the old German social-democrats used
to call them, issued the flaming call
for WAR Against War!"
That call soon resounded thruout
the length and breadth of war-torn
Europe. Dark stories began to go
the rounds about the effectiveness of
the revolutionary propaganda of the
youth; French regiments downing
arms and starting on the home march
with L'Internationale on their lips and
the Red Flag at their head, only to be
shot down for desertion by their less
revolutionary comrades.
That call marked the beginning of
the new International of the workers.
It marked the birth of the Communist
International. and of the Young Com
munist International.
The first week in September Of
every year was designated as the day
of the revolutionary youth, the day on
which the young workers mass their
strength in demonstrations against
exploitation, against capitalism and
its miseries; war, unemployment, pow
erty. Today under the leadership of
the Young Communist international,
the rebel youth of the world againg
gathers to celebrate the tenth ami
versary of International Youth Day.
In the United States, under the direc-
ton Of the Young Workers League,
the organization of the young Com
munists, demonstrations are being ar
ranged all over the country. Wher-
ever there is unit of the league,
large scale meetings are being ar
ranged, revolutionary slogans issued,
and the voice of protest OF the ex-
plotted youth is to be heard from
coast to coast.
On all sides the young workers Of
America are confronted with grave

WHY ONLY ONE STRAW HAITI

WHY ONLY ONE STRAW HAITI
Just because a man has only one
head Is no reason why he should have
only one straw hat. How many crayats
do you ownf How many shirts? How
many handkerchief? How many I'M
dersuits and pairs of socks? In COM
parison, one straw hat is a lonesome
and inadequate wardrobe for the we'll
dressed head. Moreover, it should be
borne in mind that no accessory q man
wears in summer is 80 exposed to
scorching sun, dust, bumps, showers
and the effects of Precipitation as your
straw hat.
You owe your head at least two and,
preferably, three straw hats this sum-
mer to meet the obligations of all oc-
casions. BY purchasing all of them at
the start of the sehson, you can alter
nate in wear and pro.rate the wear, so
that for every day you have fresh,
smart-looking hat that compliments
and. supplements the rest of your ap-
pearance. {
The indispensable three that every
well-dressed man should possess are
the "sennit" (coarse-woven) braid for
business and knockabout wears the
split (fine-woven) braid to accompany
the Tuxedo jacket of an evening and;
one of the many fancy-woven or body
hats, such as Milan, Panama, Balliluk,

the sports and purposes and places of
leisure.

cussion Of the so-called player-writer
resolution whicn WAS adopted by the
United States Lawn Tennis associa-
tion at its last annual meeting, the
place until January. 1926. The en-
forcenient date was set in fairness to
the players who had previously made
1924 and to give them the opportunity
TO make other arrangements as to their
livelihood in the event of their being
affected by this resolution.
In the criticism of the associations

BY the adoption of the player

principle Of amateur sports; that no
