or not, we are all travelling along e path of
social science, and travelling very rapidly.
Every year sees higher and higher develop
inent of Socialistc tendences-the WISE So
cialistic tendencies of the time.
Near the city Of New York-on the Hudson
river-there is big, rich mans institution
called the Ardsley club. splendid building
situated among huge trees on the rivers edge.
golf course is one of the features-every-
thing that comfort requires is there
One day there was chance meeting of the
club that included one Willard, one Rockefeller
and one Gould.
Casually, they discussed Socialism and its
dangers.
The millionaire directors were astonished
when told tnat THEY and their club were
purely Socialists.
"Nonsence, !" they said. But it was not non.
sence.
Each OF these nen pays his sixty dollars
dues per year-and for that small sum secures
the free of beautiful country palace and
beautiful grounds, with bath, billiard rooms
and all sorts of luxuries. For that small sum
the solitary individual could not even secure
board shanty and cook stove in the forest-to
say nothing of palace.
That very board of governors-wi its
Rockefeller and Gould-ilustrated socialistic
idea. AS governors of the club, and as mem
bers of the house committee, those men worked
for the good-of all-AND THEY CHARGED
NOTHING FOR THEIR SERVICES. They
were glad to work for the public welfare and to
take in payment the approval and thanks of
their fellow club members,

If you ask what is So alsm, you ask ques
ton that cannot be answered--at least not ac-

One will tell YOU hat it means living COM
fortaby without working. Another will tell
you that it means dividing up the worlds

Still others will say hat it means making
the world better by dinishing the comforts of
the few in order to aplease the wrath of the
many.
There is much nonseure talked about Social
ism.
Socialism may be pari ally described as "the
science of improving social conditions
Treat Socialism as scence, and you rob it
of its terrors. For sciel &c never works violent
disastrous changes--an whatever is scientific
is for the benefit of all, specially for the bene-
fit Of those that are supe yior in ability.
The Socialism that rots the able man is hum
bug and nonsense. The Socialism that frees
the drone from working foolish and chmerical
as we'll vicious.
The science of improving social conditions
will improve the condition of The many
without depriving the faw of the superfuities
now necessary to their happiness. 1t will net

These facts were pointed out to them by
crtain man that thinks, and like Moliere's
amazed gentleman that found that he had been
"wrting prose all his life without knowing it,"
these very rich gentlemen learned that in
their private lives, they were taking advan-

operation, without knowing it,.
All modern Improvements, with few excep-
tions, are along scientific Socialistic lines.

under the old system it would belong to the
king or few aristocrats. In Hyde Park, you
may not enter with hired cabhanson or "four-
wheeler." Only the private equipages of the
rich are admitted to that "public' park. The
man in the hack must drive around Hyde Park.
When it is suggested there that the cabs also
be admitted the rich cry Socialism" There

In old days the nobleman in the streets took
his lighting system with HMM the shape of
"link boys" or torch bearers. He that could
not pay for lights stayed at home, or was robbed

and the rich are taxed to pay for them. More

1t was once thought wicked to teach the poor
to read. 1t made them dissatisfied with their
condition and put ideas into their heads"
Now the prosperous must pay to educate the
poorest-and into every head no matter how

AS long as men live they will give exceptional
reward to exceptional merit But when they are
civilized they will give the reward with delight
and NOT because they must give it.. And when
our great men are civilized they will not accept
a reward which involves plivation and suffering
for others.
There will never be any socialism encouraging
ideness or freeing men from the responsibilities
of life.
But, kind friends, when you prate about real
Socialism, the science of improving social con-
ditions,' when you denounce those that advo-
cate that kind of Socialism, you are like the fly
on the wheel in Lefontaine's fable-you are
buzzing and feeling very important; butt the

AT CHRISTMAS TIME
]. A. EDGERTON, IN "THE VANGUARD.

My mind goes bach through the ages dim.
TO the shores Of the past till it reaches Him;
The Chill who unto the world vas born
On the far-off primal Chri stnas morn;
And hear, in spirit, the gates unswing,
And the distant chorus Of angels sing
The song, whose sweet strains echo still,
The wonderful carol Of t'Peace, good will"

Or his pilgrimage. I Him raise

And He is gentle and kind and meek,

And preaching the gospel Of brotherhood.

Bearing His Cross to Calvary;
And I Him strong in His Agony,

Is the sacred season at Christmas time,-

There's suffering in the sad, old world
To-day, my brothers, there work to do,
A duty upon each Of you,
Until the banner Of loves unfurled
Above the nations Of all earth,
And the better is brought to b1rth,-
TO lift the fallen and teach the right;
To help the needy and spread the l1ght;
To preach, not narrow and outworn~ creeds,
But higher thinking and nobler deeds,
TO help the world its onward way,
And up the mountains Of Progress climb,
Till, the mists Of b1gotry
And night Of self shness, we may see
On the mountains Of Hope the rays sublime
Of the rising sun Of grander day,
Till we hear the bells Of the kingdom chime
O'er all nations, at Chr1 stmas time,
At Christmas line.
