemnly in
vited thanksgiving: let US in
the public temple of religion, by
the 6reside and family altar, on
the prairie and in the forest, join
in the expression of our gratitude,
of our devotion to the God who
brought our fathers safely through
