BY A. CHIGEROvICH.

4 SHORT while ago a delegation
~ of British women visited the So
Wet Union. The delegation consisted
chiefly of non-party women, women
workers, the wives of workers and
active members of the No more War
organization. 1t was elected by la
Dor meetings and travelled at the
cost of the respective organizations
to which the women belonged. They
wanted to get an insight into the
life of the Russian women workers,
their conditions of labor, their living
conditions, the Red Army, etc. The
women wanted to learn from them
the truth concerning Soviet Russia
and it's relations to war. Among the
delegates there were many pacifists,
members of the Labor Party, of vari-
Gus women's organizations and of
cooperative societies.
Let's Hear!
The delegation, which travelled
through q number of industrial dis
tricts in the Soviet Union-the
Donez basin, the textile districts and
Leningrad returned to Great
Britain deeply impressed. A large
crowd of women workers awaited the
S S. "Soviet" at the port of Lon
don. In all districts the women
workers returning from the Soviet
Union have been met with demon
strations without parallel as far as
size is concerned. Everybody wanted
to hear what the women workers,
who had seen the Soviet Union with
their own eyes, had to say about it.
"One should be proud of the name
woman-C Communist" said one of
them. eve should be ashamed that
in comparison with what the work
ers there have done we have ac-
so little in our country"

The shadows lifted-moved-

strange, noble pattern had
never seen by day. There were
no colors, no small, merry sounds
none Of the sweet distractions
which make my daytime garden
dear to me-, But there was
strength and order which I'd
never felt in sunny hours. A
sense of purpose in those
shrouded, sleepy shades-a dignity
to those great branches, arched
against the sky-a peace and mys-
terry to the velvet grass, which
rose so Justify from out the soil
OF other lives. A strong, serene
simplicity, which bound each
little part within one lovely plan.
And suddenly I saw my garden
with amazed, awed eyes. 1t was
no longer MY garden-something
had bought and planted with
MY money and MY hands, a
pleasant plot to decorate MY
home. I saw instead that it was
but a vital part of that, mysteri.

) long to flee, back to the laughing
hours.
And sometimes we do flee.
Sometimes we try to numb our
pain in noisy fun-or drown our
bitter thoughts in Glowing or in
drink
: But sometimes we are brave
enough to face the dark-and wait.
Then, as we wait, the darkness
thins and lifts. Our stupid eyes
adjust themselves to pain. We
still see dimly, but a plan appears,
like a vast pattern laid against
the souls deep night.
AND SUDDENLY OUR PAIN
IS CHANGED. NO LONGER
DOES 1T SEEM TO BE OUR
PAIN, SOMETHING DECREED

WE SEE THAT 1T is BUT A

AND IN THAT CYCLE. HAP

read your articles and sometimes
talk them over at the meetings OF
our little club. But we feel that
our children ought to have regu-
lar instruction about health. What
can we do about it?'
shudder when / think how
MANY thousand village and rural
schools, how many thousand par
ents. are similarly situated.
My best answer to this CORE
spondent is what was actually
done by Mr. and Mrs. ii. M.
Ashby at little place called Jones
Village in the State of Oklahoma.
Spencer School, when the Ashby's
first went there, had most or its
windows broken, was full OF pig
con and dauber nests, dirty brown
paper peeling from its walls, and
its floors Uttered with the crumbs
of the last years dinners,
The Ashbys went to the school
directors, who, evidently, were
people of good sense enough to
listen to good sense. They agreed
with the Ashbys that children
and teachers alike could do better
work in neat, attractive rooms.
First the outside of the school
building and the dingy outhouses
were painted. The latter were
whitewashed inside and re-washed
after that twice every year. The
directors had a restful blue paper
put UP in the schoolrooms and
the ceilings and woodwork were
painted to match. After papering,
the rooms were fumigated with
formaldehyde. Next year btchlor-
ide Of mercury was used as well.
This was done when the Ashoys
heard that there had been a case
OF tuberculosis in the school. The
children thoroughly appreciated
the wonderful change wrought In
the building.
After this the next important
problem was the drinking water
supply. This we'll was good one
and only needed to have the base
raised one inch off the cement plat
form and cement run under the
edge to make the we'll proof against
surface water with its possibilities
of disease. This was done with
the help of three Of the boys. In
dividual drinking cups were tried,
but were a failure; children will
not stick to their own. Therefore
the authors took a pipe six feet
long and bored holes in it eighteen
inches apart. They plugged one
end, screwed the other into the
standard of the spout. Each stroke
of the handle now sent fountain
six inches high out of each hole.
The children were taught not to
touch the holes with their lips,
and they then had safe drinking
supply costing practically nothing.
When the out-buildings had been
cleaned up, the toilets were at

To find your mate--that is luck;
to know him when you find him
that Is inspiration; to win him
when you know him-that is art;
and to keep him when you've won
him-that is a MIRACLE!
