LYCEUM NOTES.

Mary L. Geffs, the fourth speaker
on the Lyceum course, spoke at Lib
erty hall on Sunday, April -, to a
good sized audience. Mary Geffs is a
unique lecturer with snow white hair
and a motherly soul full of fight for
the oppressed of humanity. AS you
listened to her inspired words that
took you back to the old home you
had left and the remembrance of all
that is dear to you, you were reminded
of Mother" the only one that has
thought for her boy or girl, and she
explained in a lucid and graphic man
ner the terrible struggle Of widowed
of the nation, in their fight
for an existence and the care of the
little ones dependent on them for sap
port.
Mary Geffs is a wonder at her aeo

ROBERT KNIGHT.

Robert Knight of Colorado is a min
er and president of Local No 995 of
the United Mine Workers of America.
He was born thirty-three years ago
and spent his childhood in southern
Indiana. He left school at an early
age to help support the family, and,
as he says, worked at most all jobs
that employ unskilled labor" From
1900 to 1907 he followed railroad con-
struction work and caught the spirit
of revolt that is growing among the
American proletarians.
In 1907 he began to read socialist
literature and was instrumental in
forming the first socialist local organi-
cation at his home town-St. Croix,
Ind. The ignorance of the natives and
their prejudices against socialism,
stirred up by hardly less ignorant lead
ers, resulted in the assassination of
Robert Knights oldest brother, and
the family was forced to leave town
to save their lives.
They next located in Longmont, Col,
where they now live. Robert Knight
organized the socialists of that place,
and the vote is now scarcely less than
that of the combined old parties.
Mr.. knight began lecturing for So
cialism about two years ago and has
made a great success. He is a stall
war representative of the laborer in
politics, one of the strong PERSONAL
ties which give the working class con-
fidence in itself.

The Commonwealth. [volume] (Everett, Wash.) 1911-1914, 1913-04-18

The fifth and last speaker on the
course, Robert Knight, will be here
Sunday, the Goth. His subject, "The
Socialist Movement" should be of
vital interest to all socialists, sympa-
thizers and socialists in the making.
Robt Knight is especially fitted for
such a subject, as he has been a close
student of the movement for 10, these
many moons, and like all scientific
socialists believes that the revolution
should first take place in the head.
The Lyceum secretary has had a
communication from Comrade Knight
and every word tinges with the red
message of working class socialism"
To quote, he says: 81 am of the work
ing class, sent by the working class,
to instruct the working class in abol-
ishing the class struggle and anxious
ly await your cooperation.
So, comrades, it's up TO you. Do
your duty like true red socialists. Let
us make this the largest gathering of
people Everett has ever seen. Each
and every one bring a non-socialist
friend along. If they do not have the
price of the literature subscription,
we will admit them absolutely with
out charge. We have paid for the
course now, and can afford to be lib
eral Now, comrades, let us give the
plutes the scare of their lives. One
more BIFF and socialism is ours.

that she has encountered in the course
of her career, that she can be so en-

manent residence on the security. A
valuation fee of $500 must accompany
each application.
g. The amount of the loan granted
by the board may either be paid over
| in one sum, or, when the dwelling Is
to be erected, may be advanced IN
progress payments as the erection o.
the building proceeds. An inspection
and report must be made by an officer
of the valuation department prior tc
any progress payment being made OF
account of the lean, and for each such
inspection a fee of $500 shall be paio
by the applicant. Every applicant
after lodging an application for a loar
should await the decision of the boarc
before proceeding with the erection o.
the building.

from the advances to settlers branch.
Interest is charged at the rate of
per cent, reducible to 4 IL per cent,
provided payment Is made not later
than fourteen days after due date, and
no arrears or other payment under
the mortgage remain outstanding.
No proeuration fee, commission, or
charge for obtaining a loan should be
made to any person.
Any person desiring an advance
should make a written application on
the form provided for the purpose,
copy of which can be obtained from
any postmaster in the Dominion The
postmaster will also supply an envel-
ope in which the application may be
forwarded, and will give the applicant
any explanation which may be re-
quired respecting the filling-in of the
form. Applicants for a loan may also
be made to representatives of the val
uation of lands department, who to-
gether with postmasters only act as
agents for the office throughout the
dominion. No professional assistance
i is necessary, and no charge is author
lied for the filling-in of the applica-
/ ton form The department has no
agent authorized to act on its behalf
/ in this respect.
The total of the advances to work
ers up to the 31st of March, 1912 lin
Guiding moneys repaid and again adj
yanced), was $8,834,784. The depart
ment supplies applicants with plans
and specifications free of charge,
Eighteen different types of homes, con-
tanning from two rooms to eight rooms,
are covered by the plans. They are
drawn with view to getting the maxi
mum of room and convenience for a
/ reasonable price. The cost of the
buildings varies according to the size
from $5S2.00 to $3,10400. The plans
may be inspected at the chief post
offices in the Dominion, and at the
valuation offices at Invercargill, Dune
din, Christchurch and Auckland.
The reason for including a type OF
building to cost 100000 above the
maximum authorized to be lent tc
workers is that an applicant may have
some money saved and would wish to
expend the amount on a better build
ing than could be erected for the sum
borrowed.

The applications received for loans
during the year ended March 81, 1912
numbered 1928, the aggregate amount
