Socialism in Milwaukee

The Fort Worth Record of Thurs
day gives the history Of the resort in
Milwaukee, Wisconsin to the test Of
Socialism to get rid Of the reign Of
political terror
The people became so disguised
with conditions that they elected a
socialist Mayor and a majority Of
the city council.
After two years under the new re
CINE the conditions are found TO be
worse than ever and the socialist of
fcials we're put ont and fusion
ticket elected
The Record says Il was a try out
of Socialism and it failed 70 bring
relief.
In closing its editorial the Re
cord said:
This recall Of Socialism in Mil
waukee comes in good time. II ac-
centuates the unfitness Of a cult to
govern, whose teachings ignore the
plain lessons OF history. Socialism
might be tried after general poll
teal rentecost when the consciences
OF all men had been searched, turn
ed inside out and regenerated, but
not until human nature has been
purged as by fire, will altruistic phi
osophy succeed in workable con
dition."

From shantx to Pulpit

Jimmy was born in a poor little
home on the edge of the swamp. He
had a swarm OF brothers and sisters,
none OF whom had enough to eat or
much to wear. In cold weather, the
family huddled over a smoky stove
that was suited with green wood,
and took tdrns sitting on it's top. in
order TO get warm. Jimmy went
barefooted almost all winter.
The father and mother were ig-
norant foreigners. The children were
so ill-fed, ill-housed, ill-clothed and
ill-cared for, that II is a wonder that
any OF them had lived to grow up;
but they did and we're a cheerful and
healthy band. Little Jimmy in parti-
cular had sparkling dark eyes and
a winning smile that won him many
friends. He could not go to school
much for his parents needed what
money he could earn, and In that
village truant officers were un-
known. But his friends lent him
books and magazines; he read them
eagerly and thought his own
thoughts. He was quick, capable and
faithful and made himself valuable
to his employers.
Years passed His father died,
but until he was twenty-one jim
my gave all his wages to his mother.
Still he longed for knowledge; and
when he was OF age he began to
study in earnest. It is not an easy
thing for a man to begin his school
ing at the age of twenty-one, and
some of his friends who would not
discourage him felt sure that he
would not persevere.
Every cent of his school expenses
he paid himself, and he also gave
money for the education of some Of
his brothers and sisters. His diff
culties and discouragements we're
many, but he would never give up.
He entered college at last. Dur
ing his course his throat once or
twice gave him so much trouble that
he was compelled to stop work and
undergo medical treatment Still
he kept on. studying when he could
working or resting when he must
and helping others.
Having at last obtained his de-
gree. he entered the theological SEM
mary for he had long ago determin-
ed to become minister Every cent
OF his expenses for the three years
course he earned himself, and be-
sides doing the double labor Of study
and self support, he helped when
ever opportunity offered in outside
evangellstic work.
Graduated and ordained this boy
from the shanty beside the swamp
was called 20 a large Southern
church. where he is now preaching
the gospel, leading in all good work
for the community, and winning
many TO give their lives to Christ
His people love and honor him. and
he thanks God daily for the onward
leading that, in spite of all obsta-
oles. placed him at last where he
might serve Him.-Youth's Com
panion.
