The Social democratic club of the
state Normal was entertained by local
Socialists at our hall last Saturday
night More than twenty-five students
and teachers were present, and there
were party members i'm sufficient
number to swell the crowd to seventy
five. There was n brief program of
songs, recltations and speeches. A
choir of children, trained by Mrs.
Bertha Rogers, opened the meeting
with revolutionary songs. Miss jose

club, recited the picnic
interlude from Mrs. Wigs of the
Cabbage Patch" Mrs. II. w. Smith
recited "a Mans a Man for a That"

9 to II o'clock A table luncheon was
then spread in the center of the hall,
and while this required some time, 1t
did not interfere with the dancers,
who continued to tango round the TIA

charge for any part of the entertain

The Whatcom county Socialist con-

adopted the following:
Resolved, that this convention goes
on record as protesting against the

MARYSVILLE SHOWS
SPLENDID GROWTH.

Comrade Bruce Rogers addressed a
large and interested audience Monday
evening, February 8, at the Grand
theatre in Marysville, Wash. His sub
ject was "The Inability of the Capt.
talist System"
Comrade Rogers handled his subject
with ease. The audience showed its
appreciation of the speakers ability
by much applause.
The lecture resulted in great good
to the local organization.
The Marysville Socialist local is
growing by leaps and bounds.
We organized some two months ago
with eleven members, now we have
more than forty paid up members.
Thanks to Maynard Shipley and Bruce
Rogers for without their valuable as
sistance it would not have been pos
sible for this local to have achieved
the great success that it has. But let
me serve notice right here, and now,
that we are not going to stop at this.
The local comrades are very much
alive and awake to their class inter-
ests and are determined to do their
part in this great work of educating
and organizing the working class for
their emancipation.

SILVANA PREACHER TRIES
TO KILL SIMPLIFY LECTURE
BIGGEST Crowd Of Course Attends.

Biggest Crowd of Course Attends.
The village parson had spoken.
The Shipley "so-called science" lee
lures were n fraud and a deusion, to
say nothing of being contrary to re-
vealed truth"
Don't waste your precious time
listening to such irreligious sophistry
and false teachings. True scientists
don't teach evolution in that way.
Shipley is only a so-called scientist"
To the above effect the word of
wisdom had gone forth to kill the NE
hula to Man" lectures being given by
comrade Shipley under the auspices
of Local Silvana.
But alas! for his reverence. The
message had come too late. Many of
the flock, and the flockless, had al
ready heard three lectures of the
course and couldn't just agree with
his reverence.
So the hall last Friday evening was
damned to the doors, with an audi
ence more than pleased with comrade
Shipley's mastery discussion of the
question as Man Cousin to the Ape"
The wealth of pictures shown. their
surprising interest, and the plain yet
forceful language in which the argu-
ment was couched, left nothing to be
desired but more such instructive and
highly interesting lectures.
And the rest of the course has al
ready been arranged for. The date
of the next lecture of the series will
be announced next week

Lord of all being, throned afar,
Thy glory flames from sun and star;
Center and soul of every sphere,
Yet to each loving heart how near.
Sun of our life, thy quickening ray
Sheds on our path the glow OF day;
Star of our hope, thy softened light
Cheers the long watches Of the night.
Our midnight is thy smile withdrawn;
Our noontide is thy gracious dawn;
Our rainbow arch, thy mcrcy's sign;
All, save the clouds of sin, are thine.
Lord of all life, below, above,
Whose light is truth, whose warmth y
love,
Before thy yer-blazng throne
We ask no lustre Of our own.
Grant us thy truth to make us free,
And kindly hearts that burn for thee.
Till all thy living altars claim
One holy light, one heavenly flame.
