The sun was getting hotter and

was padding his canoe down the
river on his trip. I'm awful hot. I
think we'd better go ashore awhile
Anyway. I'd like to take some pic
lures and 1 want to do some target
shooting after we finish eating"
Tom Rixon, the older boy with
him, thought it a fine idea. espe-
cially the part about eating. So they
had their lunch and then Ted put
on some clothes he could hike around
in and went exploring while Tom
took a nap. Then they started away
again, Ted padding more slowly
than he had in the morning. He
was beginning to think a canoe trip
was hard work. But wait till I tell
everybody about it, he thought, to
make himself feel better, and went
on padding.

When she had left the fourth one In

some little time. Farmer Browns Boy
had about decided to go back home,

maple tree up by the house. This time
she wasn't gone long. When she re-
turned there was no baby In her
mouth. She hurried up into her new
home and disappeared.
'It must be that she went back this

Christmas Charity

Charity is a great and profitable industry in the
United States and in this pre-holiday period it
shines in all its sickly splendor. r
s'The Good Fellows Clubs" the Kiwanis, the
Rotary, the Elks and the humber organizations of
the babbittry, fill column after column Of news
paper space with descriptions of their activities
in behalf of the ''ziddes,' the lumpenproetarat is
discovered to have hitherto unseen virtues, the
salvation army makes hay while the Christmas sun
shines, the newsboys become the pets of society
dames=-while the canny shopkeepers hoist the
prices of everything that goes to make holiday in
America. t
The cub reporters the capitalist press vie with
one another in unearthing the most heartrending
cases of poverty, puffy politicians have their pic
lures taken handing out turkey and cranberries
the gospel sharks pull out the tremolo stops and
tell of the poor we have always with u.s. the child
labor exploiters are suffused with pleasant glow
as they write check for charity and the down
and-outers on the skid road collect the price of
several square meals while the salyationists look
on with jealous eye.
Yes, this is great season and so accustomed are
the American masses to being fed with bunk that
even tho the curtain is pulled aside for few days,
revealing the fostering sore of poverty at the root
Of the social organism little attention is paid to
its cause except by Communists.
The nauseating hypocrisy of life in the United
States under capitalism, the steady stream of
from thousand different organiza-
lions by means of which capitalism maintains its
control of the mass mentality, is more apparent
than ever during the pre-holiday period.
There is a veritable orgy of sentimentality, al
wallowing in good deeds, a clammy christian
charity that enveops everything in its Shiny fog.
''Peace on earth, good will to men," as long as
they ask and accept charity but make no demands.

British Imperialism and Ireland

The Free State government of Ireland has just
discovered what every revolutionist knew long
time ago-that its betrayal of the Irish nationalist
struggle would create the illusion of freedom suf
iciently to allow the movement to be demoralized
and crushed and that when this was accomplished
British imperialism would make known to the
world that Ireland was dependency as she has
been for $50 years-a dependency so necessary to
the safety of British Imperialism that even repre-
sentation in the league of nations would be denied
her.
The Cosgrave gang has posed as regular gov
assumed airs entirely out of keeping
With its role of puppet, but it has found that
it is regarded by the imperialists to whom it sold
the Irish masses, as On the same level with the
Egyptian ofhcialdom-coloni satraps of the en-
pire.

ment's abandonment of the fight for national in

them after they had baptized the soil of Ireland

The capitalists Of the Atlantic coast want more
battleshps and greater range for their guns that
British workers can be slaughtered more efficiently.
The capitalists Of the Pacific coast want more
battleships and greater gun range that Japanese
workers can be slaughtered more efficiently.
Together, they join in demanding more military
and naval equipment of every kind so that workers
everywhere can be slaughtered with more efficiency.
Why do these enemies of the American working
class and their Instruments in Washington-the
laborhating COolidge-Dawes administration that
takes office March 4--worry so much about war?
Because their policy of grabbing everything in
sight drives straight towards war and they know
it. They are frightened to death at the prospect
that the workers Of the United States may not care
to fight for their investments abroad so they talk
about defense of our institutions" Every war is
a war of defense, according to the capitalists who
do no fighting.
In way they are right. Imperialist wars are de-
tense of capitalism and all wars except the revou
tionary struggle of the working class and oppressed
colonial peoples are imperialist wars.
The intensive propaganda of the militarists
shows that these murderous conspirators are ac-
tualy preparing for war. Let the workers of the
United States not be Indifferent to the campaign

Reaction in the Balkans

The Bulgarian foreign minister, M. Kallov, is
out with plan for a united front of the little
Balkan nations against what he calls "Bolshevist
activities" His comment on this new union seems
to have been inspired by proposal for an alliance
coming from Jugo-Slavia.
The Communist Parties in the Balkan states
urge a Balkan federation as a means of overcom
ing the endless strife and rivalry between the little
countries in this cockpit of warning imperialist
interests and it seems to have remained for their
activity to force the rulers into sort of a
coalition. The proposed cooperation will I'M
questonably take the shape of uniform suppressive
measures against the Communists the abrogation
of all legal rights-in other words, united front
Of reaction that appears in many places in the
world today as the working class comes more and
more to understand that capitalism holds nothing
for it but continued and increasing misery.
Behind this new scheme of the rulers of the
feeble Balkan states are France, England and the
United States, preparing new thrust at Soviet
Russia. e.lsA
The Balkan rulers will do well to watch their
respective steps. Threats are one thing and a
costly war another, and it is extremely doubtful
if aggression against Soviet Russia with the Bal
kans as a base would succeed in doing anything
but establishing few more Soviet republics and a
Balkan federation of workers and peasants gov
ernments that would drive Imperialism from this
sector for all time to come.

STA or surrounding her and waiting
for their chance to strike death blow
to the young socialist republic. Soviet
Russia had to organize and maintain
a great Red Army. And Soviet Russia
had to start the industries which had
all but stopped. Here was Herculean
task of reconstruction, and the Rus
sian Communists worked increasingly
seven days a week as the whole world
now knows.
In those first four years following
the revolution, everybody In Soviet
Russia was more or less hungry, more
or less ragged. But the spirit OF the
Communists was impregnable, and it
spread to the masses of the workers
and peasants. Houses were rebuilt,
street cars were repaired; the fac
tories started; the transportation
system which had utterly broken down
now got into motion, and Soviet Rus
STA began to breathe again. And amid
all this struggle in the birth of the
republic, millions OF children had to
be cared for.

Mono. an organization for homeless

lions under the Soviets.
Comrade Kalinina, wife of the presi-

charge of this work, and surrounded
by faithful workers, she carries on the
great task Of organizing the children's

Kalinina is small, dark, sympathe-

Soviet Russia is the first country to
accept it and make it her own. Soviet
Russia wants to turn out human be-

$4,000 children in Moscow are being
cared for by the Mono, and Comrade
Kalinina is the spirit that guides the
work. She is aided by able comrades

munists. In fact, there is today a
great deal of important and splendid
work carried on by non-party workers
whose devotion and enthusiasm is
quite equal to that OF the Commun-
