A TOWN RULED BY
LOVE.
Neither Money Nor Punish
ishnents Needed in Com
nonwealth, Ga.

The most unique settlement
in the United States IS the town
Of Commonwealth, Ga.
There Is no need for money at
Commonwealth, for everything
goes into the common fund, aud
every man shares exactly alike
There are 10 rich people in
Commonwealth and no poor
people All work for one an
other, and the law and the creed
Of the community is Love" " If
a person wishes to build a house
the lumber is furnished from the
mill operated by the members
of the settlement. If vegetables
are wanted the common garden
supplies the need.
The settl ement is .un on the
cooperative plan. Love thy
neighbor as thyself" is a law
that is strictly enforced.
Two years ago Common wealth
wa founded by a few expert
mentalists. Now it a village of
seventy five families, working
about a thousand acres, at one
time a plantation, The old
fashioned home of the anti> bel
lum planter is now one Of the
town buildings. Besides this,
there are several dwelling
houses, a printing office, a
large school house, a sawmill
and large dining hall.
Commonwealth has its school
paper, mill and clergyman. A
magazine called SOCIAL Gospel,
setting forth the teachings Of
the community, is published ev~
cry month.
Many talented map and brill
liant women have gone to this
little Georgia village to live the
law Of love. Even in the school
good work and good behavior
are enforced, not by the rod,
but by love. In this community
there is said to be no jealousy,
no envy, no strife. This simple
creed hangs upon the wall Of
every cottage:
Thou shalt love the Lord,
thy God, with all thy heart, and
thy neigh6or as thyself.
Love worketh no Ill to MS
neighbor, therefore, love is. the
fulfilling Of the law.
This is Ny commandment
That ye love one another as l
have loved you.
He that loveth not his broth>
Ell whom he hath seen, cannot
love God whom he hath not seen.
And this commandment have
we from Him, that lie who
Ioveth God loves his brother
also. New York World.

The Cristobal Colon may also

depends Oh the weather, which
