1 Kit KKTOWN, Sierra I.eone,
Africa. Jan. 3 ( Al') A o.uurter of
;a million domestic slaves free to
day und on a basis of political
eriuulily with their former masters
owe their emancipation to a
woman.
Lady Kathleen Simon, wife of
Sir John Simon, un Knli"" liberal
party .lender is credited with In
forming the world that slavery mill
existed In the Brl'.ish protectorate,
j Tlie slaves were owrjed by nutives,
not by Kuropeans. NY-nrly one
fifth of the people were In bond
uku' under domestic slavery. Do
mestic sluvery did not carry with
It the. right .of suh or the right to
manhandle. It was nearer serf
dom than slavery. The slaves
principally persons engaged in
tribal warfure or their descendants
before the proclamation of the
protectorate in lnytj.
After these conditions had been
exposed legislative action wau
taken to uhollsh the last vestige of
slavery. I'revlously. in an
ordinance had been passed declur
Ing that the children of slaves
should he free und thus slavery
would have disappeared in time.
Comparatively few of the for
mer slaves have lett their masters
in the newly ucqulred freedom. It
is probable that many will con
tinue to work us free men und
women for those who formerly
claimed their labor without pay.

I vwun u. i uuiiKf who nuiiiuu worn out uiu uiinra puui
for German reparations payments, oujiht to know something
jibout international relations. Addressing the Now England
Mociely in New York the other day he stated a point of view
y.cll worth studying.
I "A wise and brave man," said Air. Young, "acts inde
pendently so far as he can and co-operates when he must in
iider to get results. So it should be with nations. Let
liot tho greatest stand dumb when it should speak. Let it
pot be idle when it should act. Let it have courage an.l
sympathy and vision. Let it assume the resixmsibility oT n
leadership commensurate with Cod's great jcifls to it. Let
l lie unafraid for itself and unsuspicious of others. Let the
ji.ualysis of small views and the selfishness of littleness be
londemned in our politics at home and nowr become a pin t
of our ixilicy abroad.
j . "Beyond the frontier America should speak iu a unit,
Viiweakened by partisan politics, and at the frontier all for
eign influences should slop. Frontiers are the doors lo
homes. Ix-t every man who enters behave with the courtesy
due his host. International relations are not more difficult
than personal nnes."-
. Since all the problems arising out of personal relations
I ave not yet been solved, it is perhaps not strange that sim
i ar international relations remain difficult at many points.
Yet the attitude of the wise and hraw man, as described by
Jir. Young, is an ideal wortn striving for. And there is
( cat hope for future international relationships in the theory!
that the same attitude can be applied with happy results in
both cases.

1 The Old Bus!
The paint may be scraped off here and there and
probably the mudguards bear the dents of careless
parking- or even more careless fellow parkers.
The engine may miss now and then and shifting
gears may not be the smooth easy matter it once was,
but the old bus is still a good old friend.
It has served you well. Down to the office; quick,
pleasant shopping trips; cool, refreshing evening
drives through the country; week-end journeys to see
the folks back home, wonderful vacations all this
and more the old bus has given you.
You know all of this of course, but did you ever stop
to think how much the oft-discussed business of ad
vertising has had to do with the fun you've had out of
the old bus? -
v
Didn't advertising tell you of many things that
m;ide your car run easier 'and more economically?
Didn't advertising help you plan your pleasure trips?
And when you are through with the old bus, won't
advertising help you dispose of it advantageously and
enable you to select the new one more intelligently?
And that's just the motor-car department of life.
Advertising- means quite a lot to you, doesn't it?
Life would be full of detours without it.
