ASpirin COMBINATION
HE COULDN'T SLEEP,
STOMACH HURT SO
Back ached for years. Finally found
relief. Perfectly well now.

Friends of Mr.. Henry Remillard,
294 N. Dearborn ST., Bradley, Ill,
were recently surprised by his sud-
den return to good health. He ex-
plains it as follows:
For many years, I had chronic
indigestion, and for the last six
months I never knew what it was
to have a good nights sleep, my
stomach hurt so. I had gas and
bilious attacks whenever r tried to
eat, and my heart palpitated SO I
could hardly breathe. My kidneys
were weak, and I had terrible head
aches and pains in my back. I was
conStipated, felt tired and worn out
all the time, and was absolutely dis
couraged. But a new hope came
to me the day I started taking
Viuna. 1t promptly gave me the
help I needed, and today I can
hardly realize that I was ever so
sick. My stomach never gives me
a moment of trouble, and sound
sleep is surely a blessed relief. The
gas pains, biliousneSs, and short
ness of breath are all gone. I am
rid of the headaches and back
ache, and feeling splendid in every
way. I owe my health to Viuna,
and can never hope to praise it
enough"
.Viuna acts promptly on sluggish
bowels, lazy liver and weak kidneys 1t
purifies the blood, clears the skin, re-
stores appetite and digestion, and brings
new strength and energy to the whole
body. Take a bottle on trial Then II
you're not glad you tried Viuna, your
money win be refunded. 81 at druggists,

DRAMA
New Comedy at the Byom
Theatre Fails to Click

AN UNIMPORTANT comedy called
n "Skidding," written by Aurania
Rouverol, is now playing at the BIZ
lou Theatre. Announced as the WIN
ner of drama league contest IN
Pasadena, Cal, it's amateurish back
ground is constantly displaying itself
so the audience can never seem to
realize that they are viewing
legitimate production. While the cast
is quite capable and the direction
of more than ordinary ability, the pro-
duction just does not click.
The plot is the major weakness OF
the play. Concerning questions which
for the most part were burning issues
decade ago, the play at the very
outset prejudices the audience by the
age of it's theme. 1t tells of girl
who had to choose between married
life, which according to the prospec-
tive husband, means staying home
and taking care of the home, or on
the other hand, participating in poll
tics.
The play also tells how the family
of the girl who happens to live in
Idaho, have difficulty in keeping the
home fires burning. In other words,
to prevent skidding, thereby giving
rise to the title. The play points out
how the daughter comes home from
postgraduate work in political science
with desire to participate in politics,
while her father is local politician
and republican party candidate for
Judge running for reelection. The
rest of the family consists of two
married sisters, chatting under the
yoke of wedlock and various other
assorted relatives who all have their
complaints to add to the general dis
cord.
The cast includes Walter Abel, Burr
Caruth, Marguerite Churchill, Clara
Blandick and Louise Carter, who
for the most part give capable per-
formances.
The play is produced by Hyman
Adler and Marion Gering. 1t is
rumored that Miss Gering, who is re-
sponsible for the staging, was at one
time connected with the Meyerhold
Theatre in the Soviet Union. If so,
she evidently forgot great deal
since she arrived in this country.

SCHOOLS ORDER
Chill DREN NOT
TO MASS PICKET
Principal Fights Save
Union Committee
by a Worker Correspondent


WHEELING, w. Va, (By MaiD.-
Our public schools, supposedly a
place where our children are taught
and trained to fight lifes' battles and
struggles, but actually the breeding
place of obedient wage slaves, have
come out openly in the present strug-
gle of the striking miners to aid the
coal barons.
This was evident when Prof Albert
F. Meels, principal of the Lansing
public schools ordered the miners
children from a "Save-the- Union"
meeting recently, and threatened
them with punishment if they would
not obey. "Those god damned-those
damned agitators are telling lies"
Thus the teacher of morality and de-
cency continued to rave and use OBJ
scene language in the presence of
small school children. The miners
children are forbidden to attend the
meetings of their parents who are on
strike and listen to the truth but are
forced by threats to listen to the
clever propaganda of the schools and
obscene language used by the instruc-
tors.
The children of various schools re-
port that they are instructed to go
home Immediately from school and
not to go to the picket lines. The min
ers' children, however. understand
that they can help in this struggle
and they are doing their utmost. The
children know that by winning the
strike they will get wholesome food
and better clothing. They understand
why they are forced to live in such
miserable conditions and why their
parents cannot give them good food
and better clothing.
During this bitter struggle of the
miners for better working conditions
and decent living standard the eyes
of the youth have opened and they
are beginning to see the true condi-
ton of affairs and understand the
scheme of things in present society.
4No AollSSl w tIcy USHeVS TIE well
known stories of opportunities; of
freedom and equality; of patriotism
and heroism. They see that their
heroes, the state guardsmen and po-
lice, are used to shoot down their faith
ers and brothers and to beat up de-
fenseless women and children. In
stead of freedom and equality they
see peaceful meetings Of their parents
broken up and speakers arrested.
The youth have been taught many
valuable lessons during the coal
strike. They now realize that there
is a class struggle in America. 1t has
also showed them that society is d.
vided into two large antagonistic
groups which during an industrial dis
pute clearly show themselves to be
two distinct groups, one the oppres-
sor,. the other the oppressed. The
children themselves are living refu.

By ALFRED KNUTsON.

1t can be said today that the Com
munist Parties of the world under the
leadership of the Communist Inter-
national, are the only truly working
class parties and the only organiza-
tions that are fighting on the side of
the farmers and workers as class.
This is really one of the most out
standing characteristics of the pres
ent political period.
Take look at Europe In Ger
many and France the social demo-
cratic leaders, who participate in the
governments of these countries, the
Brauns and the Brands, have COM
pletely forgotten the working class
and fight on the side of the capital
lists. These so-called "benefactors of
mankind" have become the worst
enemies, the worst prosecutors of the
farmers and workers.
Glance at the situation in England.
The MacDonalds, the Snowdens, the
Hendersons and Thomases, are mere
tools Of the capitalist class. They
are known as working class leaders
but they mislead the farmers and
workers at every turn of the road,
They are for world capitalist imper-
ialism and against the farmers and
workers world rganization-the
Communist international.
In China the Kuomintang, led by
the Chang Kai-sheks, betrayed the
farmers and workers of China, and
this organization is now hand-in-g glove
with the imperialists and the native
capitalist class. The, one party in
China that is leading the farmers and
workers for the attainment of bet
ter standard of life is the Commu-
mist Party, affiliated with the Com
munist International.
This is true all over the world--in
some so countries where Communist
Parties are organized. Here in Amer
lea it is especially becoming more and
more evident that all capitalist par.
ties, middle class parties, progress
sive" parties and the socialist party
are merely instruments for perpet-
uating the rule of the exploiters
They don't want to fight for the in
terests of the farmers and workers

workers organization, has even gone
so far as to eliminate from its party
