:. History has been written about the
lives OF kings and warriors. The
common people have. scarcely been
considered In the narratives Of the
worlds development, excepting as q
background to picture the glory and
the achievements of the ruling
classes. Only here and there do we
get glimpse into the lives of the
masses.
While there was a civilization of q
very superior kind centuries before
the Christian era, men had not
learned the lesson Of brotherhood.
The noted philosophers Of ancient
times declared that a purchased Ia
borer was better than a hired one,
and in accordance with this principle
half the world lived in slavery when
Christ was born. To labor with ones
hands Was regarded as dishonorable,
and to be a laboring man was to be
placed on a level with the beasts of
the impossible. -.,s -, D..

masters, but they were slaughtered
and driven back to their toll more

With the introduction Of machinery
and other inventions during the
eighteenth century there came the
great industrial revolution, in the
throes of which we are still laboring.
The factory system has had it's up

to great numbers Of people during
the early days Of it's existence. Large
fortunes were made by the owners,
but the workers. wages rapidly de-
creased to the bare cost of living. And
yet labor was regarded as "free.'' 1t

contract" Great economists insisted
upon the right Of individual liberty
In making agreements.
