walking, he has to stand respect
fully on one side of the road until
the policeman passes in order to
escape beating or arrest. The
economic life, above all, is the
most strictly regulated for the ben
eft of the imperialist exploiters.
For instance, the Chinese native
farmers are not allowed to sell
their sugar cane, one of the main
products of the island, to the peo-
pie directly. They are forced to
sell to the japanese sugar manu-
turerS for very low price, arbi-
trarily fixed by the monopolized i'm
perialist buyer. The extent of the
super profit the Japanese imperial
lists collect in this manner is shown
by the fact that, in 1918, with 3d.
100000 yen the Japanese sugar
manufacturers bought enough sugar
cane to enable them to bring in
48O,000,000 yen in the sale of the
manufactured product.
THE 10000 aborigineS of For
moSa are even more horribly
treated by the japanese exploiters
than the Chinese natives. Since
1895, over $4,000 aborigines were
masSacred. In order to keep them
from further cultural development,
the aborigines are not allowed to
descend from their mountain
homes and mix with the Chinese
natives. Violation Of aborigine
young girls and women, beating
and arrest of men by Japanese ex-
ploiters are daily practices. Hunt
ing, the chief means of maintenance
among the aborigines, is rendered
practically impossible by the Japa-
nese law, according to which the
aborigines are strictly forbidden
from possessing or carrying spears
or weapons of any kind. Forced
labor, with little or no compenSa-
ton, is very common practice.
With their living conditions pressed
far below the subsistence level, the
abortgines revolted once in 1920 and
again in 1880. Although both of
these uprisings were drowned in
blood. followed by the most hor-
rible white terror, the rising tide
of the world revolt against i'm
perialism will surely find strong
support and active participation
from these determined and brave
victims of japanese oppression!
The same "bitter fate" which
the Koreans and inhabitants OF
FormOsa know SO well, has now
fallen on the heads of the pee
pie of Manchuria, also members
of the same racial stock as the
japanese explOiters. The history
of Manchuria under Japanese
rule furnishes further evidence in
support of the MARKHAM conten-
ton that class against class" not
racial conflict, is the real issue in
the social struggle of the multi
tude of tOiling humanity for hap
piness and freedom.

DILL TWINE kept his promise not
~ to send Cons body to be cut up
by students.
When the convict crews left, he
picked a secluded spot where tall
pines rose against the cloudless sky
and the land sloped to the first
shallow pool of the swamps, and
ordered Ebenezer and trusty TO
dig a grave behind a cluster of
bushes. Rich foliage shaded the
the exposed roots of ancient trees
in the stagnant water and beyond,
the green tangleS brooded with it's
mystery. The dew was still wet on
the sparse grass and the morning
chorus of red birds were starting
their daily hymn to the rising sun.
-Four buzzards sailed effortleSs
over the stocEade and perched on a
dogwood to watch the digging men.
A white butterfly settled upon the
fresh turned soil, fluttered it's wings
and flew off.
That night, when the cage door
closed on them, Ebenezer told the
story of Cons burial.

FEEDINGS
REPLACE BREAST

Usually in the seventh or eighth
month of the baby's life a bottle
feeding is substituted for one breast
feeding daily. For the first two
weeks. one bottle feeding may be
given and four breast feelings a
day.
Each week thereafter one more
bottle feeding may be added, until
about the tenth month the child
is entirely off the breast and eating
a mixed diet of cooked cereals,
strained green vegetables and whole
cows milk.
The doctor should advise regard
ing the bottle feelings, which can
be made from whole milk, sugar
and water, the mixture to be boiled
three minutes in a double boiler.

mother should remove his thumb or
fingers from his mouth and put
toy in his hand to divert him.
If the baby. sucks his thumb when
he goes to sleep, stiff cuffs bound
about the elbow or mittens may be
put on when he goes to bed. These
should not be used continually, as
they may keep the baby from learn
ing to do other things with his
hands.
The best way TO break this habit
is to keep his hands occupied with
some toy. Do not punish the baby
for thumb sucking, as this will only
keep his attention on it and may
strengthen the habit.

LITTLE TRIPS AID
IN CHILD'S PLAY

Any one who has observed close
ly the play of children has noticed
that there come periods when a
given group of children plays over
and over again the same games,
with little or no addition of new
ideas.
Children, like adults, need new
experiences. new contacts and new
materials if they are to be stimu-
lated to the richest and most val
liable kind of activity.
Little trips and excursions are an
easy way of providing children with
new ideas 10 develop in their play
life. 4
Unless the child already has too
much of everything Gin itself a
cause for stale play, new playthings
are also a help.

FURNITURE FROM

Most of the furniture in baby'S

With the exception OF the crib,
nearly all the furniture may be

is a luxury 10 be afforded only by

PreUent Thumb Sucking;
EaSierIhanCu7i Habit

Thumb sucking or finger sucking
may begin in the baby soon after
birth, and IL it is not stopped early,
it may persist for months or years.
1t is a natural habit for the baby
to acquire. but it may deform the
mouth and because it increases
drooling. 1t may become very bad
habit If carried into childhood.
1t is more easily prevented than
cured.
Though it is important to prevent
it, or to overcome it If it does start,
it should not excite parents unduly.

fingers or thumb ne naturally starts
sucking it. At this time and every
time ne does this thereafter, the

Child Needs
Candy; It's
Health Aid

There is no set rule in regard to
the amount Of sweets each child
should have, but it is essential that
every child get a proper amount Of
sugar.
The old idea that candy is bad
for children is myth. On the con-
trary. properly prepared, clean and
wholesome candy is good food for
the youngsters and should be pro-
vided in certain quantities for
them
Some children can eat more candy
than others without harmful effect.
This amount can be determined cas-
lily by the parents and always should
be borne in mind.
Parents should not bride their
children with candy. The sweet
should come as a matter of course
during the day and II given as an
ordinary part of the routine the
child will not care for it abron-
mally.
It is wise to keep a supply of
candy about the house, serve it
under supervision, and see that too
much is not in sight. If there is
not too much, too much can not
be eaten.
Also, the Riddles like to buy their
own candy. It gives them a feeling
of Importance to choose their fay
orite varieties and pay the store
man.
Let them make their own Selec-
tions occasionally.
