SEEK AMERICAS SUN
Britons Crossing Atlantic in In
creasing Numbers.

NEW YORK, Feb. Sat this time
OF year the people of the British Isles
devote part of the winter season to
seeking lands of sunshine. Formerly
Egypt was the magnetic point. Now
the travel needle veers around to the
Bahamas, Jamaica, Trinidad and
other parts OF the West Indies, while
Florida supplies the needed attractions
on the mainland.
Cabin-class passengers are among
those seeking these sunny spots.
For several years the number of
British winter visitors has been con-
stantly increasing, as the "On to the
Lands OF Sunshine" movement is very
popular in England.

had been arrived at between the

Asiatic War.
When Canton, the most important
city and port of southern China, the
other day fell into the hands of the
invading japanese armies, it could
be merely question of time when
Hankow, the provisional capital, was
to share its fate. And it didn't take
long, for few days after the flag
of the rising sun had been unfolded
above Canton, it assembled over Han
kow; the Chinese defenders fled, or, as
they preferred to say it, "retreated
in accordance with well-prepared
strategic plans" BY whatever name
they call it, they abandoned Han
koW to its fate, mostly because there
was nothing else they could do.
At about this time Japan made it
clear that she was willing to talk
peace on certain conditions; this was
said in response to a German and
British query. What might those
conditions be?
One was that Chang Kai-shek

socialist, agreed; it also agreed when
he stated that friendship with Ger
many and Italy must be considered
extremely important, so, as soon as he
had returned to Paris from Marseille,
he had Monsieur Bonnet start con-
ferences with the British, the italian
and the German ambassadors, and he
announced that this week he would
begin issuing decree upon decree in
an effort to increase ornaments and
to extract from the pockets OF the
people still more taxes so as to bal
ance the budget and make it groan
less under the added burdens of new
expenditures for army, navy and air
forces.
It is a quite remarkable fact that
while the leading statesmen of Eu-
rope continually mouth pretty sem
fences about peace, and everlastingly
tinker with plans for guaranteeing
that peace, they are doing all they
possibly can to prepare to break it..
German Colonies.
Great Britain and France accommo-
dated Germany in the matter of
Czechoslovakia; Great Britain is
about to declare legal and respected
the Italian conquest of Ethiopia;
France is approaching closer and
closer to the political theology of
German and Italian dictatorship, and
to date Germany and Italy have been
able to obtain from the democratic
great powers practically anything
they have wanted while they have
not offered very much, if anything,
in return.
Now the next advantage Hitler will
claim is the return of the war-lost
German colonies. He has been asking
for them for some time, but now at
last his demand has become official
to the extent that it has come up
for discussion within the British cab
met. What the outcome of the nego-
tiations will be, can, of course, not
now be said, but if the developments
at this point follow the same general
trend that has characterized preced-
ing conferences, Herr Hitler will soon
succeed in his attempt to place once
more the German colonies under the
German flag. 1t is, it seems, in
connection with this issue that
Joachim Won Ribbentrop, German for
eign minister, has been spending
few days in Rome where he conferred
with Mussolini and Foreign Minister
Galeazzo Ciani, for Italys support
back of the German colonial demands
is of considerable importance.
MediatOrs.
Dictators nowadays, indeed, seem to
get what they want, and here is fresh
evidence: Czechoslovakia and Hun
gary have not been able to agree in
all details as to how much territory
the Czechs ought to cede to the Hun
garians, and at critical point Ger
many and Italy-that is, Hitler and
Mussolini-stepped in offering their
mediation. They would settle the
problem, they said, and one official
in Berlin smilingly added: eve have
some experience in the Czechoslo-
vakian field, you know!''
That offer of mediation was &C

tricks in Clothing Care" was the
subject of the second series of les
sons in the Pine county clothing pro-
ject conducted last week by Miss
Helen Larmore, clothing expert from
the Agricultural Extension Division,
University of Minnesota.
The class for this district met at
the Askov school last Thursday at
10 a. m. and lasted until 4 p. m.
with all but three of the group lead
erS in attendance. Mrs. Arthur Sand
gren substituted for Mrs. Wallace
Ogilvie and Mrs. Charles Krantz for
Mrs Marie Elkjer.
Some of the tricks taught were
how to test fabrics, how to wash
woolens without shrinkage and how
to make a patch with hidden seams.

The second meeting of the clothing

report of the last meeting and called
the roll to which the following men,
bers responded each with one spe-
cial thing she had learned at the
previous meeting: Mrs. Arvid Nelson
and Mrs. Emil Erickson, Birch Creek;
Mrs. Merle Pulling and a substitute
for Mrs. Ben Street, Windemere; Mrs.
Jas. Murphy and Mrs. Victor Johnson

Edwin Johnson, Duquette; Mrs. VIM.

Az Bruno; Mrs C. Stafford and Mrs.
Floyd Fairchild Group b. Bruno.
The meeting was turned over to
Miss Larmore, who discussed fully,
tricks in Clothing care, stain removal
and the minute overall patch-prob-
ably the most useful and disable topic
in the whole course.
Several interesting facts were
brought out during the discussion,
OIlc VI WIllSll was IilC SildI dSICl
of fabrics Each member was pro-
vided with several samples of mater
ial and by burning portion was able
to determine its identity and thus
choose the best method for launder-
ing to avoid that "washed-out" look.
Other interesting factors were the
blocking of sweaters and the removal
of stains which many of us, who do
not have easy access to commercial
dry cleaning establishments, will find
especially helpful.
In our particular Training Center
we had the problem of softening hard
water, but although we found a sat-
isfactory method for softening the
water, the special problem of remov-
ing iron from hard water was still
unSolved.
These meetings have proven very
beneficial to a great many home
makers in every community, so let
us urge all those who signed up for
the local groups, as well as the lead
ers, to make it point to attend your
meetings so we will always have 100
percent attendance.

again the American government has
sent strong note, protesting that the
principle of the Open Door had been
violated by the japanese on many
occasions. And the japanese ack-

that. Tokyo wants the western pow

unwilling or unable to do anything
more than protest. Dictatorship
