Turf, scientifically grown and artist.
cally nurtured, is always appealing,
naturally so since it is natures finest
carpet. There is allurement about a
stretch of turf that compels the eye
and inspires fancy.
The arena whereon the lawn bow.
lers competed for the Colgate Cup was
set in pleasant environment of elm
and maple, buttressed by Towering
bush. A hedge of privet surrounded
the lawn, which was square of turf,
fiawless as a glofing green. say a hun.
dred feet by q hundred. This square
was divided by cords into Kinks upon
which five rival teams were constantly
bowling until the match ended.
At one end of the rink lies a white
ivory ball, the jack. The team which
has the greater number of balls in
proximity to the jack after each men,

like a boomerang.
AS mild and beneficial exercise
the game has undoubted merits. Re-

that he is pretty stiff after his first
experience of the sport. For men

Better Than Golf"
Compared to golf, the writer would
say that lawn bowls has several
marked advantages. First Of all, the
exercise is less violent and involves
no strain of clambering in and out of
sand traps and other hazards. 1t is
much less trying upon the nerves. A
good lawn bowler's game is not sub.
ject to those changes which so affiict
golfers. He knows pretty much what
he will do and then inevitably does.

Nationalist
Spike Mud Guns
Of ImgeriaIistS

SHANGHAI, April Elm a Joint
manifesto issued today by the Com
munist Party of China and by the
Koumintang, signed by Chen Tu-shou
for the former and by Wang Ching
wei for the latter, the people were
warned not to believe the lying pro-
paganda of the imperialist press which
represented the Communists as seek
ing to Immediately set up a prole-
tartan dictatorship on the lines of the
government of the U. s. S. R.
The manifesto strikes a deadly blow
at the policy of the imperialists to
divide the ranks Of the revolutionary
forces into Communists and anti-Com-
munists thus giving the enemies of
Chinese freedom another opportunity
to step in and fasten the shackles on
China's limbs while her forces were
fighting among themselves.
Broad Alliance Needed.
China being an oppressed nation,
the manifesto declares, therefore in
China there is need of an alliance of
the non-possessing classes with all
other classes in the revolutionary
struggle. Judging by the recent ten
denotes of the Chinese revolution the
question of rule by the working class
will not arise at present or in the
near future. What China needs now
is a democratic government by all
the classes that have been suffering
at the hands Of the counter-revclution
aries and imperialists."
Endorses Koumintang.
The manifesto expressly states
that the Communist Party endorses
the Koumintang statement and will
not attempt to take the concessions
by force. 1t says that the imperialist
enemies of the revolution in Shaug-
hal are deliberately spreading runners
about the intentions of the labor
masses to lead an armed attack upon
the concessions which are fabricated
falsehoods. Any split between the
parties now, the manifesto says, would
be playing into the hands Of the mill
tarists and imperialists, which are de-
liberately trying to create a schism.

for instance, will never have to wage
the battle for the right to vote. Suf-
frage will be given them as a mat
ter Of course by the Kuomintang ma
tional constitution which was drafted
by DIR. Sun Yat-sen. Neither will
women have to fight for property
rights in China, nor for the right Of
guardianship of their children, nor
for fair and decent marital laws.
Marriage and divorce will not work
greater hardship for women than for
men in the new China. Citizenship,
suffrage, property rights, social
rights, for men and for women, are
as much a part Of the fundamental
revolutionary program in China as
is the unhampered sovereignty of
China in its relations with the
world"
In speaking Of the specific plans
for the new women's institute Mad
anne Sun explained that its purpose
would be intensive training for a Sc
lected group in the political and So
cial background of present day China,
and in the principles and technique
of the Kuomintang. China must have
women leaders in great numbers.
The school begins on a small scale,
only one hundred students. But, ex-
planned Madame Sun, there will be
another hundred, and another, and
another hundred. 1t is in this way
that freedom for Chinese women
must be gained. In China, it will not
be battle against outworn man.

no sex. The task of China's new
women is to reach their sisters and
make them open their eyes upon a
