You people who know OF good second
hand machinery or boilers and engines, will
please let us know about it.
There is a sign in our saw mill reading
thus: mo smoking allowed" Bro. Warren
saws he does not smoke aloud anyway
The public works superintendent, Bro.
Harmon, has been instructed to build well
lighted shoe shop l6x24 for Bro. Yokey and
his assistants.
We are to have water works system. The
Hill furnishes any amount in winter, and we
shall pipe it to the kitchen until we can get
rich enough to do better.
- 1t is no Breakfast spell to get fuel enough
for our people. Pretty soon we want to have
a steam wood cutting plant and thus make
the impersonal forces of nature do our drudg-
cry.
Bro. Boyd the tailor is making some of
the cutest little caps for the comrades So
there is another necessity that we do not
have to call on the trusts to furnish them
for u.s.
Capitalism may crowd you so that you
cannot singly make a living with your small
machinery, but under cooperation you could
not fail When you get tired of hopeless
competition just write TO us.
Roland b. Jolly died Nov. 80, 1885, after
a lingering illness He was born May g, 1890,
and was consequently years and months
old. Hes was a gentle, lovable child, and
made friends of all who knew him. In their
hour of bereavement, the family has the SYM
pathy of all Equalityites.
Bro Wiedenmueler of Riverside, Cal.
has gone back home to make arrangements
to come here for good. AS is an orange grow
err he also understands all sorts OF small
fruits. His knowledge will come in handy
and so will his fraternal cooperative spirit.
We hope he will not stay away very long.
Mr. and Mrs. C. H. Lyons of Hoquain,
Wash. are visiting us with the intention of
casting their lot with us if we suit them. We
are not sure of our ability to do so as they
are advanced students of life's problems and
know something about the personal attain
ments possible to the human race. But at
least they can see that we al e trying.
Bro. w. j. Ballinger and wife and two
grand children arrived Friday evening from
Salt Lake City. We have been in cores
pondence with him quite while and hurry up
to give him hearty welcome. He brings
with him full supply of timers tools and
machines and wants to get to work making
his specialties to trade to our neighbors.
Frank Voight of Decatur, Ga. has dona-
ted enough blueing to last Equality laundry
year. 1t is in the air-this impulse of help
fulness. We rejoice almost daily over the
receipt of these gifts. They are part and
parcel of the forces that are building up the
brotherhood. 1t is more blessed to give than
to receive. Let us hope that we here on the
ground will soon be able to do some giving
too
Splash, splash. What's that? Why,
that's Abe Mitcnell's big boots blowing
his way through the mud, drawing logs
to the saw mill. But it's raining, you say.
Oh that's nothing to Abe. He is working for
socialism and don't know anything about the
rain. dare say he would enjoy a fine suit
of clothes and soft seat in the shade when
Equality is on her feet and making a surplus,
but 'Mitch' will not notice the mud and
patches until that happy contamination.
There is room for some more Mitchells here.
