In Mem0riam.

On Thursday night December
the 9Th, 1912, the spirit of Mag
gle Burton the beloved wife of
Glenn Burton, took its flight to
God who gave it. She was the
daughter of the late Gideon
Burton and was born and reared
in the community where she
died and was 81 years, six
months, 26 days cid. Besides a
dear husband she leaves five
little children, a mother, three
brothers and four sisters to
mourn their loss. She was sick
81 days and all that loving
hands could do was done but God
does all things for the best. We
weep not as those that have no
hope, she was ever ready and
willing when the death angel
came. If she could only speak
she would say, don't grieve. for l
am at rest.
We can not call her back to
this troublesome world but we
can be ready when the sweet
message comes to meet our dar-
ling sister on that beautiful
shore where parting will never
come no more. She talked so
pretty before she died one would
almost think she was an angel.
She said she could hear the
beautiful harps and ask her hus-
band to listen to the sweet music.
The funeral was conducted by
Rev. Dudgeon and the remains
was laid in the Bear Wollow
cemetary near her father and
sister to await the resurrection
day. The funeral was largely
attended everybody in sympathy
with the bereaved family.
A dear sister.

The best place on earth is a

place to our memory more preci-
Gus than home. Our earliest and

with home. There the first les

child whose earliest impressions

way are evil habits more effect

should be what they wish their
children to be. But there are
some dear girls and boys who
have no home, no dear mother

through the unpleasant hours of
this life. May we greet them
with a smile. We should try to
make them happy and above all,
meet them in a home where
changes never come; a home for
every one who will obey the

Saviour. The rich and the poor

der our present system, secure theme
selves against want in their old age.
Realizing this, many great private
corporations are now establishing
old-age pensions for their employees.
This tendency has been applauded BY
the very men who oppose government
pensions for the aged
But there are two great objections
to old-age pensions by private cOrpora-
lions.
In order to gain a pension from
corporation, it is necessary for the
working man to tie himself TO the cor
poration for life. In order not to lose
the pension, the workingman or wo-
man must be satisfied with his or her
wage, laborign conditions and hours Of
labor. This subservience makes the
laborer virtually a serf or slave and
establishes new feudalism
The second objection to private old
age pensions Ia that the system
smacks of charity. 1t causes the
workers to feel that some one owns
him. The private system results in
the bestowal of too much power in the
hands of the employer over his work
.ers.
Everybody in America readily I'M
derstands why soldiers are entitled to
pensions. 1t is because soldiers rem
der, service on the field Of battle
which is considered dangerous to life
and limb.
But few people realiez that the NUM-
Der of wage earners killed and MAIN
ed every year on the railroads, in the
mines, factories and other industries
in our country is approximately equal
to the number Of soldiers killed and
wounded in any one year Of our great
civil war, with all its terrible battles.
80
Moreover, there are any number OF
occupational diseases which are the
natural result Of certain kinds OF
necessary work, but which make
total or partial invalids Of hundreds
of thousands of wage earners.
The work Of the soldier Of industry
is infinitely more necessary than the
bloody work of the soldier on the bat
tlefeld. Most of the labor performed
must be performed every day and
every hour. or our civilization would
stop.
- 80
The aged working men and work
ing women have therefore claim on
society that is even better than the
claim OF the soldier.
Any toiler who has faithfully labor
ed for meager wage for twenty years
or more has created more wealth than
a pension in old age can repay. Every
toiler reduces more than he is paid
Otherwise he would not be employed.
It is a condition of the capitalist or
der Of society that the employer must
get the lions share Of the product.
The word pension" in this case Is
a MISSIONER. The payment ought to
be called either partial restitution"
or ''old folks compensation"
The working men andw orking wo-
men Of this country are entitled to
be taken care of their old age.
And they win be taken care OF in
the future.

...SOciety's Duty To The Aged.
(By Victor [. Reraer.ll

A@st~ 49, ~ ~ 49, ssl+ll'
TN HERE can be no doubt that the
condition OF the aged workers
has grown worse in this coun-
try during the last thirty years.
And for this reason:
Our country is rapidly changing
from an agricultural to manufac-
turing country.
On the farm it is comparatively
easy to take care of the aged. Espe-
cially was it so in former days when
living was cheap.
There is plenty Of room on the farm.
And even old people can usually do
chores. enough to make up for the
slight expense Of their keep.
- -
The case is entirely different with
the urban workers. The maintenance
OF their old folks, by the wage earn
ers Of the cities-especially where
these men and women have children
to take care offs nowadays simply
impossible.
Aged working men and women
therefore soon become objects Of
private or public charity.
After having hzed life Of useful
ness, the working men and the work
ing women OF the country-the men
and women who create all wealth
are usually subject to all the indigni-
ties. the sordidness and misery Of the
poorhouse, or the system Of outdoor
relief"
No wonder there are so many
tragedies. Men and women Of finer
sensibilities prefer death to this
humiliation.
The aim of ever nominal man and
woman is an old age free from care
and want. To that end most Of them
toll patiently and live closely, seeking
to save something agains the day
when they can earn no more. And yet
the same fate awaits the overwhelm-
ing mass of them.
In the life of the toiler there are
weeks, and sometimes months, of en-
forced idleness, weeks of unavoidable
idleness, losses from cheating and
swindling, and then, as age creeps on
about his forty-fifth year, q constant
declining capacity to earn, until at
ifty-iye or sixty he finds himself help
less and destitute.
There is hardly more pitiful TRACE
dy than the lot Of the toiler who has
struggled all his life to gain a COM
petence and who at sixty years faces
the poorhouse.
The black slave had no such TRACE
dy as this. 1t is q tragedy reserved
for the free worker in the freest
country on the globe"
:
There can be no question as to the
right of these men and women to be
taken care Of decently in their old
age. They have made civilization pos
sible for everybody, and especially for
the comfortable classes.
AS said before, from their earn
the average is about $4OO q
year-it is absolutely impossible for
them to save anything for their old
age.
Even If they should descend to 9
Chinese standard Of living, they could
not, as mass, Lay by competence.
They would thereby diminish trade.
cause hard times, and change our
civilization. But they could not. I'M
