illrth Rate on the Forms.
The failure of the manufacturing
ir-nlcrpri‘scs to absorb the surplus
ltarlnin gpopulation is one of the
most depressing influences in Sou-
thern agriculture. ' Says World's
.work for January. in the first
;pl:lcc the birth rate on Southern
lat-ms is high. due to the fact. that
the blrthrate among rural peoples
is ordinarily high. higher than that
of urban peoples. Agriculture. as
it whole. tends to produce a high
birth rate. Farming is usually a
family Job. The system of-farm-
lng in the South is even more con-
ducive to a higher birth rate than
most kinds of farming. because of
the use of child labor in booing and
picking cotton. The demand for
the children actually fosters a high
birth rate. for children. like a com-
modlty. are to some extent the r.»
suit of an economic demand. . The
cotton planter prefers the share
crapper that has a. crowd to pick
cotton. and so the climate is mild.
and the cost and standard of living
on the farm comparatively low.
these crowds crept-oduoed. it is
noticeable that child labor laws that
krcvcnt the use of children in fac-
ories remit in a lowering ml the
birth rate. On the other hand, use
of children in any industry maln-
tains a high birth rate. it is sign-
ificant that in the first half of 1022

other positions. including those of
officer and director in leading finan-

Sir William’s career was so closely
allied with that of Sir Donald that
the two men have been called the
second Damon and Pythio‘s. The
partnership was one of the most
successful in the history of finance.
and throughout the partners remain-

at a. military academy in Toronto.
He prepared himself to be a. teacher

Thought and Action.
Sir \Villialll was it plain. every
day sort of lnan. lie achievcd his
goals al‘tcl- lllu manner and works
of other men. He was sturdy of
mind and body. a leader through
force of will. a. follower of the school
whose tcnvt it is to gn-t things done,
to turn thought into action. Once
his solicitor appeared before a com-
mission of the federal government
of Canada to explain his personal
anxiety in regard to obtaining a
charter for a stretch of railroad.
"Gentlemen." the lawyer ad-
dressed the members of parliament
before him. “this is no picnic for

would tend to substantiate the au-

By ly of lumisumg uhrieimas
reading sh-cretary Hughes publishes
the translation of an editorial which
appeared in the official Soviet organ
on November 7 of last year. which
should settle the matter with all ex-
cupt those who believe that whatever
Russia does should be applauded.
The state department had taken the
ground that the Soviet government
and the third internationals: wen.-
Sulmese twins. not to be separated.
while oilicial Russia denied this.
In the editorial quoted by the
stall.- drpartulcnt this unity is made
clcar; it is iterated and reiterated
as in the following paragraph:--
'i‘he mutual solidarity of the So-
Vic! rcpublic and the communist in-
ternalionalc is an accomplished fact.
in the same degree as the existenCc
and the stability of Soviet Russia
arc of importance to the In later-
uulionulc. the development and
tsrcngthcning of the communist in-
tcrnutionule is of importance to So-
vlct Russia. In the past the Inter-
nationale has helped Russia to ward
off the attacks of world capital. 1n
the future its aid will, prove more
effective. The success of the com-
munist internationals will contribute
to the consolidation of the political
and economic position of Soviet
Russia. and \‘lCc~ verso. The spirit-
ual. moral and material Load be-
tween them is based on the coni-
pietc solidarity of interests.
Russia may not ask further proofs
as it will be more dimple and less
embarrasing to enter a general de-
nial but in the event that more doc-
uments are called for they may boa
forthcoming. Mr. Hughes is not
given to hysteria and he is generally
credited with at lea'st a considerable
knowledge of law. a fact to which
the public gave due weight when he
gave out; the earlier papers.

QUACKS AND THEIR PATIENTS
(Letter in N. Y. Evening Post)-
'l‘hc vast majority of diseases and
physical complaints are due to two
causes: first,
habits of life. and second. a condi—
tion of mind called hypochondria. A
right habit of living will generally
health when he is sick. iiypochpn-
drill is the great supporter of quacks
and patent medicines. Hypochon—
drias merely imagine they are ill.
That is why they do not go to a re-
putable physician. If they really
thought tllf'y were sick they would
do so. But thcy know in thcir.
hearts that there is nothing: rgally:
the matter with them. and then-fore 5
are ashamed to disclose their “‘cull'.
and foolish fears to a skilled. sclisi- I
bio man. They are afraid he will

ll‘ll'li‘ weak :uld_lnorbill fears and
fancies drive the-m on to try. in 50-:

and ignorant quacks. Every person
is noun-thing of a llypochondriao.
The wise fight this state of mind;
the foolish succumb to it and hour-

The reason why

tims co-operate with them. A bur

he employs violence on a resisting o
unwilling subject. Swindlers any
quaclts operate on willing. or ii
least on unresisting and (fl-Operating
subjects. The foolishness and some
times guilt of such victims. as well
as the lack of violence used against -,
