patient that the thing must be done,
SO we know that only by the object

people who are hypnotized by the
damnable social system ever see its

now experiencing. One might preach

iniquity of the banking system, that
keeps the few in unearued luxury at
the expense of the many, and
these people would laugh. So long
as they have few shoddy
clothes on their backs, a four or
five room hog pen to live in, and few
cheap and adultersted eatables, they
are as happy and ignorant as the
chattel slave that went singing to his

being borne by the producers of the
land they will turn from their tor

whose wealth has been taken by the
rich to keep up their style. don't

deserve any better fate-any better

leave their children in a state of per-
