Housekeeping.

Keep thy heart with all diligence
for out of it are the issues of life.
Heart-keeping is much like house
keeping. There must be continual
sweeping out and clearing out OF that
which is useless or offensive. II heart
cleaning could be done up once for
all. then the Christian might dis
charge all his graces, and have an easy
time of it. And just because the as.
saults of subtle temptations are 80

passions are SO frequent. and the task
Of keeping the inward man what 1t
ought to be is so difficult many one
who begins religious life gets dis
couraged and makes wretched fail
ure. The question with every Chris
tian is: "shall these evil Amalekites
of temptation burn up all my spiritual
nossessions and overrun my soul?
Shall outward assaults or inward weak
ness drive me to disbursement and
disgrace me before my master and be-
fore the world? Or shall they drive
me to Jesus Christ, who will always
give me the victory?-Rev. Theodore

Then sharp through the night came
the penetrating roll of drum; and
down the avenue facing the jail, clear
and plain under the dull glare OF the
burning building Breen saw strange
and wonderful sight.
Across the broad avenue from side

Where Mexican Veterans Are Buried.

The only national cemetery outside
the limits of the United States is that
in the City of Mexico. 1t was estab-

the remains Of $50 unknown dead
men who lost their lives in carrying
the stars and stripes to the halls OF

vention of the society, as well as news
from the I. S. s. chapters in the vari-
Gus colleges, are also contained in the
magazine. The size is 7x9, and the
price cents a copy.
1t will be the effort of the society
to give to the beginner through this
magazine, a clear understanding of
the principles and practices of social
ism The quarterly should be an ex-

who have been more or less intimately
connected with the educational system

LeaVenWorth.

There will be one member of the
school board to elect at the coming
spring election. At our meeting last
night Comrade Woldenberg was nomi-
mated to run for the position. The
present school board we consider to
be rather inefficient as all capitalist
controlled institutions are. Whenever
improvements or repairs were needed
the board would dilly-dally around and
haggle over technicalities until vaca-
ton was almost over before starting
work. A number of times the churches
and other places had to be secured
in order to accommodate the children,
and more often than not the little
ones could only go for half a day
each. The present school principal
has assumed the position of an auto
GRAFT intimidating the board, the fac
ulty and the teachers, usurping a
power that does not nor never has
belonged to him.
We hope to elect Comrade Wolden-
burg who we know will do his part
in seeing that good, efficient teach
ers, with well advanced economic
minds are hired to teach the little
ones; and to see that necessary repairs
and improvements are made more
timely and at less expense to the tax
PAYERS.

\ VISIT TO A REAL LIVE
LOCAL.
joseph T, Hazard.

The experiences of the past year,
in editing the Commonwealth, had
aroused a lively interest in affairs
of the Puyallup local. The informa-
ton given me, by comrade Patterson,
that the local was in a study session,
gave a splendid opportunity to see
this militant organization in real &C
ton.
We found a gathering of about
twenty people All were working men
and women. They were gathered
around a chairman who asked num-
Der of questions on scientific social
ism.
The questions dealt with economic
determinism, surplus value, the class
struggle In all the answers given was
the certainty and poise gained from
long study. There were no one man
answers-everyone seemed equally
familiar with the fundamentals of
MARKHAM political and industrial sci,
ence.
At the close of the meeting the visi-
tor was greeted with a warmth of
comradeship that made heart glow and
purpose strengthen.
It is impossible not to mention ele-
ments lacking in the Puyallup local.
There was no element of jealousy or
personal strife. Individual ambition
seemed an absent quantity. The op-
portunist was conspicuous by his alb
sence. There was no dull moment, yet
the self-appointed humorist produced
no elementary joke book.
Many sincere comrades in the state
do not agree with all the resolutions
and motions from Puyallup, but none
are deserving of a more serious con-
sideration. The future of our move
ment lies in a like seriousness in the
affairs of the worker, and similar
plan of good hard study
The workers Of Puyallup inspire one
with a hope and an inspiration.
