WHY SOCIALIST BRIDE

which creates wealth out of the
labor of the lives of babies? What
accounts for most of the saloons
and drinking dens and the sweat
shops but the money making,
practical" business interests? Is
this true religion and undehled?"
Mr. Dana and l don't think much
of religion which tolerates this
state of affairs. We think Social
ism the practical outcome of
Christ's teaching. Any one who
reads his Bible intelligently and
compares it with the best Socialist
literature will agree
But Christ was only a carpenter
on strickland was crucitied for
exposing the hypocrisy of the rich,
so. Of course, the pluts" can't take
Him seriously. They can say
Lord Lord" and pray when
they may be seen of men," and
they certainly have their reward"
People of America, don't you be
humbugged by this monster con
cealed behind his cloak of Chris
tianity," charity, protection, etc.
Just you sit down and read up
about Socialism by Socialists and
then get busy through the ballot
and straighten things out a bit
Why, wonder, did they call ours
a Socialist wedding" and then
leave out the only Socialistic part
of it? l refer to the question: DO
you both intend to bring up any
children you may have to the best
of your ability and for the welfare
of the human race?" Was it just
stupidity? or was Judge Ben Lind
sey's Beast" al work?

THE ASSESSOR
BY Walt Mason.

When he comes around assessing
l consider him distressing, notwith-
standing his politeness and the sun

and his singing to my heart are new

sorrow, and addition to my cares.
All his jollying and jolting l con-

assessor is bird don't indorse; he
should be as grim and sober as a
graveyard in October, be as sombre
as a mourner and as clammy as a

and their mirth will not annoy us,
but Sunny Jim assessor gives me

ing and his jeSts are coarse and
knocking, for it's i'll to be an aleck
where grievous sorrow reigns. Oh,
the blithe assessor wearies with his
everlasting queries and he has a
way of saying, without uttering
word, with glance that's scarcely
pious: you're another Ananias, and
the values you are giving are out
rageously absurd!" And he seems to
be suggesting while he's shopping
round and questioning that 1 want to

an imperishable yearning to assault
him with bulldog and caress him

ISMAY
By Walt Mason

Men felt their vessel sinking into
the icy wave and calmly and un-
shrinking they gazed upon their
grave, no coward cries of panic the
winds of midnight bore from out
the doomed Titanic and Ismay
came ashore. The peasant, rude
and lowly, sank fearless in the
foam, repeating prayers holy, his
eyes toward his home; the Croesus
died serenely and sank to oceans
floor, and no one persisted meanly
but Ismay came ashore. Men faced
their doom as Stole faced death in
days of old; oh, human souls heroic,
oh hearts of tested gold. The wild
dark waves forever your requiem
will roar, your fame will perish
never-and Ismay came ashore. The
bride and groom were parted, the
parent died alone, and children,
broken hearted, can only mourn
and moan, and dream about the
faces, the smiles they'll see no more
in old familiar places-and Ismay
came ashore. All, ne'er was such a
story on poets pages placed, the
triumph and the glory of manhood
undebased! OF manhood strong
and tender, of hearts of virgin ore,
of death when death is splendor-
and Ismay came ashore!
