Development Of Child
Told BY Wrist Zones

A horses teeth tell his age; a
child's wrist bones indicate. his. BY
means Of X-ray photographs n can
tell how old a child is or, more impor-
tant, whether he is properly developed
for his years.
AT one year of age a child has two
bones in the wrist; at five he has six;
at fourteen he has eight. Thus he has
what scientists call an anatomical age.
Girls are usually in advance of
boys in their anatomical development
at any given age, says a high Author
ity of the Iowa child welfare research
station in Hygeia, health magazine
published by the American Medical
association.
AS far as height and weight meas.
urements are concerned, girls are ap
p%roximately as heavy as boys for their
respective heights, but are shorter and
lighter at each age. They are more
variable in growth than boys.
The authority, a physician, has
drawn his conclusions from thousands
of repeated physical measurements on
nude children and his tables giving the
average weight of boys and girls for
each inch in height from every age
from five to nineteen are said to be
the most accurate tables for Ameri.

not in palaces, but lurking in corn

Odd Forms of "Money''
Employed in Africa

There are three modes of buying
and selling. The first is to exchange
article for article, direct. The second
is by using a useful medium of ex
change, which we will call currency.
The third is the Western method of
using a useless object in exchange
this we will call money.
In South Africa we get the natives
using cattle as currency, exchanging
cattle for goods and the same cattle
changing hands for other goods. More
usually, however, we get barter pure
and simple, ivory and useful objects
to buy beads, trinkets, wire and other
goods.
Farther north, in the T%ransvaal, we
get actual money, in the shape of
homemade wire, with a rough knob
on the end. Farther west, in the
Congo, We find H-shaped copper plates
used as money. On the Upper Congo
we find imitation swords serving the
purpose, while lower down on the
Stanley Falls we find the ak blade.
I'm many South African tribes we get
the hoe so used) In Sierra Leone we
get an amusing imitation knife blade;
one end is thin and twisted, the other
widening to two points. The BaSongo
and BaNkutu on the Congo use throw
ing knives.

Birthplace of Liberty

The so-called Tennis Court OATH"
derived its name from the tennis
courts at Versailles, where members
of the national assembly of France in
1898 met and took the solemn oath
that they would continue to meet for
the dispatch of business wherever
circumstances might require until the
constitution of the kingdom had been
established upon sound and solid
foundation. They met on the tennis
courts because admission to the hall
of the Menus Plaisirs" had been de

Parasites Are A Big

FARMERS WHO GROW
BEETS ASK SUPPORT
Urge Exclusive Use or Montana Sugar
AS Aid To Agricultural And
General Prosperity

A strong appeal to the people Of Mon
tana, as well as Of neighbor states to
the east. to use Montana-made sugar
exclusively il order that the grower
may receive a higher price for his beets
and that money now going out Of the
state may be kept in home circulation,
has been issued by the beet-growing
farmers in connection with the new crop
Of .sugar-the largest, incidentally. in
the states history-which is now being
manufactured. The text of the appeal,
which is in the form Of an open letter
signed by the executive committee Of
the Montana division of the Mountain
States Beet Growers Marketing assoc
ciation, T. S. Barrett, secretary, and
addressed to the public, is as follows;
The farmers growing sugar beets
have a direct interest in the sugar used
in Montana and neighhoring states to
the east.
The more beet sugar consumed in
this territory the higher is the Farm
er's proceeds for his sugar beet crop.
Having negotiated with The Great
Western Sugar Company a contract
fixing payment to The farmer accord
ing to the net price realized for the
sugar, the Montana Division of the
Mountain States Beet Growers Mark
citing Association desires to cooperate
with the Company to the end that the
exclusion Of cane sugar by 100 per
cent use of beet sugar in this favorable
sales area will increase the farmers
receipts for his work. And it is only
reasonable to expect that the people

insect pests have been in a great
measure controlled by these intro
duced parasites.
The alfalfa weevil has caused great
damage to this crop in certain re-
gions and continues to spread, but an
imported parasite is now spreading
at about the same rate and is keep
ing the damage within bounds in GER
tain places. This parasite was intro
duced into Colorado in 1918 and in
to Nevada in 1921, and is known to
have become well established in these
states.
The gypsy moth, which has done
great damage in New England and
adjoining states since it's introduction
is being fought with various means,
but parasites introduced from Europe
are said to have become a consider
able factor in this control work. In
the generally infested territory IN
sp%ectors report that the pest is less
abundant than for many years, and
entomologists of the department be-
lieve the parasites deserve most of
the credit, particularly il. the wooded
areas in the country districts.
In the last few years scientists
have spent much time in Japan
searching for parasites of the Japan
csc beetle, now a bad pest in sections
of New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and
Delaware, and some of these have
been found to survive in this region
where they are now increasing. Not
only are insect parasites being used
but also fungous and bacterial dis
eases of the pest which have found in
beetles native habitat.
From southern Europe the depart
ment has been introducing parasites
Of the European corn borer, an in
sect which has now spread from the
East to the eastern edge of the Corn
Belt. One of these parasites has been
found hardy enough to endure two
New England winters, one of them
unusually severe, and is thought to
become firmly established. Dur
ng the summer just past colonies of
t were started in western New York

Not UnIucky for All

The number thirteen hardly deserves
its black reputation, which it has had
ever since there were thirteen at the
Last Supper at which Our Lord was
betrayed. Hence the firm conviction
that if this number sit down to table
one of them will shortly afterwards
die.
The fact of the matter is, as astrolo-
gists tell us, that thirteen is only I'M
lucky to certain people. On others it
has no more potent effect than any
other number, while a few people de-
clare that it always brings them good
fortune.

Evening Worship 1880
Last Sunday morning the pastor
spoke to a congregation of about $50
in number. The subject was Educa-
ton, Morality, and Religion as neces-
sites of good government.
A plea was made for the public
school as the chief factor in the ma
tional life guarding it from illiteracy
and ignorance. Pointing out that an
ignorant nation had never been
known as a democracy nor had it
ever taken an important place among
the nations of the earth; also point
ing out that education without a
moral background was wholly vicious
and could not but end in the worst
type of in~dividualism and crime.
Strong emphasis was placed however
upon the fact that morality had no
authority apart from religion. That
the ten commandments were the
true authority or foundation for our
system of morality. Morality could
never find a sufficient foundation
on the experience of the race or the
will of a people because n could
be set aside and the other could be
changed. Therefore we must look to
the divinely given code.
Fellowship Supper
Last Friday a group of nineteen
men all members of the church,
gathered for a fellowship supper. A
group of Presbyterian young people
under the leadership of Mr.. Dan
Staples, the popular music instructor
of our school, formed a ten piece
orchestra and provided music for the
evening. During the meal the men
sang some of the better popular songs
both of the present and the past, Mr..
Frank Livingston leading the singing.
After supper the pastor told the pur-
pose of the meeting. He spoke Of
desiring the companionship of the
men of his church. If possible the
forming Of a churchman's club where
they could meet in a free and easy
fellowship, call each other "Bill"
and zoe" and talk over the many
of church work that are part {
and parcel of the life Of every church !
The idea received an enthusiastic
reception. Several speeches were
made promising support of such a
club and the date of next meeting {
was set for the third Wednesday in
December. Every man is to bring :
another. y

EDITORS NOTE-We welcome the
expression of opinion by our comrades
on the question of Shop Nuclei which
is to become one of the most impor-
tant means of building our party into
mass Communist party. We shall
gladly publish articles on this ques-
ton by members of the party pro-
vided the matter is treated in a con-
else and practical manner
Comrade Cooper seems to be in ia
vor of shop nuclei but he objects to
these nuclei becoming the basis of the
party organization. In this objection
Comrade Cooper is wrong 1t is the
understanding and intruction of the
Communist International that the
shop nucleus must become the basic
unit of the party. Why? For two
reasons mainly First, because it il
only thru the shop that a real mass
foundation can be created for. our
party Second, because the only way
to make shop nuclei (which Comrade
Cooper is in favor of real, living or
gans of the party is by giving these
nuclei all the functions and all the au
thority of a basic party unit
AS to the extent to which shop
nuclei will be able to function in the
open, we don't think we have any illus
ions about that Comrade Cooper is
perfectly right when he points out the
possible prosecutions from bosses and
foremen against our comrades of the
shop nuclei. But what of it? The
road to Communism is a road of sac
rifice and suffering, but that's no rea-
son for giving up the struggle for
Communism What we should have to
do in this case, as in all other cases of
persecution by our enemies, is to be
careful, practical and persevering. We
fight in the open as long and as much
as we can, and, when driven to it, con-
tinue underground This is true of
shop nuclei in the same sense as it is
true of our party as a whole.
The question of how to organize
parties, when and how the nuclei
should meet, and problems OF SINH
lar technical nature will no doubt crop
up at every turn of the game as soon
as we begin earnestly the building of
shop nuclei. But all these minor prob
lens. wilk;be taken care of in due time
on. the basis of the experience of the
entire I$fty Organization.
