THE LITTLE GREY DOG
(Continued)

Benjamin went home crying afraid of the dark

arms. And now something strange happened. When
Benjamin. sobbng, started to tell the little dog of
this sorrow, the dog began to bark softly But it
was not ordinary bark, but speech, and Ben
Jamin understood very well the words 'DOn't cry
little friend, will take care of you and guard
you. And some day we will go to search for your
parents"
Benjamin so astonished at this that he stop
ped crying. "Whatw cried he, surprised "you can
speak, like human being?"
The dog shook his shaggy head. eyes when the
rich people act like wild beasts against the poor
people, animals must help them When human
being is very unhappy and forsaken, he understands
our language and knows that we wish him we'll r

A little comforted, the little boy obeyed and the

Theh came hard times for little Benjamin The

to carry water from the river in a heavy bucket,

WORKERS VERSUS CAPITALISTS
By WIN. KULKIS.

If the workers would unite in one great union
the working class will overcome the money grab
bling capitalists. But if we do not unite we shall
forever be victims of the capitalists greedy plans.
An elephant is one of the strongest of all animals
and yet he could crush his master with ease. We
we shall be twice strong as the elephant and we
could crush the capitalists very easily. We read
in the papers about capitalists having trouble with
the Mexican and Nicaraguan workers the oil
fields and lands. Because the capitalists see that
they viii lose their holdings in Mexico and Mica
ragua they send the workers of u. S. to fight our
fellow workers in Mexico and Nicaragua. But IL
we join our fellow workers and go after the capi-
talists they would be singing a different tune.
But remember, fellow workers, that capitalists
fear strong unions more than death. So why not
abolish capitalism forever1

OUR LETTER BOX
TEACHERS ARE PAID TO LIE

Dear Comrades: Last week while was in school
my teacher began to talk about religion. She said
that when anyone dies or gets killed it is the will
of God asked her if when anyone gets killed
is it the will of God? She said no, it is by care
lessness then said that before she said that when
anyone dies or gets killed it is the will Of God.
If every child in the public schools organizes and
reads the Young Comrade, he will understand that
the teachers are paid to lie.--VETE ZABLACKAS.

THE CHINESE PUZZLE

Many children who read about the victories of
the Chinese Revolutionary Army against their for
eign enemies and the tools who were supported by
foreign capitalists were greatly surprised and sadly
disappointed TO learn that there was split in the
KuOmintang (Peoples) Party.
But that should neither surprise nor disappoint
US Because in the Peoples Army we found both
workers and poor farmers as well as Chinese bosses
They all wanted to get rid of their foreign oppres-
sors first. Then the bosses wanted to form a boss
es' government. The workers and poor farmers
wanted to form Workers Government and get rid
of all Bosses both foreign and native. That is the
reason for the split in the Kuomintang Party.

This picture was drawn by a Philadelphia Young
Pioneer. His name is Sam Silver. This picture has
a story. 1t shows beautiful chair on which Mr..
Capitalism sits. The legs of the chair the poor
oppressed workers in native and colonial countries.
The picture shows that the Chinese workers are
tired of supporting Mr.. Capitalism and are walk
ing away This causes the chair to fall to side
and dsturbs Mr.. Capitalism. He is shown looking
down to see what is the matter That's the story
of the picture.

fifty years ago and 35 states had al
ready voted dry when national prohi-
bition was ratified by the legislatures
of 46 out of 4S states, and became
national law, so the matter was not
something that sprung up all of a
sudden.
After Mr.. Nielsen's talk the Young
Peoples Society had a little business
session. 1t is planned to have a pic
mic together with the Young Peoples
Society of West Denmark, Wis, some
time in the latter part of July and
midway between the two places. A
committee was selected to look after
that. The officers were also asked to
appoint committee to look into the
feasibility of erecting a new gym
nasium, building large enough to
play basket ball in, for other ath-
letics and in general to be used by
the Young Peoples Society for it's
meetings, entertainments, athletics,
and other affairs. 1t was argued that
the assembly hall is in need of ex-
tensive repairs and that it would hard
ly pay to repair it as it is not large
enough anyway.
Askov American. [volume] (Askov, Pine County, Minn.) 1914-current, 1927-05-12
GIVES A GOOD TALK
ON THE DRY QUESTION

Superintendent F. Clarey Nielsen
gave good talk before the Young
Peoples Society at the assembly hall
Sunday evening, mainly on prohibi-
ton. AS it was Mothers Day, Mr..
Nielsen dwelt briefly on the meaning
of the day and its Importance, stating
also that every day should be moth
er's day.
Fundamentally the youth of today
is the same as the youth generations
ago, said the speaker, but different
conditions bring different problems.
He spoke about the challenges to
youth of today-that youth is not so
interested in church-a Goddess youth,
drinking youth, criminal, lower
moral standards which takes in hon
esty, character, and promises. Those
are the challenges, he said; let the
youth show that he or she is as good
or better than those of bygone days.
Let youth meet those challenges and
live up to a noble life
Speaking about the many blessings
of prohibition and citing its aavant-
ages Mr. Nielsen said that while the
federal constitutional amendment is
not lived up to as it should be it has
made big strides toward a general
Improvement of conditions. Other
laws are broken, but that is no rea-
son for their repeal. 1t will natural
ly take one generation and perhaps
more before national prohibition is
respected and lived up to as it should
be. Any community can be rid of
moonshine if it wants to be rid of it.
No law is enforced any more than the
people want it enforced. Mr. Nielsen
also brought out the personal liberty
argument that the vets continually
cling to, and said that a mans per-
sonal liberty stops right there where
it interferes with his neighbor. If
a man started a skunk farm right up
to his neighbor's doors and windows
but yet on his own property it would
likely interfere with his neighbours
well-being and happiness and the
owner of the skunks could hardly
class that as his personal right and
liberty.
The speaker stated that Kansas was
the first state to vote dry-more than
25 years ago. Prohibition agitation
was started in this country more than

A SILVER LINING

Mrs. Knowall took a great interest
in the doings of all the neighbors.
1t was a great day for her when a
new arrival came to the house on the
opposite side of the street, and she
watched with interest as the furniture
was removed from the van and car
ried into the house.
WELL" said her husband, when he
returned from business in the evening,
"have you found out anything about
the social standing of the new folks
across the street,"
mot yet" was the reply. "They
have no car"
"No?"
Eyes, and they have no pom, no
monograph, no radio, and not even
a grand piano. I can't imagine what
they have got"
"Humph!" remarked friend hus-
band, sardonically. perhaps they
have bank account" The Forecast.

GYMNASTS
WILL SHOW IN ASKOV

The gymnasts of Midtown, Wis,
high schools boys and girls, under
the leadership of Chris Birkholm,
will give a public exhibition at the
D. B. S. hall in Askov on Saturday
evening, May IA. No admission will
be charged but a collection will be
taken to defray expenses. For num-
Der of years past the gymnasts of the
Midtown high school have taken one
or more such outings. The outings
are not for the purpose of earning
money but simply to demonstrate the
art and good physical exercise, and
for the benefit to be derived by the
gymnasts.
The instructor, Mr.. Birkholm, is
known to many Askov people, being
a brother Of Mrs. Carl Miller. He
has been physical instructor at the
Midtown school for about seven years
and has led many other gymnast
teams for years previous to that, hav-
ing also shown at Askov some years
ago.
The performance at Askov Saturday
evening is scheduled to start at 8
o'clock. In order to make the expen-
ses' as nominal as possible itis plan
