tional, free of the betrayers, was the
demand of the hour.
In the United States, May Day
was not abandoned when war was
declared in 1917. The revolutionary
elements in the Socialist Party took
seriously the anti-war resolution Of
the party adopted at the Emergency
st. Louis Convention early in April
and utilized May Day to protest
against the imperialist war. The
demonstration in Cleveland held on
Public Square and organized by
Charles E. Ruthenberg, then local
secretary Of the s. P. and later one
Of the founders and leaders of the
Communist Party, was particularly
militant. Over 10000 workers par
AIDED the streets to Public Square
and were augmented there by many
thousands more. The police bru-
tally attacked the meeting, killing
one worker and fatally wounding
another.

Changing Litter Often

Nature has decreed that no animal

Do not forget this. DO not force your
birds to pick over and try to eat out

dust and dried hen manure.

yes, but II Is the only way to do, II
