How often do you eat this food7
A short time ago there appeared in
the columns OF one Of the prominent
magazines an article on building brain
and muscle by the proper selection OF
the foods you eat.
A good many people were surprised
to find oatmeal placed at the top Of the
list OF foods recommended; but If the
article had appeared In an English or
Scotch paper every reader would have
expected to see first place given to
good oatmeal.
AS a matter OF fact Great Britain
and Europe come to us for tremendous
quantities OF Quaker Oats because It
represents to them perfect food. being
the richest In flavor and best In clean
uness and purity. OF all oatmeals.
Americans should eat more Quaker
Oats: the results would soon show
themselves in improved conditions Of
health and strength. IS

THE STORY OF THE PEANUT
SHELLS.

AS everyone knows. C. w. Post OF
Battle Creek. Michigan. is not only q
maker of breakfast foods. but he Is a
strong individual who believes that the
trades-unions are a menace to the lib
erty OF the country.
Believing this. and being natural.
born" scrapper for the right. as he
sees 1t, Post. for several years past.
has been engaged in a ceaseless war
fare against THE Labor Trust" as he
likes to call 1t.
Not being able to secure free and
untranmeled expression Of his opin.
ions on this subject through the regular
reading pages of the newspapers he
has bought advertising space for this
purpose. Just as he is accustomed to
for the telling of his Postum STORY"
and he has thus spent hundreds Of
thousands OF dollars in denouncing
trades-unionisD.
AS a result of Posts activities the
people now know a whole lot about
these organizations: how they are
honeycombed with graft, how they OBJ
struct the development OF legitimate
business. curtail labor's output. hold
up manufacturers, graft upon their'own
membership. and rob the public. Natu-
rally Post is hated by the trades
unionists. and intensely.
He employs no union labor. SO they
can not call out his men. and he defies
their efforts at boycotting his products.
The latest means Of getting" Post is
the widespread publication of the story
that a car which was recently wrecked
In transmission was found to be loaded
with empty peanut shells, which were
being shipped from the south to Posts
establishment at Battle Creek.
This canard probably originated with
President John Fitzgerald of the Chi
cago Federation Of Labor, who, 1t Is
said, stated it publicly, as truth.
Post comes back and gives Fitz-
gerald the lie direct. He denounces
Fitzgerald's statement as a deliberate
talsehood. an undetermined and coward
ly attempt to injure his business, hav-
ing not the slightest basis in fact. AS
such an effort it must be regarded. 1t
Is significant that this statement about
"the peanut shells" is being given wide
newspaper publicity. In the patent
inside" of an eastern country paper l
find it. and the inference naturally is
that labor-unionites are insidiously
spreading this lie.
An institution (or n MANI which
will resort to moral intimidation and
to physical force. THAT will destroy ma
chinery and burn buildings. that will
main and kill If necessary to effect it's
ends, naturally would not hesitate to
spread falsehood for the same pur-
poses.
We admire Post. While we have no
enmity toward labor unions, so long as
they are conducted in an honest. live
andlet-live" kind Of way, we have had
enough of the tarred end of the stick
to sympathize thoroughly with what he
is trying to do. He deserves support.
A man like Post can not be killed, even
with lies. They are a boomerang; every
time. Again, we EnOr, for hasn't this

REPLY TO SHORT TALKS"

Editor of The Bulletin; beg to
encroaeh upon a little of your valu.
able space TO refute criticism OF
Scientific Socialism," by your RE
tired Teacher" published In the issue
Of the 21st. inst.
If your teacher" had taken the
trouble to have read up on Scientific
Socialism, he would have found that
nowhere are the inequalities and diff
ferences of the human family taken
into consideration more fully than In
the Socialist philosophy.
The Socialist recognizes that all
men are not born with the same Ell
dowments Some are physically
stronger than others, some have a
better mental equipment But we do
not now let the physically stronger
man take advantage of his physically
weaker brother, as did our primative
ancestors. So the Socialist propose,
in the near future, to shaclile cunning
as we have shackled force.
Overlooking ffor the reason that |
don't want to take up valuable spaced
the old bewhskered objection that
you can't change human nature, and
the teachers" ignorance of the
methods of stock breeders, object 70

the human race are fit only for man.

AS a recent writer said: Take
two babies the workers baby and
the parasites baby. There they are,
both of them, out of the great nys-
terry. Examine their soft little bodies.
DO you see any spurs on the one and
a saddle on the other? And yet, one
lis to grow up profiigate and loafer,
and the other starved and beaten
worker. One to rot at the top: the
other to be stunted and oppressed at
the bottom"
Perhaps these two babies would
not be equal, either actually or 20,
tentially, but is that any reason why
they should be given an unequal
start? How are we to find which Is
the best in any sense. If a multitude
Of opportunities are open to one and
closed TO the other?
| have vet to be convinced that
there is two kinds of education, one
which is good for the capitalist and
the other for the workingman. This
is the fundamental principle of priest
craft and the working class has had
to much Of such teaching already.
In conclusion | wish to say that all
Scientific Socialists agree on the
fundamental principle, which are:
